Our Clients Say...

"I live in the UK and had been suffering with low back pain for about 6 months which left me barely able to walk and in severe pain. A trip to a UK physio had seemed to make it worse. Then in November 23 I visited my daughter in Abu Dhabi and she suggested I see her friend Primrose for a consultation. I was sceptical at first but I'm so glad I agreed... that visit has pretty well changed my life. After a thorough examination Primrose gave me some exercises to do and a plan moving forward, taking exercise slowly and incorporating swimming and walking. More than anything she gave me the confidence and positivity to do the things I'd become afraid of. During my time in Abu Dhabi I was able to swim every day and built up my walking with the result that now I'm back in the UK and almost back to where I was before my injury. I am so grateful to her and would happily recommend her to anyone needing physiotherapy. Her professionalism coupled with her natural warmth make her extremely approachable."
