Testimonials
“I am the carer of a young disabled man with Autism/ Aspergers Syndrome and have had a particularly difficult an stressful year. I also suffer from rheumatoid arthritis joint pain. Since having treatments, I have had a lot of relief from the pain in my joints and am sleeping better due to feeling more relaxed. I also feel calmer mentally than when I initially came in. Okayinka is an excellent therapist who has given me her very best over the weeks to help me. I feel very lucky to have had the opportunity to receive this help and support. Thank you to MindBody Therapy and TransmissionUK – much appreciated.”
Satwant Sattee
“I am a mother of a seven year old child with Downs Syndrome and Autism. I regularly have to lift my child in and out of the car which is causing muscular aches and strains and I have been suffering from a lot of stress. Devon has advised me on some very useful relaxation techniques and exercises to helpe me with the stress in my life. Olayinka’s treatments have also relieved the tension around my neck and shoulders and I am now sleeping better. My concentration has improved and I feel less tense when dealing with the difficult situations we face on a daily basis. I am more aware of using better methods to lift and carry my son and I’m attempting to exercise for at least 20 minutes daily. I would definitely recommend massage therapy and I wish I could continue. Thank you to TransmissionUK and the therapists at MindBody Therapy.”
Marcia Goulbourne
“I was recommended to try complementary therapy by Carers Lewisham as I care for my mother and teenage son, causing high levels of anxiety and stress. During the sessions, I have felt the tensions melt away and I feel so much more relaxed in myself and with much less muscular pain. Each session was very relaxing and I could feel the tensions drift away, it was wonderful. Thank you to TransmissionUK for giving me the opportunity to try these treatments – I wish I could carry on and feel sad that my course of treatments has come to an end.”
Juliette Brandford
“Thanks so much to TransmissionUK for providing the treatments to help my recovery after major surgery on my abdomen. I would highly recommend complementary therapies for my family and friends who could benefit from the help MindBody Therapy could give them with long term recovery. I feel less pain physically and the therapy has helped me mentally and emotionally as well. Before treatments began, we talked through which treatments could help the most. This helped my levels of anxiety and enabled me to understand how the treatments could benefit me. Many thanks! The treatments were so relaxing and have helped me greatly.”
Marcella D’Gama
“I would like TransmissionUK to know how grateful I am that they fund Nevres to provide complementary therapies for the users of the Newham Drop-In Bereavement Centre. I personally have found these therapies very beneficial; I am able to sleep a lot better and reflexology has helped me to gain a sense of rebalance in my life. Plus, I am now able to understand the need and importance of giving back to myself. Nevres is a true professional in her approach to carry out these treatments.”
Olive Brade, Co-founder of Newham Drop-In Bereavement Centre
“Samantha’s sessions have been very beneficial for my son, as it has helped him relax during and after the sessions. Daniel has slept better after his Friday night sessions. We would like to carry on the sessions if TransmissionUK could finance a further six sessions as we can’t afford to pay I’m afraid.”
Michael Grosvenor, Father of 6 year old severely autistic Daniel
“I think the Reflexology is brilliant! I noticed differences in how I felt from week one. I’m so glad TransmissionUK have provided this for me for free as there is no way I would have had the money to do this otherwise. Thanks to them and to Nev.”
Angela Baron
“I would just like to thank you all at TransmissionUK, it has been fantastic having Devon and Sarah here. The uptake of their services has been overwhelming and all the feed back I have got is so positive. Everyone seems to be getting so much out of it, and the thought we have waiting lists for people to join is also another good sign.”
Dyane Richardson, Poplar Harca
“The connection between mind and body is so important and often over looked. As an individual who has spent most of 2009 in the house with little interaction with the outside world, Devon’s intervention made being at home more bearable and has started me on the road to feeling more important and believing that life can be worth living. Healing hands at home. Thank you TransmissionUK and The MindBody Group”

I have been suffering from torn cartilage and arthritis in my right knee and have a lot of stress in my life as a carer for my husband. Since I have been introduced to Mindbody Therapy, I have benefited so much from my sessions with Anna and my knee has felt better and I have had vast improvements in my walking, with less pain. I have always come away feeling much more relaxed generally as well and would like to say a very big thank-you to TransmissionUK for the opportunity I have had to see Anna and for the wonderful therapy sessions I have had.

Coming to see Nev has been surprising for me because having suffered with constipation and bloating for years I now have no constipation. Also my daily headaches, which I have suffered with for months now, have gone in the last two weeks! Lastly, I can now stand on my feet in the mornings with all my weight and without feeling intense pain. Thanks so much to Nev and TransmissionUK for letting me have this service.

“I have looked forward such a lot to Anna’s massages with my mobility problems it’s made it so much easier having her come over. Treatments were for general muscle relaxation for pain relief and help with peripheral circulation. Also to relieve tension headaches and help reduce stress and anxiety levels. Treatments reduced headaches and lower back pain which had been aching since having lumber puncture. I’m able to relax and really benefit from the treatments, so thank you TransmissionUK for the opportunity.”
Stephen Griffiths
“The treatment I was having was to help the constant pain in my upper back and across my top part of my back from one shoulder to the other. I have broken both my shoulders 14 years ago and the other a year ago and had 20 operations on each shoulder. Anna pointed where I had the pain and the therapy helped to ease the pain and discomfort a great deal which has lasted.”
