"There should be an option here for 5*s above and beyond! Louise has literally changed my life in one appointment. I came out of my appointment buzzing! I usually come out of my NHS appointments crying. I can't recommend enough."
“As a result of recent cancer treatment I now have regular lymphatic Drainage massages. I was so pleased Gwyn offered this service. I live in West Australia and a local Emmett therapist here offers lymphatic drainage massage. When I searched for Emmett therapist in North Yorkshire for when I visit family Gwyn's name appeared. I would highly recommend you to try Emmett therapy. After a treatment your whole body is back in sync and you feel like a new person. ”
