β β β β β Since I have been seeing Lou, I have not only been able to heal and strengthen my initial injury but my health in general has improved. I originally went to her with a torn muscle in my calf - she helped me with that but also drew attention to the underlying issues (some of which, like my lower back pain, I have struggled with for over 20 years) Since seeing Lou, my energy and overall physical wellbeing has improved considerably. In one session, she is able to bring one into balance but also give constructive exercises to shift both mental and physical patterns and encourage movement and wellbeing. I now consider my visits to her as important as a regular check up with the doctor or dentist. She also has a great sense of humour and positive attitude that is infectious.

β β β β β Lou helped me to sort out various creaks, aches and pains which I had previously put down to old age. Having always been pretty physically active and conscious, I particularly appreciated the trouble Lou took to explain things and answer questions. So, as well as feeling physically much better having been through her care, I also feel I have learned a lot about how to look after myself better going forward!

β β β β β I first met Lou 21 years ago when she treated my newborn son who had endured a very difficult delivery into the world. The first appointment made a phenomenal difference and only one further session was required to change our distressed baby into a settled happy little chap.
I have long term back issues which she has helped to manage throughout 3 further pregnancies and more recent treatment which has enabled me to pursue my love of running and cycling.
Lou has a scientific approach to her work but also an instinctive knack of getting to the crux of any problems, itβs a winning combination and I regularly recommend her to friends.

β β β β β I have been seeing Lou for over 18 years. She has worked wonders on all my body challenges, aches and pains and enabled me to keep fit and active. She is doing very exciting work with concussion with younger children in sport, something close to my heart as a mother to two rugby playing boys. I can thoroughly recommend her. Her care, sensitivity and professionalism is outstanding.

β β β β β I have seen Lou for various injuries and i've been impressed with her knowledge and understanding of the body. Lou is always determined to get to the route of the problem rather than simply deal with the obvious issues. Her manipulation and exercises have really helped me recover and return to the sports. Thanks so much and I highly recommend her.

β β β β β I was diagnosed with Cerebellar Ataxia which means that I had difficulty in balance, co-ordination and movement. Lou was recommended to me as one of her specialities is balance.
The first time that Lou and I met we spent the time together understanding where I was with my balance and coordination. Louise quickly identified exercises that I should do on a daily basis and throughout our time together these have evolved and changed. There have been times when I have let the exercises drop and I notice that there is a deterioration in my balance and confidence. Through trial and error, I have discovered that after a period of not doing the exercises, if I start them again, then my balance and confidence return which makes them a very powerful tool.
Throughout the time with Lou I have kept a diary and the following are one or two of my entries that illustrate the improvements Iβve noticed:
In order to remain mobile, I still go for a run on a regular basis and have observed that I am able to run down a single track on the edge of a corn field with-out keep toppling off the path.
My running shorts have a zip back pocket to keep a key in. I am now able to reach back and unzip the pocket, put a key in it and zip it up again. Previously I had to take the shorts off to access the pocket.
Buttons, Iβm able to do up the buttons on a shirt once ironed and lying flat on the ironing board. Also, Iβm able to do up the buttons of the shirt once its on.
With my exercises, as devised by Lou, I have a tool that enables me to ground my balance and enables me to be proactive and to continue as I am.

β β β β β I have been working with Lou for over three years now. In that time, every session I had with her was positive and informative. I found them extremely interesting and I came away from each session feeling more knowledgeable regarding what I was physically struggling with. I have brought two different "injuries" to Lou, and I saw improvement in the first one once I started doing the exercises she prescribed regularly. Overall, Lou is an extremely intelligent professional who provides a warm and trusting atmosphere.

β β β β β Lou has been a great help with my back issues over the last couple of years. Iβve really appreciated her gentle, whole-body approach and knowledge, and her practical suggestions on how to help strengthen my body and prevent recurring issues (which I still need to work on!). Itβs a blow for me that sheβs left Bristol but great for those in NZ that sheβll be able to treat!
