Epsom Chiropractic Clinic

I have been a long-term patient at Epsom Chiropractic Clinic since an accident in my 30s in which a thoracic vertebrae was crushed. This was approximately 30 years ago now.

As the crushing was not concentric my spine was liable to twist affecting my hip alignment thereby subjecting me to ongoing pain and other secondary problems that I have had to learn to manage.

Simon and Elizabeth's kindness and treatment have maintained my health and managed pain levels over the years. This was a serious trauma and without their care, I am sure I would not have been able to continue with normal life and work. If I was unable to get the pain relief they supplied then I would not have learnt how to reduce stress not only on my body but also on my mind and emotions to maintain my quality of life.

Thank you to both of you.

Prior to seeing Simon, I tried physiotherapy, exercise, all sorts of painkillers and even made a home made traction device at home. I would wear a soft collar most days because of the pain. I am a GP. A rather cynical one. I did not expect Simon's manipulation to help as nothing worked so far but I did not want to under go a cervical nerve root anterior decompression and fusion of three vertebrae as had been suggested after seeing a neurosurgeon, at the tender age of 34. I seriously doubt whether I will ever have a religious experience or enlightenment, but Simon's first treatment of my neck was pretty close to that. After his first manipulation, I felt something being released in my upper back and neck and the pain was 99% better. He explained I had T6 syndrome as the result of scar tissue being formed between the spinal canal and dura l covering of the spinal cord. His manipulation broke the adhesion and the pain stopped. He describes himself as a "biomechanic", I endorse his thoughtful manner and treatments.

Excellent, described the condition and a resolution came quickly when all else failed.
