To start with they were really great, made a lot of promises like they all do at the start, but…read moreeventually you realise that all the promises made, all the 'we really care' 'you can trust us' 'we won't let you down', 'we're not like the others because we really care about you'. Well, it just isn't true after all, once they decide they don't want to help you any more or they just don't like you anymore then you are dumped and left to rot with no explanation, no help, no nothing. They have honestly destroyed my life. I've become so ill and heartbroken after what they did to me. Cast aside like a piece of rubbish. As a vulnerable member of society with many health issues, life has now become so incredibly terrifying daily and almost unbearable. Thanks, 'Your Care'.

They offer a variety of treatment for sports injuries and employ several practitioners in complementary therapies from acupuncture and homeopathy to family counselling, reflexology and shiatsu.

The clinic is warm, comfortable and friendly. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

On Gloucester Rd one can always find places to shop, drink, eat and meet. And many of these places…read moreare relaxing. But to truly relax, to relax into the sort of deep sleep level usually only obtained several weeks into summer holidays? That sometimes takes a little finding. Tucked seemingly out of notice Osna (A Gaelic word meaning 'to sigh') is such a provider of deep relaxation. The work here focuses largely on everyday tension and emotional instability, working to interrupt the cycle of stress. Open till 8pm most people should be able to find a time slot to enjoy either a full body massage, some reflexology or a tailor made treatment specific to your needs. A very enjoyable place to retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
