Hawkes Physiotherapy

Matt is an extremely knowledgeable physiotherapist! He took a lot of time to listen to my running injuries and has provided a comprehensive list of exercises to strengthen and prevent further injury. He explains the science behind everything very clearly and concisely! Excellent and professional service, keep up the great work Matt!

Matt is just brilliant! His knowledge is the best I have come across, having played high level sport over the years and my children now in high performance pathways in 2 different sports, I know a decent physio to an average one, Matt is exceptional. I have since recommended Matt recently to 2 other top performance athletes who are going to travel to see him, I followed Matt from his previous workplace to his own business location now, the follow up email on strengthening exercises have also been invaluable, his passion to get you back on track is invaluable.

I have experienced neck pain for years and taken ibuprofen to manage it and the associated headaches. After I developed what felt like a trapped nerve, I looked into physio to see if that could help resolve it and give me movement back.From the very first session Matt provided practical advice and exercises to try. He took the time to listen to the problem and explain the treatment he’d recommend and why.After the first session and at home exercises, I could turn my head and was more comfortable! After a couple of sessions, my neck pain was significantly improved and am no longer taking painkillers (which is huge!!). I hoped to relieve the trapped nerve pain, but ended up improving the pain I’ve had for years.Matt is very professional and knowledgable - he made me feel at ease from the first session. He also talks about the science behind the treatment and also other things to consider based on studies. Would definitely recommend anyone considering it to book an initial appointment and see how he can help. 10/10

Very happy with Matts professionalism and punctuality. Physio and Chiropractic can help enormously with lower spine, neck vertebrae and posture to save having weeks off work or pain. In my manual job this is priceless. Highly recommended. Matthew accommodated me at Stoke on my second session after the travelling to Talke studio was too far from my home.

Matt is amazing. He has treated all our family for differing sports injuries. He has always delivered 1st class care and sorted us all out. His knowledge is vast and I 100% trust his advice and diagnosis.

My son and I went to see Matt when my sons shoulder persistently began to hurt at various times during swimming training / regional competitions.Our initial consultation was outstanding. His knowledge and understanding was exceptional. He assessed my sons upper body strength and gave us clear advice and exercises to do at home to strengthen my son’s shoulders and in turn preventing further injury. My son found the stretches easy to follow as Matt sent us clear online videos of each stretch and instruction of the appropriate strength level and repetition of each exercise.We will definitely be using Matt in the foreseeable future with my sons swim journey. Any parent who has children training at a high level of any sport I would definitely recommend Matt!Thanks Matt

I was struggling with an issue with my knees and decided I should try a Physiotherapy route to see if that would help. I currently go to samien fitness in Stoke and Matt has a clinic within the gym. After getting in contact with him he got me in very fast.I was mega impressed with Matts knowledge of Physiotherapy and how he goes about his work. First he diagnosed my issues and helped me understand firstly why it was there and secondly how to start to fix the issues. The treatment Matt have had a huge effect and reduced the pain and length of pain periods of about 95% percent. I decided to book back in for another session just to see if I can eliminate the remaining 5 percent. I am extremely confident with the help and guidance I’ve been given that my problem will get better however if it does re occur I’ll be booking straight back in and going nowhere elseThanks Matt for your time, effort and outstanding knowledge.

I've been going to Matt now for just over 3 months, during this time the exercises and advice he's provided me has dramatically improved my quality of life.He takes the time to understand the issue and then discusses the best approach before recommending the next stages, he explains why and how the body reacts in a easy to understand manner.Session are easy to book and flexible, offering time slots in and out of office hours - a godsend when you're out and about between home and work offices.

I cannot rate Hawks highly enough. I had an issue with my hip and could hardly walk. After diagnosis the issue was my back. Therapy started immediately, and after returning three more times I was fixed. The exercise worked, the treatment and acupuncture worked and now I am better than ever. I almost felt it was miraculous from the time I arrived. Matthew is a great guy he to all's you through and guides as well as the Physio, I would say the experience is fantastic. If you're injured or need someone to talk to about a situation you need to give them a call. Great job was done and I would ok d go back in a heartbeat.

I have been treated by Mathew Hawkes, Physiotherapist for many years and I 100% recommend him. Matt is an amazing, very experienced and very knowledgeable Physiotherapist and Acupuncturist and he has treated me and helped me overcome many conditions over the years. He is very kind and friendly and goes out of his way to do everything possible to make you well again. His practice is a lovely comfortable, spotlessly clean environment to be treated in. Thank you so much for everything Matt. I always recommend you as I know from my own experience that you can always help.
