The Natural Order - Canterbury

Sergiy F.

I highly recommend Max and Conor to anyone in and around Canterbury who needs physiotherapy. Their dedication and skill have made a significant difference in my recovery.

I recently moved to Canterbury and injured my shoulder during the move. My Bupa insurance recommended that I see a physiotherapist, so I contacted The Natural Order.

Max treated me with shockwave therapy, massage, and prescribed home exercises. After just a month, my shoulder's movement improved significantly, and I can finally sleep through the night without pain. Max is knowledgeable, friendly, and thorough.

Given the success with my shoulder, I also addressed my runner's knee. Now, both Max and Conor are helping me recover so I can get back to running. Their combined expertise has been fantastic.

I’ve been seeing Max at Natural Order for a good few years now, and honestly, I wouldn’t go anywhere else. As someone who does long-distance running and ultra events, my body constantly needs tuning, and Max is always there to sort me out. What I really appreciate is his holistic approach, he doesn’t just treat the issue, he explains what’s happening, why it’s happening and gives me simple, effective exercises to support the recovery afterwards.

His ability to articulate the body’s mechanics in a way I actually understand is a gift, and it’s matched by the way he treats you as a person. Warm, welcoming, never clinical or cold. Let’s face it, being told to get your kit off for treatment isn’t always the most comfortable thing but Max’s manner and professionalism always make me feel totally at ease.

Whether it’s back pain, a tight leg, or just some general maintenance to keep me moving, Max is my go-to guy. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely knows their craft and treats you like more than just a set of symptoms, I couldn’t recommend him enough.

Max has been helping me recuperate after an ACL and MCL repair last Spring. Regular monthly physio sessions with really helpful advice for exercise at home means I'm now (almost) ready for a return to skiing. He has helped rebuild my confidence as well as my knee mobility. Cant recommend Natural Order highly enough.

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.

I would love to leave a positive review but to date I have had no reply from anybody from The Natural Order.
I contacted them to book an appointment for a shoulder injury. The receptionist stated I would get a call back. I heard nothing for two weeks. I then left a voicemail and again no reply back. Very disappointing as they were recommended.

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.
