TESTIMONIALS – WHAT PEOPLE SAY!

Mrs. L. B., Leeds.
"Isobel’s thirst for knowledge and new skills sets her at the top of her class.  Never one to rest on her laurels, she’s an inspiration and a terrific practitioner.  She has treated me on numerous occasions over the years using a variety of therapies and techniques, and never claims the credit for her successes.  She just thinks that fortune has been kind to her – I believe she has a special gift and well deserves the fruits of her labours."

Mr. J. C., Preston.
"Isobel’s open and relaxed manner make every session informative and fun.  She explains what she is doing and why, in easy layman’s language, so the healing process becomes a partnership – a blending of energies.  Simple devices such as a liquorice allsort and a lump of blu-tack make effective teaching aids, and remind one of her long and illustrious teaching career before changing direction in 1996."

Miss H.A., Garstang.
“Healing Hands is a vocation for Isobel, not just a job.  At Healing Hands, you receive Isobel’s special healing ministry where high quality treatments, time and patience are at the centre.  I recommend Isobel wholeheartedly – a very caring and genuine person.” 

Mrs. A. V., Morecambe.
“As a client of many months’ standing, I can say that – being a bit phobic about painkilling drugs – I found exactly the back pain relief I needed from just one visit.

“I have continued with my visits for back, shoulder, neck and head massage because I know I can now live a painfree life – thanks to those healing hands.  I have been treated throughout by Isobel Hamid, whose knowledge and skills are second to none and whose witty and lively personality adds a joy to every treatment.” 

Mr. P. K., Lancaster.
I have been having massages from Isobel for seven years – I think that says it all! 

Mr. H. O., Quernmore, Lancaster.
“As recently as a couple of years ago, I was of the opinion that, as you approach your 70th year, you simply had to accept that general wear and tear, and the odd old injury, would begin to cause you increasing discomfort.

“Specifically, I was experiencing neck pain in the car and throughout the night, lower back pain due to thinning discs, and big toe pain from an old break that was becoming arthritic.

“The discomfort had reached the stage where it was seriously affecting my quality of life, when a colleague suggested I had a word with Isobel Hamid at the ‘Healing Hands’ clinic, and fortunately I did.

“Without making any exaggerated predictions, Isobel thought she could help and I began to visit her weekly.  Within a month there was a marked improvement in all my areas of concern and this improvement has now reached the stage where I no longer accept that old age and debilitating joint pain need to be endured.

“I am now aware that Isobel’s talents and knowledge go way beyond the physiotherapy that is the focus of our weekly sessions, and I will always be grateful to her for recommending a Podiatrist colleague.  Together they have given me back the pleasure of painfree walking too!”

Mrs. J. B., Brookhouse, Lancaster.
"Dear Isobel, I wish to thank you so very much for giving me back the use of my hand which was severely damaged in my recent car accident.  Your expertise and TLC over the four sessions has brought about a remarkable recovery, and thanks to you I can now put this nightmare episode behind me."

Miss V.H., Carnforth.
"I am a 93-year-old lady and, during a recent short holiday, I fell between a pleasure boat (a paddle steamer) and the quayside while disembarking.  I was shocked and severely bruised.  Four men pulled me out of the water, but in the process they disturbed the shoulder joint replacement I recently had.  I knew that only one person would be able to help me - someone I trust - and that person is Isobel.  She has visited me at home and treated me there, and now I am on the mend and firmly of the belief that Isobel is special.  Long may she continue to practise."

Mr S H, Lancaster.
"I had been suffering 'drop attacks' - blacking out when I rested my head back in my armchair.  Isobel knew at once what the problem was and treated me appropriately for three sessions, after which the problem went away.  She has worked wonders."

Ms J.T., Lancaster.
"My 9-year-old son had a fall over a year ago onto his right hand.  Although there was nothing broken, he has experienced a lot of pain and severe loss of movement - for example, unable to hold a pen, to cut his food, to tie shoelaces, to grip anything.  Doctors prescribed painkillers but no treatment of any kind.  Meanwhile my son continued to struggle at school, at home and at play.  Isobel made his treatments into a game, with rewards for achievement, and he really looked forward to going to the clinic.  His damaged ligaments have now mended and he goes back to school next week into the top class of Juniors, well able to cope."

Mr D.K., Lancaster.
"Isobel has treated my wife, my mother-in-law and myself with promptness, skill and gentleness.  Hers is the first phone number I call when we have a muscle strain or a problem needing physiotherapy."

Mr T.C., Lancaster.
"I am a self-employed plumber and central heating engineer.  My hobbies are martial arts and jet-skiing.  Consequently, I keep getting injuries both at work and at play.  Isobel always treats me the same day when I phone and so I never lose time at work, and I can depend on her to sort out my problems speedily and efficiently."
