Osteopathy treats all sports injuriesClients Say...
"Meeting Claudia for the first time immediately made me feel comfortable and relaxed and she discussed the options for my hour. I had been working extremely hard for the 6 months prior to this appointment and as such I was extremely tired, stressed out with a painful back as a result of poor desk posture. Claudia recommended an hour of deep tissue back massage combined with acupuncture to 'de-stress' me. I was a little nervous since I had not experienced acupuncture before but decided to go ahead. WOW - that's all I can say. If I was a sceptic before then not anymore. The back massage was wonderful and Claudia applied force suited to my needs, I could literally feel the knots untangle themselves. The acupuncture was something like I had never experienced before and I can't really explain in words how it made me feel....all I can say is that I felt instantly calm and grounded afterwards, a feeling that lasted for the following couple of weeks. I will certainly be seeing Claudia again for further treatments - and just as a bonus Claudia is such a lovely person too." |
