I have tried all the good clinics in London and nobody could fix me completely. Honestly, I almost gave up on my back. I have heard about how amazing Torben was from my husband's boss. I gave it one more try to see it will actually improve my back! I am so glad I did! I could feel the difference on my first visit. He really is amazing. Now I just had my 4th session and I can finally fly! (haha!) I am so free from the pain now. I definitely recommend him to everyone who is suffering from all different kind of pain. Thank you, Torben!

It literally took me years to figure out that the mirror fronted premises on Old Street with the…read moremodel spine above its awning was an osteopathy clinic. Stupid perhaps, slow, most definitely. Since discovering the Central London Osteopathy & Sports Injury Clinic however, I have not looked back. Now I'm no Olympiad but I did suffer a lot of back pain as a student huddled over my requisite Powerbook. And as such, the Central London Osteopathy & Sports Injury Clinic, and David Annett in particular who also gave me a lesson in 'the ergonomics of studying with a laptop' were nothing short of a Godsend. With a handful of impeccably trained osteopaths, an acupuncturist my mother swears by called Ann Bradford, naturopaths, kinesiologists, and yoga and pilates classes, the list of this clinic's merits and services could go on and on. At the risk of sounding overzealous, the Central London Osteopathy and Sports Injury Clinic is nothing less than a one stop shop for natural fixes to well worn problems and I, personally, cannot recommend it highly enough.

They're amazing and extremely motivating if you are working towards a particular goal or just want to become more fit and healthy. The gym features a great sized pool with three lanes (a slow, medium and fast lane) and the cleanliness is top notch! The showers and changing area are always clean and also feature hairdryers and straighteners (bonus if you need to style your hair). Also, quite recently they have just installed some new equipment and also feature a sauna, steam room and great spin studio. I would recommend trying the day pass before joining up for 3 or 12 months as it may cost you either £65 or £75 a month depending on the duration.

I woke up one morning some number of months ago and could barely get out of bed because my lower…read moreback was in so much pain. I'm still unclear whether or not I caused some trauma to it, or just sleeping on a craptastic bed for so many months had finally caught up with me. At any rate, I went about my everyday daily life, expecting that after a week or two I'd recover. Sadly, that didn't happen. In fact, a few -months- went by and my back was still bothering me. Some days were better; others... well... weren't. Enter: Graham Stones. At a recommendation from Larissa, and after seeing his Yelp ads on the site for awhile, I finally booked a physio session with him at the Light Centre. Upon my first visit, he asked some diagnostic questions before having me stand up. He placed his hand atop my head like you see the special religious people do before declaring, "You be healed!" He didn't actually say that, but somehow he was able to determine what my back needed and set to work pulverizing the pain. One session in (and many inappropriate grunts and moans from me as Graham unknotted my back), I was feeling much better. Three sessions later and a lot of self-care with the yoga poses Graham suggested, I was completely back to normal. Lemme tell you, not being in constant discomfort is priceless! The long and short of it is this: Graham Stones is the back whisperer. If you need a physio, look no further.

Have you got muscular pain?…read more Have you spent £20 on a 'massage' at Walk-In Backrub and promptly regretted it? Do you want someone to target your pain and beat your muscles into submission? Then Graham is the massage therapist for you. 'Cause this ain't your grandma's back massage. I've spent many an hour lying on Graham's massage table, whimpering and crying like a baby, as he managed to find the exact spot on my body wherein hellfire and brimstone furtively resided, waiting to be uncovered and unleashed onto the world with one poke of Graham's capable and unyielding ninja fingers. No, seriously, this man is THE BUSINESS, and I highly recommend him. He managed to cure my chronic shoulder pain over a course of treatments, and he was totally honest about the fact that he didn't WANT me to be a habitual customer. Sure, it might be better for him monetarily if I came in every week, week-on-week, indefinitely, but once I got to feeling better, that was the end of our masochistic relationship. That is, until many months later when the hellfire returned elsewhere in my body, hiding this time somewhere in the nether regions of my hips. I knew what needed to be done... I have an appointment with Graham later in the week during which I have no doubt he will be as brutal and satisfying a massage professional as ever. I can't think of another person I'd rather pay to hurt me so good.

I had hurt my shoulder . They gave me an appointment the same day. I met with Hazel, the resident Osteopath and she was fantastic. She was so thorough in her assessment of me and the work she did that day really helped my shoulder. She followed up with me a couple of days later and I luckily only needed one more appointment. The service I got was thorough. The value was good and they didn't push you into treatment you didn't need. I felt they were trustworthy and committed to giving their clients the best possible treatment. On top of this they were really friendly. I would highly recommend them.

Being a college athlete and as a result, severely injured multiple times, my body is always tight after heavy work outs and intense sessions on the tennis court. James realigns me and relieves the tender parts around my hips and abdominals. I will admit, I was a bit hesitant at first because to maximize these sessions, it's best to wear minimal. James' hands are fantastic and he finds sensitive muscles you didn't even know hurt and melts away the pain. He's also very generous with his time and believes in helping each person, even if it means spending a few extra minutes on them per session.

The facilities include several work-out areas, including one women only, a dedicated Pilates studio, spinning studio, squash courts, pool, lap pool, health spa area, café and Jacuzzi relaxation area. The changing rooms are massive, spread over two floors with steam room and GHDs. Folks, this place is bloody amazing, but unfortunately they still don't exercise for you. The only downside is they use a token system for some classes which can be pain if you get there late and are kicked out of class for not having one.

Please all present and future members be aware that Nuffield Health Centre cancellation policy is…read morean absolute fraud and they are great experts when it takes to steal money without offering any service: The day you join the gym they make you sign a paper where you agree with their terms and conditions, without specifying that, if you are willing to cancel you need to give 30 days notice otherwise you have to pay a full month membership fee even without using their facilities!!! The real scam is that clause 11*( the cancellation policy) is not even on that paper, but it is just hung on the wall, written with micro-characters and when I joined no one made me aware of that. Long story short, unless you bend to their fraudulent rules, they send you one or more intimidatory letters asking to pay what is due according to that clause (I learned about that policy when I first got the mail and I was incredulous) and then they pass your details to Creditlink Account Recovery Solutions Limited that starts harassing you itself. I was willing to meet them halfway so that I went to the Cousin Lane Centre myself 2 times, asking to send me an email in which they stated that I was willing to close the dispute and that this had to be communicated to C.A.R.S. but do you think I got any help/notification? The manager just kept on saying "you should have read the policy on the wall". These guys...what a great customer service they provide? I am not the only one who had the same issue with Nuffield (check the link below) so again be aware that there are a lot of gyms that survive just because they are in fact stealing money, but I have learned my lesson now, and you? http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.php?t=5653848
