\n

I met Dr Ashburner last year in when I took my daughter to see him regarding her knees, which had been troubling her for some time. During her appointment he asked me what was troubling me and I briefly explained that I was suffering from chronic exhaustion as well as tension and discomfort in my back and neck.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

He told me that he was confident that he could assist me. At my first appointment he took a very thorough history and explained what his approach would be to the chronic fatigue. At this point I was willing to attempt any treatment that could help me regain some comfort in my body. Added energy would be a bonus. I am a full time ballet teacher and mom to 2 young teenagers and my life is full of demands on my energy reserves.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

Over the previous number of years I had struggled to honour all my commitments due to a constant feeling of flu-like illness, pain and discomfort, headaches and extreme exhaustion. Many visits to my G.P with general complaints of not feeling well had not uncovered any more than a chronic iron deficiency. I had 5 iron infusions to correct the deficiency, but even after that I was still suffering with very sore neck glands and a general feeling of fatigue.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

Over the years I have also been on the Quantum machine, had kinesiology and chiropractic treatments as well as acupuncture.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

Whilst all the earlier treatments had for a short while lightened my symptoms, none have made as big a difference to me as what osteopathy has.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

Dr Ashburner has significantly changed my life for the better. I am so happy to no longer suffer any backache. My focus on good posture has become much more acute and I have gained more flexibility and range of movement in my back. He has also positively influenced me to make better food choices and I have reduced my sugar intake by about 90%. This has also contributed to the more positive feeling and increased energy I now enjoy. I can happily say that , thanks to Dr Ashburner, I am a great deal more able to tackle all my daily demands.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

Now that the acute phase of my chronic fatigue seems to be behind me , I look forward to my regular \u201ctune-ups\u201d with Dr Ashburner.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
