A few years ago I was told I had heredity glaucoma. The pressure had been building up in my eyes. So I have to be seen regularly at the hospital, but I decided to get other help. For me acupuncture was the way to go, combined with Qigong exercises. Well, I am thrilled to report that the pressures are now down to normal. I believe that keeping the natural flow of energy in the body is very important and acupuncture and Tai Chi helped me do this. Thank you Dan for helping and I recommend others to use these treatments.
I've had several treatments from Dan as has my partner. Dan is very knowledgeable, attentive and has a great way of putting you at ease. His last treatment on my partner helped her have an amazingly smooth labour, and speedy birth!.
Before meeting Dan, I was very much put off acupuncture after previous appointments elsewhere. Too much treatment left me feeling more unwell and absolutely floored with my already low energy. Dan has such a magic intuition on how much my body will take and it gives me energy instead! It has also helped my ongoing pain and headaches/migraines . I am still going every 4 weeks whilst I work through many years of chronic health conditions. He is professional, caring and very easy to talk to.
Ten years ago minor damage to my spinal cord killed motor nerves to my legs. After surgery I was told that they had stabilised the problem, but couldn’t help further…I was left with almost full faculties, but with a strange walk! As the muscles in my legs compensated they tightened up worsening matters. Physiotherapists suggested exercises, but not much happened. My wife and I always thought we would try Tai Chi once retired. After a fortuitous meeting with Dan Gorvett, he taught us seemingly effortless 18 exercises of the Shibashi Form. It's 3 months since I started my daily routine, although progress is slow it's been amazing. It has helped with my strength, flexibility, balance and breathing. I am now walking more normally. I whole heartedly recommend Tai Chi Qi Gong to young and old and Dan as your teacher, who is excellent and a fount of knowledge and enlightenment.
After a failed round of IVF, I decided to embark on acupuncture to complement our second attempt. From the very first meeting in Barnstaple, Daniel immediately put me at ease and made me feel comfortable, explaining how acupuncture works and the benefits I should feel - this was invaluable as I am terrified of needles! I saw him throughout my fertility treatment and I can honestly say the acupuncture made me feel amazing; the relaxing side effects really helped to balance out the chemical fertility treatment I was having. I am convinced that the acupuncture with Daniel was a massive help in achieving our positive pregnancy result and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to any other IVF ladies out there. Daniel, once again, thank you so much for all your help - your treatment has helped up to achieve our dream!
