I have enjoyed a good deal of help from Perfect Balance who are assisting me with my Chronic condition. Stephen as the first Practitioner I saw was thorough, helpful and very Professional. After my first treatment with him I saw Kal for soft tissue therapy, massage and after several sessions I can say he has been professional, pleasant and effective and given me considerable help. I am also getting help from Marsh with Rehab. Again an interested, well focussed and professional approach. Whether we can find the ultimate answer to my issues or not, I am confident of professional and effective help from these practitioners towards my ultimate health and fitness goals.read more

After having shoulder pain and tightness for long time it was a relief when Aaron Trim was able to diagnose the issue quickly by listening to my symptoms.
I had several sessions with Aaron, who was able to relieve the immediate symptoms and suggested ongoing exercises to prevent the injury reoccurring.
Great team at Perfect Balance and I would definitely recommend them for anyone looking for rehabilitation or anyone with undiagnosed sports injuries.read more

I am a professional dancer who came to PB with an old hip problem causing me pain. It turned out I'd partially tore the tendon. With the help of Physio Therapy, Sports Therapy and Nutrition analysis and advice my hip is definitely on the mend and I'm sure this time for good! I feel the communication between staff members, services and direction from the practitioners was fantastic. Stephen for his treatment, Aaron for Sports Therapy and Sergio for Nutrition all worked really well together. If you're in need of a physio and want to tackle your injury from every direction PB is the place to go.read more

I went for a sports massage with Matt Pollard, particularly needing help with a troublesome frozen shoulder. So far I have seen Matt four times, and he's really helped "unfreeze" the shoulder with his techniques. It's almost back to normal now. Matt goes the extra mile to not only provide a great service but also to explain his techniques. Thanks Matt!read more

Had a series of appointments with Aaron at Perfect Balance after suffering with chronic lower back pain with a herniated disc. Immediately felt my back improve after only one session and progressed steadily throughout my treatment. My exercise plan between sessions was challenging and was key for me to understand how to prevent injury when I returned to playing football.read more

Had an appointment with a physician and sports tapes were applied. One strip was applied far too tight which pulled the top layer of my skin that has left a scar. Went in to advise them of what happened and was promised a call back once they looked into it. No call back, they didn’t care at all.read more

I've now had 4 sports massages with Mat Pollard, all targeting different areas and issues which materialise through my marathon training and fitness coaching. I can't speak more highly of him...he is an absolute legend! I'm totally inspired by his knowledge and ability to work out where the routes of my problems come from each time and I'm loving learning so much more about the human body whilst he treats me! Thanks Mat!read more

After many years of chronic back pain, and passing from one specialist to another, I was recommended to Stephen Makinde. I cannot praise him more highly ... He is very knowledgeable and a real professional ... He has helped me back to a more healthy and pain free life.
I've seen other members of the Perfect Balance team for other problems over the years. Each and every one of them is a dedicated professional, who take the time to establish the cause of the problem and work with the patient to aid recovery.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Perfect Balance Clinic team.read more

After having a biking accident, I was left in a neck collar for a while. However, the pain never really abated, and that was when I was put in touch with Perfect Balance Clinic. My impression of the set-up right from the start has only been exceptionally great, far exceeding any experience with other osteopaths. Initially, I saw Andrew, who was very understanding of the issues. He helped progress me massively - his whole aim was to get me better so that I wouldn't have to return to the clinic. When I hit a plateau, he did the professional thing of transferring me to Lucy Georgiou for a second opinion. I have been seeing Lucy ever since, and the ongoing difference she has made is unbelievable. She is always so ready to explain what is going on with my back and neck, so that I understand exactly what it is that she is treating. Lucy is always professional and personable. My whole experience here has been outstanding, and that is why I have recommended many of my friends and family.read more

Having been to various GPs, Consultants and Physio Therapists, the painin my neck and shoulder and lower back from an old injury never seemed to go away, The GPs prescribed more and more pain killers telling me I “just had to live with it”, and it was my age. Fast forward 10+ years and treatment from Stephen at Hatfield over those years the pain is fine, I am still able to play sports and keep reasonably healthy (even after a heart attack) and two year later CABG surgery , The pain comes back now and then but nothing like it used to be, and I can still live my life – Moves to various parts of the country and different Osteopaths had me driving from Scotland to Hatfield to receive treatment as only Stephen seem to get to the problem quickly and efficiently solved ( A bit over the top maybe) but living pain free is a great thing! I still have treatment at Hatfield having moved back into the area, and also have taken advice from Stephen which has helped me a great deal. A big thank you Stephen and the Team for your excellent service, care and attention keeping this 75 year old activeread more

I had my first personal training session with Phil, it was amazing! Phil really took the time to set realistic goals with me, talk through my diet plan, find out what exercises I enjoyed doing, what I wanted to learn to do and tailored the session to meet my individual needs. Phil was great, he ensured that I felt comfortable, whilst also encouraging me to push myself that little bit harder.
I will definitely be having more sessions with Phil!read more

I will certainly be recommending him and Perfect Balance Clinic to others. I definitely give Perfect Balance 5 stars, great value for money 🙂 read more

Following a motorcycle accident in Italy last June I suffered a broken ankle, was flown home and remained in cast for six weeks. As an avid gym goer, fitness enthusiast and workaholic, my concern was not about the accident but about getting back on my feet and not having any ongoing issues that would stop me doing what I love doing; you can imagine therefore my grief when I suffered complications when the cast was removed! I had no hesitation in calling Perfect Balance who quickly diagnosed the issue and worked closely with me, over a period of time, to get me back on track . . . . following each treatment I received I did exactly what I was told in the gym and haven’t looked back! Their personable, professional and extremely knowledgeable staff are second to none and I trust them implicitly with my well-being (and that of my family and friends to whom I have recommended their services over and over) which is why I haven’t and won’t go anywhere else. My thanks, on this occasion, go especially to Stephen and Ulla – my testament to them is that I’ve signed up to trek Iceland this year for charity; I wouldn’t be doing that with a dodgy ankle!

I’ve just seen Daine for a back injury roughly 6mo after he resolved my neck issue. Daine literally works magic. He is professsional and amiable every time I see him and I’ve never had such good care. I could barely walk into the office and was in a massively amout of pain. 45 VERY vigorous minutes later, I walked out feeling thousands of times better with a stretching plan and follow-up appointment. I can’t recommend him and PBC highly enough. I’m a client for life!!read more

Very professional team at Perfect Balance Clinic. They are truly here to help you resolve whatever issue you may have in the quickest but most thorough way possible.
I used to suffer from intense pain every moment of my day and this has been reduced so much with the help of the osteo and physio sessions at this clinic.
They’re a very understanding team and very kind and a good reception team too- I’ve never had any issues with booking or cancelling appointments.
I would definitely recommend PBC! Book a session, it is well worth it.read more

This summer I suffered a broken collarbone after a cycling accident and I began treatment with Einav five weeks later. I felt she did a great job at understanding my goals and recovery expectations, particularly with relevance to my desire to resume playing basketball. The rehab programme that Einav developed for me felt well-balanced -- exercises were both simple and challenging at times. I appreciated her thorough responses to any questions I had as well as her positive outlook. I would definitely recommend working with Einav and won't hesitate to reach out for further appts if required.read more

I have been receiving treatment from VJ and more recently Julia from perfect balance for a back and shoulder issue. Both from the beginning have been excellent.
I was extremely impressed with their speed of identifying the issues with my injury as it was not sports related and the recommendations they both offered for alleviating my injury outside of the treatment room.
Julia in particular has been excellent in guiding on what to do in relation to stretches and changes to make in my day to day activities.
I would highly recommend Perfect Balance.read more

I contacted Perfect Balance Clinic with a groin injury. I was delighted that Einav saw me within one day. She collected information on my training, determined the injury cause and proposed treatment and exercises. She understood my training goals and worked towards fastest recovery route in order to achieve these.
All appointments were always very efficient and punctual but at the same time allowing sufficient time to answer all my questions in depth.
I would definitely recommend Perfect Balance Clinic and Einav. read more

I saw Einav when I was in London on holiday and needed a physio for an unexpected injury. She was absolutely fantastic. She was thorough in her examination, proactively explained what was happening and was very clear in answering all of my questions. She even gave me her email to follow up if I had any additional questions. The treatment was also great - I felt much looser after the session. I would definitely recommend seeing Einav if you need a physio in London!read more

I have used various services at Perfect Balance Clinic for over three years on and off for a variety of issues as I have been training and picking up injuries, as well as rehab work that needed doing. I have found them to be very professional, as you would expect, however the really interesting thing is their flexibility. They are always able to see me at short notice and fit me in and secondly they are very quickly able to identify the issue I have and use a variety of techniques, which doesn’t limit them to one course of action.
Over many years I have used a variety of therapists and am now confident that whenever I have a problem they are just a phone call away and are able to help quickly.read more
