Body in Balance

Fantastic experience: This pillow has been fantastic!!

Fantastic experience: Great practice an useful free gift given too which is dare I be so bold to say life changing. Great people at the practice too.

Fantastic experience: Chris helped me enormously with back and knee pain issues, listening and adapting his treatment according to the symptoms. He has a lot of holistic knowledge and expertise as well as his physical healing skills.

Fantastic experience: very satisfied with his expertise,

Positive experience: Chris helped relieve pain in my neck and shoulder which had been very painful after I broke it last year. I found him to be very knowledgeable. The treatment was more long lasting and effective compared to a previous visit to an osteopath. It was more intense and a bit uncomfortable, but the result was worth it! I have much less pain and it is more manageable. Chris also gives useful advice on postural exercises and natural remedies too.He sent me videos of the exercises which was useful to look back on.

Positive experience: Hi Sir Its Me Waseem when i was taking treatment from you i was getting better but unfortunately i pikedup heavyweights again and my disc pluss sciatica started again i will see you again Sir

Fantastic experience: I followed Dr Chris Pickard's advice with regard to taking certain supplements and a small change in my diet which had the effect that I now feel more wellbeing, lighter and happier. My sleep is now perfect, changing completely after years of sleep problems to regular 8 hrs every night. This improvement happened within one week and is ongoing! I am very grateful. Helma Dr Pickards information on reading my blood test was extremely useful. This is based on the latest research backed up by studies, to be able to know early how to prevent health problems in the future. He also provided in depth information about causes for high cholesterol and LDL and what lifestyle changes will help to normalise these. He can also recommend some high quality and researched supplements to help the body adjust back to normal. I am very impressed and relieved and grateful to have been given this information. Helma

Fantastic experience: The best chiropractor, fixing my back and well-being. Thank you

Fantastic experience: I had a consultation with Chris and in 20 mins he was able to give me far more advice than I’ve ever received from my doctor . I know I can beat high Bp myself , I want to come off medication and it’s so refreshing to hear a medical professional in the UK that agrees that we need to treat the cause and not the symptoms ! Highly recommend a chat with Chris if you’re committed to taking action yourself rather than just taking the east option and popping pills forever !

Fantastic experience: Couldn't have been more helpful. Learning all the different ways the neck pillow can help. Looking forward to my follow up session.

Fantastic experience: Great staff very informative, thorough and attentive and I’m loving the pillow thank you

Fantastic experience: Met lovely Osteopath Luke Donnelly. He was very professional and courteous. The surgery is very COVID aware. Practitioners wear masks. Temperature is taken and hands sanitised on arrival. Lovely spacious consultation room. Give him a try!

Fantastic experience: Dr Chris is a remarkable practitioner, he makes you feel as though you are his only client, he is knowledgeable and continues to research and study in his field, and is happy to share his learning, he genuinely wants the best for you, and always welcomes you with a happy smile.

Fantastic experience: Very good advice and information explanation

Fantastic experience: Believing I was suffering from sciatica following an old back injury and after reading an article by Dr. Chris I was intrigued by his philosophy which resonated and piqued my curiosity so overcoming my initial scepticism I made an appointment. I was surprised to hear it was my weak hamstring and glute muscles. I have persevered for 7 weeks with daily exercise stretching and strengthening my hamstrings plus weekly visits to BinB and am in amazement on the progression and just how light I feel now my body is working in sync. I ran up the stairs at the tube station and felt like a spring chicken rather than a has been hen. Perseverance and following Chris's advise has made me feel much younger than my 64 years

Fantastic experience: I have long appreciated Chris' chiropractic treatment and his depth of knowledge about health and nutrition. This is now wonderfully complemented by the Swedish massage that Kelly is offering. I felt really relaxed and invigorated after the session together with a sense of ease at being in such capable hands.

Fantastic experience: Dr Chris has helped me personally & other members of my family and my friends. Always happy to accommodate you and always with a big happy healthy smile. Chris’s clinic is just a short walk from the railway station or a pleasant drive to brookmans park. Bursting with knowledge and always ahead of the game, Chris will rise to the challenge to help find the right treatment to cure or make you more comfortable. He never extends your treatment periods for his personal gain, so you only book what’s required. The clinic does offer block treatment at a price reduction. So again you have a saving if you know it’s more than a couple of visits required. If you’re looking for friendly professional advice and help, I challenge you to look no further, you won’t be disappointed! For the professional help and support Chris has given us (my family and I) I’ve willingly written this review. Chris you’re a legend mate! JDC

Fantastic experience: Walked in with chronic pain from frozen shoulder, walked out smiling & moving my head from side to side. Suffered with hot flushes Dr Chris (as I call him) recommend black coosh worked a treat. I would thoroughly recommend.️

Fantastic experience: I went to see Chris about a month ago for my back and it was the best thing I have done! With ongoing treatment my pain has dramatically reduced! He takes the time to really find out what the cause of the problem is and is not just a quick fix and that’s it which is really helpful and reassuring to dig deep and find the cause! Would highly recommend Body In Balance to everyone!

Fantastic experience: I have been seeing Dr Chris at Body in Balance for a number of years, I recently hurt my back whilst at the gym and was in dreadful pain. I called Body In Balance straight away and explained I was in severe pain, the very nice receptionist got me an appointment the same day. Dr Chris immediately identified the problem and within ten minutes had manipulated my lower back and I had instant relief. Dr Chris also found that I had another problem with my neck and set about relieving the tension, I walked in like an old hobbled man and walked out standing up straight! Dr Chris advised me that I would probably tighten up again and would need to see him another couple of times which I had no hesitation to book straight away. I cannot recommend Dr Chris and Body In Balance highly enough, from pain relief to nutritional advise and dietary plans to lowing blood pressure, if your in pain or want to get in shape both physically and mentally you must book an appointment immediately. Thank you very much to you again, I will continue to recommend you to all of my friends and anyone I meet who is in pain, THANK YOU!!!!!

Fantastic experience: Chris helped me a lot. I highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Collected a free neck pillow and found Chris to be a very pleasant, amenable and informative person. Would definitely consider returning to him with any chiropractic or holistic requirements for general well being. The clinic environment is very pleasant and welcoming. The website is also quite informative.

Positive experience: I've used the pillow for 2 nights so far and can say I have noticed a reduction in my stiffness. Time will tell with continued use as it jas only been a short time.

Fantastic experience: I’m the editor of the world renowned FLEX bodybuilding fitness magazine. Being a former competitive bodybuilder, I regularly need treatment from a knowledgeable specialist. Having been involved with the best athletes across the globe and having and experienced the best knowledge in the world, I knew these guys know what there doing. I was impressed, I featured them in my magazine to help educate FLEX magazine’s readers.

Fantastic experience: Chris Pickard, has been the most knowledgeable person on health that I have ever been fortunate to have met, I like to call him Dr Chris Pickard because he has helped me improve my health & wellbeing more than any doctor. Dr Chris has given me tips on how to maintain a healthier life through movement & I have learnt all about spine issues & how best to look after my spine. I am not lucky enough to live close enough to Dr Chris, to have treatments, however I have seen chiropractors & shared my reports with Dr Chris & he was very supportive throughout. I am a member of all Chris Pickard’s social media groups & with my mindset of Learn something new everyday & keepIng healthy Dr Chris Pickard has changed my life & I cannot thank him enough. I would 100% recommended him to anyone who deserves to improve their health. Thank you

Fantastic experience: Dr Chris is extremely qualified and knowledgeable in his field. He has vast resources to draw on to help sort out your problems. He helped me get through a very painful and unpleasant time and when he felt he could do no more he was more than happy to suggest alternative practitioners. As if this wasn’t enough he is a really lovely, caring person. Thanks Dr Chris.

Fantastic experience: I have seen Chris over the course of 8 years he has readjusted my back and neck to cure my seized shoulders from excessive typing and golf bag carrying!

Fantastic experience: This is a great place for anyone that is in physical pain and wants to return to better health fast.

Fantastic experience: Can't recommend Chris highly enough. He takes the time to really listen to the problem and he has sorted out a number of issues that had been niggling me for years before I went to see him, not just with my spine and shoulder, but also with with my knee. About a year ago I went for an intensive course of treatment with him over a number of months & - touch wood - am still pain-free.

Fantastic experience: Chris is everything you would want him to be as a practitioner. He is kind, gentle, full of knowledge and is always keen to find an answer to your problems - both in his treatments and helping you to look after your own body in the long term. Chris is a mine of information across a broad spectrum of health news, preventative strategies, vitamins, supplements, and there is so much to learn from Chris’s regular e-mails and videos. My late husband and I have used Chris over the years to help us solve pain and nutritional issues. I have no hesitation in recommending Chris - you’ll find a consultation with him will be a voyage of discovery.

Fantastic experience: No one is more interested in keeping you fit and alive than Dr Chris. He has an awesome knowledge and is genuinely keen on making you feel the best you can be!

Fantastic experience: Dr Chris is amazing! He has a wealth of knowledge on all things health-related and will provide support and advice on a range of issues. Thanks to him our Dad’s diabetes is under control without medication.

Fantastic experience: The pillow is fantastic have slept all night which I have not done for ages. Thank you so much

Fantastic experience: Very professional and knowledgeable staff. Relaxing atmosphere both in reception and in the consultation room. Will be going back to continue my assessment and treatment.

Fantastic experience: Great meeting with Chris. He has given me good advice to look into. I hope to return to the practice soon for therapy. Thank you

Fantastic experience: Very friendly and approachable. Reassuring and knowledgeable.

Fantastic experience: I visited the practice for the first time this afternoon . I saw dr chris who put me at ease I was feeling a little nervous. The pracice is clean and the support staff are lovely. Thank you for the free beta pillow i am going to use the techniques that dr chris has shown me.

Fantastic experience: I met Chris this afternoon for the first time. I believe he will be able to help me , so I will definitely be making an appointment. Thank you for the free pillow

Fantastic experience: Picked up the free neck pillow and wow, I’m so impressed. I have now got rid of my normal pillows and replaced with the neck pillow. My neck is feeling so much more comfortable. Being a Fibromyalgia warrior, having one less pain means so much. Dr Chris was very friendly and offered some great advice to help with my Fibromyalgia. I would definitely recommend Dr Chris to all my family and friends.

Fantastic experience: I first went here years ago with lower back pain that was so bad I couldn’t drive to work. Within a few weeks I was totally better and haven’t had any problems since. I recently returned after a bad accident caused problems with my neck and elbow and still the same great treatment. Also I got a free neck pillow which has helped me find a comfortable position whilst driving. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Fantastic experience: Chris is Most charming and professional. I went to see him for a consultation yesterday and he was able to advise and answer questions my own specialist couldn't. I have a bulging disc in my back it's very very painful. I've had pain injections and nerve endings burnt off but nothing has worked chris explained to me why none of that had worked. I'm looking forward to seeing him again as a follow up appointment

Fantastic experience: I have been visiting Chris at this center on and off for many years now. Chris is very knowledgeable and is able to explain your situation in every day language.

Fantastic experience: I am passionate about my families health and as someone who has a son who has ADHD a daughter who has fibromyalgia and Ehlers Danlos and and husband whose health was deteriorating due to stress it was important to me to find the right help. Chris is that man he is a fountain of knowledge and his videos are certainly worth listening to. Chris helped rid me of my menopausal symptoms, helped my husband in terms of his overall health and more recently gave great advice about my husbands back. I have taken things on board which have helped both my daughter and son. Chris genuinely cares about his patients. shame we dont live closer otherwise the whole family would attend.

Fantastic experience: I was skeptical at first after I was referred to see Chris. But Chris has transformed my stomach and ibs issues and given me back my life. Chris is very understanding, knowledgable and genuinely wants to help you. His advice on food and exercise has been invaluable to me and I am so grateful I did go to the first appointment. His staff are also friendly and helpful and I cannot recommend Chris and Body in Balance enough

Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Chris highly enough, he is an energetic highly motivated and compassionate man who really knows his stuff. He has worked hard to gain his knowledge and I feel honoured to be one to gain from this. Chris is more than just a Chiropractor, he is my saviour! When I first went to see Chris I was in a lot of pain and generally unwell and low in spirit, he used his skills to ease the pain and soon had me excited for the True Cellular Detox programme that I have enrolled on, I can honestly say I did not expect so much improvement when only a third of the way into the programme. I have accepted that I have to put commitment into myself to improve my life with Chris's guidance and am really looking forward to the next couple of months and more. Janine

Fantastic experience: Dr Chris is wonderful! He is polite and cares deeply for his patients needs. You're treated as an individual. Always has time to answer your questions and takes his time when treating you! I would highly recommend him and the receptionists are very lovely also. Great place for when you're in pain!

Fantastic experience: Chris is brilliant, iv had back problems for over 15 years, and he always puts it right !!!!!!

Fantastic experience: Dr Chris is a very nice chap who offers sound advice. If you have any pain issues, wish to understand food and it's value or just wish to prevent pain then go see the Doc !

Fantastic experience: Chris Pickard is an amazing guy. Not only a great chiropractor, but very knowledgeable about lots of different aspects of healing, and really cares about his patients. My back and neck have benefited hugely from Chris's work - each time he has treated me I have come away with a spring in my step!

Fantastic experience: Christopher Pickard of Pain Relief Centres is undoubtedly one of the very best Chiropractors I have ever consulted to relieve my back pain and headaches. Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: Hi there, must say that Dr Chris straighted me out both phycially and structurally after a fall - his spoke to me in a most pleasant manner whilst my bones were "cracked" into place - his method of contorting me into different positions worked - I heard crack, crack, crack and then felt my body relex and fall into place - would recomment Dr Chris and the practise to anybody who has an ailment (or even if they haven't) because he has ways of enabling you to look after the body that you have. Would wholeheartedly recommend this clinic and its staff to all who ask!!! So ask me - please!
