TESTIMONIALS
"I have used the physiotherapy services of Claire Schnetler this year for three different issues and feel I have had very good treatment for my various complaints - particularly concerning my left knee and lower back.
Claire always gave me a thorough examination and provided targeted exercises which proved to be very effective. I have seen her about 7 times.
I found her professional yet sympathetic and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her" Mrs H, Dawlish
"I went to Claire to help with 3 problem areas - sciatica, a painful elbow and shoulder. Claire was very thorough with her initial assessment using questions and observations of where I felt the pain and testing what my body was capable of before experiencing pain.
Claire provided me with an easy to follow plan of what exercises and stretches would alleviate my pain and improve my own body's muscle strength to prevent and protect against further injury. There is definite improvement in my flexibility and a reduction in pain from the advice and direction Claire provided.
Claire is friendly and easy to work with and I will be using her services again" Mrs P, Bishopsteignton
"Four weeks after breaking a bone in my foot I was looking for a physiotherapist who could help me with my recovery.
Claire is very knowledgeable, clearly highly experienced and put me at ease from the very beginning. In our hour long first session we had an in-depth conversation about my injury, she examined the injured area throughout and showed me exercises and stretches to strengthen my weakened muscles. But most importantly she gave me the reassurance and confidence I needed to get back on my feet again. After following her advice the mobility and stiffness in my foot has improved tremendously, I can already walk pain free.
Claire's after session follow up email was really helpful too - I received all the exercises she showed me, clearly explained and with links to video tutorials.
I can’t recommend Claire enough. Anyone who’s in the middle of their recovery would benefit from Claire’s knowledge, experience and utmost care. Thank you, Claire. " Mrs E, Teignmouth
"My husband had been suffering excruciating and debilitating pain in his shoulder and upper arm for 3 months when we contacted Claire to see if she could help him.
The pain was so intense that it negatively impacted his ability to walk and his daily life was therefore being badly affected, because he was unable to keep himself physically active.
Claire has quite literally been an absolute life saver. From her first visit her cheerful but utterly professional approach immediately put him at ease and after regular physiotherapy sessions over a period of 6-8 weeks, as well as following the daily exercise regime that she had set for him, his pain levels began to reduce steadily over time enabling him to begin enjoying life again. She also wrote detailed reports for his GP which resulted in additional help from the NHS.
We will therefore be forever grateful to her and would not hesitate to recommend Claire Schnetler's physiotherapy services to anyone. " Mrs P, Dawlish

"Excellence deserves comment. Over the last 12 months I have twice been incapacitated by extreme pain affecting my neck and shoulder. Initially I went the NHS route for treatment but, unfortunately, due to insufficient staff and too many patients or clients, I was unable to obtain regular treatment, so, after a couple of months this pushed me to the private sector and initially brought me to CS Physio and Claire Schnetler who addressed my first bout of pain. I have nothing but praise for her skills and professional approach which, combined with her friendly manner, were it not for the pain and discomfort, I would say it was a pleasure to make her acquaintance. After just a few visits, deep joy. I became pain free.
Some six months passed, and then out of nowhere the intense pain returned again to my neck and shoulder. Not wishing to become again disappointed with involvement with the NHS, I called Claire and with her typical approach to such situations, arranged for Charlie, a member of her team to very quickly attend upon me . After a couple of visits by Charlie the intense pain was eliminated. Which has left me the problem of which to give the most praise, Claire or Charlie? However, notwithstanding, they are great at their jobs and I have their numbers on my speed dial for my next attack.
Short version= Claire and Charlie, Highly skilled and professional." Mr P, Dawlish
