Testimonials
I started seeing Jenny in April 2019 after getting persistent lower back pain which was causing me real issues. She was welcoming, professional, thorough, and I felt like she was listening carefully to what I said, examining me and treating me well accordingly. I went for two appointments a week at the start, then it went down to one a week as I improved. After about a month I was much better thanks to her care. She was very flexible with appointment times which was helpful. Thank you very much Jenny, I will be back if I have issues again.

I have always suffered from headaches, regularly resorting to over-the-counter and prescribed pain relief. I am 56 and had become really miserable at the constant strain of living with head pain.
I had my first treatment from Jenny and felt the benefits immediately. I felt as if it was the first time in years that I had been free of any headache and could stand with my back straight and my shoulders relaxed. I have had massage before with little noticeable change but this treatment felt very different Jenny gave me advice as to how to tackle the onset of a headache and since that first treatment my headaches have improved beyond belief. I used to think my headaches would always be a constant, painful part of my life - now I cannot remember the last time I had one.

I went with a great deal of lower back pain and I had not been able to move easily for weeks. Following treatment I was a bit sore for 12 hours, but then the pain disappeared and movement returned. It was as if the problem had never been there at all, plus I have had no problems since, quite amazing!
