EXCELLENT Based on 53 reviews Posted on Carol MorrisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My brother and nephew have both attended this clinic and highly recommended them. My mum who is 80 has been suffering from pain in her lower back. Shes very independent and it was causing her not just pain but anxiety. I took her along and she was seen by Elliot, we can’t thank him enough he explained her problem in a way we could understand which was very reassuring he treated her back and gave sound advice. We can see a huge improvement in her mobility she’s able to walk further, go shopping and she is happier in herself. I said it’s like she’s been to Lourdes 😂 Thanks again Elliot for helping my lovely mum xxPosted on michelle woodTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had the pleasure of experiencing colonic irrigation therapy with my therapist, Nicola, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and at ease. Nicola's professionalism and expertise were evident throughout the session. She took the time to explain the process in detail and answered all my questions with patience and care. During the therapy, she ensured my comfort and provided a relaxing environment, which made the experience much more enjoyable. I left feeling lighter, more energized, and with a newfound sense of well-being. Nicola’s holistic approach and genuine concern for her clients truly set her apart. If you are considering colonic irrigation therapy, I wholeheartedly recommend booking a session with Nicola. You won't regret it! less...Posted on jonathan evasonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Having suffered for 30 years with a bad back that has got gradually worse over the years, I was pointed in this direction. What a transformation Mike has made to me & my quality of well being, I have gone from struggling to get in & out of the car, from walking any distance to what I can do now. After the 1st session my movement was amazing the pain had been reduced to almost nothing, a further 4 sessions and I walked over 70 miles in 6 days on holiday. I would not hesitate to recommend Mike and his team, these are truely magic at what they do, I guarantee you will not be disappointedPosted on danny mcdonaldTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What can I say went in full of pain came out feeling a new man couldn't recommend highly enoughPosted on Courtley ExecutiveTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Couldn’t recommend a better professional and friendlier place. As I drive for a living I go once a month for my back and they’re brilliant!! There’s a reason why you can’t get an appointment within 10 days unless there is a cancellation.Posted on Nicola FurlongTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. An amazing clinic offering great treatments. Staff very welcoming, helpful and friendly xPosted on Julie BurnsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Monday this week, I attended local A&E hospital with severe pain, muscle and nerve damage following a fall few days earlier. I called Balance Tuesday, attended later same day, Elliott listened to the detail of pain and got straight to work. I left feeling 50% relief, I returned 2 days later for another session with Elliot with added prolozone injections with Mike. Today is Saturday, I'm walking, I am pain free and feeling on top of the world. I really can't thank Elliot/Mike enough as I'm now able to go on holiday as planned in coming days. Don't suffer with pain, reach out, these are the best around....🙌Posted on Oliver StanleyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
