Therapy services in Beckenham

“Really pleased with my recent visit to the clinic - all appropriate COVID measures and more put into place with friendly, knowledgable and professional staff. Prior to my appointment the receptionist called to let me know that there is road works nearby and informed me of the alternative route to take, which I found helpful. The chiropractor who assessed and treated me was amazing, she explained every process to me during the assessment and had an extensive amount of knowledge about my symptoms which was really reassuring. You can tell she has a real passion about what she does and truly enjoys doing it. Overall the professionalism and competency of the clinic is outstanding and I would highly recommend them!”

“Lucky me that I met these people! Tom and Felicity. Felicity did a great job with my arms and shoulder that were painful since a month. Thanks to Felicity's treatments I felt a great relief right away. Her professionalism suggested specific exercises that, practiced with constancy, completely resolved my pains. Thank you very much. *The place is very nice and clean, with a very well equipped gym!”

“Summer is amazing! I've been to her about 3 times now and wouldn't go anywhere else! She always listens to exactly what I want and never disappoints! I like how she is a perfectionist and takes her time with everything she does - whilst still managing to not keep me waiting for hours, it is a super talent! Have already made my next appointment with her. Thank you Summer again! Not to forget the lovely relaxing feel of the salon. Perfect from the moment you walk in to the moment you leave.”

“I got a full head balyage with Lulu. Initially I was nervous about getting my hair done somewhere new, but I was made to feel very comfortable. I wasn’t sure of what colour I wanted the balyage. Lulu was patient, helpful and dedicated. I absolutely loved the result. I had the best experience getting my hair done with Lulu. I would highly recommend her. Lovely lady and she did an amazing job”

“Emir has been my therapist for 2 years now, he has helped me process all the Intense things that have been going on in my life and given me the tools to work out what I need to get to a better place. He's very quick to get to root cause cause of my issues and remembers details of all conversations even from the beginning of our meetings. Thank you, you're great!”

“I did Boxing PT session with Nathan and it was so enjoyable. He's very good, skilled and I honestly progressed so much in a small amount of time. Thank you! Looking forward to more sessions soon!”

“Great company to work with. Thank you.”

“Always a lovely, relaxing experience. You'll not meet two friendlier or more attentive people than Dominika and Karolina. They pay attention to your requirements and offer advice on treatments to suit your skin. Their range of products are brilliant and make perfect gifts.”

“I know Renata for many years and have never met such a professional, detailed and dedicated pmu artist. For me she is more than this as she also does other beauty treatments like facials, waxing relaxing massages and many others so much needed for us women’s. She is an expert but more than this she is gentle and really listens what your expectations are. It is an amazing experience to meet Renata and be treated by her. She really does the best waxing in the world!!! Her brow and lash lamination is perfect-once you do it there I promise that you never ever use anyone else (she will laminate even the smallest lash of yours and I mean it!). Her facials makes your skin rejuvenated, soft, clear, radiant. Her massages makes you feel relaxed!! Her permanent make up turns you into new beautiful you and enhance your natural beauty so please do not look any further! She really is the best in what she is doing!!!”

“Iris took the time to understand exactly what my skin needs, and gave me really good skincare recommendations. She explained the hydrafacial process in great detail, and allowed me to relax as much as I could during the process. It’s been a few days since the facial, and my skin feels so smooth and amazing.”

“Niamh is amazing, she tailors the deep tissue massage to exactly what I need. Her knowledge and understanding of which areas trigger my pain are impressive and she goes above and beyond to help ❤️ I booked for an hour today and it was well worth it! I’d definitely recommend her for anyone wanting a relaxing massage or for help with muscle pain and migraine.”

“I’ve only ever had BIAB nails at House of Bloom, but they are so good I’ve stopped bothering to go elsewhere. They always give you a proper manicure beforehand and pay particular attention to detail. Victoria is great!”

“This was only the second pedicure I’ve ever had, and Peter made the experience comfortable, relaxing and fun . He was incredibly kind, gentle, and made me feel completely at ease from start to finish. I truly enjoyed it and felt very well taken care of. I’ll definitely come back — thank you, Peter!”

“Great service, professional, friendly. Been going here regularly for about 3 years now. Happy to continue.”

“Gorgeous coffee and cake and friendly, helpful service. Only thing I’d change was the lack of choice for gluten free – though the mandarin and chocolate chip slice I had was top notch. Oh! Love the garden out the back, too! Wish I lived closer to visit again!”

“I went a few times for getting some Chinese medicines prescriptions. Good quality medicines and the doctors are kind and knowledgeable. Highly recommend!”

“Beverley is fantastic, very knowledgeable, approachable and has an incredibly friendly manner. Would recommend.”

“I've been visiting Dr Ross since March 2023. They fit me in at really short notice for my very severe back pain. Dr Ross was empathic kind and very understanding. He started working on me straight away and I'm now down to 1 visit every 2 weeks.I would highly recommend to anyone who needs a chiropractor. I will be continuing my visits and following all advice. 5+stars would give more if I could.”

“My wife always goes to Alison when she needs her nails or eyelashes done or a spray tan as she always does a perfect job and is so friendly. I know she wouldn't go anywhere else and has just booked in her next appointment with her.”

“Super friendly, always has way more than you expect (including loads of vegan options) and were way better stocked than Sainsbury's during the pandemic.”

“Potential Problems When Reducing and Discontinuing Neuroleptics Note: The following two sections are an excerpt translated by Markus Kaufmann (member of the expert committee) from Breggin 2013 (pp. 119 ff.). Dr. Peter Breggin is an American psychiatrist with extensive experience in reducing and discontinuing psychotropic medications. There is currently very little literature on this topic, particularly regarding the criteria for distinguishing between discontinuation symptoms and symptoms of the underlying psychiatric illness. "Any psychotropic drug can produce withdrawal or discontinuation symptoms. This occurs partly because the brain adapts to the psychotropic drug and is left in an abnormally compensated state when the dose of a medication is reduced or the medication is discontinued." ``` The following symptoms may occur when reducing and discontinuing neuroleptics: 1. Psychotic symptoms may occur during reduction and discontinuation as a result of changes in brain metabolism. They cannot always be reliably distinguished from the original psychotic disorder. They usually develop within days of the reduction and generally improve after 2–3 weeks. 2. Emotional lability or instability (such as anxiety, restlessness, paranoid reactions, depression, irritability, aggression, and increased energy). These also usually develop within days or weeks after reducing or discontinuing the medication. 3. Sleep disturbances can be distressing and contribute to instability. 4. Movement disorders (such as muscle stiffness, tremors, involuntary movements of the face, lips, jaw, tongue, arms, wrists, hands, fingers, legs, knees, toes, neck, shoulders, hips, restlessness) can, in rare cases, be pronounced and associated with restlessness and anxiety. 5. Cognitive impairments such as difficulty concentrating, attention deficit, forgetfulness, and distractibility. 6. Gastrointestinal problems such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, and abdominal pain. 7. Other physical symptoms such as flu-like symptoms including malaise, sweating, muscle cramps, paresthesia, rapid heartbeat, increased pain sensitivity, headaches, dizziness, and high blood pressure. The extent of these symptoms is significantly influenced by the size of the reduction step. Therefore, it is crucial to proceed slowly and with small reduction steps. Psychotropic medications are far, far more dangerous than the doctors who prescribe them would ever admit. I firmly believe that most people would never use psychotropic medications if they knew how dangerous they are, and I also believe that most doctors would stop prescribing them if they had any idea how dangerous they are. In 2003, the FDA added a warning about the increased risk of stroke to the U.S. prescribing information for risperidone. The same warning followed in 2004 for olanzapine and in 2005 for aripiprazole. Mood stabilizers are anticonvulsants that do not stabilize mood, but suppress emotional responses by sedating and calming people. Psychiatrists have never precisely defined this term. It's no surprise that doctors believe anticonvulsants work for mania, since anything that sedates people helps with mania. All information is provided without guarantee.
