Dear Mr Sommer

I wanted to write to express my thanks for the wonderful Shiatsu and Quantum bodywork treatments I have received from you over the past few months.

After several serious horse-riding accidents, I have suffered with a bad back, a sore knee and stiffness in my neck and shoulder.

Your treatments have had an amazingly positive effect and now my back and knee pain has gone. The shoulder and neck are also improving.

I have been very pleased with the results at first I found it hard to believe something so gentle could be so effective. Other therapies I have tried in the past have often been quite painful, and only had limited effect. Your high level of skill inspires confidence and trust. Until your course of treatment I had begun to think that my back pain would be with me for the rest of my life.

I wish you all the very best, and hope your practise flourishes.

...................................................................

In October I presented myself to Hans-Joerg Sommer’s Shiatsu Practice in Ilkley. At the time I had a vague notion of what a Shiatsu Practitioner does.

In truth I still don’t know how it works-only that it has worked wonders for me!

WhatI did know at the start of my treatment was that I needed some form of support for myself, I was running on empty and felt completely exhausted both mentally and physically.

I am a single woman in her late fifties, a full time academic, and a grandmother having spent the last three years supporting both parents with terminal cancer. by the time I approached Joerg I was feeling ill every day. It seemed to me that my body was letting me down in so many ways and I felt I was heading towards a permanent state of illness.

I knew at an intuitive level that the body and mind are intrinsically linked. this belief drove me to seek out more holistic forms of treatment.  I have attended Joerg’s clinic almost weekly since October, and I am happy say that I now feel restored to my former self.

Looking back progress was slow at the beginning. Yet within a couple of months I was able to feel my stamina return and my symptoms radically diminish.

I continue to visit Joerg for a weekly treatment whenever my schedule allows.  Life throws up stressful situations and heavy workloads and so I still benefit from the restorative powers of Shiatsu.

In summary, I recommend Hans-Joerg Sommer’s Shiatsu practice to anyone and urge that they commit to seeing the benefits of Shiatsu treatments over a period of time.   Ten months ago, when I first approached Joerg, I would not have believed that I could feel as good as I do now.
