Back Pain - Resolved after 22 years
"For me, Kate Bonner's knowledge, skill and approach are unrivalled. After 22 years of relentless back pain and restriction I spent thousands on countless different treatments but nothing treated the cause - until Kate. She has given me the freedom to move and I cannot recommend her highly enough." M Mackenzie.
Dr's relief from Migraines + Back Pain
"I just want to say thank you so much for the help you have given me for my migraines and back pain. When I first came to see you at the beginning of the year, I was experiencing a whole range of symptoms. As a Dr, I had tried to diagnose myself using my formal medical training, but I knew that it wasn't adding up into one single ‘illness'. I had a course of 8 treatments. I now only experience occasional mild tension headaches whereas before I was experiencing a migraine once or twice a week..." N Crowley
Back to myself
"Thank you for treating me and making me feel like me again; for listening and understanding; for treating me as an individual; for all the chats and laughs! For giving great advice - you may not be old but you are certainly wise!" C Rawling.
Have my life back
"Thank you so much for getting my life back on track. You have held my hand through everything over the last few months; something I will be forever grateful for! Your patience, kindness and knowledge are impeccable and I can never strongly recommend you enough" C Parry.
Back is now ‘back on track'
"Seven years ago I severely hurt my back at the gym. After seven years of ‘hell' and seeing every doctor, chiropractor, physiotherapist and osteopath I could afford, I hurt it again in June last year. My life was all about dealing with pain again! No one seemed to know what was wrong with it and I felt very alone and depressed because all the practitioners kept saying different things and none of their treatments worked. Here I was at 30 years old (healthy, fit and active) and I didn't know what to do about my back! It felt like no one understood how I felt or how bad my back really was. I was trying to hide the pain at work and refused to take a day off for the pain but the children always knew there was something wrong (I am a teacher so I am on my feet all day).
I found Kate Bonner through a close friend, who recommended me to her. At first I was hesitant as I had seen so many other professionals about my back and nothing had ever seemed to help permanently. I thought I had nothing to lose as I felt so low, life could only get better. After my initial consultation with Kate, I felt at ease and knew she was ‘the one' that was going to change my life. Kate gave me some research books to read about my back and she helped me understand my body better and ‘how to cope with pain'. After each session with Kate I felt more reassured and she always explained things to me in ‘normal' language so I understood. She has always been very professional and sincere with her treatment. I fully trust her and the treatment she has used.
After a year with Kate, I now feel I am in control of my back and mind rather than my back controlling me. I have returned to the gym and I am doing ‘normal' sporting activities that I haven't been able to do for many years. Kate has changed my life and for that I am forever grateful! I would genuinely recommend Kate Bonner to anyone who needs help with an injury." L Quade
Acute RSI - Typing again
"After months of treatments with Physio's, Chiropractors and Osteopaths with no improvements whatsoever, I was diagnosed by one of the country's leading specialists; with acute RSI (carpal tunnel syndrome). I was told I would have to find a new profession that didn't involve typing. Within 12 weeks of treatment from Kate I was typing freely again. 8 years on I'm still typing." F Brown.
Excellent Treatment
"Thank you so much for everything. I can't begin to tell you how much difference your kindness and excellent treatment has made to my time in London..." A Sutton

"Thank you so much for all of your help on our backs and various illnesses, we are also so grateful for helping us get pregnant..." D Goldstein.
Physio to University "A" Rugby Team
"Thank you very much for your efforts this year with the A's. Ken, myself and the boys really appreciated the time and work that you put in at games, trainings and in treating their injuries. I was really grateful for the updates and progress reports which helped me in planning selections and in managing the players and their well being. We really found your ‘understated' yet accurate and professional manner helpful..." Steve and Ken, coaches of the Otago University A rugby team.
