  • Shoulder is ever improving. Can’t believe how much more mobility I have. Less tense around the Shoulder and neck and therefore less tiring. Really happy with the progress.  – Scott
    Shoulder is ever improving
  • On first meeting Bonita, I felt an immediate sense of confidence – I found a therapist that REALLY UNDERSTANDS. 

    My physical and mental well-being needed addressing following complex medical issues prior to lockdown and this reflected in the first few reflexology sessions. There were some tender areas in my feet.
    After further treatments, the sessions became more pleasurable and relaxing. I noticed my well-being had improved. I felt less tense and was starting to sleep better.

    The therapy has also led to me re evaluating my life and making some positive changes. I will definitely continue having regular reflexology treatments with Bonita.
    A therapist that REALLY UNDERSTANDS. 
  • Hello Tamina Hope you are well. I have been feeling fine, no problems at all and the tightness in my neck is easing after two just treatments. – Vicky
    Neck Easing

  • The combination of the reflexology and your kind demeanour has put me on the road to recovery. Thank you for really listening to what I was saying even when I was saying nothing at all. I am so much calmer and I feel back in control again. Thank you so so so much.

    R.W July 2021

    I am so much calmer

  • I had Bowen treatment after suffering with a disc bulge and as a result sciatica for over a year, affecting all areas of my life. I’m now able to run again, work in my office without being in pain, and I am no longer taking pain relief. (Of which I was on lots of prescription drugs). Bowen is amazing!

    Phil puts you at ease and is brilliant at what he does.

    I have also since had the best sports massage ever, from Phil. I highly recommend both treatments.

    Sciatica for over a year !

  • Bonita has miracle hands! I was really struggling emotionally and physically following surgery and after one reflexology session with Bonita I felt the problems I had just disappear. I went back the following day and after this session was totally back to normal. She is extremely skillful and knowledgeable – I can’t recommend her enough.

    Bonita has miracle hands

  • The best intuitive massage EVER !

    I have had hundreds of massages in my life, many very good, a few amazing and lots that were, shall we say, forgettable. Susan’s massage, was without doubt the finest intuitive massage I have ever had. Her pressure was spot on, firm but not too hard. Her understanding of what had happened in my life left me speechless and emotionally freer. I can not recommend her enough. P

    The best intuitive massage EVER
  • Fantastic experienced massage therapist, I felt a sense of energetic healing which translated into me feeling I was moving better physically and feeling better mentally after my 1 hour treatment.  Not your average massage!
    Not your average massage!

  • I just wanted to leave a review for Dani after my treatment this morning.
    Dani was INCREDIBLE. Very knowledgeable, professional and gave me some fantastic advice for my recovery. I highly recommend her to everyone and look forward to another massage soon. Thank you Dani!

    Zara

    Dani was INCREDIBLE
  • Daniella puts you at ease straight away! She is very informative and knowledgeable . She has enabled me to carry on teaching fitness classes with on going deep tissue massage. I’ve had problems with sciatica which she has sorted out for me. Will be letting my clients know about you Daniella.
    Feel like a new person every time I’ve had a massage with her!
    Isabel
    Informative and Knowledgeable

  • This beautiful lady is well recommended by myself, the pain I was in was unbelievable, Dani sorted me out today, thank you soooooo much.

    Chris

    “Well Recommended”

  • After 2 years of failed fertility treatment, just 5 months of Bowen Therapy with Phil at Hands On Treatment Centre has finally resulted in a successful pregnancy. My last Bowen Therapy session with Phil was intense, and I definitely felt changes in my body, sure enough later that month my husband and I conceived 🥰 We are so incredibly grateful for Phil’s support and phenomenal skills!

    We really recommend anyone who’s having trouble to contact Phil at Hands On. We will forever be singing his praises.

    Fertility Treatment

  • You are literally a magician!! Thank you so much for fitting me in yesterday (Bowen), I’m fixed!!!

    Daisy

    Literally a magician !!

  • What a difference a day makes!
    I tried the ‘Old Pain 2 Go’ therapy technique last week with Phil, who is North Devon’s qualified practitioner at Hands On Clinic in Braunton. I hoped that it would reduce the pain I’ve been experiencing over the last four years from Fibromyalgia + neck/shoulder tension.
    The treatment is rooted in the Blake Method (I’ve just been reading up on this at oldpain2go.com – which also gives a great overview) and it begins by identifying the event/s that first triggered your pain. You’re then guided through a gentle process, fully clothed, which works to ‘reset’ the alert signals that nerves may be sending to your brain, ones that are likely to be no longer useful. In a way, a lot like switching off or turning down the volume on a smoke alarm that is continuing to beep long after the fire has been put out!

    I found that my session with Phil on Friday was amazingly effective. His manner was so reassuring as he guided me through the treatment. I woke the next morning feeling uplifted and hopeful – 5 days on and my pain is drastically reduced! I fully recommend ‘Old Pain 2 Go’ to anyone seeking a remedy to chronic pain. Go in with an open mind and you won’t be disappointed.. 😊 Thank you Phil and the lovely team at Hands On ✨🙏

  • The Most Amazing Massage

  • Hi Phil,
    Just a quick feedback.
    Your a bloody miracle worker!! For the first time in months I have woken up without any pain in my neck! I am chuffed to bits, Thankyou so much!

    Just a quick feedback. – Debbie

  • I had the Bowen technique by Phil. wow! is about all I can say. I have a trapped nerve that has been so painful and caused much distress. I went for my first treatment today and what an experience. it wasn’t painless, but it wasn’t painful if that makes sense. the nerve endings were literally flickering and waking up with what he was doing. and now for the first time in a week I feel relief and the pain is subsiding. thank you so much Phil and your magic hands…. I’m truly grateful ❤💚  – Lou

    Nerve endings waking up

  • Hiyer Phil, so I do believe in miracles!!!!! and thanks to you traveling round the world, there’s been a miracle……….I can turn my head right round, nearly 360 degrees!!!! And the ankle is loads better too. THANK YOU

    Miracles…

  • I recently started having Bowen Therapy with Phil at Hands On for a pain I’ve had in my shoulder, neck and back for over 15 years. From the first moment I set foot inside, everyone there has been so friendly and welcoming. Phil works holistically and very quickly established the source of the referred pain. It turned out my whole body was a bit lopsided from tension in my jaw. Phil is extremely skilful, knowledgeable and has an incredible intuition. He was able to read my body like a book and pinpoint areas of tension, that I didn’t even know I had. After my first treatment I already felt a big difference and now, a couple of months later, I am completely freed from all my pain. My body (and mind) feel stronger than ever and my neck has so much more movement than before. As well as his Jedi healing powers, Phil is such a genuine, warm and caring human being. I am so very grateful for everything he has done and can’t recommend Bowen Therapy and the guys at Hands On highly enough. – Vick

    Bowen Technique – Vick

  • I started having Bowen therapy with Phill about two and a half years ago and I haven’t looked back since! It is no overstatement when I say Bowen therapy has completely transformed my life.
    I initially came to Bowen therapy in desperation as I had been having to visit an osteopath almost every week because of an agonising neck problem and my heart and wallet was in despair!
    After only three visits to Phill my neck problem had completely gone! I was amazed because I had been in so much pain for so long. After a few more treatments Bowen seemed to be having a very positive effect on my Chronic Fatigue/M.E symptoms that I had lived with since I was 16 years old. I managed this well by looking after myself well but every now and then I would have flare ups where I would be so tired I could hardly walk up the stairs. I couldn’t keep up with my friends who were all leading very active lives and doing anything fun and active would leave me exhausted for days afterwards. It was miserable!
    But this is not the case anymore! I now am able to work five days a week in a very busy job, exercise four days a week, and swim in the sea at any chance I get. This is a big difference from being left exhausted by a day’s work and just wanting to go to bed when I got home. I cannot recommend Bowen therapy enough. I never EVER thought that I would be able to be this active and pain free and still have bundles of energy. So when I say Bowen therapy has changed my life, I absolutely mean it! I have recommended it to so many other people with aches and pains and chronic fatigue and they report fantastic results too. If Bowen therapy was prescribed by the NHS there would be so many less people on antidepressants and painkillers!
    I have not come across another Bowen Therapist quite as good as Phill, which is why I now travel back from Plymouth to come to the Hands On Clinic.
    Both Phill and Ellie have created a gorgeous little sanctuary in the middle of Braunton, they are beautiful humans that really care about what they do, which makes all the difference.

    Completely Transformed my life.

  • The treatments are wonderful here and sure to help you feel your best but it’s the people that really make it. Always so happy and friendly and go completely out of their way to help … last week I visited and in my new Mumma madness had actually forgotten to book an appointment! Not a problem the lovely lady said and and one of the team, Sara, drove into give me a massage anyhow. Wow!

    The treatments are wonderful

  • I had an injury and could barely use my hand, my arm was also swollen with shooting pains every time I moved it. Thank goodness someone recommended Phil and the Bowen technique. The clinic was relaxed and informal and friendly, The treatment was pretty relaxing and Wow, after the second treatment my arm was completely pain free, my hand back to normal. Thank you so much.

    Arm Pain – Abi

  • Had a deep tissue massage with Chloe and it was absolutely fantastic. Having had numerous massages over the years in many places this is one of the best. Highly recommend and a bargain too! Book, book, book!

    absolutely fantastic
  • I felt compelled to join and write my first ever review because of the Bowen Treatment I have received from Phil at Hands On Clinic. Before I committed myself to having this treatment, I was suffering from muscle wastage, tinnitus, back ache, and numerous issues that ladies go through during ” the change ” and feeling like I was on my way out. The Bowen treatment has piece by piece reversed the degenerative symptoms that had been happening over a number of years in just a few months, my tinnitus has gone and my muscles have grown back. I feel like I did 10 years ago . I share my experience in the hope that if anyone else is struggling with their health, to know that there is alternatives to tests and tablets and with real life changing results..
    Life Changing Results!

  • My son, who was 3 at the time, had been diagnosed with a viral skin complaint that was spreading. (He also had eczema for which steroid cream was usually prescribed by the GP.)The doctors told me there was nothing that could be done and that he could be suffering with it for up to 2 years! In desperation I looked for alternative treatments and discovered Hands On. I spoke with Phil who advised me to bring my son in for Bowen. It was the best thing I ever did. After 4 sessions it started clearing up and within 2 more sessions it had completely gone! As had his eczema. We are so pleased & grateful to Phil for his expertise & fabulous way with our children. I still visit Hands On as my youngest daughter has eczema now but Phil is working his magic and this too is clearing up. All without the need for steroid creams! Thank you Hands On!!

    Bowen‡ treatment transformed my son’s skin

  • I recently visited the friendly and relaxed Hands On Clinic, I was suffering with a very painful back and neck. After only three bowen treatments with Phil I can’t believe how much better I am, I have more movement in my neck now than I have had for years.Thank you very much Phil

    I can’t believe how much better I am!

  • Had a 1 hour deep tissue massage with Chloe this evening. I rarely use the word ‘perfect’ to describe anything. Especially massage! Though, if I had to use one word to sum up the experience I had with Chloe this evening, it would be just that. Thank you Chloe!

    Perfect Massage

  • Be it shoulders, back or knees I could not recommend Lisa more highly for surf related injury recovery. When I first saw Lisa I had been suffering for at least three winters with chronic shoulder blade muscle spasm which had been making paddling agonising. After one session of dry needling I was pain free, then Lisa helped me alter my paddling technique so not to aggravate the weakness. This has been the key to getting me through bigger winter swells. Without the personal recovery exercises specially aiding stability and strength I would have been unable to surf during the best swells of last year. Rich Surfer

    Back in the Water

  • Years ago, when I was nursing, I learnt the value of physiotherapy following surgery and so as soon as I could, following my hip replacement, I started visiting Lisa. Due to her skill and patience I rapidly regained my muscle strength and have never looked back. Two years later I continue to have regular physio sessions which help to keep me fit and mobile. I am well retired but able to do most of the activities that I have always enjoyed including swimming, cycling and walking. Not only is Lisa an excellent physiotherapist she is great company – it is always a pleasure to visit her. I would recommend her to everyone.
    Maggie

    The Value of Physiotherapy
  • Lisa strikes the right balance between providing hands on treatment and follow-up exercises. She is professional, friendly and cares about you as an individual. It is easy to make appointments with her and she regularly goes out of her way in many different ways to try and help you feel better. She is well qualified and continues to develop herself professionally in order to give her patients the best possible treatment. I will continue to highly recommend her when I speak to people who are seeking physio

  • Chloe – professional, attentive and effective! I have not had many massages but yours has been the best to date. I recommend you without reservation

    Chloe – professional, attentive and effective

  • Chloe is a gifted professional body worker. Through setting up a business and two pregnancies Chloe has helped me to looked after my body and sanity! I cannot really recommend her strongly enough. She is committed to developing her practical skills and I am thrilled and grateful to be a part of her journey as a massage therapist and all round lovely person.

    Chloe is a gifted professional body worker.

  • Went to the Hands On clinic at the end of November 2015. I had tried everything to help me with Restless Legs Syndrome – which I have suffered for 40 years+ – including heavy duty drugs, acupuncture (seriously desperate action as I have major needle phobia) nothing helped. I’ve been seeing Phil and having the Bowen Treatment and here I am just over 2 months later CURED!! Yes, no more pain, no more being unable to just sit and relax, YES I can now go to restaurants, theatres, cinemas etc and not have to keep getting up to stop my legs hurting. YES I am not fidgeting all evening and annoying my husband. The clinic is so brilliant. The staff and his wife Ellie are really, really friendly and most important, caring. Phil is amazing and now know why he is called the Magic Man. Thank you, thank, thank you.

    Restless Legs – Vera

  • I have had a lot of massages over my comparatively short life – from blind Malaysians, Bristolean physiotherapists, Thai girls with impossibly tiny and nimble hands, big burly Bulgarian sports masseurs, a Spaniard who had travelled the globe to hone his techniques – and I can tell you that Chloe ranks right up there with the very best of them.

    Chloe ranks right up there with the very best of them.

  • I had a wonderful massage from Chloe, it was very relaxing and she is amazing at what she does! I would highly recommend her to anyone

    I would highly recommend her to anyone

  • Just had a wonderful back, neck and shoulders with Chloe; she really got into the knots and eased the tension , read my back like a book ! As a therapist myself I am always grateful when someone works on me, always things to learn and be aware of.
    It is circle giving and receiving.
    Thank you Chloe .

    wonderful back, neck and shoulder massage.

  • Very, very thorough and I will be going again

    massage with Chloe

  • Being a pofessional horse rider, my body gets a battering!!!I have tried various treatments over the years!!! I have just started treatment with Phil at Hands On!Its the first time I’ve tried Bowen!!
    I’m so pleased to find a treatment that finally works for me!! Phil is brilliant!! Very clever, professional and knowlegeable!!
    Highly recommend to anyone!!!

    A treatment that finally works – Martina

  • Incredible! I could have sworn that I felt 3 pairs of hands… Magic.

    3 pairs of hands…

  • Went in too see Phil yesterday as I was at the stage that I couldn’t turn my head and was in agony.. he sorted an emergency appointment for me half an hour later as he could see how much pain I was in… after treatment I could immediately move my head without as much pain and the following day had no pain at all! I usually suffer for up to a week but thanks to him I didn’t have too. Fantastic service and care! I felt like he wasn’t just doing his job but genuinely wanted to help me.. thank you.

    Emergency Neck Treatment – Katie

  • I visited your clinic on 3rd January for a float and treatment with yourself, whilst visiting my sister who lives in Braunton. I have suffered 20 years of escalating and debilitating pelvis and back problems and have seen more than 20 ‘professionals’ including several physiotherapists, osteopaths, chiropractors, pain specialists and doctors. I have had all sorts of opinions, ‘diagnoses’ and treatments (including injections, denervation treatment, shockwave therapy and endless manipulations) but no one has ever got to the bottom of my issues and I have continued to suffer and lead an increasingly restricted life. It had got to the point where my pelvis would not stay in place and I had a daily battle with pain.

    After examining me you confidently ‘diagnosed’ that the issue is actually with my neck and the referred pain and issues all stemmed from this – basically very tight muscles and tension around my neck/shoulders/head…

    Well…this was a revelation to me…and amazingly, low and behold, 4 weeks on I am still feeling the benefits!! I quit going to the most recent physio I had been seeing weekly for the past 20 months, stopped going to the chinese massage and sought out a local Bowen practitioner near Bedford, where I live. I have been to her 3 times now.

    It is still early days but for the first time in so long I am more consistently comfortable than not, I have already started going for a gentle swim each week – something I have been unable to do for so long, I am able to go walking more, and I am generally able to function so much more comfortably at home and at work. So I am quietly optimistic that things will continue to improve as my body learns to relax, to stay aligned correctly and everything strengthens up… I hate labels as they imply you can’t get better from your ailment so to simply have tension means I can heal completely…my absolute dream outcome!!

    I wanted to say a huge ‘thank you’, although words are not really enough to express my gratitude for saving me from a life of pain. Next time I visit Braunton I will be there for a float and a treatment from you and hope to be getting fantastically fit by then!

    With best wishes and gratitude

    Gratitude for saving me from a life of pain.

  • Four weeks ago I was on crutches, in lots of pain and on a high dose of painkillers. I had severe hip/back pain, unable to do lots of things. Hands on was recommended to me, so thought it was worth a try, anything to stop the pain.
    It has been the best thing I have ever done, Phil uses the Bowen technique,and i am now off of the crutches and the painkillers, and feel pretty amazing. I just wish I had heard about this place months ago, I now recommend to everyone I can and a few of my friends have already been and are getting great results! Can’t thank these guys enough!!

    Off crutches in four weeks !!

  • In 1991 I had a motorcycle accident. Ever since, I’ve suffered from lower back pain. I have been to the O’s (physio, chiro, ostio,) all have been beneficial, but only temporary. Also Pilates and yoga. Again, a temporary fix.
    Phil, at Hands On, after 3 sessions has put me right. I am pain free for the first time in 23 years.
    Phil, I can’t thank you enough.
    The Bowen technique is definitely the one.

  • I’ve had a lot of massages over the years and Chloe gave by far the best deep tissue massage that I have ever experienced. Not only is she very skilled but she is also very pleasant. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

    Best Deep Tissue Massage

  • Such a lovely place. Lovely friendly staff and lovely atmosphere. My therapist was amazing. I had a very good, unhurried, relaxing massage. I felt very calm and centered after. I would recommend it to everyone.

    Lovely Massage, Lovely Place
