  Straight away from my initial call to Paul for help, he put me at ease and listened intently. My main ongoing health issue at that time was my shoulder which had kept me awake for 6 months and nothing else had worked... His acupuncture and shiatsu skills have worked wonders for my shoulder, it is such a relief to b able to sleep better now - at the same time and still now Paul is working on other health issues for me also, which I have already seen unbelievable results from, thanks to his acupuncture. Paul has a professional manner together with a very calming, friendly and kind nature which really shows through his work. I would highly recommend Paul to anyone. Thankyou Paul 😃

  I have been a regular visitor to The Stubbington Natural Health Clinic for a number of years for Osteopathy, and Acupuncture for chronic back pain, sciatic pain and neck pain. I have had back and neck surgery to alleviate the pain that I suffered. I had two disc replacements in my neck in 2012. The surgery eased my pain emmensely but i was left with chronic neuralgic pain on the left hand side of my face, behind my right eye, and a stabbing pain in my left shoulder. I have been on medication since to relieve the pain. Whilst waiting in the waiting room, at the clinic approximately five weeks ago I saw an article about Shiatsu, and how it could treat migraine sufferers. I had not heard of Shiatsu but as i had previously tried medication, and alternative treatments to ease my neuralgia i decided to book an appointment with Paul Bridle the Shiatsu practitioner. What can i say he is a genius. I left my details at the reception. Paul contacted me the same evening and i discussed my symptoms with him. I had neuralgic pain during my visit that i marked as a 7 on a scale of 1 t 10 . 10 being the highest. I was a little apprehensive when during my first appointment, but i had no reason to be be. Paul put me at ease straight away. He made comprehensive notes of my symptoms, and explained how he would treat me. The whole experience was very relaxing that was helped by Paul's sense of humour. After my first treatment for the first time in as long as i can remember I had minimal pain in the right hand side of my face. a 2 on the scale. A eureka moment and no more medication. I have had two further treatments, and my neuralgic pain as i type this e mail is 0 on the scale. I will continue to visit Paul for my shoulder, eye, and sciatic pain, as i have the complete confidence that he will alleviate me of the pain that has dragged me down for many years. I would recommend that anyone suffering from chronic pain visits Paul at one of his clinics. You cannot put a cost on alleviating chronic pain. I can now sleep at night MT

  Paul is incredible; I started to have sessions with him around 6 years ago when my then employer provided it as part of the well being package. On day one Paul asked me what ailments I suffered and what I would like him to concentrate on. At the time I had just recovered from a broken pelvis and this is one of the things that he centred my care as well as my left shoulder/neck as this has always been where I have carried my stress. I have to say the results are always amazing. Sometimes I have constant nerve pain in my pelvis, lower back etc... and a one hour session with Paul always sorts this out. Paul also has a very in depth knowledge of the human anatomy and always makes sure he explains the link between the pain you are suffering in relation to your internal organs and the relevance of the area he is treating so it gives you a really clear picture of how it works. He has also given me a number of tricks to use in his absence to ensure my issues are manageable. Paul also happens to be one of the nicest people you could ever hope to meet; He is presentable, very punctual and a general pleasure to deal with. I have recommended Paul's services to a number of friends that have all experienced the same and I would have no hesitation in recommending his services. Finally, if you are suffering with something that Paul does not feel Shiatsu would benefit he will be honest and tell you. Keep up the good work Paul.

  I was referred to Paul from a friend who he had helped in the past. I have been suffering from acute back pain for over 12 months which along with causing daily discomfort was also restricting every day movements such as standing up, sitting down, driving and any vigorous kinds of activity above walking pace. After meeting Paul and going over the history of the injury and the symptoms he began work on trying to understand the root of the problem. After the 1st session Paul had managed to release almost all of the tension and pain and the following week was almost completely pain free and nearly all of the stiffness had gone. After a follow up session a week later I can report that again, I am pain free with no restricted movement. Paul also gave me some great advice around problems with my posture and how I can correct this to avoid injuries down the road. Paul is extremely knowledgeable and always explains what he is doing and why to give you a good understanding. After spending lots of money with chiropractors over the past year with no long lasting result I can say that seeing Paul was best thing I have done. If you suffer from back pain.........GO AND SEE PAUL!!!!!!You wont regret it. I'm now looking forward to a pain free summer and getting back into the Gym. Thanks again Paul

  I went to see Paul with a certain amount of scepticism about alternative medicine – or health treatments - as I am a Science teacher. I have muscular dystrophy which effects my ability to walk easily. Having regular shiatsu treatments from Paul is improving my mobility and I believe that continuing having treatments will give me greater mobility for longer, despite my condition possibly deteriorating in the long term. Paul’s sense of humour puts me at my ease. He gently assesses my total mind and body situation using that humour. Paul took – and continues to take - case notes with meticulous detail – he was very careful as he had never worked with my condition before. His approach is very professional and I would not hesitate to recommend him to others.

  Paul is a genius! I had suffered from low back pain for more years than I like to remember, sometimes it completely immobilized me. I had been to osteopaths and chiropractors with very little success. Paul was able to get me moving comfortably in very little time and within a few weeks had completely removed the pain. He gave me simple exercises to help strengthen my back and stop the muscles contracting. I am happy to say I have had no significant recurrences since he treated me. Paul has also stopped a bout of sciatica in its tracks with only one treatment. I cannot recommend him highly enough. A sweet, personable and incredibly skilled man.
