Bruntsfield Physiotherapy and Sports Medicine Clinic

My sister who is recieving the excellent services at Bruntsfield Phisio recommended Shona to me, Shona has been helping with my recovery from a car accident which left me with a whiplash injurie to my spine,Shona has been professional and clear with my exercise routine and is helping to alleviate some of the pain in my neck and back although I am not yet back to my usual exercise routine I feel better by the day thanks to the great care she has taken of me. Highly recommended!

Shona is brilliant! She has assessed and treated my back twice in a very kind and professional way. I was in a lot of pain with a slipped disc the second time I saw Shona. She provided acupuncture for relief and lots of advice on how to recover. When returning to work, she also provided a phased plan of return, which also aided my recovery. All in all, I highly recommend her. Shona provides a sympathetic ear whilst tailoring her extensive physio experience & knowledge to aid recovery.

I highly recommend this physiotherapy practice in Bruntsfield. Shona provided a thorough treatment plan to my neck and shoulder, including acupuncture. Her professionalism was evident and tailored to my specific needs.

I had an appointment with Stef Dimartino and in just 30 mins he immediately diagnosed and gave me steps which quickly fixed my peroneal tendonitis. I gave him the tough task of getting me from extreme pain to up and skiing in 2 weeks and he took the problem on with a big smile and did a fantastic job. I loved how he also engaged in my queries about the exercises I was being given by showing me recent research. Best of all, despite his busy schedule he allowed me to use the full 30 minutes, despite solving the problem in 20. In the last 10 minutes I asked him about tips and tricks for managing future physio problems I may face as my family has a history of back and knee problems, and he happily gave me some great exercises and tips to keen an eye on those possible problems. I cannot thank him enough as I just got back from my great ski trip, pain free and if I ever have a physio injury in Edinburgh again, I know where I’m booking myself in and who with. You can’t go wrong with Mr Dimartino. - I also must add how kind the receptionist was as even though I had already paid the £55 for an adult price, she stopped me when she heard I was a student and immediately hassle free issued me the £5 off that students normally receive.

I’ve been seeing Shona at Bruntsfield Physiotherapy and Sports Medicine Clinic now for a few years. Shona has helped me manage my hip osteoarthritis - I’m currently trying to put of a hip replacement as long as I can! The exercise plan she did helps me maintain my mobility and reduce pain. She also sorted a shoulder RSI from bad posture remote working and an Achilles strain. I can’t recommend her highly enough. All the staff at the practice are super friendly and efficient. Their receipts make it easy to claim on health care insurance too.

Have been getting treatment from Shona for over a year now. Has been very supportive and friendly throughout my injury and during surgery recovery. All the staff are very kind and welcoming! Could not recommend this physiotherapy more to anyone.

Shona at Bruntsfield has been absolutely fantastic, she provided a thorough and comprehensive assessment at our first appointment and came up with a treatment plan. Her attention to detail and professionalism were evident as she took the time to listen to my concerns and understand my specific needs. She is warm, friendly and makes you feel at ease. I highly recommend this practice.

This is a very professional and kind work place that’s provide the best quality treatments. I had runner knee for 8 months that just got worse and worse, I finally decided to do something about it and went here to sort it out. And only 1 and a half months later I just ran 7km in 37:21 minutes. (Not as fast as I used to be) But it felt great to get back out there running again, getting to do what I missed for so long. I highly recommend this practice for anyone who has any problems :)

I had torn my quad badly playing football and visited the Bruntsfield practice for a group of sessions with Danielle. She was great and provided good at home exercises to strengthen my leg. My injury healed quick and she provided me solid stretches to prevent it happening again. I’ve tested a few physios and this has by far been the best!

I had an inflamed Achilles tendon which I foolishly ignored for months before getting treatment. The team at Bruntsfield were amazing. First Eric the podiatrist instantly realized I needed special insoles for both feet, and with his help my walking and pain got much better. Then I went to the physiotherapy for the shockwave treatment. It took a while to kick in, but Danielle my physio was amazing and so supportive. They were all very up front and honest about how much I would need and the prices, trying to save me money while ensuring I got what would really help. They know their stuff and are very friendly and welcoming. And now I can walk long distances again and have a manageable exercise regimen to prevent a relapse. Thank you so much, guys!
