I went to Simon with a persistent shoulder niggle. He was extremely informative and provided me with rehabilitation exercises to focus on and switch up my usual training to make room for what was necessary. I progressed back to the climbing wall while continuing to reduce the pain. I was then able to spend a surfing holiday pain free! Pleased with progress, and highly recommended.

Having a finger go bang the week before Christmas isn't ideal timing, especially three days before you travel home to see your family. Rise came well recommended by climbing friends and my regular physio, so I knew I'd be in good hands. They went above and beyond to get me booked in quickly for an ultrasound to confirm that status of my injury and were reassuring whilst laying out clear steps to recovery. Thanks George and Simon!

The the care that I have received from Rise has been excellent. Tyler has been positive, professional and importantly, clinical in diagnosing what has been wrong and assessing progress throughout the sessions I have had with him. The guidance as to what to do to treat the A2 injury and the capsulitus has been clear the whole way through. The follow up emails after every session have been really helpful as a reference too. As well as working on the rehab, I have appreciated things like the ideas on warm ups before climbing, the help to improve my crimp positions and his ability to listen to how I am feeling about the length of rehab and adjust things to keep me going. The positive approach throughout has been great and motivational on what has been a long slog to get back on the wall. My finger is so much stronger than it was. I have been very pleased with the care and support I have received and while I hope I don’t need to, if I am ever injured again I will be back. I’ll have already recommended Rise physiotherapy and Tyler to friends of mine that climb. A huge thank you!

I first went to see Simon as I had been experiencing some pain in my shoulder that had been present for a few months but had become much more intense a couple of months prior. The pain would keep me awake at night I couldnt lie on my right shoulder and i couldnt support my body weight on my arm to turn over in bed. I'd had an ultrasound scan that had suggested two small full thickness rotator cuff tears. Simon was very thorough in his examination and we started with some gentle rehab exercises. He suggested taking ibuprofen as a course, three times a day for 2-3 weeks as he felt the pain could be coming from an inflamed bursa. This was a game changer as it reduced the pain a lot and I could get some decent sleep again. He suggested that I see my GP and ask for a referral to the MSK interface team as an MRI scan would be good to determine whether I did have tears. If tears were present they would increase in size over time and it would be good to get them repaired whilst I was young enough for a good outcome - I'm 56. I am also a personal trainer and work in a gym so having two functioning shoulders is paramount for my job. I continued to see Simon for a couple more sessions and we progressed the rehab protocol. I have just had an NHS appointment with a consultant and next steps are MRI scan with some follow up treatment, depending on the outcome of the scan. I can't thank Simon enough for his advice and support, without which I would probably have given up and lived with a painful, sub par shoulder. Simon is very experienced and knowledgeable and I would 100% recommend.

I cannot recommend the team at Rise highly enough. Simon in particular did an amazing job getting me back to full climbing performance after a painful rotator cuff injury. With expert knowledge/diagnosis I was given a very individual, easy to follow programme, and exercises were adapted accordingly as my recovery progressed. I have seen him again for other climbing related injuries and I have been so pleased at how quickly I have returned to pre-injury ability after following each rehab programme. Thank you so much!
