After 4 months of suffering chronic pain in my neck, shoulder and arm, accompanied by pins and needles in my hand, I went to see Ranza. An MRI had confirmed that I was suffering with two herniated discs in my neck and the prognosis was quite gloomy. Strong pain killers from the doctor were controlling the pain but I didn't want to live on them forever. After just 4 sessions with Ranza I am now almost off the pain killers and the pain has just about vanished. I am now sleeping much better, able to drive again, and soon hope to get back to my beloved mountain bike! In addition to hands-on treatment, Ranza prescribed excercises to aid my recovery and, more importantly, she lifted my spirits and gave me the confidence that I was going to get better!

Ranza was recommended to me when a period of physiotherapy had failed to improve some pretty severe back pain I was experiencing. Ranza's friendly considered approach, treatment and recommendations of how to manage my back improved the situation more in a couple of weeks than the previous months of physio. A real professional with a magic touch! (K. Moss, Director)
After suffering shoulder and back pain for some four years, Ranza was recommended to me by a family friend. After only two sessions I am already feeling much better, able to move shoulders and upper body pain-free. I am sleeping well too! I would highly recommend osteopathy to anyone. (Tony Walker, retired electrician)
My shoulder was giving me a lot of pain for many months – it was affecting my work and I couldn’t sleep properly. However, since my Osteopathic treatment with Ranza, I am so much better. I can sleep and am able to work without pain. (Mick Lambert, Landscaper & Builder)
When I first visited Ranza, she was quick to assess an on-going weakness in my back, shoulder & neck area before I had described it to her. Her treatment has been highly effective and I feel more free from pain than I have done for years. (Lydia Noor, Psychotherapist)
I suffered from a constant headache 3 months, which was not helped by pain killers. I eventually saw my GP, who suggested that I see an Osteopath. Immediately after my first treatment with Andrea, my headaches stopped. I recommend The Fern Osteopathic Practice to everyone, it changed my life in 60 mins! My only regret is that I didn't go sooner! (Janice Dunphy, Company Director)
I am in my early 30's and was diagnosed with Lyme Disease in late 2008 which has resulted in me having lots of debilitating health problems. Towards the end of 2010, a family member suggested that I might benefit from seeing an Osteopath. In my initial consultation with Ranza, she pointed out problems which I’d forgotten to mention which made me very confident in her knowledge and ability. After that first treatment, I walked out in less pain than I’d walked in with. Several of my health problems improved within just the first couple of sessions (including my painful coccyx bone, which the Doctors said I would "just have to live with"). I’m still seeing Ranza as a patient, but over the three to four months since I started seeing her, I’ve benefited so much, she’s improved my overall health problems and my general wellbeing. She is very professional, has a vast amount of knowledge and is a very caring person who will do the best for you, I highly recommend her. (Robert Keighley, HGV driver)
Erin had a traumatic birth - forceps, epidurals & emergency C-section. She was very unsettled, inconsolable and could not bear to be laid on her back – we tried EVERYTHING. After 8 weeks, our midwife suggested we try Osteopathic treatment. After the 1st treatment with Andrea, Erin was calmer, able to be changed on her back, and settled in her moses basket. After the 3rd treatment she is relaxed, enjoys lying down and continues to thrive. I would highly recommend this gentle and effective treatment to any parent experiencing problems such as ours. (Sarah Elliott, mother)
My son was born after a long, difficult labour. His sleeping was erratic and when he was awake he spent hour after hour crying for what seemed like no reason; not a happy or content baby by far. I saw an immediate improvement following his first session of cranial osteopathy and each session saw a further improvement. He is now a much more settled , contented baby without the long periods of crying that he used to suffer. He also has much longer periods of sleep. A major success!! Many thanks for making my life as a new parent a little less stressful and thank you for helping Isaac!! (Rebecca Parkinson, mother)
