Mary Sarah Eldridge has experienced pain for many years in the past prior to discovering the benefits of remedial therapy for herself;
‘Following years of back pain problems and sciatica, when I was a teacher, and having tried many different therapies I discovered the benefits of Remedial Massage. This therapy helped retrain my muscles to release from spasm and hold themselves in a more relaxed and pain-free position. I no longer suffer from the debilitating pain and fear of re-injury and have learnt techniques to self- maintain good back and neck health with no pain and greater flexibility.’
