I have been a client of Ruth’s for 15years and in that time we have worked
together to create a sustainable, functional way for me to live with my
Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder (HSD). Before Ruth, I had seen many, many
professionals ranging from chriopractors to physios to surgeons. Despite
following their advice and quite often paying a lot of money I found my pain
and mobility did not improve.
Through a combination of hands on fascial release, pilates style strengthening
exercises and stretches, as well as indepth discussion between the two of us; my
ability to move and function in my every day life has improved exponentially.
Ruth looks at me holistically, she wants to know what I have been doing and
how my daily activities might affect my body. She has seen me through three
pregnancies and all the physical aspects of looking after three small children.
Ruth understands how my challanges go deeper than movement. She knows
that I have to be able to work my exercises into my daily routine and she helps
me achieve this. There are always bumps along the road but I know that I can
go to Ruth and we will look at how to help manage and lessen my chronic pain.
I fully trust Ruth to know and understand my body and I always come away
from our sessions feeling a weight has been lifted. I trust her to the extent that I
have been bringing my daughter to her since she was 8 years old, she also has
HDS, and I know if anyone can help it is Ruth.
