Testimonials

  • I have been treated by Zubin with osteopathy and acupuncture for 18 months and, having suffered with lower back pain due to disc problems for 15 years or more, and having seen many different osteopaths and a chiropractor, I can honestly say that Zubin has helped me more than anybody else. In fact he managed to get me skiing a week after being unable to sit for more than 5 minutes without pain! He is a good listener, always taking the time to note any changes since my last treatment and following up treatment with exercise and lifestyle advice. In short, I would highly recommend him to anybody.

    Zubin was the first medical professional who took my symptoms seriously and not only listened well, but made me feel comfortable and supported. I first met Zubin in July 2008 when I was struggling to find a diagnosis for my chronic fatigue, headaches and cognitive disturbances, constant virus infections and enlarged glands. After my first appointment I had the confidence that I could overcome my condition, albeit with time, effort and patience and I knew Zubin was the right person to help me do this. When I was formally diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome / ME in 2008 I felt overwhelmed. Whilst so many of the symptoms are common, even some people experience these in different ways and I can see what a tough time doctors and medical professionals have in trying to neatly box this. Slowly over time I discovered this to be a multi-system complex disorder of which the lymph plays a significant part.
    Zubin patiently explained how the lymphatic system (a relatively unknown secondary circulatory system underneath the skin) rids the body of toxic wastes; in essence the lymphatic system is the waste disposal of the body. For a healthy body, the lymph system must be working effectively and it was very clear mine did not! Zubin had studied under Dr Perrin, who founded a common link in CFS / ME patients and the lymph system and had devised a program to properly stimulate and support the lymph. I started weekly treatments with Zubin and early on I could feel the painful congestion clearing and it is now completely clear and I feel the internal systems in my body are working well together. Whilst I had to separately treat other symptoms, there is no doubt that working with Zubin has helped restore my health. I've subsequently seen Zubin for a knee problem from running, and I never thought when I first met him in 2008 that I'd be well enough to be running, It's just wonderful! I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Zubin to anyone!

    I first heard about the Perrin Method, approximately 5 years ago while reading a book about Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, (CFS) / ME. I discarded it as a treatment as I had managed to bring my symptoms to a manageable and stable state.

    A couple of years ago as a consequence of extreme work related stress I had a complete collapse and for the first time since developing CFS I became bed bound and found that my usual strategies of dietary changes, nutritional supplements and graded exercise were not enough to regain control of my symptoms and I became housebound for some 8 months.

    At the beginning of this year a relative told me that she had seen an Osteopath who also practised the Perrin Method. I contacted Zubin Morar and borrowed the Perrin Method DVD. Given the state of my health I was prepared to try anything. I sought a second opinion from a friend who is a Lymphodema Clinical Nurse Specialist, as I didn't want to embark on a costly treatment if it's base concepts didn't stack up.

    The next hurdle for me was overcoming my inhibition about getting semi naked! Zubin's relaxed temperament and sense of humour made this easy.

    After the initial assessment Zubin told me how long he thought it would take for me to get better and I thought that he was being over cautious, however his prediction was very accurate. Important to recovery is remembering to do the home exercises and to expect that your symptoms will get worse before they get better in the early stages of the treatment. Initially I found it difficult to slot the exercises into my daily routine, and on some days didn't really want to do them. However it soon became apparent that the weeks I did do the exercises as advised there was an improvement.

    I am glad that I overcame my reservations and tried the treatment as I have seen an incredible improvement in my health and found a practitioner who offers a holistic approach in helping recovery from CFS / ME. Treatment is always delivered with charm and humour and this is also reflected in the physical surrounding of the treatment room. I also appreciate that unlike many other treatment centres there is free parking available. if you are considerin the treatment or would like to talk generally about CFS / ME I am happy for you to ask Zubin to facilitate this.

    One final praise for Zubin, my eldest daughter is a keen tango dancer, and earlier this year she had two injuries to the same foot. Medical opinion after X-rays and scans was that there was no guaranteed cure and she would have to live with the condition. The proposed treatment was steroid injections into the joints of her foot, but without guarantee it would resolve the problem. Not ideal in normal circumstances, in my daughter's case fairly disastrous as she is needle phobic!

    Zubin offered to take a look, and after one appointment solved a problem that has restricted her movement since March of this year.

    Having intermittently suffered from a problem with my lower back for years, Zubin has come to the rescue on a number of occasions when I have been by side myself with pain. His treatment has always been a full "hands-on" rigorous half hour session, tempered to the needs of my back at the time. I have regular "top-up" treatments to maintain my back even when I do not have a particular problem.
    At the end of each session any pain is diminished and I walk taller, freer and straighter. It is a great comfort for me to know that there is effective help at hand at the Sheen Therapy Centre.

  • I first met Claire two years ago and she has become an integral part of my life since, having treated me for chronic fatigue associated with my MS, as well as myriad other things, with her wonderful aromatherapy massage and Reiki.
    I turned up to the very first session I had with her, completely drained and virtually lifeless mentally and physically - a state familiar to me during episodes of MS and one which I was getting quite fed up with. I have never felt that bad since. Claire has used her unique mixture of dedicated hard work and research, insight, intuition and her gift for healing and coming up with ideal blends to bring me increased vitality, energy, calm and healing in my own life. I trust Claire implicitly. Her warmth and calm and her magic hands make sessions blissful as well as beneficial. She has become an essential support in my life and I have also learned a great deal from her.

    I have been having treatment with Claire Rudderham for a number of weeks now and I can strongly recommend her to anyone. She is the best person I have had to treat me since my injury and she well and truly loves her work. Nothing is too much trouble. I have had Hot Stone Treatment and Aromatherapy for an accident I had nearly 2 years ago. My back is so much improved now, I am walking better and have recently been able to take up ballroom dancing again!

  • For anyone considering Indian Head Massage I would wholeheartedly recommend Ladio. He is an empathetic and highly skilled practitioner who somehow manages to transform me into a relaxed and positive individual over the space of an hour. I find the neck and shoulder massage releases a great deal of residual tension and the head and face massage induces a tremendous sense of calm and contemplation.

  • This is my first proper experience of yoga and I feel privileged to have found such a gifted and inspiring teacher as Penny. Even as a beginner, I am quickly learning how strong and supple my body can be - much more than I ever knew! - which is truly transformational. I am also benefitting from the wider, holistic perspective yoga gives to life. Penny gives lots of individual attention and explains the positions from a physical and spiritual point of view. I always leave Penny's classes on a fantastic high - feeling deeply calm and full of new vitality at the same time. I really do think Penny has a special gift - for yoga and for teaching. She is also really good fun. She makes me feel excited about all the benefits of yoga that I know are to come. I now understand how people become addicted! Yoga and Penny came into my life at exactly the right time - I can't recommend her highly enough.

    Namaste

    I have only attended 3 of Penny's beginner's “gentle” yoga classes but can honestly say that I am already feeling the benefits in more flexibility and a general sense of awareness of how I am breathing and my posture etc. I find the classes quite a challenge but Penny is very encouraging and gives me the confidence to try stretches that I wouldn't have thought I could do. I also enjoy her teaching and obvious knowledge of yoga as a whole lifestyle rather than just a series of exercises.

    Gill Skeet

    Penny's Yoga classes cater for all ages and levels of experience. This enables everyone to achieve their full potential whilst encouraging mental relaxation in a non-competitive, spiritual environment.

  • Pregnancy yoga helped with my breathing throughout labour. I found the weekly session really relaxing. Anna made us feel very welcome and small class sizes made you feel like you are receiving private tuition.

    Fiona, Pregnancy Yoga

    I want to thank you for your part in us achieving our birth plan as I truly believe the yoga helped baby get into an optimal position and helped me feel relaxed and composed throughout my pregnancy and labour. I really, really loved the sessions – thank you for making them lovely.

    Yasmin, Pregnancy Yoga

  • I decided to find a Pilates class because I was having recurrent lower back ache and, after having two children, realised that my core strength needed a lot of work. I am also still breast feeding and thought my posture was suffering as a consequence. Dominika is an excellent Pilates teacher who makes the classes fun but challenging. I could see the benefits of attending the classes within a few weeks and feel better, and stronger, for them. The time of the class is good as my partner can get back in time to take care of our two children. Dominika always suggests an alternative move if the exercise we are doing as a class is likely to compromise my back. She also thinks hard about the exercises and finds different ones so the class never becomes dull.

    Roz

    As a newcomer to Pilates I have really enjoyed my classes with Dom, she varies the exercises each time which keeps things interesting and pushes us more and more each week so feel like I am getting stronger & fitter with her classes.

    H. Grey

    Dominika is able to make Pilates fun and challenging at the same time. She varies the moves every week, so that I am never bored with the same routine.
    Dominika's classes are small, meaning that she gives us all enough time to make sure that we are doing the moves right, and individually helps us to perform to the best of our ability.
    I am getting married at the end of the year and have asked Dominika to help me tone up my arms, she makes sure that she has a variety of exercises for my arms every week. I would highly recommend her lessons.

    Louise

    After having some problems with my lower back, Zubin suggested I try out Dominika's Pilates classes on a Thursday evening to help strengthen my core. I am a complete beginner, but Dom is a very patient instructor and the small class sizes (5 max) means you are always guaranteed personal attention. The class is also fun and uses lots of different techniques to keep it interesting (Swiss balls/partner work etc). I felt more toned almost immediately and I am still coming to class 10 months on.
