Testimonials

Following many months of pain in my hips, I decided to visit The Barnes Clinic, hoping to find a way of relieving the pain. Vincent has been terrific – he found the root of the problem in my hip and supported me through what was a difficult and frustrating time. I would recommend The Barnes Clinic to other people without hesitation.

The professionalism, knowledge and attitude towards general well being I experienced, was a tremendous help.

After having ME/CFS for over 11 years, I didn’t enjoy reading as my eyes wouldn’t focus for very long and I struggled with headaches. Vincent worked on my neck which amazingly has changed not only the neck but also my vision.

I have far fewer and less intense headaches now and can read for pleasure.

As an active person who enjoys a wide range of outdoor pursuits, falling off things has been an unfortunate by-product. Horses, motorbikes have all tested Vincent’s ability to put things right. His skills at putting my back on track has been much appreciated, and I can highly recommend the VJ Barnes Clinic as the ultimate body repair shop!

Seeking help for a lower back problem I had had on and off for forty years, which could be excruciating at times, I sought the help of the VJ Barnes Clinic. After a number of sessions Vincent not only fixed the problem, but dispelled the nagging back pain. This result earned Vincent my total faith in his abilities, and I would (and often do) strongly recommend him to anyone in need of a caring, dedicated and extremely skillful osteopath.

I realise that I am errant in not thanking you for your treatments, resulting in the restoration of my quality of living. I can now sit for lengthy periods without the need to shift position, climb stairs and hills without dragging my leg, bend my knee/ hip to put-on my tights and pick up shuttlecocks and be on a badminton court without self-consciously restricting my play. I hope the same fluency will apply to my golf next week.

Having worked in the building trade for 40 years, you tend to accept pain as the norm. However, early in 2010, I was incapacitated by crippling pain. I could normally lift 50kg easily, but now found it hard to turn over in bed. You diagnosed 3 abnormalities in my spine which I had previously shrugged off. You warned me that we would be unlikely to see quick results and I did have a number of treatments. During this time, I had two further nasty falls whilst at work but we persevered with great success. My lower back is almost completely pain-free and as strong as it was before. I cannot praise your work highly enough. I thought I would have back problems the rest of my life, but you have proved the opposite! Come on you builders, don’t be shy now. Get yourselves along to Vincent!
