Therapy Room Sheffield

”I was working in a stressful job that involved a lot of time sitting at a desk and using a computer.  The job was exciting and interesting and it wasn’t until I had retired that I noticed that my shoulder movements were limited and my wife commented I was developing a stoup.  I thought this was partly due to old age, but I had been involved with massage thirty years ago and thought massage treatment may help or at least prevent any further deterioration.  I didn’t have any reservations about working with Eva, especially after having had a recommendation from a friend.  Eva did an excellent job, not only has there been no deterioration, but a considerable amount of improvement.  I particularly like her style of massage, professional but individual and well tailored to my needs.  After working with Eva I now realise that regular massage is a very effective way of remaining healthy” RS

“Thanks for your expertise this afternoon. You are terrific!” SM(Client makes excellent progress with debilitating shoulder pain, she had been on painkillers for months. A course of treatments with a chiropractor made no difference. After three treatments, and self-massage advice, she does not need any painkillers any more, even with the heavy workload coming up to Christmas.)

"I was surprised how some concentrated effort of the mind could totally affect the body.  I now understand its within my power to change my life". Cathy 

"Marilla has worked wonders! Lifting babies and toddlers over the last 18 months has slowly lead to back pain and tension headaches. Marilla has systematically worked her way through my aches and pains and started to work out the route cause in terms of my posture and lack of lower body flexibility. It has been transformational. My back is pain free, the tension headaches have disappeared and progress is definitely being made on my legs. Thanks you! I will be back for more!" - John

"It was interesting to find the Alexander Technique was not just about correct posture - but encompassed the way we think.  Lucy's approach was professional and explained clearly and precisely, without the use of complicated jargon." Janet 

"I had a session with Eva and she has worked some kind of magic! After 7 months of back pain and increasingly low mood as a result I have had virtually no pain since our session, no stiffness or pain this morning and needed no pain relief. I also feel fantastic in myself. Wonderful. Thank you Eva and I'll see you again for more magic soon!" (JH)

"No more turtle neck and contracting when I'm cold - I can keep my length when cycling and not crunch my neck.  I'm learning to trust my body and the support of gravity - so much easier."  Ian

“The pains I have had were so much better after the last treatment I would like to keep on top of it” BH

"I had suffered for many months from severe muscular pains, especially in my right shoulder, which was almost totally frozen; I also had pain in my neck and back. I started a programme of treatment with Eva Weltermann. Eva worked with remarkable thoroughness on my problems by deep massage and manipulation which was more successful than any other treatment I had in finding the sources of my problems and tracing through their pathways. Moreover she supplemented their effect by a number of home exercises which were very beneficial.I am now pain-free and am pleased to recommend Eva’s work with enthusiasm." Peter, Barnsley

“I’ve been seeing Annie for massages throughout my third pregnancy and it’s been something I’ve looked forward to each time. Annie takes the time to listen to how I’m feeling and tailors the massage to me. I feel very safe in Annie’s hands and my pregnancy aches and pains are soothed by her massages.” AS

"My wrist is completely better now (touch wood.) I felt that I did feel the benefits of the MLD you gave me especially when you moved to working more closely with the area around my cervical spine. I wanted to thank you for your support and time in helping me find solutions to the problem." JG(Massage and lymph drainage, together with expertise from physiotherapist Lesley Dyke, worked for this client)

"I don’t know whether it’s because of the work you did on my back yesterday but I had the best nights sleep for a long time last night. I know we discussed effects of massage in class but it is quite a coincidence. I actually feel pretty good today – my back AND my brain. :-)" TM(came with subacute lower back pain which had lasted about 4 weeks. Doctor prescribed painkillers. Work on trigger points in gluteus medius and piriformis, along with self-massage advice, set her on the path to recovery)

"Your approach goes so much further than just 'posture training' and is about a mental discipline.  You helped me challenge myself and my thinking with ever greater precision.  This helped me greatly in seeing how the habitual things I do, however innocuous they might appear, are constantly getting in my way, creating unnecessary stress and strain.  More importantly you showed how I can overcome them.  I feel so much freer, and I made great progress, and am now more myself."  Steve Ward, Transport Manager

"I can highly recommend Karyn as I have tried out abhyanga (the full body massage) it was 90 mins of bliss. My whole body was lovingly and tenderly treated to an ayurvedic massage with the emphasis being on soaking me in beautiful sesame seed oil and having this deeply rubbed into every muscle and joint of my body. I was then cocooned in many piping warm towels and blankets so that my body could reap the full benefits of the massage." (JB)

“Just wanted to let you know that I have been practically pain-free since my massage last week. Thank you so much”. BH
