'From feeling anxious and tense I now feel so relieved and have a sense of wellbeing. I am able to think more positively and move forward. Thank you so much.'
Jane Hill Pontypridd
'I was diagnosed with breast cancer aged 50 yrs old. Two years later I developed lymphoedema in my right arm. The after effects of a lumpectomy and axillary node clearance proved to be minimal compared with the physical and psychological effects of the lymphoedema. The condition has restricted my physical activities; it is painful; unsightly; limits choice of clothing and is difficult to come to terms with.
For the past 4 years I have been receiving Manual Lymphatic Drainage treatment from Janet, which has been invaluable. Although there is no cure for my condition, Janet's treatment has enabled me to continue with some physical activity. It has given me confidence that any immediate swelling can be managed and that the condition is not hopelessly untreatable. With regular treatment, we have kept the condition manageable to the extent that it can go unnoticed by other people. I feel comfortable wearing clothes on social occasions that reveal my arms without the use of support hosiery. Psychologically, this is priceless and life changing.'

I find the Hivamat very beneficial, it helps me to alleviate aches and pains and works for a number of days, giving me instant relief. It is gentle and non invasive and I recommend people should try it." J Shaw Cardiff
'Aromatherapy massage has really helped with my stress levels. Thanks I feel so much better.'
Jo Groves Cardiff
'I am so grateful to you Jan. I downloaded the consensus yesterday evening and the dose should have been 500mg erythromycin NOT 250 mg my GP had prescribed, so I doubled up and the sore has shrunk overnight from 2 cms across to 1 cm and feels much less itchy/ hot.
I went to a different Doctor this morning with all the info and she has changed me to doxycycline 200mg to start then 100 mg daily for 2 weeks as cefalexin predisposes to C diff, then a prophylactic of 50mg daily for a month and then will see her to discuss. This means I can still take my statins unlike erythromycin. Thank you' J Robbins Monmouth
'Jan is fab. Have been seeing her for several weeks after having lipo surgery on upper and lower stomach and flanks. Initially very painful but Jan worked with me to make it as comfortable as possible. Gave me exercises to complete at home and sent stuff by email. Have definitely healed quicker than I would have and am seeing the results quicker. Would definitely recommend her services.' C Hennessy Cardiff
'After having liposuction on my abdomen I was recommended MLD massage by my surgeon to help with the healing process. I found the MLD treatment with Jan an essential part of my aftercare and healing process. Jan is very knowledgable and after every treatment I noticed a difference in the swelling and texture of the underlying tissue.' A Riley Cardiff
