The Natural Order - Canterbury

Clare Garcia-Rodriguez

I cannot recommend Max and the Natural Order more. I booked a session with Max after hurting my leg running, it didn’t feel like the usual overuse injury and as I was training for a fitness event I wanted a professional opinion. Max was very thorough with his investigation and treatment and together we figured out a plan to get me back to exercise including a diagnosis via MRI. Max is extremely knowledgeable and in every appointment we’ve had wonderful conversation across many topics, some related to physio, some not! If you’re look for support with movement (and a good chat!) then look no further.

My experience at this practice was very positive. Max clearly explained my diagnosis after taking a full history. He gave me a treatment plan which was tweaked over the weeks as my condition improved. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Max and his team to friends and family.

Before any physical treatment starts, Max listens! He takes the time to understand any concerns I have, thoroughly assesses all
movement and revisits my history while diagnosing and treating. I never leave without a clear understanding of any issues and a plan for treatment and recovery.
A professional relationship based on Trust. Highly recommended.

Max is knowledgeable and professional. In my experience he goes to a great deal of trouble to identify exactly what the problem is and listens carefully to what you say. When he has identified the appropriate treatment this has been effective for me and he recommends appropriate exercises. He doesn't encourage you to go for more treatment than is necessary and he urges a sensible approach to doing the exercises. I have been very grateful for his help (and enjoyed his conversation).

Max did an fantastic job on getting me back from a persistent calf injury, with simple and affective rehab and got me from being able to just run 3k before my calf would go to being able to do a half marathon in 8 weeks! Very friendly and welcoming I could not recommend more!

Max is a terrific physiotherapist (and an extremely nice guy, too). I am traveling and had excruciating pain in my shoulder. He did a thorough assessment and then treated me with shockwave therapy and soft tissue mobilization. But the best thing he did is arrange with a colleague in Sandwich for me to have an appointment the following day (before my departure to Newcastle) so that I could have an ultrasound and a cortisone injection, if warranted (it was the best option, as it turned out). But even the next morning, before going to the colleague, my pain was less intense and I had slightly better range of motion. I highly recommend Max. I’ve been to many physiotherapists in my life (as an older person, with common older-person problems) and Max is as good as you can find. Stay well, but if you need physiotherapy and are in the Canterbury area, he’s great.

Highly recommended!
Luke was very professional and knowledgeable. I had couple of sessions for a terrible pain on my leg. I feel loads better and I’m walking comfortably again.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I have been seeing Max Ganderton for over four years, twice a week, and I couldn't be more pleased with the care and treatment I've received. Max is exceptionally skilled and knowledgeable, consistently providing top-notch physiotherapy for my stroke that has significantly improved my physical health and mental wellbeing.

From the very first session, I was impressed by his professionalism and dedication. He takes the time to thoroughly understand my needs and tailor the treatments accordingly. The personalised care and attention to detail have made a tremendous difference in my recovery and overall well-being.

Not only is Max highly competent, but he also has a wonderful attitude that makes each visit pleasant and motivating. His positive attitude and encouragement have been invaluable, especially during more challenging times in my rehabilitation journey. Max has been joined at his clinic by Luke, who is learning everything Max is doing and who has been excellent.

The clinic is always clean and well-organized, and the entire staff is friendly and welcoming. Scheduling appointments is easy, and they are always accommodating to my busy schedule.

I highly recommend Max to anyone in need of physiotherapy and stroke rehabilition. The consistent, high-quality care I've received over the past four years is a testament to Max's expertise and commitment to his patients. Thank you, Max and Luke for your exceptional service and friendship.
