I went to see Dan after I had been suffering with a painful lower back for a number of years. I went to various practitioners and couldn't get the improvement I desired. He quickly diagnosed my specific/unique injury and treated accordingly with tremendous knowledge and passion. I have been continuing to see him to strengthen my back with great success and I haven't experienced the same level of discomfort for a very long time. I would recommend Dan to anyone, very professional, a great man and great practitioner.

Dan is an extremely knowledgeable and personable therapist. I have had 3 separate knee surgeries and came to Dan with the worry of future surgery due to knee pain during sport. After a thorough set of checks and analysis, Dan put me at ease that everything was rectifiable without surgery.Dan breaks things down so that you feel completely aware of your situation and sets you clear goals to reverse your issues.I would recommend Dan to anyone looking for a professional and personable sports therapist.Thanks Dan!

I had a long-standing shoulder impingement on my dominant arm which persisted for over 2 years. I visited numerous physiotherapists, chiropractors etc who were unable to help me. It was a debilitating injury and prevented me from living a healthy lifestyle and I experienced discomfort doing basic things like dressing, showering, sleeping etc. All other practitioners said I had a tear, and needed an MRI scan. I was referred to Dan, and not only did he acutely understand the problem but he was evidently familiar and confident with its treatment. The road to recovery wasn’t easy, but under his guidance he stress-tested the shoulder weekly and I undertook to commit to daily exercises, and he even accompanied me to my gym where - under his guidance - I was able to lift heavy weights again, without any pain or imbalance. He categorically reassured me that it wasn’t a tear, and worked his magic by needling, cupping and massaging the area. I’ve now got a full range of movement in my arm/shoulder, and there’s now nothing that I cannot do in the gym. He’s a life saver, and I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Dan ! The Man The Myth The Legend!Ive been to a few physicians over the last three years following my chain of motorbike accidents. Recently feeling like a broken tool with shoulders, lower back and hip issues due to impact injuries.Loved my session with Dan, he had a very upbeat energetic and positive attitude with his god like healing hands!What i appreciated the most, Dan feeding me with information about by body, talking me through his process and what he is doing and what impact it has.Leaving my first session just four days ago, im feeling confident in his process and am fully informed on the session focused on, and most importantly what to expect over the next few days and what to do till our next session.Cant wait for our next session!Thankyou Dan!

Dan is a very thorough and professional sports therapist. He really takes the time to look into the causes of issues and will explore a variety of ways to deal with them. He is extremely knowledgeable and works hard to find a solution.He has a friendly, personable approach and I always feel at ease when having a treatment.

Delighted to have found Dan Jacobs who has managed to solve a 20 year old historic back problem for me. This also led him to sort out my stiff neck which I had sadly accepted to be a permanent fixture. He is now in the process of sorting out yet another historical problem on my knee which I assumed was destined for a knee operation. The exercises Dan has given me have been very beneficial and I have also been very impressed that throughout my treatment he has liaised with my personal trainer to discuss my issues with him. Thank you Dan!

In a relatively short amount of time Dan helped me go from having chronic pain from a shoulder impingement, to now being pain free.Extremely professional and a genuine, friendly guy, I would not hesitate to recommend Dan to anyone suffering from injury or chronic pain.Well worth seeking out.

Highly recommend. Dan was great, very professional and knowledgable. I’ve been having some issues with my back and shoulder which is now on the mend thanks to Dan. During COVID he’s been doing home visits, which makes things nice and easy. If you are looking for a physio I couldn’t recommend more.

I recieved treatment from Dan while on holiday in Bristol. With no high level physiotherapists in my home city I was keen to have someone of his standard take a look at my back which has been giving me constant grief since I injured it lifting weights six months prior.Not only did I receive extremely professional support before, during and after treatment, I'm extatic to say I'm pain free and can lift heavy again without any pain during or after. It's been six months I've had at least a dull pain in my back but I no longer feel anything day to day.I'm a high level strength athlete, a S&C coach and gym owner and I was very impressed with the amount of knowledge Dan showed and I would trust him to give me advice and treatment in the future. 10/10 - very professional and talented.

I had a persistent long term shoulder issue and after treatments with Dan it has been sorted. It's a shame I'm moving away as it is hard to find a good therapist like Dan! I have reccomend him to my local friends and family in the past and I would reccomend anyone in Bristol to go see him.
