ARE YOU EXPERIENCING ANY OF THESE?
Have you been told to "just keep doing your exercises" but nothing's changing?
Shoulder or neck pain that physio exercises haven't resolved after 3+ months
Suffering from “tech neck”
Back pain that is not resolving after 3+ months?
You've "graduated" from NHS physio but the pain came right back
Stretching and strengthening programs that worked at first, then plateaued
Been discharged as "improved" but you're still limited in daily activities
Told your pain is "just tension" or "posture-related" but standard advice isn't working.
Why Traditional Physio Might Not Have Worked For You
If you've been through NHS or private physiotherapy without lasting relief, you're not alone—and it's not your fault. Standard physio protocols work brilliantly for acute injuries and post-surgical recovery. But chronic neuromuscular pain often needs a different approach:
Deeper assessment:
Most physio appointments are 30 minutes.
Our initial 90-minute assessment identifies the compensation patterns and biomechanical imbalances that standard evaluations miss.
Dynamic neuromuscular treatment:
We use techniques that release deep fascial restrictions and restore natural movement patterns—not just exercises to do at home
Root cause focus:
Rather than treating symptoms in isolation, we identify why your body developed these patterns in the first place.

Chris Kehlar- Sunshine Coast Australia
“We have had the pleasure of knowing Tim Eslick in the capacity of Chris's Exercise Psychologist since October 2024.
We were particular in who we chose to engage to work with Chris as her Exercise Physiologist due to her brain injury (stroke), ongoing epileptic seizures and her right-side limitation.
Tim has always presented himself as a skillful, dedicated and caring professional with a focus on client health well-being and neurological development.
Tim delivers each and every session in a kind and compassionate manner and has the ability and intuition to know how far to push Chris in each session to maximise her ability without pushing her too far.
During the time Chris has been under the guidance of Tim there has been a significant and amazing improvement in Chris's physical and mental functionality. Based on measured criteria, Chris achieved in a number of areas a 50% improvement. This is incredible given the time-frame spent with Tim. Not only has Chris's physical and mental conditions improved but there has been a noticeable improvement in Chris's general happiness and engagement in life. Chris's journey will continue to improve thanks to Tim.”
Common Questions From People Who've Tried Other Treatments
-
Most physio appointments are 30 minutes and focus on exercises. Our initial assessment is 90 minutes, allowing us to identify compensation patterns that shorter evaluations miss. We use hands-on neuromuscular techniques to treat root causes, not just manage symptoms.
-
We specialise in complex cases that haven't responded to standard treatment. Most clients see improvement within 4-6 sessions, though timelines vary. We'll honestly tell you during your free consultation or initial assessment if we think we can help.
-
It depends on how long you've had the pain and what's causing it. Typical ranges: 2-4 sessions for acute flare-ups, 6-8 for moderate chronic pain (3-12 months), 8-12 for long-standing issues. We'll give you a realistic estimate after your initial assessment.
-
About 2 metres by 1.5 metres—roughly the size of a yoga mat. Living rooms, bedrooms, or spare rooms work perfectly. We bring all equipment including a treatment mat.
-
None. We bring everything required. Just wear comfortable clothing you can move in (shorts/leggings and a t-shirt) and have water nearby.
-
Many clients feel some relief during the first session. Noticeable improvement typically comes within 1-2 sessions, with significant change by 4-6 sessions. Chronic pain takes time to resolve—we'll give you a realistic timeline after your assessment.
