" I am writing to both thank you and endorse what i have received as a client of yours in your practice as a remedial massage therapist.
Since the commencement of regular theraputic massage at your handsi have had no migranes of which i had been having several times a month. Your strengths and main assets as a practitioner are your ability to diagnose the predominant problems and effectively treat the area. Even after 1 session i had increased ease and efficiency of movement and felt muscle function had improved. No debilitating migraines since commencing regular massage sessions are proof in itself. I have tried the skills of many remedial massage therapists and practitioners and am sorry that my moving will mean i am no longer able to utilise your services. Your professional ability, warmth and friendliness of personality as i know it in your practice will be difficult to replace.
Best wishes and many grateful thank you's for returning Saturday's back to a day of relaxed ability do do whatever is fanciable!"-

" Jo Callender has been my massage therapist for almost 5 years. I have a regular appointment with jo once every 3 weeks and i have always been satisfied with her treatment. She has treated me for both remedial massage and for lymphatic drainage during that time.
Jo's personal approach is empathic and compassionate and her massage approach is confident and solution based. She listens to her patients and is sensitive to those times when peace and quiet is required and also to those times when an understanding ear is required.
Whilst i am sure i could find a massage therapist who is closer to home i choose to take the 1 hour round trip to continue to see jo"

I was referred to Joanne Callender for Lymphatic Drainage Therapy after breast cancer surgery 5 years ago. I have continued to have regular deep tissue massage for Fibromyalgia, a painful condition that joanne has helped me manage. Joanne has a strong understanding of her patients individual needs and continues her study on other aspects of Remedial Health.
I can recommend Joanne to anyone who needs massage therapy at its best"

"Dear Jo,
I am writing to thank you for the holistic kinesiology work you have done with me over the last few months. When i came to you on the recommendation of my physiotherapist I had been receiving treatment for over a year for recurring neck and shoulder pain. Indeed i had suffered from lower back pain as well and for many years had been receiving treatment for this also. As we worked together using massage, holistic kinesiology and dry needling, & looking at the whole body and life experience, I was able to pin point specific issues which could have been impacting me and contributing to my body pain. The work we have done together has helped me to understand how my history, life situation and self beliefs can work to undermine my physical well being. You have enabled me to unlock and reprogram some of these core beliefs. Jo I have really appreciated your insights, sensitivity and skill as a healer and hope that many others will benefit from your expertise. Kind regards, Sharalyn Drayton"
