After having my little girl two years ago via c-section, the mild back pain that I had suffered whilst pregnant, became quite acute and unbearable. I put it down to post pregnancy pain thinking it would eventually subside, but it got worse. My posture also suffered as well as my ability to take up any physical activity, severely hampering my attempts to get my pre-pregnancy body back! A year after having my gorgeous little girl, I was locked in a vicious circle of constant back pain, lack of confidence and just generally being thoroughly miserable! My fortunes changed however when my husband told me about Greg, who he had met through the tennis club. I had had the odd bit of physiotherapy post-pregnancy to tackle my back pain & didn't really know what to expect from osteopathy. To be honest I didn't expect Greg to make much of a difference. Suffice to say I couldn't have been more wrong! Greg is an excellent practitioner, he really takes time to find out exactly what the problem is but more than that he also takes time to listen to you. Hence after seeing him weekly for about a month or so I felt 100% better. He also equipped me with the right tools/exercises to continue feeling my old fitter, pain free self again. I also attended a few back/posture classes that Greg ran, and that for me was certainly a turning point on the road to healing not only my back but myself generally. With Greg's support I have now been working out weekly with a personal trainer as well as training on my own 3/4 times a week.
I really can't speak highly enough of Greg. Not only has he fixed my back, but he's helped me get into the gym to a point now where I love it! I wouldn't hesitate in recommending this very professional and talented osteopath. Huge thanks Greg from me, oh and from my hubby who is extremely pleased to have a happy wife back!! read more
