Initial visit was all I could expect. Efficient, courteous reception plus a very professional, responsive, reassuring Physiotherapy session. Very pleased with the entire experience and left feeling well attended to and with an exercise plan for the future.

I’ve worked with Christian and the team at Complete on several occasions and found them to be very professional, generous with their time and highly knowledgeable. Definitely recommend.

Skye Meredith is without question the best myotherapist I have had. Probably like a lot of people, I’ve seen practitioners in the past without really getting results. But, I’ve experienced improvements every time I’ve seen Skye. Skye works at Complete physio in Richmond where the practitioners (the physios) are of the highest caliber I’ve come across and I’ve seen many over the years! Skye is friendly, listens well and is very knowledgeable, skilled and effective. I’ve been struggling with chronic pain and running injuries for quite a while and she has helped reduce my pain every time I see her. She always offers great, practical advice on simple ways to help reduce and manage issues myself. I’m sure Skye would be effective for a lot of issues, but for my running issues, in particular, she has been superb (as have the other physios at Complete).

I have been seeing Myotherapist Skye Meredith who has been working with the team at Complete to manage a persistent calf and knee injury, whilst training for a marathon. Skye is incredible knowledgeable and through her experience with running injuries and being a long distance runner herself she understood my goals and frustrations at being injured. Through her ability to listen and tailor a training plan, I was able to complete and more importantly enjoy the New York marathon !

Skye Meredith is an awesome myotherapist. I followed her to Complete from another practice, even though it is further travel for me, because she is just that good. I always come away from a visit to Skye with my niggles, aches, and pains feeling better, and my movement is always improved too. Skye looks after my feet, ankles, leg, glutes and back. And sadly now, my elbow too. Skye can do it all. If needed I have rehab exercises to do that are clear and precise – and helpful! In addition to that, Skye is just lovely – so bubbly, bright and positive. I always feel great after seeing Skye. Highly, highly recommend.

Amazing physiotherapy clinic in Richmond! I have been visiting the team for many years and they have helped me immensely. I’ll be forever grateful to the team who have helped me with my knee and hip injuries. Christian, Dave, Pete, Mark have not only been incredibly knowledgable in providing effective exercises, but have also been very supportive in understanding the emotional toll my injuries have had on me. I love attending Dave’s pilates classes which makes completing your rehab exercises feel easy and fun. Shout out also to Skye for her amazing remedial massage skills. Thanks team!

I’ve attended numerous courses delivered by the team here at Complete. Physio Exercise Performance over the years. All have been high class, relevant, evidence-based and applicable to everyday practice. Christian, David and the team do a great job and their practice facility really lends itself well to delivering great content. I highly recommend.

Christian’s expertise has assisted me greatly in returning to running post knee injury. I’ve used clinic and Telehealth and highly recommend

The physiotherapists at this clinic are incredibly knowledgeable, they use evidence based approaches, avoid unnecessary imaging and prescribed targeted exercises programs that are effective. I love running and experience a lot of running related injuries. I have seen Christian, and previously Mark, for help over the years and both have been supportive and helpful. They give exercises that are effective because they take the trouble to assess you properly. They aren’t magic so you need to actually do the exercises, but they can help and modify things if the exercises aren’t working. They also know when further tests or medical assessment are needed. My mother, husband and son have also attended at times to address their sporting injuries. I would highly recommend this clinic.
