Our Data Protection Promise In Plain English. We won't send  you unwanted adverts, emails or text messages. Your details won't be kept unless  you commission work from us.

 March 2024 update. Covid 19 did change the way we work, but medical visits are, and always were allowed. Some people may still feel vulnerable, so the system we developed then is still available. Meaning  that, if face to face work isn't right for you, we can use video calls like zoom and whatsapp, together with filmed video lessons to create a home programme that's tailor made for you . Just ask.

How we Help

  We have worked with so many people over the years. Here are a few of their comments

It was a long time after my stroke that I started work with the team at S.H.I.P.S

but with their help and my new wellies I am walking better.

Christine Curtis, Newton Abbot

Its over 4 years since my stroke. For a long time after that I couldn't even stand. Working with the team at Ships Physio I am still making good progress

Eileen Sweeting, Torquay

The staff at Ships Physio have really helped me after my spinal cord was damaged. I can get treatment at home when its convenient and though I won't get walking, it stops me from getting worse
