I was having low grade persistent ear pain for more than 6 months and was worried I was losing my hearing. After a hearing test giving good results I went to see an ENT who said my ears were fine and I was suffering from TMJ.
After one session with Regan, she identified the source of pain and had a plan for me.
After the second session my pain was markedly reduced through exercises, manipulation and massage.
After a course of 5 sessions, I now have no residual ear pain, have a plan for ensuring it doesn’t reoccur and she even helped me with pain I had going down my left arm that was causing me a lot of discomfort and was linked to everything going on with the left side of my arm, shoulder, neck, jaw and head.
I would highly recommend Regan and I can’t thank her enough as I was getting resigned to living with the pain prior to treatment with her.

I was in considerable jaw pain as a result of TMJ disorder. Recommended to Regan by a friend, I cannot praise her too highly. She was sympathetic, conscientious and skilful, providing expert treatment and advice - far more than had been offered by an Oral and Maxillofacial surgeon I had previously consulted at great expense. As a result, I am now pain free. Thank you Regan!

I started seeing Regan after suffering a herniated disc that caused severe pain in my leg and buttock. She is extremely knowledgeable and friendly, and her treatment plan has made a real difference to my recovery.
The stretches and massage therapy were particularly effective in relieving pain, and she always takes the time to listen and provide helpful advice for how to continue the treatment at home.
I really appreciate how she builds genuine relationships and makes you feel supported throughout the recovery process.
I would highly recommend her, she's absolutely fab!

Regan is absolutely fantastic; she has helped me with TMJ jaw pain and related neck issues. A year ago I displaced the disc in my jaw causing lock jaw/limited opening. Regan treated me and supported me to gain confidence with eating a full variety of foods again and significantly reduced my pain. She has a great holistic approach to treatment, looking beyond the pain point and supporting you with advice for long term health & wellbeing. Would thoroughly recommend.

I went to see Regan for rehab following lower back spinal surgery as I had lost strength in my legs. After an MRI scan of my upper spine, the recommendation had been physio to try and help pain I was suffering in my shoulder area, as well as loss of feeling in my feet and my hands. This was complicated by old injuries to both shoulders (separately).

What impressed me most about Regan was not just identifying the right exercises needed, but also to recognise - and admit to - what could not realistically be corrected by physiotherapy alone. She really encouraged me to get my GP to refer me on to both a neurosurgeon to deal with the current shoulder pain and loss of feeling in extremities, an orthopaedic surgeon to see what could be done for the old shoulder injuries, and a hand therapist as I was also suffering muscle wastage in part of one hand. She wrote an extensive letter to my GP which had the desired effect and referrals are currently in hand. I would probably not have approached my GP in the same manner without her pushing me a bit and her very professional letter.

I was suffering with what felt like tension headaches for around 3 months and had tried a few different approaches including osteopathy and reiki before coming across thrive physiotherapy online. Regan was so helpful and supportive from the offset, taking the time to understand what could possibly be causing my headache and trying to find the root cause instead of a short term fix. She asked questions about lifestyle, diet, work, stress factors etc to better understand me as a person and then before doing any hands on work, she took the time to try different movements that could potentially spur my headache on so she could understand what was causing it. She gave me some gentle exercises to do at home which helped and asked me to keep an eye on any triggers. We discovered the issue was in my back so she preceded with some fascia release which has greatly helped my headaches, reducing them from around 80-90% severity to around 20% now. We’re still working together to continue to reduce my symptoms but Regan has been a delight to work with. I’d recommend her to anyone with similar symptoms or for physiotherapy in general!

Meric Mehmet (June 2026) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Regan has been such a great physio. What I think is so great about her is that she actually takes the time to listen to what's going on. I've had a few complicated injuries and she's gone through everything step by step to make sure nothing is missed. I really appreciate her understanding that injuries are not just about the physical component but she looks at things holistically and considers the emotional aspect of things too. She's probably one of the first physios that have actually given me helpful exercises. Not just "here's a piece of paper go do this style that I have had before", but she actually gets me to do them and videos me. Talks me through what I need to do so I do them right on my own. I would highly recommend Regan, she is a kind, gentle (but has also gives painful massages when needed!!) and knowledgeable physio.

Liz O (June 2026) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I started seeing Regan 4 months post partum with my second child. I had fairly bad back/leg nerve type pain and Regan has helped me so much, from the first visit my pain improved significantly. We are working to help my ab separation and get stronger generally after birth. I have found her very knowledgable and approachable and would definitely recommend her to others in a similar position.

Lizzy K (May 2026) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Regan is brilliant. She knows how to get to the bottom of your issue and explore every possible solution. She helps you understand the issue and be able to apply techniques to ensure long term solutions. I would highly reccomend her.

Kaye G (Mar 2026)⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Regan is a great physio. She listened carefully to understand my symptoms and provided targeted support that helped my recovery quickly.

Adrian B (Mar 2026) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Regan undertook a thorough assessment and totally understood my needs. She gave me a really good massage which helped ease my back pain, and prescribed some exercises specifically designed to increase flexibility in my back.

Mo M (Jan 2026) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Regan is a credit to her profession, having helped my teenage son through a recent hamstring injury. Throughout the treatment she gained his trust and he could feel week on week the recovery progression working, through strengthening excercises with video examples & periodic reviews.
He had a really positive experience and is now back playing the sport he loves! Thank you Regan!
We're confident to recommend Thrive Physiotherapy.

James H (Dec 2025) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Following a decades old injury, mobility of my shoulder became seriously impaired and the ongoing background pain worsened. Having had several sessions with Regan, after intensive joint massage, mobilizing exercises and muscle building regimes, the pain has gone and mobility increased. Regan brings years of experience, expertise, practicality and empathy and her meticulous note taking ensures that the journey to recovery is as rapid as can be hoped. I would highly recommend.

James H (Dec 2025) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Regan provided conscientious and helpful treatment for Plantar Fasciitis. Definitely recommended.

Stephen T (Nov 2025) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Have been seeing Regan for a few weeks now due to Tendonitis in my achilles. She has been brilliant offering a range of exercises and treatments to reduce the discomfort. Mainly acupuncture, not being a fan of needles myself, i was apprehensive on this, but it has been brilliant and worked wonders.

Andy W (Nov 2025) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I am receiving treatment from Regan for TMJ pain. From the start she took time to understand what was going on and how it was affecting me. Through a combination of hands-on treatment as well as exercises that I can do at home, my jaw pain has improved.
Regan has a very calm and compassionate manner and is very knowledgeable. I have no hesitation in recommending her.

Lorraine G (Sept 2025) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I was recommended to see Regan after I sustained a kick by a horse to my jaw which resulted in TMJ pain and limited jaw movement. Regan was brilliant at reducing the pain and soreness within the muscles around the jaw whilst increasing the joint mobility. After just three sessions the pain in my jaw was almost non existent and the amount I could open my jaw had doubled.

I would highly recommend Regan for anyone looking for a physio, especially if they are experiencing any TMJ issues.

Harriet O (Sept 2025) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Having had a painful back for as long as I can remember and had it "crunched and cracked" - nothing ever worked for long. 4 sessions with Regan and OMG! I have been pain free for the first consistent period of time in years! It also seemed working on the front of my hip, rather than solely on my back was the key to unlock the improvement. I cannot recommend Regan and Thrive enough. Thinking outside the box and targeting other areas which were evidently the primary issue has been revolutionary.
If you've had issues this is one of the best places to start for a pain free life!

Rick F (Sept 2025) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Honestly I couldn't believe the difference in my hip movement and reduction in pain level within just one appointment. The strengthening exercises and detailed explanations have made such a difference to recovery. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Regan.

Rachel D (May 2025) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I had been suffering with severe ear pain for a few months before an ENT specialist told me that it was TMJ disorder – so it was my jaw causing the pain in my ear. The specialist recommended finding a TMJ specialist physio, which was when I came across Regan.

Knowing very little about TMJ disorder in our first interaction I was instantly put at ease by how she asked me lots of questions and really listened to my responses to determine how she could best treat me.

Her treatment – combined with regularly doing the recommended exercises – has significantly reduced my jaw pain. Throughout the treatment she has continued to check in with me on my symptoms and what the impacts of her treatment have been. I've really valued this tailored approach – which I definitely feel has bought faster and better results. So I'd recommend Regan to anyone with TMJ disorder.

Nick Green (March 2025) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I recently had the pleasure of working with Regan after getting my air cast boot off after dislocating my ankle. From the very first session, she was incredibly warm, approachable, and supportive—always taking the time to listen to my concerns and tailor her approach to my specific needs. Her expertise was evident in the customised exercises she taught me, many of which were far more effective than the standard routines you might find online.
What really impressed me was her commitment to getting me back on my feet as quickly and safely as possible, while still maintaining a compassionate attitude and positive energy during each session. Thanks to Regan, I’m now back to running, kickboxing and enjoying the activities I feared I might have to give up. If you’re looking for a physiotherapist who genuinely cares about your progress and delivers fast, lasting results, I can’t recommend her enough!

Kat Booth (Jan 2025) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

A hand/wrist injury and also a painful shoulder were limiting my movement. Both issues were resolved through Regan's obvious experience, skill and patience. Her holistic approach also indentified other areas to work on at home. A talented and friendly person who I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Christine B (Nov 2024) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Highly recommend Regan at Thrive Physiotherapy, Regan really helped me when I picked up a shoulder injury and has also provided relief from my jaw pain. Clearly passionate and of expertise in her field. Will be back!

Georgia G (Sept 2024) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I went to see Regan following issues with TMJ joint in my jaw which was incredibly painful, Regan takes a very holistic approach to treatment and really took the time to understand my medical history and lifestyle. After through treatment with Regan, I am happy to say my condition has recovered and thanks to her recommendations I now have a clear preventative plan.

Darren K (May 2024) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Delighted to have found Regan. Love her holistic approach which concentrates on general well-being as much as dealing with the problem. She is very caring and considerate and understood my particular needs/concerns.
In just one simple manoeuvre she relieved my BPPV which had been hanging around for weeks - she even brought her physio bed to my house for the procedure!
Regan has also been a great help with exercises and advice for a back injury. She inspires confidence and I feel that she is definitely a 'safe pair of hands'. I can't recommend her enough.

Christine H (Jan 2024) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Regan quickly established the root cause of my hip problem which stopped me running. She put together a comprehensive and varied rehab program tailored to my preferences and injury requirements. We worked together to enable me to restart running and progressively increase training load in a structured manner. Throughout the recovery process, Regan was keen to listen to my feedback and adapt my recovery plan accordingly. I’m really pleased to have found such a knowledgeable and skilled physiotherapist.
