In August 2010 I needed to have major surgery following a simple operation that went wrong and was in hospital for 8 weeks.
As the weeks went by and the pain from the surgery did not recede I had to have several visits to the surgeon and repeat scans to see if anything could be done. I was informed that there were 2 options.
1. To have some more surgery to see if they could improve things, which I hastily refused.
2. To rely on pain management with stronger painkillers taken more frequently…..

On a good day the pain was discomfort. On a bad day it was hard to function. I consulted an acupuncturist because I did not want to take drugs forever. After a few sessions he told me that he could only help in a limited way as the problem was a mechanical one and he advised me to find a visceral osteopath. I had never heard of visceral osteopathy but discovered that this is an osteopath who relieves imbalances and restrictions in the connections between the organs and structures of the body. I was then very lucky to find Greg who told me that he thought he could help but that it would take some time. I began having treatments and at first only got relief for a couple of days, but as treatment progressed, the length of time being pain free got longer and longer.

I think Greg has saved me from months of relentless pain. He explains everything as we go along and has given me exercises to support his treatment. I now have some discomfort occasionally which Greg has told me how to relieve. I can now work and have a near normal life. I have the highest regard for his talent and would recommend him totally.
