‘Although I have only been seeing Joanna for a relatively short time, I have found her treatment to be immensely helpful. I have a greater sense of moving back into my body, bit by bit, and she has certainly helped me open up to the possibility that I might well reside there again one day. Being such a highly intuitive and compassionate practitioner enables her to have a great sensitivity to one’s individual needs.’

‘Having dealt with my emotional past using 'verbal therapies' I was still left with tension and rigidity in the body. Now Joanna's CranioSacral treatment releases that tension beautifully! I find that her treatment frees up my body and my mind at the same time.’

‘Joanna came highly recommended by another therapist who was on maternity leave. She has helped me so much over the past months, treating a painful hip with Myofascial Pain Release, and indeed getting to the root of other aches and pains.
‘I find Joanna very caring and professional with her treatments, she always seems to “hit the spot” with whatever treatments she gives.
‘I look forward to her treatments every few weeks and she has helped me get my life back on track.’

‘I first went to Joanna with a painful shoulder which hurt when I put my hand-bag on the car seat or picked up a jar of coffee. She quickly found the source of this pain, treated it and taught me how to treat myself. Since then we have worked our way through a multiple of aches and pains with a combination of trigger point therapy and myofascial release.
‘My body now feels completely different to when I began seeing Joanna –where once I had chronic aches now I have short term ‘niggles’ caused by lifting heavy weights or wearing stupidly high heels. I am confident that she can resolve any aches or pains that I present her with and that she will give me the tools and the knowledge to continue my treatment at home.’

‘I have been a huge fan of Joanna's since she sorted out my tennis elbow in one sitting. Honestly, I don't know how she does it but I feel so much better after her sessions and, having returned with various bits of me for attention, I have now sent my hubby for her ministrations. Joanna has the ability to find the right spot and to do just the right thing at the right time to relieve pain and to promote a real sense of well-being.’

‘I was originally referred to Joanna by a colleague who rated her extremely highly, and I wasn’t disappointed. Joanna is very serious about her work and committed to leaving no stone unturned when it comes to finding a solution to her clients’ problems. She certainly went the extra mile for me, trying out various treatments until we found the best ones for my complaint. She creates a very relaxed but professional atmosphere in her treatment room and that makes the experience a pleasant one, even when she’s getting into some painful places!’

'A cycle ride that was possibly a few miles too many, although I didn't realise it at the time, probably contributed to my experience with Polymyalgia Rheumatica. After following various avenues for treatment, I visited Joanna for the first time about a year ago when she suggested a very gentle form of massage, called Myofascial Release. In contrast to other rather 'heavy handed' therapy I had experienced elsewhere, I found the treatment with Joanna both calming and soothing and I am sure this has contributed to my being well on the road to a full recovery. I now have an appointment with Joanna once a month or so, just to maintain a steady recovery and to relax beautifully for an hour or so.’

‘I have been massaged by Joanna Payne for just over four years now on a weekly basis. I have arthritis and polymyalgia and find a combination of massage and myofascial release helps my pain a great deal.’
