Physio references
“At the time of seeking your services I was a pretty low point due to the pain I was in and the impact it was having on my life, especially since I had recently become a father. The service you provided has not only given me relief from the pain but has changed my approach to everyday physical activities and exercise. There are occasions when the injury flares up however my visits with you have taught me how to address these effectively and I continue to work on the preventative maintenance. Thanks once again for all your help.”

“I have a longstanding back problem relating to an injury sustained during a holiday job in an industrial plant, when I fell of a railway wagon.
This problem was exacerbated by a construction accident when I was lifting a large cabinet awkwardly.
My back has in been increasingly managed by Physiotherapists ever since. My last physiotherapist gave me exercises that have assisted me greatly but in the end lost an understanding of my situation and my pain increased rather than diminished.
Out of frustration I swapped to John Haywood who assessed the situation holistically and provided massage and general treatment that has managed the pain and situation and given me the freedom and confidence to carry out the things I enjoy doing.
It takes very little to stress my back, despite the care I take, but John’s treatment and advice has been excellent and allows me to live a full life with significantly reduced back discomfort.”
