Aerialist on a flying ring

10/10 highly recommend!! I’m an aerialist/pole dancer and at the beginning of this year, I started to experience wrist pains on my left side. Beth has been super informative and patience with me in my recovery."

Katherine Ranger, cheerleader

Beth’s positive attitude helped me stave off the panic that any athlete can feel when they’re injured for the first time. Injuries can have a large physical and mental impact but having Beth as a physio has really eased the path towards recovery in all ways!"

Katherine Louise, performer

Bethany Shum is an outstanding physiotherapist who I was so lucky to have help me! I have seen a few Physio’s in my time and by far she is the BEST! She has so much knowledge on the body and how performers work."

Frequently asked questions

What types of conditions do you treat?

We treat a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, including low back pain, sciatica, shoulder and hip pain, neck pain, tendon issues (like tendinitis), post-surgery rehabilitation, knee pain, sports injuries, and fractures. We specialize in working with performers such as dancers, circus artists, aerialists, cheerleaders, and other active individuals. We also offer specialized services for those with hypermobility conditions (EDS and hEDS), providing strength-focused, evidence-based care that respects your unique body demands.

How much do sessions cost?

Session prices vary depending on whether you're booking an initial assessment or follow-up appointment.


Current pricing is available on the website page at https://www.fmphysio.com/services


We Also offer Students and Equality members discount. If you're unsure which session type suits you best, email us at info@fmphysio.com and we'll help you choose.

Do you accept private health insurance?

Yes, Flexibility Matters Physiotherapy works with several private health insurance providers including Bupa, AXA, WPA, Aviva and Cigna.


Coverage depends on your individual policy, so please check with your insurer first to confirm your level of cover and whether you need a GP referral or pre-authorisation code. Bring your insurance membership number and authorisation details to your first appointment, otherwise payment will be taken at the time and you may not be reimbursed later.

What happens during my first physiotherapy session?

In your first session, we'll chat about your medical history, do a physical examination, and assess your condition. The number of sessions you'll need depends on your specific situation and goals. We'll discuss your treatment plan and timeline during this initial assessment.

Should I choose online or in-person sessions?

Many conditions, like pain management, flexibility training, exercise rehab, hypermobility support, and post-surgery guidance, can be effectively treated online through detailed video assessments and guided movement coaching. It really depends on what suits you best!
