The Online Physical trainers and physiotherapists are amazing professionals. I visited them about an issue with my tight hamstrings and they provided me with a systematic approach to unlocking them and getting me back to sport. I am an exercise professional myself and recommend my clients to visit OP for any of their Physio needs.

Sonja Smout2024-03-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have Fibromyalgia and I have been a patient of Milos' for almost a year. At first I was skeptical that online physiotherapist could help with my chronic pain, but I'm glad I gave it a try. Under his guidance I have made significant improvements in my strength, endurance and ability to function. I still have pain, but less than before and my quality of life and level of functioning is SO much better. I've also seen improvement in my fatigue. I highly recommend anyone with chronic pain to see Milos. Darina Igić2024-03-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Milos helped me alot with my recovery.
