Nicolaโ€™s Story

 

Nicola explains how the treatment has helped her.

The Perrin Technique is the only thing I have found that has consistently worked and that continues to improve my symptoms.

ME/CFS is a complex, multi-faceted illness with many troubling and debilitating symptoms, it is often a comorbidity of Ehlers-Danlos (EDS) and other lymphatic and connective tissue problems.

After suffering with ME/CFS for many years my symptoms became very severe 8 years ago, despite me being physically very fit at the time. I have since tried many different modalities and supplements in my determination to get well. The Perrin Technique is the only thing I have found that has consistently worked and that continues to improve my symptoms.

The fact it is a scientifically proven methodology with excellent research underpinning it is also reassuring. From being housebound and virtually bedridden at my worst, I am now able to enjoy long, regular walks with my family and have even managed to get back on my beloved bike again!

I have also recommended the Perrin Technique to friends and family suffering from long-Covid symptoms, very similar to ME/CFS. They have all experienced a dramatic improvement in symptoms in a very short period of time. All the staff at the clinic are friendly and nothing is too much trouble and I can also personally vouch for Seanโ€™s patience!

I believe that an osteopathy check-up and periodic treatments can help to prevent many issues that manifest later in life, thatโ€™s why I now take both my children for regular check-ups and will continue to have a regular MOT myself, even when my Perrin Technique Treatments are completed.

I am so grateful for all the help and support I have received at the Village Osteopaths. Collette is incredibly knowledgeable and, along with Dr Perrin, is the first person I ask about any aches, pains and weird symptoms I have. I 100% trust her and her team over and above all of the doctors and other medical professionals I have seen over the years, many of whom lack the knowledge or are simply not up-to-date on the latest research.

Not only does Collette really take the time to listen to your issues, she really understands and goes above and beyond with her treatment plans and recommendations. Her approach is kind, professional and approachable, I feel like I can talk to her about anything!

 

Take the next step.
