I first saw Daniel with sore shoulders & tight neck muscles. Within a short time I was pain free in one shoulder & this has now been just over a year. The other shoulder has taken a little longer to come right, but there had been periods during the past year where it was pain free, so I knew we would get there eventually – & that persistence has paid off! I have now been pain free in both shoulders & my neck for about 2 months & it’s been a revelation. You need to put some work in yourself with the prescribed exercises. I now know if I keep these up I will remain pretty much free of pain, or if it does come back, I know what to do about it. Thanks Daniel – as many others have said, you have changed lives for many people living with persistent pain & stiffness. I cannot recommend Daniel highly enough – don’t hesitate to see him.

I first went to Daniel for sciatica back pain that had been problematic for a number of years and it was progressively getting worse. I was having difficulty walking comfortably and had broken nights sleep due to the back/leg pain.

Daniel recommended a weekly treatment and exercise program and after 6-8 weeks I was pain free and had stopped taking the anti inflammatory tablets my doctor had prescribed.

Daniel’s professional and friendly manner puts you at ease and I highly recommend his services for all your aches and pains.

Six months ago I went to Daniel with a frozen shoulder – I now have a full range of movement and am pain free. He really encourages doing exercises at home in between the treatments which helps speed up the recovery process and it has worked for me. Thanks Daniel!!

I have been seeing Daniel for over 3 years ,he has treated me for various injuries to neck and spine. Over a year ago I had a work accident injuring my shoulder.I visited a specialist and had a cortisone injection. This was good but wore off and after seeing the specialist again he insisted that I visit the physiotherapist. After almost 6 months I was getting worse had a frozen shoulder and the physio had run out of things to try. So I went to Daniel, and after 4 intense sessions I am starting to get full movement. Thanks Daniel.

My daughter (10 years of age) was suffering with ongoing headaches day and night. All medication prescribed by Specialist doctors did not work. MRI Scans did not show any problems. I finally took my daughter to Daniel. In just 5 seconds Daniel diagnosed severely tight neck muscles that was the possible cause of these headaches. After just two sessions with Daniel my daughter is now free of these headaches and is without pain.

Thanks again! Daniel for your Genius abilities.

Daniel is awesome and a brilliant Osteopath. I suffered with neck and shoulder pain for a couple of years and while Chiropractic treatment did not work, I finally went to see Daniel. He diagnosed by pain on first visit, and I am now free of the pain in my neck and frozen shoulder.

Daniel truly believes in holistic healing. He has an amazing sense of humour and gives you that sense of feeling just great.

Don’t even think about it, if you are suffering with any pain, do book a consultation with Daniel. He will point you in the right direction.

Thanks Daniel!

I love exercise and extreme sports and over the years have treated my body like its a machine., I went to see Daniel because the pain from one of my injuries is inhibiting my lifestyle. I only had time for three sessions with him and for the short time he has spent with me, I feel equipped to get my body moving again without he pain. He has changed my way of thinking with regards to rehabilitation. I have always used “pain no gain” philosophy, but now realise a gentle approach is more effective to achieving a healthy body, and longevity. I felt like Daniel really cared about helping me, even though I wasn’t coming back to see him for six months as I am heading overseas. I highly recommend Daniel. Both he and Mandy are warm lovely people.

I saw Dan for knee and shoulder sports injuries, and he helped me a lot! He has such a broad knowledge on the body and the healing response that I finally felt I could be permanently free of long term injuries, that before I ‘managed’ but now I see a complete reversal of them. I would highly recommend Dan to anyone, he truly is amazing at what he does!

Daniel has been looking after my lower back for a few years now, i travel to him all the way from Piha to the Whangaparaoa Peninsula for 30 mins treatment.
Amazing results and advice, he keeps me surfing.

From my early twenties until early forties I suffered intermittent but severe back pain. I had seen doctors on several occasions but apart from receiving pain killers this achieved nothing. After a bit of persuasion from family members I agreed to see Daniel. Initially I had regular appointments and the pain eased reasonably quickly and only flared up again several times within the first 6 months of visiting Daniel. I now visit Daniel for a tune-up every 3 months and have had NO back pain for 18 months. Life is so much better without the pain!
