Was recommended this place by my doctor and it was a really pleasant experience with physiotherapist Yinjie and podiatrist Jialin. Highly recommend this place to others!
Xuan Kai was my physiotherapist. He first try to understand my issues, explain his diagnosis & approach, & made sure I understood them. He was very thorough throughout the treatment. The staff are also very supportive. They tried to accommodate all my “last minute” change of appointments. Overall, it was an excellent experience for me.
Had a good experience with both the physiotherapists and counter staff at Physio & Sole Clinic. Physiotherapists were always patient & caring in attending to my issues, and updated recommended exercises based on latest developments. Counter staff were friendly, supportive & very responsive to any enquiries via call or WhatsApp
I have been seeing Sarah for awhile now and I would strongly recommend her to anyone who needs to see a physiotherapist. She is extremely patient, friendly, helpful and kind. She is the best physiotherapist I have seen by far.
Physiotherapists here are very experienced and they have helped me achieve functional improvement of my movement. I have been discharged from doctor and avoided major surgery after 10 sessions. I have been keeping up with regular therapy sessions as part of my maintenance routine. My principal physiotherapist resolved my issues effectively during every visit no matter old injury or new issues.
Had a motor vehicle accident a few months ago and sustained injuries which surgeon referred me to pain management via physiotherapy. Martin was chosen for me and I could not be more pleased. His clear instructions correcting my weak areas allowed me to learn to perform with results. His attention to details and sincerity also instilled confidence and trust. I come out of every session making progress and feeling stronger. I have been to several physiotherapist but you are by far the best. I come scared and apprehensive of the therapy session, I leave happy, relieved (of pain) and assured of my recovery ahead. I found the entire staff at Kovan very friendly and always helpful. Makes me look forward to the next session.
I have done 2 back surgery years back and did not follow up with consistent physio therapy until I met Farha in Kovan. With my twice weekly session with her, I have less radiating pain to my butt. She is very good in relieving muscles pain with acupuncture and massaging as well. Strongly recommended for those that just injured themselves.
Marie is a very enthusiastic and outgoing physiotherapist who goes out of her way to ensure her patients get the utmost care during their recovery period. Highly recommend her
My physiotherapy sessions at Phsyio & Sole had been wonderful. My physiotherapist was very patient, friendly and understanding. Will strongly recommend their services and treatment.
Dr.Marie was very helpful with my tailbone pain...she is so dedicated, kind and energetic..she guided me in my own pace and very caring. Highly recommend her and clinic was also well equipped and all staffs were very professional.
Farha is very friendly and knowledgeable, and she ensures that every patient is given the utmost care during their recovery period. The other staff in the clinic were also very friendly and professional.
Very good service and very professional for Martin Leung’s help. He is patient and caring. I got all the help I wanted from a physiotherapy session. I will continue to come back for his further therapy sessions.
Excellent service at the Kovan clinic , Mr Lian my Physio is excellent and talks so nicely with you to make you explain the problem and has excellent knowledg. I used 2 crutches when I first came and within 10 days I was off with my crutches not because he cured me so fast because he gave me the confidence of walking without crutches and explained me that my injury was almost healed. Now after 2 months I am 99% normal and should be 100% within couple of weeks. Really thankful to Lian for his extended support and help he has given me during all my sessions. A must visit if you need physiotherapy sessions.
The service is excellent, whether at the front desk or the Therapists. My Therapist Mr. Chester is awesome. He's very patient to further understand my medical history and lifestyle before I was injured. In doing so, both of us can work together more effectively for my recovery. Highly recommended 👍🏻
A great and professional place for rehabilitation! Being with Chester for several months helps me a lot on walking again after the painful ankle fracture experience. Chester has the passionate to help his patients and build their ability and confidence again to get back to normal life! Thanks again for all your effort!
I am very satisfied with the place, first of all the staff there are very friendly which makes it easier to ask questions whenever in doubt. Secondly, I am very happy with the progress I have made in the past 6 months, from not being able to run in the right form from being able to run on hard ground and that’s a lot of improvement! And I’m also glad that the physiotherapist was able to answer and treat problems that occurred along the way! Overall I am satisfied with the service!;)
My physiotherapist Chuen Thye is very patient and encouraging. I have improved tremendously under his guidance, and he always pushes me to achieve more each session. Very thankful for a pleasant physiotherapist who makes each session slightly less painful with his cheery and attentive nature.
I have been attending physiotherapy sessions for my ankle for about 4 weeks with Physiotherapist Chuen Thye. Each session is informative and enjoyable! Also sufficiently rigorous - At the end of each session he will give you some exercises to continue at home.
Chester is very patient and understanding. He will recommend exercises for me for all my aches. He too will go the extra mile to email my doctor about my progress. I have improved a lot under his guidance.
Hi i would like to complement my physio Mr Chester. Firstly came with a minor slip disc and was referred to Physio and Sole Clinic. Thanks to Mr Chester and the stretching that he thought me, i can see improvement and good progression to recovering.
Great experience at this clinic. Effective treatments and the therapist (Chester) is very knowledgeable and passionate. Staff are friendly and supportive as well.
The service is excellent. My physiotherapist, Mr Chester Leow is very experience and patient. With his help, I made good progress
I visited Physio n Sole some months back. Christopher Lo is my physio he is very good immediately he can know which part of my muscle is down n need quickly work on it so that I can walk without much limbing. Other physio I visited will just purely get me to do the usual exercise without analyzing the muscle weakness area. I m not sure if other physio in the ctr is also like that but personally I benefited from his experience n care. Thks Mr Lo.
My therapist, Yang Zhi made me fee welcome and has helped me improve my lifestyle. My ankle range and calf strength improved tremendously, Now I start running 😀
Joey (physiotherapist) is very professional and helped me a lot in my journey to recover from an ankle sprain. Would recommend her if you need such services !
I went down for quite a few visits to The Sole Clinic through a friend recommendation for my lower back pain. I was seen by Guojie on that day and I can say he is a friendly and patient guy who is willing to listen to my present issues as well as the concerns I have. He treated me as a friend/buddy and not a patient and it makes the environment much more pleasing. Also, he gave me some take home information sheets and advise me on the things to take note so as not to strain my back further. As far as I can see, he exhibit interest in my condition throughout the physiotherapy sessions and I always leave the clinic feeling relaxed and energized each time, good job Guojie and thank you!
Making an appointment was a breeze via WhatsApp, and replies were prompt. I got my slot the same day which was very much needed when you are in pain. Mr Chuen Thye was my physio and he was very meticulous in trying to diagnose the issue, and subsequently massaging the lower back. He also demonstrated a series of exercises for me to do at home. Importantly, I think Thye truly was very genuine in wanting to help his patients recover, he still checked in via text following the session to see how I was doing. He was also very reassuring and hearing his advice really did help me put my mind at ease. It was really an excellent experience here, and will highly recommend friends and family here. I don’t usually write google reviews, but I do think this clinic deserves all the commendation.
A professional and meticulous practitioner, Yangzhi was able to diagnose the underlying conditions for my back and right shoulder and prescribe strengthening exercises tailored to my situation.
I turned to The Sole Clinic for help with bike fitting. Raymond conducted the session very professionally and thoroughly. I was made to undergo a pre-fit interview + flexibility assessment; after which he accurately identified my pain areas. At the end of the process, I received a personalized report detailing the measurements of my final bike fit. After my bike fit, the benefits were instantaneous. My hips no longer rocked; I felt more stable and confident on the bike. My knees no longer hurt and my lower back pain was gone too. Most importantly, I no longer look like a gorilla on a tricycle whenever I ride. I highly recommend The Sole Clinic. Even if you have nothing better to do, just head down to ogle at the gorgeous crew - from boss to physio to receptionist. Two big toes up!!
After experiencing knee pain for some time, I decided to have it checked with an Orthopaedist, who then referred me to Physio & Sole Clinic for Physiotherapy for muscle strengthening. Here, I met Joey who made my first Physio experience very comfortable, she was detailed, meticulous and helpful to explain the exercises to do each week. She also made sure to progress the strengthening exercises according to my comfort and strength level. She also ends every session by sending the exercises to be done via Physiotools, this really helps patients keep track of the exercises for that week! The admin staff were also friendly and prompt in sending out appt reminders. All in all, very pleased with the whole experience and glad to have come across this clinic.
I'd highly recommend this clinic for anyone who is injured and recovering, or is looking to improve performance (esp in sports). I tore my knee tendon and was referred by my orthopedist to Guo Jie (he has recently left the clinic though). Guojie was extremely helpful and patient in assessing my injury, and planned a very structured programme to aid my recovery. From the 1st to 9th session, I moved from initially having issues with just walking (chronic pain), to being able to do strength exercises (squats, lunges) and eventually running with no knee pain. Counter staff is extremely helpful and efficient in scheduling follow-ups. I'm extremely impressed with how the clinic has designed and maintained hygiene standards, making me feel very comfortable with visiting the clinic weekly especially during the circuit breaker period.
For 8 yrs, kneeling and squatting is a ‘nono ‘ posture for me. That has changed for now!! The unwavering support ,experience and excellence that had played a big role in boosting up my confidence....my knees are back to health n in shape! It was such a miracle and your efforts have given me a brand new life to start with! Hereby, tons of thanks to MARTIN, to this awesome recovery to make this possible! Thank you for distracting the pain with lots of laughter, jokes n chat throughout the sessions. Not to forget, the front desk staffs, particularly Charlene. She is cheerful, friendly, efficient and her spontaneous replies are highly commendable! Always greeted with a cheery smile ! Have recommended friends n family members, no regrets... All thumbs up! Kudos 💪👏
Brought my mum to Physio & Sole Clinic at Kovan as she was complaining of a nagging strain on one of her legs due to her long hours of standing at work. Fiona was very attentive to assess her condition and even guided her with easy-to-do workout tips for her to strengthen her leg muscle. It's been a few months now and she has told me that the pain is no longer bothering her. The rates are also quite reasonable and the clinic location is quite convenient to the nearby Kovan MRT station.
My orthopedic doctor recommended Physio & Sole Clinic as I had a pulled tendon on my left leg. I visited their Bukit Timah clinic and was assisted by Mr. Yunfeng, one of their physiotherapists. Mr. Yunfeng was helpful and very professional. He took his time to understand my issue and ensure that I was always comfortable with the therapy process every step of the way. Highly recommended and thank you!
Physio & Sole was referred by Orthopedic for rehab after tearing my ligament. There are many outlets available so it’s to the patient’s convenience to choose from. The team was very helpful and got myself an appointment quite right away. Joey is very professional and patience. She listens to the patient’s problem and recommends the right recovery treatment. I was on crutch for 3 weeks and my range was limited when I met Joey in Oct. Each week physio exercises changes to keep up with my progression. I am blessed that I was able to walk properly after 2-3 weeks of rehab and achieved full range now. Thanks Joey and the Team.
My big Thank You to Mr Goh Xuan Kai, Senior MSK Physiotherapist for his excellent service in the treatment of my neck injury. Much improvement after 4 sessions. Thank you and Merry Christmas.
Ms Yong Sue Mei is an awesome physiotherapist!! She’s super cool and provides very effective treatment. I had a bad fall from a height which led to a lot of neck problems I had left unresolved for months. I saw her for 4 sessions and received a really good (and painful haha) deep tissue massage each time and the exercises she gave me really helped. I feel much better already and would highly recommend her and this clinic! The staff are friendly and the facilities are nice and clean. I wouldn’t hesitate to come back if I need to. Thanks so much Ms Yong for your help!!
Physiotherapist Su Mei did a professional and effective therapy for my osteoarthritic knees and I recovered rather quickly. The exercises she taught me are good to do on a daily basis. The clinic staff are also very helpful in responding to my queries..
I went for a consultation with the podiatrist Jialin at Bukit Timah branch due to my plantar fasciitis and PTTD . She is very professional, she explained my condition in detail and show me some exercises which can helps me improve the condition. The front desk staff Insyrah is nice and friendly too . She greeted me with a smile and makes me feel so welcome . Highly recommend 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
My physiotherapist, Chester is friendly and professional. Gives great advises on resolving my pain issues and prescribes suitable workouts to aid mobility and relief pain. My sciatica pain has now improved and we found movements suitable to reduce the pain and regained much mobility.
My mum went to the clinic after persistent shoulder pain for months, and the condition did not improve after various forms of treatment. It was only recently that she went to The Sole Clinic to seek consultation from Wesley, and after assessment and treatment on the first session my mum felt more comfortable. The conditions and causes as well as further treatment plans were explained in detail. Very professional service!
Special thanks to Joey who helped me recover from my shoulder injury, and more! I was referred to Physio & Sole Clinic (Kembangan) last August. Joey was very patient and took the time to listen before assessing the problem areas. She had given very valuable feedback and advice in addition to the relevant exercises that I needed to do to recover. I bought 2 packages so that Joey could help me with other problem areas which had been impeding my movements and exercise routines. Joey helped with those areas too. Now, I am more aware of the necessary stretches and exercises that I need to do as well as the correct posture to adopt so as not to strain my back. Correspondence is also so easy via Whatsapp and the staff managing it is very responsive, helpful and friendly. I highly recommend this clinic!
So far so good experience in kovan branch. Where Martin helped me with my shoulder problem. Definitely can see improvements so far and very likely to resume my normal activity soon.
I am eternally grateful to Low Yang Zhi and will always thank him for all the physio and also training me to think about my posture to help my shoulder. I can honestly say that movement of shoulder have improve eachtime I have visited his practice and now I fully recovered. I would highly recommend him to anyone with the same problem.
I was referred to do physiotherapy sessions here at Physio and Sole by my orthopedic specialist for my shoulder injury. My physiotherapist Sue Mei is very professional and super helpful. Really had healing sessions with her and my condition has been improved a lot. Thanks Sue Mei and the team.
I had a pain in my left shoulder and visited here. Mr. Ng Hong Kai was my physiotherapist and I’m recovered in only 2 months. I expected it might take longer. He not only targeted for me to just live daily life without pain but he also helped to build enough strength so I can restart my own exercises which might have been the cause of the pain. I’m happy with the result.
Fantastic service and personalized physio sessions. Chester is very professional and has helped me week after week to get back to the sports I love. Highly recommended physiotherapy clinic.
Very good physiotherapist Yang Zhi who has helped me treat my shoulder pain. It took around three months to fully recover from the sports injury. He is patient and provides a lot of instructions and actions to follow even after the last session I can also exercise daily to strength the muscle and correct the positions.
Physiotherapist, Yang Zhi has patiently help with my Insertional Achilles Tendonities by reducing the pains allowing me to get back into running again. The exercise plan were effective in also strengthening my calves and thighs. I will highly recommend to come here if you are having the same injury as me.
Am thankful i got referred to Physio n sole at Jurong. My physiotheraphy Sue Mei was patient yet firm in making sure i do my exercises to get back my strength and fitness from my ACL surgery. Not only does she treat knee related problems, she helped me in other parts of body strengthening too including neck and back and core. Thank you very much for helping me to run and play again. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I suffered from an ankle sprain close to 3 years ago and saw 2 different physio clinics as my pain was not getting better and ankle ligaments torn i had to do an operation . Post op I was given a refferal to physio and sole and got assigned to Mr Ng Chuen Thye. Chuen thye is an amazing physiotherapist, his treatment plan and vast knowledge has been a great help in my recovery. Sadly my recovery was plagued with challenges, I suffered from suture sensitivity and pain even when I gave up on myself Chuen thye never gave up on me. He pressed on with therapy always finding new ways to make it fun and enjoyable for me. He was so good I recommended both my mum and aunty to see him for their knee and shoulder pain and they both recovered well. Here's thanking Mr Chuen Thye for his care and dedication in my extra long recovery for someone whose jumped 2 physio clinic I was very hesistant but Chuen thye has changed that and I HIGHLY recommed him. Also thanks to all the amazing staff who helped me with all my schedule change as I was a frontliner fighting Covid and always had to cancel and change my schedules. Speacial thanks to Hayati and the rest who assisted me i didnt manage to get your names but you know who you are. Thank you again Mr Chuen Thye!! U deserve more then the 5 star rating. Forever grateful.
I want to thank Yang Zhi (physiotherapist) for making my recovery process a much easier one. I hurt my neck and back in a car accident and was referred to your Bukit Timah centre for physio sessions to alleviate the pain as well as to strengthen my muscles. On the onset, I was skeptical how physio sessions cld really help as I didn't have good physio experience (elsewhere) many years back. Thankfully, Yang Zhi is patient and gentle - must be especially hard for a rather resistant patient like myself. He is an experienced practitioner who would share with me the root problem of my pain and explain his course of actions - that really put me at ease. He has helped me to better understand my body and to learn ways to get back to daily activities without straining. Thank you for everything. Wishing you all the best and have a great career ahead.
I've been seeing my physiotherapist, Thye after my surgery and it's been wonderful. Thye is very patient and supportive in helping me to manage my pain and regain core strength which is unique to each patient. He takes special care to tailor each session to my condition each week. Thye is very understanding and fully committed to the process of my recovery which I appreciate and follows up earnestly to ensure that you are on track.
My mum went for physiotherapy after her knee replacement surgery, and was attended to by Mr. Chester Leow. Chester is very warm and friendly, and adept at conducting the physiotherapy sessions. He also shared useful tips that helped in her recovery process 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I had my knee replacement surgery done in July. Started to do physio with your branch at Jurong with Chester Leow. He is a very responsible and caring physiotherapist. Very professional and experience... Under his care, I have recovered almost 90% after 3 months. Would like to send my regards and appreciation to Chester... Thank you very much.
I was referred to Physio & Sole Clinic at Kembangan after my lower spine surgery. Joey was a great help to my recovery. She is not only patient, but a good listener and addressed my issues. During each visit, she patiently helped loosening my muscle tightness and taught me new exercise. My speedy recovery has a lot to thanks to Joey. Despite a major surgery, I was relief to be able to go for long walk after 3 weeks and swim after 6 weeks. I highly recommend Joey should you require a rehab or physiotherapy. Not forgetting to mention, the front desk staff are friendly and helpful too. 👍
