I was born with scoliosis and had a Spinal Fusion at three years old. The operation worked very well up until the age of around 20 when I started to notice lower back pain. This increased over the years leaving me struggling with chronic pain. I tried various things like epidural and nerve root injections but nothing seemed to work. In June 2016 I underwent surgery to correct the curve in my spine, taking a piece out and replacing it with a metal cage as well as two metal rods either side for support. Unfortunately during the operation The surgeon caught my spinal cord leaving me in Spinal Shock and temporally paralysed from the waist down, but within days I started being able to move my legs very slightly but I was unable to move my toes or my feet.

Richard  is a very active man and  one of his loves is his racing driving he came to us after having tried a  few treatments with other therapist but with no success.

for his back shoulders and neck, but due to a condition with his neck he could not have that area massaged.

Things were getting him down. A friend who had been to see us recommended him to come and see Steve. This is what he has to say about his treatment with us.
