Based at The Royal Hospital Chelsea
I like working with weekend warriors who have injured themselves or are training in pain by accurately diagnosing their problem then tailoring a treatment programme with them, in both our gym and hydro-pool, so they can achieve their personal best in their favorite sport

Customer Reviews
I cannot recommend Ali highly enough. I first came to her with a persistent and incapacitating problem for which I had seen many physios in the previous 2 years – all to no avail. By the end of 2 sessions with Ali, not only did I know properly for the first time what had been wrong, but I was virtually fully restored, walking without pain and back on the tennis court. I was so impressed that I recommended Ali to my wife, who is now being treated by her with similar success. My wife has seen many physios in the past and, like me, regards Ali as the best she’s had. We are both professionals ourselves, and we appreciate Ali’s clear, friendly, efficient and professional approach. She is simply extremely effective, and in my view there can be no higher accolade than that.
