Irvine is an excellent physio - friendly, knowledgeable, and great to work with. He quickly diagnosed the issue I was dealing with and put together a clear, effective treatment plan. Thanks to his support, I’m back to running again. Highly recommend!”
Shad has been incredible at treating my long term knee problems. I came to him about 2 months ago after experiencing bilateral knee problems for almost 2 years. After seeing what feels like a hundred different physios, Shad has been able to get me back into the gym, moving without pain, and actually rebuilding my muscles that had atrophied from the previous guidance I always got from alternative physios - which was "to rest"... This progress is something I've not been able to achieve for so long, and it's changing my life. He's super knowledgeable and you can tell he really cares for his patients development. So many experienced physios have really outdated ideas and information whereas Shad is always adopting new philosophies and learning more to pass on this to his patients. I am truly grateful to him 🙏🏼
I visited Maximum Performance for my Knee pain, which was hindering my exercises and running. Irvine took the time to explain the root cause of the discomfort and gave me a clear plan to strengthen my knee. The exercises and the suggestions were easy and practical and I started to understand my knee better. And I amanged to run my first race (10k). I feel more confident now. Highly Recommend!!!
Having pulled my calf quite badly in April I was recommended maximum performance sports therapy to help with my recovery. That's where Iet the main man Irvine. Honestly a lovely guy with so much knowledge and most importantly from my point of view patience. Any questions or queries he's a phone call away and I'm so glad I used him. Cannot recommend highly enough and I feel great and stronger then ever. Thank you very much.
I cannot recommend Shad enough. I've been coming to the clinic since March 2025 due to issues with my knees and hips and I've seen a massive improvement. I've been able to start doing interval running which I've not done in a very long time. Shad is very personable and is awesome!
