Moira Warby “I have my life back!”

“I’ve pretty much always struggled with back pain, over the years. I slipped a couple of discs 20 years ago, and things worsened. Then last year things got even worse! The back pain and lack of mobility incapacitated me to such an extent, that I couldn’t work for a period of 6 weeks. I could hardly leave the house. I literally spent months on the sofa. After investigations, my back specialist referred me to Harris & Ross, and I started seeing John Gripper at the Wilmslow clinic. He has completely turned things around for me.
I am very grateful for all his expertise, patience and input. Apart from the slipped discs, the issue now seems to be muscular, affecting the gluteus maximus, as well as a weak central core. At first, I could hardly get onto the couch. Now, months later, I have my life back! I can walk, bend, jog, cycle and swim. The therapy consists of massage combined with a moderate weekly increase of movements through physiotherapy. It has taken a lot of time and effort, both from myself and John. I am now at the point where I need to attend physio sessions less often. John has also done another big thing for me; he suggested I see a nutritionist. The food I was eating was affecting my health and back too. After seeing this other health professional, my health is in a far better place. I remain very grateful to John.”
