Thanks Pogo Physio! I've had an excellent outcome from my sessions with you. All the staff, from Michael the physio, Sato the massage therapist and Matt at reception were wonderful. Well trained, friendly and professional. I cannot thank you all enough. Together they have got me moving pain free. Their program works!

Pogo physio has not only helped me get out of pain but has helped me become a better, happier runner. As soon as you walk through the door you feel welcome and after my first session with Brad I had no doubts he would get me back to my best . I couldn't recommend the practise more :-).

I have been going to pogo for 2 years now. Brad and the whole team make every visit there so pleasant. Needless to say my injuries are now easily manageable with a great plan set up to suit my specific needs. I would highly recommend pogo physio.

Not only the best in the business in regards to diagnosing and treating injuries but have created and built up over time a very rare form of community and environment that makes you feel welcomed, valued and overall like you apart of something bigger than just getting treatment on an injury. I enjoy myself every time I walk into POGO!

I have seen Brad twice now and he is absolutely fantastic. He is incredibly thorough in his assessment, diagnosis and explaination of both the injury and the process of rehab. Couldn’t recommend him highly enough. The pogo practice also has absolutely everything a runner could want for their rehab process. No stones are left unturned in their pursuit for their patients physical best. From the moment you walk through the door, the team make you feel very welcome and comfortable.
