"My awareness of my body and how it works has increased. I am constantly aware of how I am standing walking and sitting. The pain has disappeared. I really enjoyed my sessions. Claire is an excellent teacher who is very informed and I have already recommended her to several friends."

"Much more aware of posture / bad habits and I think a much improved posture as a result of this awareness. It has also helped me re-prioritise and realise that work is not the be all and end all! Things will still get done even if I slow down! I have found the ‘hands on work particularly useful in reducing the pain. Sessions have been very beneficial."
