Due to the Covid-19 outbreak the clinic is currently closed to new & current patients in person.
As a profession we have a role in reducing the burden on the NHS during this crisis. So whilst we cannot see patients in person, we can offer Telephone or Virtual Consultations. If you are in acute pain, please email info@dorsi.uk or call 0115 959 8491 / 07387 329666 and we will explain how you can schedule a call with one of our team.
Our team will be in regular contact with our patients and we will be releasing details of our new patient app and rehab portal in the coming days.
We wish you good health during this tragic time and hope to be open again serving our community as soon as possible.
Regards
The Dorsi Team

Saffron was asked many times to give us a bio and picture for the website, but she was always too busy with patients or being scared of hot cups of tea; so we have decided to show you a photo of the haircut she gave her horse.

I am a final year undergraduate Sports Rehabilitator at the University of Nottingham. My main interests with Sports Rehabilitation are into the effects of soft tissue therapy and the way the intervention can help patients in a variety of ways. I am particularly interested in the lower back due to my sporting background which is cricket. The lower back is a common area injured in cricket and finding out more about the rehabilitation is very interesting to me. I am a regular gym goer and if I am not studying or working I can be found in the weight room.

*** Currently bunking off travelling around the world – but she would be offended if we removed her picture & we are secretly all a little scared of her***
