I'm so glad I found Andrea. From the outset she was able to identify where I was experiencing the most pain, where I had issues with mobility and muscle weakness. She's a very experienced therapist with a wealth of knowledge in alternative and holistic approaches. Andrea has done wonders for my movement and pain management giving me exercises and has also advised changes to my diet that has improved my sleep and energy massively.

Apart from addressing my immediate back and syatic pain, Andrea was able to identify some long standing posture issues and provide sound advice to redress existing concerns and prevent future problems and suggest preemptive exercises to strengthen and restore.

I saw Andrea with a mix of issues from pain / stiffness in my back to knee pain. She was very helpful for both issues and I am feeling the benefits. Andrea has a holistic approach which involves different techniques and in my case an analysis of posture issues, along with exercises to continue to improve at home. I would highly recommend her.

Andrea has been treating my 12 year old son. She’d never worked with children before but has built up a lovely relationship with him. She’s really helped with his posture and also with reducing anxiety. Having initially been a little reluctant he now looks forward to seeing Andrea and really enjoys his massage sessions with her. Andrea is extremely professional and conscientious and I would thoroughly recommend her treatments.

I had one session with Andrea two years ago as I had been suffering with painful right side of my neck for which I had been receiving physiotherapy for months. Andrea checked my posture and found that my posture was misaligned. She successfully manipulated the right side of my upper body. I skipped home afterwards and have had no problems since. I recommended that my daughter had a treatment last month which was also beneficial to her. Thank you Andrea.

I first consulted Andrea for a recurrence of nerve pain that was initially treated with neurosurgery several years previously. The nerve pain went from my left hip down my leg and into my left foot and I was at a point where I had to use a walking stick to aid my mobility. I was amazed by the level of pain relief from my first treatment with her. Andrea has such an understanding of physiology and anatomy, along with years of study in complementary health practices that she was able to get to the root of my pain and designed exercises for me that progressed as my treatments continued. I eventually stopped using my walking stick and am now pain-free. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone suffering from musculoskeletal or other pain.

I viisted Andrea after a friend had raved about how much she had helped with her neck and shoulder issues. While she wasn't want I initially expected (having assumed it would be more of a straight forward sports massage), she actually corrected several imbalances in my posture, improved my flexibility immensely, and relieved a niggling knee injury.
Highly recommended and will visit again when next in St Mawes.

Andrea is extremely professional and a very impressive therapist. She has extensive knowledge and looks to deal with your long term improvement rather than only focus on quick fixes for specific issues/pain.
Andrea is also very easy to talk and communicate with, and she is able to tease out the information that she needs in a nice and efficient manner.
Andrea’s technique has been very successful for me and I have no hesitation in recommending her services. I look forward to further sessions in the future.

I contacted Andrea following what she subsequently suspected was an acute locked back incidence while on vacation in Cornwall. After taking some pain relief and anti-inflammatory medication, Andrea agreed to see me at short notice outside of her working hours which was extremely kind of her. Within 90mins she was able to return me from a lopsided, forward twisted posture to standing upright with full movement. She gave me several specific and extremely effective spinal exercises. This enabled me to return to London the following day by car although I am pretty sore around my lower back as Andrea predicted. She recommended I see my conventional health care practitioner for further investigation and rehabilitation. I would strongly recommend her to anyone seeking professional help in her field of expertise.

Andrea got right the root of my back and neck problems from the first appointment. I quickly regained movement and ceased to be in pain, and have been able to maintain my back health thanks to the exercises she gave me. She is thoroughly professional, and very knowledgeable. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
