“Having have had a lot of physiotherapy and medical input since being critically ill two and a half years ago, I was left with a lot of pain and a brain injury. I finally went for a complete break to Champneys, Tring.

At that time, despite my body still being somewhat stiff, inflexible and in a lot of pain, I really didn't want to see another physio in my life! - But I actually consider myself lucky to have found Emma James Physiotherapy and Regenerate.

Emma James’ assessment was very thorough and professional. Her diagnosis was correct and in line with other professionals I had seen- which proved to me she knew her business!

Her team where equally professional and they worked very hard to help get my seized-up body working better. Working daily on my muscles in a different way, they were actually able to relieve my pain- something no-one else has been able to do.

My problem is severe nerve damage resulting in Neuropathic pain which can be notoriously difficult to treat. It feels like having an electrified rod attached to the backs of my calves, thighs & buttocks.

No-one knows exactly what being pain free meant to me.
I enjoyed my time at Champneys far more because I was able to walk, work - out, swim, ride a bike and do things I longed to do knowing the physio team could put me right. I even extended my stay another four days to fit in more physio!

My confidence grew and my goal of eventually riding a horse again now seems a possibility.

They are professional, know their business, keep thorough records, get results, make it fun and nothing is too much trouble.

I've contacted them several times for help and advice since returning home.

Regenerate changed my life; it gave me hope that all things are possible. What more can I say but thank you.”
