"Lay down here," he said, as I put my socks back on…read more I obediently went back to the blue chair, as he slid the backrest down to turn it into a bench. "I'm going to test your core strength with a few exercises, so just roll on your left side..." I've never been to a chiropodist or biomechanical ...engineer? Specialist? But I'm going to be trekking to Everest Base Camp in October, so I want to get back into a decent exercise routine that doesn't involve shooting pains up the front of my shins or pins and needles in my feet. It was one of the strangest experiences, given that I went from walking home after a lunch meeting to shoes off in the doctor's office. I'd gone in on a complete whim (because it was there), and the Brougham Clinic had fortuitously had an appointment cancel, so I managed to walk right in. George was lovely, quite direct and knew his way around my feet. He asked for some specific information and gave me a mini-101 on the ligaments in my legs and feet and how the pain I had been experiencing was coming about. He tested me, my balance, my posture and a variety of other things and filled my head with a lot of information and positivity, really, about what I was embarking on and how best to achieve a steady pace to success without injury. Overall, he was pretty brilliant on first impressions! Plus, he showed me how to tape up my foot (I sprained my ankle last week and it is still a bit tender) and gave me some insoles to try out. The walk home was much more comfortable after that, and I'll be seeing George again in a couple of weeks! The appointment book was pretty full, so I do recommend booking in but they also have times available evenings and Saturdays. Apparently, they're seeing a lot of marathon-ers at the moment. But next time, though, I think I'll skip the novelty socks....

Fantastic! I booked through email and response was quick, booking an appointment was easy and…read moretreatment was fantastic. Katherine is lovely, very friendly and very professional and I am delighted with the treatment.

FASIC is my go to physiotherapy and sports injury fixer. They are located within the Edinburgh…read moreUniversity Sports Centre at the Pleasance. It's a bit of a maze so allow 5 minutes to find FASIC once your in the building. I first encountered FASIC 10 years ago when badly injured and needed intensive physiotherapy (twice a week for 8 weeks then once a week for 10 weeks), I've been treated at least four times since then by the physiotherapists at FASIC. They have always been very thorough with the history and examination of the injury, given good treatment and exercises and advice on minimising future injury. I've found them happy to not to recommend seeing you for a follow up appointment unless what they have advised hasn't worked. Unlike NHS physiotherapists they focus on returning you to your previous level of activity. If being able to do the splits is something that you could do but now can't they will give you exercises to help you get there rather than telling you that it isn't important. It's very much sports focuses but they will treat non sporting injuries too. As well as physiotherapist services they also have podiatry, sports medicine and other services based from here. Annoyingly they don't post prices on their website but this is as they have discounts for staff, students and members of the gym. It was £42 for a 45 minute consultation with a physiotherapist without any of the mentioned discounts in November 2015. The reception will provide detailed receipts for insurance claims but they don't do direct billing.

If you can find your way passed the brightly painted, winding corridors of the Pleasance gym, with…read moreits terrifyingly awful yet somehow hypnotic RnB and dance tracks and you don't kill yourself falling over the cleaner's equipment that always seems to be lying out, you might just do your body a favour. Housed within the university run Pleasance gym is Fasic, a sports medicine centre with multiple services available. It's no wonder this place comes recommended by Olympians. Fasic got its name after those who set it up in the late 80s decided "Fitness Assessment and Sports Injuries" made a less unfortunate acronym than "Fitness Assessment and Recreational Trauma". Though its also run by the university it is technically separate from the gym, and all are welcome, though they do offer discounts to gym members. I tried out Fasic after deciding I needed a second opinion on my ongoing back problems. As I'm active in sport I thought it was best I maybe went to a physiotherapist that specialised in sports related injuries. I'm glad I did. The first time you visit Fasic you will be seen by a well trained sports physiotherapist who will then recommended either further treatment if necessary, or that you and see another specialist, which in my case was podiatrist. The only prerequisite is that the injury is either directly sports related, or that you are injured and active in sports. Despite my previous physiotherapy treatment, which was to some extent a success, the physio at Fasic managed to uncover the source of my problem which is a major step forward. I found the attention was great, and the staff were very friendly. All this for a great price. With my discount I spent around £25 for a 45 assessment. That might seem a lot but for physio that is really a bargain! The only drawback is that Fasic it is pretty popular. I am now currently waiting three weeks to see a related specialist. But if the treatment continues at this quality, it will all be worth it. As mentioned already discounts are available to students and those who are members of the gym already.
