“We Help People Aged 40+ to Become More Mobile And Active, Without Painkillers and Avoiding An Appointment With Their GP”
Physiotherapy at the Wimborne Clinic
Physiotherapy is the practice of analysing movement and finding ways to make it less painful or more efficient, ultimately improving your everyday life or sport performance. We love what we do and are passionate about helping people in the community get back to the activities they love.
If you’re unsure about what to do next regarding an injury or pain, a physiotherapy approach can provide answers about what’s going wrong and how long it will take to get better. We listen to your main goals and incorporate them into your treatment plan.
We genuinely want to help you. You can easily book an appointment directly in our diary. If you’re still uncertain, we have a couple of options for you to explore.
Want Help To Decide If Physio Is Right For You?
Talk to a Physio First
Some people are not quite ready to book an appointment straight away as they are uncertain about whether physio can help them. You might need some questions answering first, so you can be sure that someone at The Wimborne Clinic can help you. It is an opportunity to gauge if we are a good fit and you can become one of our patients. If you click the link below and fill in the short form then we can schedule a call from one of our specialist physios who be able to answer any queries for free:
Free Taster Session
Over the 40 years of helping people make decisions about their health, we know that trying to find the right place to get help is tough. There is the question as to whether it will work, or the uncertainty if it helps your specific problem. We have heard people having bad experiences too, which can be off-putting. We have therefore created the taster session, which is a free 20 minutes session to have questions answered. Fill in the short form following the link below:
Just a quick note to say that the taster session is not a treatment session, it is an opportunity to ask questions about what we do and whether we can help you or not

Since you’re here, you’re probably health-conscious and looking for a way to regain an active lifestyle. Many others have been on this same journey, achieving faster results in easing pain and regaining control of their condition, often wishing they had discovered this sooner.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a GP referral to visit?
No, only some insurance companies require this, but otherwise you can book with us directly, or speak so us first if you’re not sure.
What should I wear?
We want to keep your dignity intact so wear something comfortable and if possible that we can see the area that you’re pain or injury is in.
How Do I change my appointment?
Sometimes other life events get in the way and you have to change your appointment. We ask you give a minimum of 24 hours notice so that we can allocate your slot someone who needs it. If you are unable to provide 24 hours notice this may result in a charge. We sent out email and text reminders, to help keep you on track
How Do I make an appointment?
We now have the ability to do this online at any time of day. You can also call our friendly team on (01202) 841000 who are more than happy to help organise an appointment.
How to find us
We are conveniently located in Walford Mill in Wimborne near the main High Street. There is a public car park which is available to use currently at 80p per hour. Building is next to the Nhs medical centre, so try not to end up in there by mistake!
What’s the difference to waiting for an appointment through my GP
We’ve all worked in the NHS at some point, it is difficult to balance optimising the care for the amount of patients they have, which results in the system having a lot of pressure and often long wait times.
We will take a holistic view of your problem ensuring that we utilise a range of manual therapy, electrotherapy, graded exercises and good education and understanding the problem.

Posted on Andrew CorkeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Richard has been treating me since 2001 (believe it or not) and he's brilliant. Basically you go along to see him with a problem, and he makes it better. Maybe it takes a few visits and it certainly takes some work on my part. But there hasn't been a physio need that I've had that he hasn't solved. He's particularly good at sorting me out when I end up doing stupid things to myself skiing. I've lost count of the no of times he has fixed me up! Thanks so much Richard!Posted on Rosa BaroneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I felt a lot better from the first appointment. Juliette was lovely.Posted on Elaine UrmsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Excellent treatment and advice. No hesitation in recommending to othersPosted on Chris DurhamTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After trying to get a physio appt in Blandford, and getting no responses at all from emails or voice messages sent to local businesses, Richard Goddard at the The Wimborne Clinic was recommended to me by a friend. I contacted the clinic and their response was immediate. An appointment was made and Richard immediately identified the problem, started treatment and gave me exercises to do between appointments. Very impressed overall, and I can definitely recommend Richard, and the Wimborne Clinic, to anyone in the Blandford or Wimborne area.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
