Clinical excellence in the treatment of musculoskeletal pain & injury.

Mick, aiming for 10k

"I had been immobilised for a month."





"I am gobsmacked at how (acupuncture) has helped ease the pain."

Back in the late 1980, 52-year-old Mick was hospitalised with a fairly serious lower-back injury. Since then periodic relapses have left him in pain and incapacitated. But he wanted to run the Bristol 10K: how? 
"I worked on building sites when I was young and had a nasty accident that left me immobile for a month. My back has never been the same since and, although I do have had long periods relatively pain-free, I noticed things were getting worse as I got older."

​"When I can I enjoy jogging, and was keen to attempt the 10K in Bristol. I was amazed when Pete said it was an achievable objective!

"If you have hurt your back you will understand that the last thing you want is someone prodding it and asking you to stretch and move. But Pete is very good at explaining why and what he wants to do; and he's very careful about how he manipulates your body.  
"When Pete suggested acupuncture my immediate reaction was to escape as quickly as possible. But actually it doesn't hurt, and I am gobsmacked at the how it eased the pain, so much so that we were able to move onto some strengthening exercises quite soon.

​"I am not the greatest at sticking to the home exercises Pete has given me, but he is gently encouraging, showing me that I have to keep my side of the bargain if I am going to get to where I want to be.

"I've seen many specialists in the national health and privately over the years. Pete is the only one that has given me the confidence and practical techniques to help me achieve my goal. I recommend him 100%."
