Your trusted local physiotherapy clinic
Straight Back Physio is a private physiotherapy clinic based in Charlton Kings, which is dedicated to helping people move confidently and live pain‑free through expert, evidence‑based physiotherapy. We focus on restoring healthy posture, improving mobility, and treating the root cause of discomfort rather than just the symptoms. Whether you’re recovering from injury, managing long‑term pain, or simply wanting to feel stronger and more aligned, our personalised treatment plans are designed to support your goals and fit your lifestyle.
Our HCPC registered physiotherapists combine evidence based treatment and personalised rehab plans for a genuinely caring, approach, in an environment where you feel supported, understood, and confident in your recovery. Our team brings together decades of hands‑on experience, a wide range of specialist skills, and a genuine passion for health, movement, and wellbeing. We are dedicated to helping our patients rebuild strength, restore confidence, and move with ease.
How We Work
We begin with a detailed one‑to‑one assessment, followed by a clear diagnosis and a tailored rehabilitation plan.
