I hold a Bsc (Hons) degree in physiotherapy and am an active member of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP) as well as the Acupuncture Association of Chartered Physiotherapists (AACP). After gaining experience in various fields of physiotherapy in Belgium and the UK, I started working as a Metropolitan Police Physiotherapist in 1998.

Sleeping on your back is the master position for posture correction. When lying on your back gravity pulls your head and shoulders down and straightens your spine back into the correct 'S' shape. Your head needs to be at the right height. If your pillow is too thick, your head will be elevated and this will result in a hunched back.
The side sections prevent excessive turning of your head and reduce the lifting of your arms and shoulders. Raising your shoulders will cause muscle shortening above your shoulders (stiff neck and shoulders). Raising your arms will cause trapped nerves and blood vessels (numbness, pins and needles).
The 3DS Posture Pillow is a posture correction pillow that will assist you in better positioning your body throughout the night. If your posture is incorrect, an adaptation period may be required.* When lying on your back, make sure the 3DS Posture Pillow is in contact with your shoulders. Step 1 and 2 combined will enable the 3DS Posture Pillow to gently stretch your shoulders down while you sleep.

Izzel never fails to impress me!!!
His advice, therapy and after care is the best I've ever received!!
I've seen him for a back issue that has plagued me for years, numerous visits to chiropractors, osteopath's, physics, masseuses... The problem kept reoccurring,
However then I went to see Izzel and it's changed my life , no longer have the concern of my back spasms as they've completely stopped. I just go back every now and again when my back is tight and Izzel frees it all up for me every time!
Overall I'd highly reccomend this service!

Izzel is a miracle worker. I twisted my lower back and was in pain for days before I came across the other glowing reports for him in one of the Facebook groups I'm a part of. I'm so glad that I went to see him. After 4 treatments, I was good as gold. He is extremely thorough in figuring out what the problem is and you come away not only feeling better, but also with some helpful tips and exercises to do at home because, get this, he doesn't want you to hurt yourself again and come back! I'm now seeing him for my scoliosis. He is helping me with exercises and also a monthly 'check up' to make sure

I was impressed from the outset by Izzel's professionalism, breadth of knowledge and very personable and caring manner. He gave me confidence that he would be able to help me and indeed he did. In as little as 8 sessions he made a significant difference to my back, leg and foot pain and helped me to understand what was going on with me as, never having experienced the pain before, I was quite bewildered by it. Thanks to him, I am now much improved. I only hope I am wise enough to continue applying the knowledge he gave me in terms of everyday movements, posture etc! Thank you Izzel. I will not

Izzel healed my ankle after ligament surgery. He successfuly re built my strength and flexibility allowing me to continue football and other sports. He also maintains my back, releasing tight spots and eliminating discomfort. I have recommended Izzel to friends and family for treatment of various ailments.

I work in a nursery which is very physically demanding as a lot has to be done on a lower level with young children. For a long time I suffered with back pains until the point where I could not function or work for a week. Izzel gave me a thorough initial consultation followed by very effective treatments and finally preventive advice to use on a day to day basis namely the correct posture to adopt for any specific movement throughout the day and night.
I like how passionate he is about making you better and keeping you healthy on a long term.
His advice and treatments are worth every penny.
