Simon Trumper (Poker Professional)

When I go deep in a tournament, I can be sitting at the poker table for hours. This puts strain on my neck and lower back. With the high pressure to perform on the poker circuit and running Europes biggest live poker club, I can't be distracted by discomfort. To make sure I'm performing at my best, I get my spine adjusted by Ashley Burn at Holly Cottage Chiropractic Clinic.

Charlotte Hovring (International Curling team member participated in Olympic games, World and European championships)

In curling balance is everything. My muscles needs to work at their best to control my posture on the ice whilst delivering the stone. I want to focus 100% on my performance and not be worried about injuries. To achieve this my spine has to be perfectly aligned which is why I see Trine on a regular basis for chiropractic care.

For many years I have tried to go jogging but have not been able to, due to pains in my lower abdominal musculature. The pain was so intense and would stop me running immediatley. This led to me avoiding running as part of my training, forcing me to use the exercise bike or cross trainer instead.

I was on the verge of giving up running completely when I heard about FootLevelers at Holly Cottage Chiropractic Clinic. Alongside adjustments from Trine Hansen I have been using FootLevelers for 3 months. It turns out mechanical problems in my feet were causing postural strain on my lower back, pelvis and abdominal musculature resulting in pain whilst running. Once this was corrected my body was able to cope with the stresses of running.

Today I can now run for 30 minutes with no problems. The pain in the abdomen and foot has fully resolved. For me this is an achievement I never thought I would accomplish.

I am looking forward to seeing my progress over the next 3,6 and 9 months as my body adapts to the orthotics and adjustments. The results so far have changed my life greatly and I could not be happier!

Thank you FootLevelers and Trine Hansen DC.

Yours sincerely

Two years ago, after an accident at work, I developed neck pain and some other related symptoms. I sought medical attention and received little help. I suffered a few weeks of pain and discomfort.

A friend suggested I visit Holly Cottage as she had been helped previously. I contacted Holly Cottage and was given an immediate appointment. I was sceptical as to the success of the treatment but after one session with Trine Hansen there was an  improvement in my condition due to her thorough investigation and treatment of my problems. With the ongoing support and treatment, the trapped nerves in my neck and muscle spasms were sorted out. I am now able to use the exercises shown to me to help if I feel the pain coming on. I know that if I need any further help it is just a phone call away. All of the staff there are very helpful. I would recommend anyone with neck, back or related problems to contact Holly Cottage. Many thanks to Trine for all her help, advice and support.

I have known John Lange for several years and been most effectively treated by him for neck pain and lower back problems. He is always polite and professional, and I have been happy to recommend him to my patients and friends.

For months I had been suffering from low back and groin pain. It was affecting both my work and sporting activities. The team at Holly Cottage took the time to find the cause of the problem and since undergoing care I have been back to my normal self, playing football on a regular basis.

Thank you for helping me out of trouble!

Keith F, Garage Proprietor, Birmingham

I suffered from a slipped disc which happened a number of years ago and as you can see I do a manual job. Thanks to John Lange I still do a full time manual job and live a normal life. I see John on a monthly basis for one session and this keeps me mobile. If I have a relapse John is always there to help me through with a few extra sessions. If it wasn't for John I don't know what would have happened to my mobility.

Working in IT, I sit at my desk for most of the day. This was causing terrible upper back and neck pain, making it difficult to consentrate at work. Since getting regular adjustments at Holly Cottage this is no longer a problem and I can now focus on my work rahter than my pain!!

Thanks Holly Cottage! See you next month for my adjustment.

Mrs E

Getting old is certainly no picnic. Everyday tasks seem to get harder, they seem to take longer, the floor seems to be further away, and bits of the body and mind seem to be getting tired and worn. I therefore count my blessings that I am an active 75 year-old, not yet ready for a zimmer frame. I try to do all the right things to stay fit and well and this has included regular help from the staff at Holly Cottage over many years. Many chiropractors, and especially the present practitioners, have helped enormously in keeping me mobile. More than once "a stretch in time" has saved an awful lot of aggravation! They have used their skill and expertice to overcome the inevitable aches and pains of advancing years which would otherwise have been frustrating obstacles to me. I am so grateful for all their help to keep me able to do so many of the things I want to do.

Dr Denise L, General Practitioners, Sutton Coldfield

As a GP and patient I value the care immensley. After twenty years of upper back pain I was out of pain and mobile after two sessions with John Lange. He has given me a 'MOT' each year since and I have now trouble now. After a fall I had quite severe low back pain that I struggled with for six month, silly me, John put it right in three sessions. As a GP I have recommended very many patients and all have come back singing their praises. Thank you, keep up the good work.

Ann J, Housewife, Shirley

I have suffered from serious back pain on and off for over 40 years. Unfortunatley due to a fall some 10 years ago this became quite severe. I have now tried several specialists who have tried various treatments with differing levels of relief. The only consistent relief I have experienced is through the continous treatment of my visits to John Lange. Frankly at times without that treatment the pain would have been difficult to cope with. Not a solution but mos definatley essential relief.
