Written by the company

Freedom physio brings Harley Street expertise to the heart of your community. With almost 30 years’ experience, my love for fixing backs has only increased, spurred on by hearing patients say ‘you’ve given me hope again’ or a smiling face that is now pain-free. My clients range from the exhausted mum and the desk-bound city worker to world renowned music artists, bands and a prime minister. For the last 10 years I have worked at the London Spine Clinic in Harley street with an amazing multidisciplinary team, including some of the world’s leading spine surgeons. I will continue working with this team to enhance my practice here in Chelmsford.

You Need Rachel Dodgson She Is Amazing!

I cannot recommend Rachel Dodgson at Freedom Physio in Chelmsford highly enough. From the very first appointment, Rachel has been an incredible source of knowledge, support, and genuine care. I’ve been struggling with back pain and Drop Foot, and her expertise has truly made a remarkable difference in my recovery.

Rachel’s qualifications and experience are truly impressive—she's been practicing for over 34 years and has worked alongside world-leading spinal specialists at The London Spine Clinic on Harley Street. Her extensive background and continuous development in spinal medicine give her a level of confidence and skill that is second to none. She is incredibly knowledgeable and always takes the time to thoroughly understand her patients’ conditions.
What sets Rachel apart is her caring and positive approach. She genuinely wants to help and is dedicated to finding the root cause of your pain—often, the source is not where you might expect, but Rachel’s expertise and intuition always lead to effective treatment. Her background as a Pilates instructor adds a valuable dimension to her rehabilitation techniques, making her treatments both effective and personalized.

Since starting my journey with Rachel, I’ve seen real progress, and her encouragement and optimism have kept me motivated. I’ve already recommended her to my family and friends, and I would wholeheartedly suggest anyone looking for a physiotherapist to consider her.

Rachel’s mission to bring Harley Street level expertise to Chelmsford truly shines through in her work. She is a dedicated professional who truly cares about her patients’ well-being, and I am so grateful for her help in my recovery. If you need a physiotherapist who is experienced, trustworthy, caring, and highly skilled, look no further than Rachel Dodgson at Freedom Physio.

Highly recommended

I brought my mum to have a few sessions with Rachel. My mother said she had never felt more relaxed. The K Laser worked wonderfully on her back. Instant relief- is I believe the phrase my mother described it as.
