"Incredible team, I’ve been going to LV for 6/7 months now, they’ve made me achieve my goals and beyond after suffering a stroke I lost all movement in my left side. Thanks to roberto and other team members I’m walking unaided and now focusing on my hand and arm. Every week I discover a new ability that I never thought I’d ever be able to do again. I’ll forever be thankful to LV and the team for giving me my life back."

"LV rehab has been a warm and welcoming place to attend righ from the word go. Fresh out of hospital after a stroke I was left facing a very different looking world but Vicky and her team couldn't have been more accomodating and friendly. From session 1 I knew I had might the right choice for my recovery."

"Vicky and the team at LV Rehabilitation have been and are the most wonderful blend of professionalism, skill and kindness. Diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease, they have helped me take on the challenge of regaining lost movement and have given me the motivation to keep going. I believe that they are a very unique team, so full of enthusiasm and practical help and encouragement. They have helped me more than I can say and I cannot recommend them enough!"

"I’ve been going here every week for the last three years. Vicky Knight, who treats me is inspiring, encouraging and has improved my balance and core strength, she gives me the confidence to try new things to help me with my disability. The physiotherapists work with empathy and I always feel that I get the best from my sessions. The air conditioning, delicious cakes and coffee make it a lovely experience. I would recommend LV rehab to anyone."
