I had seen a few physios and for that matter osteopaths and chiropractors before I saw Ben and I'd been looking for a solution to my chronic back pain. Ben is different, he listens, asks questions and doesn't make assumptions or interrupt or tell you what is wrong before you've finished talking. Once you've finished talking he examines you very carefully including putting you through movements some of which are painful and some are alright but he wants to find out exactly what hurts and what doesn't and then how bad the pain is. All that done he then told me what he thought was wrong and it was quite different to anything I'd heard before. He told me he could help me but it was a partnership and I would have to work on exercises between sessions and come regularly for a couple of months and less often for a couple of months after that but he thought it could all be fixed. I was absolutely ready to try, if he'd told me to come every day for a year I would have signed up if it meant I would get rid of the pain. Four months later I am pain free, it's been hard and at times I've thought I should just give up and go back to pain killers but Ben has been supportive way beyond expectation calling me to check how I am and listening when I've been down. I'm going to continue to see him once a month for a while longer, I don't want things to slip and I'd rather now he just monitor how things are. I have absolute confidence in Ben and I can't recommend him highly enough.
