Common Questions

At Optimum, we don’t just treat symptoms — we find the root cause. Our approach combines advanced physiotherapy techniques such as spinal manipulation, acupuncture, and rehabilitation with a personalised treatment plan tailored to your lifestyle and goals.

Unlike many clinics, we take the time to understand your body, your movement, and your long-term health. Every session is hands-on, evidence-based, and designed to get you back to full function as quickly and safely as possible.

With over 200 five-star reviews and a reputation as Birmingham’s leading sports and injury clinic, Optimum delivers more than therapy — we help you optimise your body’s true potential.

Your first session at Optimum begins with a detailed consultation where we listen to your concerns, medical history, and goals. We then carry out a thorough assessment of your posture, movement, and any problem areas.

From there, we create a tailored treatment plan. Depending on your needs, this may include hands-on therapies such as spinal manipulation, massage, acupuncture, or targeted rehabilitation exercises. We’ll also give you clear guidance on what to do at home so you see progress between sessions.

Every appointment is designed to be professional, supportive, and focused on helping you move better, recover faster, and prevent future problems.

We’ll match you with the clinician best suited to your needs and goals. Each of our team has specialist skills, and if you’d ever like to switch, we’ll make it simple.

Absolutely. Many of our clients come to us not because they’re injured, but to stay injury-free, improve posture, move better, and feel more in control of their body.

Our care is designed for both performance and prevention. Whether you’re training at a high level, getting back into activity, or just not moving quite like yourself, we’ll help you understand and optimise your body.

And if you do have an injury? Our expert clinicians are highly trained to assess, treat, and guide you safely back to full health.

Yes — we work with all major insurance providers. Simply provide us with your insurer’s name, membership number, and claim/authorisation reference, and we’ll take care of the booking for you.

Qasim at Optimum Physio has completely relieved my back pain. He assessed me correctly, found the root cause, and gave me tailored stretches to do at home. I would highly recommend him to anyone and will definitely be using him again.

Basically, I usually come in for contractures caused by stress, and after each session with Mr Qasim, my muscles feel completely reset.

I contacted Optimum to find out if they could help me with my severe pain in my right hand lower back, I was after a cortisone injection in my intercostal muscle. They said they didn’t do that procedure but would speak to one of their partners. I had a call a few days later with an appointment for the same day. I had the ultrasound guided injection with a fantastic gentleman who explained everything to me and hopefully it’s going to work ok. I can’t thank Optimum Physio enough for their dedication to getting me out of pain. I would definitely recommend using them. They go the extra mile. Keep up the fantastic work. Thanks Steve
