Back pain can affect every part of daily life, from how you sit and move to how well you sleep and feel. At Pivot Therapies, we take a considered approach to back pain, helping you understand what’s happening in your body and supporting your recovery with expert, compassionate care.
Back pain can develop for many reasons muscle strain, postural habits, injury, stress or gradual wear and tear over time. It may come on suddenly or build slowly, becoming something you learn to live around which should not be the case.
Our role is to help you understand the why behind your pain and guide you toward recovery in a way that feels manageable and supportive.
We begin by taking time to understand how your back pain affects your movement, work and everyday life. This allows us to identify the underlying causes and shape your treatment around what your body truly needs.
Your care is tailored to you and may include a blend of hands-on therapy, exercise rehabilitation, acupuncture and soft tissue techniques chosen to support healing, restore movement and ease discomfort.
Recovery doesn’t follow a fixed timeline. We support you at each stage, adapting your treatment as your body responds and helping you regain confidence in how you move.
We focus on more than short-term relief. You’ll be guided with practical strategies, exercises and movement advice to help manage symptoms and reduce the risk of pain returning.

Highly recommend a must try 🤍🤍 Ashley BoothTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a great experience at Pivot Therapies. They are based on the old Spode site where there is a car park that's free to use for 2hrs and a nice cafe too so it was easy to park and find the clinic and could get a coffee after. I was having pain in my back and shoulders probably from the years I have been sitting at a desk! Jennifer took a look and knew how to resolve it. She gave me a deep tissue massage, exercises and techniques to improve my posture when working. After a few visits my pain has gone and I feel more comfortable at work. I was impressed by Jennifer's technical knowledge and professionalism while providing a friendly welcoming service. I would recommend their physio services to everyone!

Classes are so welcoming, enjoyable and challenging - Jen is an amazing teacher, so knowledgeable, encouraging and super friendly! Would 100% recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Laura MTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I'm so happy to have finally found exercise classes I truly enjoy at Pivot, I couldn't recommend them enough. Jennifer's Pilates classes leave you feeling suitably challenged yet relaxed - a wonderful combination! The Barre classes are also a challenge, but lots of fun too. Pivot has such a warm and welcoming atmosphere with lovely instructors who explain moves clearly & provide great support & guidance. Natalie RobinsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Pivot Therapies has genuinely changed my life! As a complete beginner to Pilates, I am so grateful to Jen for being an incredible guide in my journey so far. Ive had one to one sessions with Jen, which I cannot recommend enough as a beginner. They have really helped me get a better understanding of my own body and pilates and this has helped me apply techniques in the pilates classes. Jen is just an absolute ray of sunshine! I can’t explain how inspiring she is and her sessions are brilliant. Always comfortable in my own skin, even though the sessions are challenging, it’s so great to have someone guide you in the way that Jen does. The pilates and mindfulness sessions are just incredible! To do a pilates session followed by mindfulness is amazing, so recharging. Shout out to Emily as well! Emily’s sessions are great at pushing you but in the most comfortable way for you and your body. Rebecca BourneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
