Straight after the oriental head massage session, I felt some deep relaxation from the back of my head to my eyes and nose. I felt a little dizzy but it made me sleep like a real kid that night. It’s as if something was blocked for a long time and suddenly opened after half an hour head massage!

Recently I called to say that my back was really sore and had been all day. My first visit to Lily was part of my Mothers Day present from my husband and my daughters. The massage was so relaxing that afterwards when I went to my daughters gymnastic competition I found it extremely difficult to stay awake! After massaging my back I went home feeling a little bit better. The following morning the pain had gone! Thank you Lily. From then on I have been visiting Lily regularly.

I was experiencing some bad shoulder pains when I found Lily via the internet and decided to give her a try. I felt a difference even after the first session. Even got some ‘homework’ in the form of exercises to help things along 🙂 By the end of 3 sessions, I was well on my way to recovery and I have kept up therapeutic exercises to help my shoulders in the long run. I would recommend Lily anytime.

I have suffered from my upper back and neck pain for three months. The blood circle in that area was largely blocked because of my sitting at desk for hours a day with wrong posture. I went to Lily, a therapist that I can say she ‘reads’ her patients and knows what exactly they are suffering from. It lasted for three sessions and now I am very happy about the results. She really deserves a testimonial for her magic hands and her perfect knowledge about physical therapy!

After having a recurring problem with my shoulder I sought help from Lily. I can say that after my first session with her I felt pure bliss. The pain had dramatically diminished, I had increased movement in my shoulder and I felt energised, relaxed and calm.Lily’s hands truly work wonders!

Having suffered from an increasingly stiff and sore neck and shoulders I was losing sleep and finding myself unable to concentrate at work. I booked in to have a massage to sort this out. The first session was very relaxing and started to ease the problem. I booked a follow up session to target the worst areas. I asked Lily to ‘go for it – as deep and hard as needed’. This second session sorted me out, and by using the stretching methods I was shown I haven’t had a re-occurrence of the problem.

I had been suffering with sciatica for several months which was being treated unsuccessfully by my GP with anti-inflammation drugs. I also had problems with muscular damage to my back from a series of lifting accidents sustained whilst nursing ten years ago. Sadly I had shoulder and neck pain which seemed to link to the pins and needling of my fingers.

I was referred to Ling Li by a friend. After consultation, Ling pointed out all those problems on my right side including sciatica are resulted from my 10 years old accidental back injury! Having worked on that, within a few sessions my back and sciatica began to improve significantly. Shoulder and neck are fine and pins and needling on my fingers are gone.

After a month of treatment my sciatica is totally gone and I have no pain in my back and hip and leg. I am very grateful for these serious improvements in what seemed like a chronic problem that I had resigned myself to living with! This is all due to Ling’s specialist skills.

I have had sciatica for some years now, and have tried all kinds of therapy including chiropractors and osteopaths and these have provided limited benefits. The only therapy I have found which has got to the root cause of the problem has been deep tissue massage from Direct D-Stress, and the holistic approach taken has had fast and lasting results. I feel like a different person, and I’m getting back on with my life again without overwhelming pain.

For anyone with a similar problem, I cannot recommend Direct D-Stress highly enough.

I’m writing to thank you for the massages over the last few months. I was really concerned that I had serious inflammation in my arm and shoulder which would require extensive medical treatment. I am very happy to report that after your careful massage the inflammation and the pain went away and although I have to return the arm gradually to normal use it is very much better. I also appreciate the set of exercises you gave me which have been very helpful in strengthening my back and shoulders. I will certainly recommend your treatment to my colleagues and friends!
