'Dr Referred me to David'
After acute pain in my chest my doctor said she thought it was my back and referred me to David. Having never been to an osteopath, I was apprehensive but shouldn’t have been. David took time and care to discuss my problem and then carried out considered, painless treatment explaining it along the way –recommending key things to change in life as well. Two sessions have seen me greatly improved and nearly back to normal. Thank you very much.

'Rib & Lower Back Pain'
Last Wednesday evening, I started experiencing discomfort in my ribs and lower back. I called David and explained that even deep breathing was causing me pain. Fortunately he managed to squeeze me in an appointment that afternoon. The treatment was incredible - in less 30 minutes I was able to move normally again. David also, gave me some simple tips on keeping good posture.
Thank you David - I seriously thought I was going to be laid up for days!

'Behaviour Cranial treatment aged 5'
My son had had cranial osteopathy as a baby following a difficult pregnancy and early life but it had lapsed. We had noticed that at 5 he had become cranky, found it difficult to concentrate and often went to “planet Charlie”. We decided to see if there was anything that David could identify and treat. He immediately put Charlie at ease and treated him almost without realising he was. We noticed a change in behaviour after one session and will be keeping this as part of his maintenance programme. Thank you very much.

'Autistic Spectrum...Cranial Osteopath'
I had been suffering from migraine for much of my life and getting frequent attacks paralysing me down one side of the body. The conventional method was to rely on beta blockers which I decided against. A friend of mine recommended I saw David. This I did 2 years ago and my migraines are now under control. Whilst having treatment with David, I felt he could help my son. At the time he was seven years old suffering from sensory issues and on the Autistic Spectrum. After a few consecutive treatments my son was much calmer & a noticeable improvement in concentration. David comes highly recommended his professional, gentle, caring approach comes natural, a talented Cranial Osteopath.
'Lower back with shoulder/neck pain'
For most of my adult life I have suffered with lower back and shoulder and neck pain and have consulted various practitioners in a variety of disciplines, none of whom provided permanent benefit.
Finally, I was introduced to David Gray who set about relieving my painful symptoms, and perhaps more importantly, seeking out the causes, that became the subject of further treatment. This was complimented with an exercise regime suggested by David.
The outcome has been very successful, keeping me virtually pain free for the past few years.
In addition the skill he brilliantly brings to bear with his hands David is an excellent communicator explaining at each stage, exactly what he is doing and what he expects to achieve. This aspect I have found fascinating and extremely reassuring.
Thanks to David I have been able to continue my hobbies of golf and gardening. Additionally I have been spared surgery on a damaged shoulder which had been the subject of investigation by a Consultant surgeon in May 2004.

'I recommend his way of working'
I have seen David regularly over several years now for help with a 'bad back' - a recurrent problem from a slipped disc many years ago. His careful attention to the exact symptoms and his encouragement to use helpful exercises between appointments have contributed to an overall sense of well being and decrease in back pain. I can recommend his holistic approach and way of working without hesitation.

'Counselor recommends clients cranial'
I really enjoyed my treatment with David, and he had a very good understanding of what was going on for me emotionally. And I felt great afterwards! As a counselor myself, I like to know of someone like David who I can recommend to my clients for cranial work, and do so with complete confidence.

'I highly recommend him'
I have seen various therapists about my ongoing shoulder problems for a number of years but the pain always returns after a few days. I consulted David and with his knowledge and professionalism my shoulder pain stopped after 5 sessions. I now see David every 2 months for a general 'check-up. I highly recommend him.

Unsettled Baby
Thanks for seeing my daughter Ellie on Friday afternoon. I felt very positive after the session, and have been using lots of the techniques you showed me with her. She has seemed much more settled in the afternoons, and when she has been unsettled, she has calmed down much quicker.
'Neck & Hip Pain'
After going to David Gray for just a few weeks with severe neck and hip pain, there is a marked improvement in both areas. David Gray is professional and has a pleasant and reassuring manner. I am so very grateful to the friend who told me about him.
