What Happens in Your First Session.
Most people who arrive here have already tried physio, osteopathy, chiropractic, or rehab. They’ve been told nothing is seriously wrong. But something clearly is.
In your first session, we assess your nervous system to find what everyone else has missed. Not where it hurts – what’s actually driving it. We’ve found the answer for people who’d been searching for years. A teenager whose pain started after a routine operation. An 83-year-old whose back had been deteriorating for decades from a collarbone fracture nobody had ever connected. A woman who’d seen hundreds of health professionals over 20 years and described her life afterwards as unrecognisable.
We explain what we find in plain English. No jargon, no mystification. You leave knowing exactly what’s been driving this – and what the path forward looks like.
We don’t always find everything in 15 minutes. But we almost always find something. And that something changes the entire conversation about what’s possible for you.
Why This Works When Other Treatments Have Not
Most treatments focus on where it hurts. They try to release the muscle, mobilise the joint, reduce the inflammation. And it helps – for a while. Then it comes back. That’s not because the treatment failed. It’s because it was never addressing what was actually driving the problem.
Your nervous system controls everything. When it perceives a threat – whether that’s an old injury, an unresolved pattern, or something that happened years before the pain even started – it creates symptoms to protect you. Treating the symptoms without finding the threat is why so many people end up back where they started.
In your first session we test the information your nervous system is actually using. We find the receptor faults, the misread signals, the patterns your brain has been running on repeat. When we correct those, the symptoms have no reason to stay.
This is why people who’ve tried everything else often respond to this approach immediately. Because for the first time, someone is asking the right question.
Is This Right for You
- Your pain keeps returning despite treatment and you want to understand why
- Your symptoms feel unpredictable and you cannot identify what makes them better or worse
- Movement makes you second-guess yourself because you do not trust your body
- You have been told there is nothing wrong on your scans but something is clearly not right
- You have tried physiotherapy, osteopathy, chiropractic, massage or other treatments with only temporary improvement
- You want to understand the root cause rather than just managing symptoms
- You are an athlete or active person whose performance has plateaued and you cannot work out why
- You have a niggle that will not go away no matter how much rest you give it
If this sounds like you, a taster session will give you clarity. In 18 years we have rarely found a situation where the right question wasn’t also the missing one.
TESTIMONIALS - EXPERIENCES
What Clients Have Experienced
Katelin, 15, came to us 6 months after a routine appendectomy. Constant pain in her lower abdomen, back, groin and legs. MRI, CT, ultrasound, X-ray, blood tests – all clear. She was on six medications including codeine. Her school attendance had collapsed and she’d stopped training for the junior world cup football squad she’d worked years to make. Her mum emailed us after trying everything else. In the first session we found an infected surgical scar nobody had identified. Three sessions later her pain had reduced significantly and she was back training.
– Katelin, Newcastle
Sheila had been bent double when she walked in. Four spinal surgeries behind her, months of worsening pain since a fall down the stairs. She kept pointing to her hip – that’s where it hurt, that’s where it made sense. Towards the end of the session, she hadn’t tried to move. Nothing was forced. She shuffled slightly, sat upright, looked up and said “Sam, I feel better.” The cause wasn’t her hip. It was a bump to her head from the fall that nobody had ever connected to anything.
– Sheila, North Tyneside
Jill came to us at 77, bent double, unable to walk more than a few steps. She’d seen a physiotherapist, an osteopath, an acupuncturist, and a spinal consultant. Surgery had been ruled out. Her GP had run out of options. Within her first session she felt hope for the first time in years. Three years on, she is 79, pain-free, back riding horses and playing squash twice a week with her brother. She now lifts a 32kg kettlebell for reps – a weight most men find challenging.
– Jill, Newcastle
From Doubled Over In Pain To Strong And Capable
During Sheila's first diagnostic session, we assessed ten specific areas, and treated what needed help. Towards the end, she sat up. Something had visibly changed. She told me the pain had massively subsided - and I could see her trying to make sense of what had just happened. That moment told me everything.Then there's Jill:
Jill is 79. She came to us bent double, unable to walk more than a few steps. She now lifts a 32kg kettlebell for reps. This is what happens when you find what's actually been missed.
What Happens After
If what we find confirms this is the right approach for you, most people choose to move straight into a full first session on the same day. That’s the fastest way to start making progress, and it’s what the majority of people do.
For those ready to commit to full resolution rather than ongoing management, we offer the Breakthrough Experience – a 3-month programme that doesn’t just get you out of pain, but rebuilds your system so it stays that way. It works across all five layers driving your symptoms: your nervous system, immune system, musculoskeletal patterns, relational history, and the emotional weight your body has been quietly carrying. This is for people who are done managing and ready for the problem to actually be solved.
And for those who want to go further still – past pain relief, into genuine optimisation – the Breakthrough Experience is also the beginning of that journey. The clients who stay on this path don’t think of it as treatment anymore. They think of it as the best investment they make in themselves.
The taster session is where we find out whether that’s possible for you. It almost always is.
Practical Information
Your taster session takes 15 to 20 minutes. Wear comfortable clothing that you can move in. Shorts and a t-shirt or gym wear are best. We may need to see how your knees or shoulders move, so avoid tight denim or restrictive clothing. If you have recent scans or reports, bring them along, though they are not required.
We are located at 47 Dukesfield, Shiremoor, Tyne and Wear, NE27 0DR. There is free parking directly outside the clinic. We are easily accessible from the A19 and A1, serving Newcastle, North Tyneside, Whitley Bay, Tynemouth, Wallsend, Killingworth, Cramlington and surrounding areas.
Sessions are available throughout the week. When you submit your booking request, we will contact you within 24 hours to confirm a time that suits you.
Cancellation Policy
Please give us at least 24 hours notice if you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment. We do not charge for late cancellations, but please give us notice so someone else can use the slot. Contact us by phone, email or WhatsApp to reschedule.
Taster Session FAQs
What is a taster session?
A short 15-minute diagnostic session to identify likely drivers behind your pain or restriction, explain our approach, and advise the best next step. Many people choose to continue into a full session immediately.
Can I be treated in the same visit?
Yes. If it is appropriate and you want to proceed, we can move straight into a full assessment and treatment after the taster. Most people do choose to go ahead straight away.
What should I wear and bring?
Comfortable clothing you can move in. Bring any recent scans or reports if you have them.
Will I get exercises?
From a taster session no. After a full treatment session you may be given brain based exercises to do that help your body and brain work well so that your results last. These are usually only needed to be completed in the first week of treatment. Some people may require more time. Whatever you need, it will be bespoke to you and what your body and nervous system require to move well.
Is this suitable for headaches or long-standing pain?
Yes. We work with persistent pain and headaches by testing and changing the information your nervous system uses, then re-testing movement to confirm change.
