I've been going here for about a year now and cannot recommend it highly enough. An excellent way to relax, manage stress or pain relief or if you're a sports person in need of maintenance this is the place!

Absolutely love my treatments By Naomi. Talk about relaxing, hitting the spot and all over mind n…read morebody therapy. I love the holistic side of this treatment and the after-treatment conversation. Very enlightening. I was never one to even consider having someone touching my feet until I was late in pregnancy...got a treatment (therapist came to me at home - bonus) then had a baby next day!!! Yeee haaa. That was 2 years ago... Still love a wee visit to Stressed Lemons. No matter the ailment reflexology can definitely help. I have been for pregnancy, back pain, stress, sleep problems and recurring headaches. All sorted with a few sessions. So today, had a wee de-stress treatment and as always it was amazing. Felt the frustrations melt away. Cannot wait to sleep tonight. Not too pricey at all. And as mentioned above, she can come to you at your house if unable to get to her clinic. Go check out the website for further info. Highly recommend this.

I have heard of this store before and the infamous Jan de Vries. Unfortunately I've never met the…read moreman or had him operate on me but reports say he's a bit alternative and could be a genius. Though my only experience here was on my way back from a jog that went marginally wrong and involved me hobbling back rather than running as I had originally planned. I called in here to see what the nice people recommended as I had no painkillers or bandages in my house. I got some anti-inflammatory cream which worked a treat and dose of painkillers for good measure. I'm all for alternative medicine if it works. The cream, though helpful, was nearly £10 and for the one occasion I used it, I felt a bit stupid. It was the most expensive jog I've been on but my foot has never looked so good.

Having sinus trouble for most of my life, I finally bit the bullet and went to the Framar Health…read moreClinic, for a much sought-after appointment with Jan de Vries, the well known homeopathic and alternative health care expert. I left with two things. The first thing was a prescription for herbal tablets to improve my sinus condition (expensive and didn't work - not a happy bunny.) The second thing was a new, fixed 'unclicky' jaw bone. Sounds weird, but he seems to have some knowledge of how to manipulate bones if they are troubling you - I'm sure there is some medical name for it but I've no idea. All I know is before I went in, my jaw would click like mad when I was eating, and after I left, no more clicking! Now, it was kind of weird - I thought he was going to choke me, as the manoevure involved putting me in a headlock type position, but it really did work! Now, I imagine if I had been able to afford to repeat the prescription for the herbal tablets, they may have helped me - but it was too pricey for me to maintain each month. I do know many people whom Framar have helped considerably, though. And on the plus side, I can now eat my dinner without the sound of drums...

In lots of pain with my back I was willing to try anything and everything to get relief and decided…read moreto give acupuncture a go as I know several people who found it beneficial. My husband attended here about 4yrs ago for treatment of sciatica. He had paid for a block of 6 treatments but had only used 4, when I rang up to enquire they said remaining treatments were still valid and as his wife was welcome to use them, and could get an appointment the following day. I arrived at my appointment a little early and was warmly welcomed by Cathy. She asked me to complete a short form with my contact details. On entering the treatment room she asked about my medical history, current problems, felt radial pulse in both wrists and looked at my tongue. I was then asked to remove my trousers and lie on my side on the comfortable bed. Insertion of needles was quick, most I didn't feel although some gave a bit of a sting. About 20needles were inserted into my back and leg, a heat lamp was placed near my back and I was left to lie for about 30mins listening to some twinkly music. Cathy popped in a few times to check on me but I felt so relaxed I actually dosed off for a few minutes. The sensation was strange, my legs felt really heavy and afterwards I did feel more relaxed. As for my back pain I did find movement a bit easier and pain slightly reduced, don't know how much was down to the acupuncture itself but certainly relaxation would have helped.

Expert laser clinic, can't believe the laser hair removal results I have gotten with Soprano ICE…read morePlatinum at Laser Solutions! I'd read up on this laser and the reviews all said it was the worlds no1 laser hair removal treatment, and I can safely vouch that it's true. It uses the 3 best lasers at the same time in one treatment, and It's painless as it ices the skin too. I felt no discomfort whatsoever, it was actually relaxing. After my first treatment the hair fell out within a week, the man 5 weeks later I only had sparse hairs growing from my next hair cycle and had to postpone my next treatment till new hairs grew!! I've completed 3 treatments now and don't think I'll need more, there's nothing there. Many thanks to the lovely staff and their meticulous work, great job x

I must come clean in the beginning and say I am a little sceptical about some alternative…read moremedicines, but when it comes to Lisburn Chiro I am a big fan. The other half was suffering from a really bad case of vertigo, and almost at the end of his tether I took him here to see if chiropractic could help. The waiting room and receptionist were both warm and friendly, and then off we went to see Dr. Nic. He was really thorough, talking the OH through his whole health history, taking Xrays and being really sympathetic. He then gave him an adjustment and sent him on his way with some good advice and exercises to do at home. The whole treatment took 3 sessions, and the results were amazing, so good to even knock the scepticism out of me. I hope I continue to enjoy good health, but the moment I don't I'll be knocking on Dr. Nic's door, and so should you. :-)
