If you find yourself with need of an Osteopath I would have no hesitation in recommending Daniel…read more From start to finish the process is easy, honest and open and he will strive to help you feel better but will not make any promises that he can't keep. You can book in online via his easy booking tool. He offers free initial consultations where he will chat through options and give you an honest appraisal as to whether he thinks he can help you or not. Appointments are 30 mins but if he has no appointment after you he regularly works on to try and help you more and there is no extra charge. He creates a relaxed atmosphere where you can chat about just about any topic under the sun whilst he does the essential work that needs done to help you. If you are used to a really formal setting you may be taken by surprise, but for me the chilled atmosphere is a huge plus. His aim is to get rid of you (feeling better of course). Not a good business plan, but great for patients as you know he ain't just in it to keep you coming back for ever and ever like you hear from some other practitioners who always want to have you booked in again. Daniel Gerber..... osteopath, healing genius and all round good guy. If your in pain just now, you should give him a try.

No one came close until I walked into Daniel Gerber's treatment room. He knew exactly where the problem was almost without input from me and after only two sessions my pain began to disappear and my posture straightened noticeably. After a short period of regular appointments I moved onto maintenance sessions as and when I feel the need- sometimes several months apart. Back pain is a horrible experience - it makes you irritable and miserable, easily distracted and generally less able to cope with the day to day. Not any more! This man has changed my life!

Magic or miracle, I can't decide! Having hobbled with sciatica for a couple of weeks I finally made…read morean appointment with Max, who was recommended to me by my dad. As I was visiting my family for the weekend I thought it was pretty unlikely that Max would be able to take me on a Sunday and, even if he could, would be able to fit me in at such short notice. But he could and did! Max was very patient, knowledgable and friendly. He talked through my symptoms and gave me advice and homework. The massage itself was very thorough- about an hour long - and I immediately felt relief. A chill out, relaxing bath and a night's sleep later and I feel like a new woman! It was certainly worth every penny (£30 as at Nov 2013) and I'll be back next month so Max can sort out my stressed neck! Max the magician!

Since moving to the UK, it seems to come in waves. Yoga has been the only calming force and constant. Over a month ago, Abi opened up her boutique studio near Strathbungo and Queens Park and I have been a fan ever since. Compared to impersonal big box gyms, Barbreck is intimate and unintimidating, while offering you the ability to challenge yourself. Kettlebells? Athletic strength and conditioning (Olympic lifting)? Bootcamp? Boxing? Metafit? Pick your poison, and step up to the challenge. Classes are small, and guaranteed individual attention; something that is lacking when you sign up for a class where they squeeze in 30 students! It's a challenging environment, but also friendly and encouraging. In addition to classes, I work with Abi during personal training sessions where she creates workouts geared towards my goals. Though I think I made the mistake of telling her I wanted to strengthen my core for yoga inversions and arm balances, and I'm now in a world of pain. To compliment the fitness side, Abi also offers sports and massage therapy which is housed next to the studio. From training, injury assessment, treatment, rehabilitation and therapy, is there anything Abi cannot do? Oh she's also part owner of the Scottish Kettlebell Club too ;-)

For the past 6 months I have been experiencing terrible pains in both my left and right foot and…read morehave been seen by doctors, consultants as well as physios. I was told that I had torn a tendon in my right foot and had a strain in my left foot as well as problems with my ligaments. I was advised by a friend to contact Elaine to see if she could help. I was a bit wary of doing this as I am no friend of needles - but as I was in so much pain I decided to try. When I met with Elaine she talked me through the proposed treatment and actually listened to what I had to say. I was pleasantly surprised that the treatment she provided was not what I thought it would be. I never thought that acupuncture could be relaxing. Following several sessions with Elaine I am able to walk without pain, wear my trainers again as the swelling I had previously reduced. I will continue to see Elaine weekly at this point to keep up the ongoing benefits. Elaine is a top professional but is also a very kind and caring person with great empathy - I cannot praise her enough.

I usually prefer going to an osteopath when I have back problems as I find the process more gentle,…read morebut when my regular osteo moved out of town I discovered Dawn Blaser. Dawn is American, great fun, and a damn good chiropractor. I don't go to her very often, but when things get really bad she can usually have me straightened out in under 15 minutes and often in just one session. She doesn't mess about - a quick appraisal of your range of mobility, then it's onto the table for some serious crunching. Almost before you're even aware of what's going on, you suddenly find that you can move much better and things don't seem to hurt as much as when you came in. "It's just simple bio-mechanics," she says. She is fast, efficient, and very effective. Sadly not terribly cheap, but she is very, very good at what she does and is well worth the expense. I know she treats a lot of professional dancers and I hear nothing but praise from them about her, so that's as good an endorsement as you're likely to find.
