Our Story

Naomi and Amanda have been good friends for 15 years, supporting each other since their university days and always sharing a passion for all things physiotherapy.

Both were managing their own highly successful physiotherapy clinics in North West London, frequently supporting each other by covering patients and consulting on complex cases.

Recognising the potential to create something even greater together, they decided to join forces and merge their expertise and vision.

After a year of meticulous planning and strategising, they proudly launched The Physio Rooms in September 2024. Now, as business partners and close friends, they are excited to elevate their joint venture to new heights.

I think I could not have a better practician looking after me. She was fully listening and fully in tune to my case and needs, creating a method tailored to me. She also happens to be extremely nice, cordial and kind. I could not recommend her highly enough.
