| I hope this might be helpful to at least some people. Having suffered for some months with little relief except pain-killers and having tried various therapies such as herbal medicine and acupuncture I was offered Spiritual Healing which gave relief firstly for a day and then for longer each visit until most of the active pain was gone. Then I had Mctimoney Chiropractic to sort out the structural problems (partly caused by using sticks to walk),and that was very helpful. I also had Massage and Reflexology to get the muscles moving, improve flexibility and reduce swelling. Finally (seven months down the line) I had Physiotherapy consisting mostly of exercises to improve flexibility and build back muscle tissue which has been very helpful.. Homeopathy has also helped (Ruta Grav 6th potency) I feel as if I'm improving and definitely have vastly less pain and greater mobility week by week. Ian Markham - England | |
