Title: good physios in london
Post by: fivetenneeded2016 on October 18, 2021, 05:57:10 PM: for those of you lengthening in london, could you suggest some good PTs that possibly could be covered by insurance.

Even if no insurance, what could the costs be like?

Also I have heard most PTs here dont push you so much- they go too easy on you/not trained with LL.

They do LL surgeries there and I have heard they have PTs to help LL patients specifically. No personal experience however.

Interesting. Who exactly is performing LL surgeries at schoen clinic? Which doctor?

@fivetenneeded:
The guys at Isokinetic (Harley St) used to work with Guichet’s LL patients in the past. I don’t know the current situation thou. Might be worth giving them a call.
What insurance do you have? Majority of PTs in UK take BUPA, Axa and Vitality.
