What Our Clients Say
Chris has been brilliant. His knowledge and his approach to teaching techniques that build strength have made a huge difference to the problems I was having. I would highly recommend him to anyone that requires treatment.
I didn’t realise how much physio could help me. Chris not only eased my back pain, but also helped improve my overall training and form. He is informative, knowledgeable and so friendly — I always feel at ease and look forward to going.
Chris helped my 13-year-old son with his hip issues and got him back to playing football. He puts him at ease, makes him laugh, and explains things in a way he understands. I highly recommend Chris.
I can’t recommend Chris highly enough. After struggling with back pain, his knowledge and hands-on approach got me pain-free and back training confidently in the gym. He explained everything clearly, tailored the rehab to my goals, and genuinely cared about my progress.
Chris took the time to really understand what was going on rather than just treating the symptoms. He’s helped me make progress with a long-standing knee issue and put a clear plan in place. I’ve felt completely confident in his approach throughout.
Chris did a fantastic job on my shoulder and whiplash. He freed up a lot of knots and tension with a polite, professional manner and a good sense of humour. I would recommend him to anyone.
Excellent treatment from Chris — he takes the time to really understand and discover the root cause, rather than just treating the symptoms. Highly recommend.
After a few sessions with Chris, I’ve had a significant reduction in knee pain and can now walk up and down stairs again without discomfort. He’s professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely wants to help me get back to running without pain.

Chris Heslam
Physiotherapist
BSc (Hons), MCSP
Normanton, Ackworth, Pudsey, Hull
I'm Chris, from Sheffield, and I mainly work across our Wakefield clinics!
My background has been in rugby predominantly and I've played to a high level including stints for Leicester Tigers and Notts, Lincs & Derbyshire on a county level.
Since stopping rugby I've become all things strength training obsessed, dabbling in the likes of strongman and powerlifting with the aim of earning the 'Worlds Strongest Dad' title while trying to keep up some hiking, wild swimming and trail running. My rehabilitation experience spans across complex poly-trauma through to treating high level athletes and to those wanting to work on their health, strength and ability to live a fulfilling life that fills their cup!
When I'm not working or training you'll find me half way up a mountain or on a lake with my wife and son!
What clients say
- “Life-changing progress”
- Uses explanations and metaphors that finally make things clear
- Outstanding with serious / long-term injuries (knees, plantar fasciitis, fractures)
- Kind, patient, and genuinely invested in improvement
Reputation: complex rehab leader; one of the highest-impact clinicians in the whole network.
"Chris was amazing. I always enjoy seeing new practitioners to get a better insight into my chronic pain. Chris taught me some great new things that no one had explained to me before, particularly about hypermobility. 10/10 recommend."
Sophie Crowley
Physiotherapist
BSc (Hons), MCSP
Ackworth, Castleford, Normanton, Rotherham
Hi I’m Sophie - I’m a physio working in our Castleford, Ackworth & Rotherham clinics.
I grew up in Somerset and, started my training in Cardiff before moving to finish in Sheffield (slowly making my way further North)…
In my spare time I love trail running, and use every opportunity I can to work on races to learn from the best (and use it as a cheeky excuse for a holiday)! I’ve crewed runners through UTMB, Ultra X, and am currently looking to plan my own races at UTS and Slovenia 110km next year.
I love getting outside, so I really appreciate how much an injury can set you back from doing the things you love & really start to effect your mental health. I work with everyone of all ages and lifestyles, just hoping to get you the life you want to live (even if that’s better than it was pre-injury). If you have any questions, or aren’t sure if physio is for you - please reach out & we’ll see how we can point you in the right direction.
What clients say
- Amazing with older adults and mobility issues
- Kind, professional, warm
- Helps people stand, walk and regain confidence
- Families regularly leave emotional, grateful reviews
Reputation: compassionate rehab specialist; phenomenal with complex personal cases.
"Friendly, experienced and knowledgeable. Honestly, I think Sophie must know everything about all muscles and what to do with them!! Couldn't be more pleased with the service and treatment 😊"
