Testimonials
As professional osteopaths, nothing gives us greater pleasure than seeing our work make a positive difference to the lives of the people we treat. Some of the many kind comments we've received from the wide range of people we've helped and work with are shown below.
“Since working with Carl as part of the England team's medical staff my back has been pain free. I'd have no hesitation recommending him as an excellent osteopath and true professional.”
David Beckham
“I have known Carl since 2005 through the England team and Chelsea FC. I can
honestly say that his integrated clinical approach for assessment, examination,
treatment and management is one of the most thorough that I have ever
experienced. Carl is a real professional, extremely knowledgeable, kind and
sincere with unquestionable integrity and I would have no hesitation in
recommending him to anyone.”
Frank Lampard, Chelsea FC and England
“I have had the pleasure to work with Carl over the past few years both at Chelsea FC and the England national team. As a professional player, I am extremely appreciative of his continual care and support towards my performance management.
“A true professional, I find Carl clinical yet sincere with his treatment style and approach, and I couldn't recommend him enough to anyone in need of osteopathic treatment.”
John Terry, Chelsea FC and England
“Having worked with Carl Todd for many years on international duty, I have always been duly impressed by the results of his treatment and management of players.”
Steve Lyons MSc DPodM, Podiatrist to Manchester United and England
“Carl has a great knowledge of how the body works and a feeling that you can't learn
from studying. He is the best I ever witnessed and a true professional, which is why I travel the extra mile to get my treatment from him! I would highly recommend him..”
Adam Johansson, IFK Göteborg
“I suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury while skiing and was recommended to Carl. His diagnosis was confirmed by an MRI scan, and he arranged for me to see a surgeon. Following surgery I had a period of rehabilitation under the control of Carl, and thanks to him made a full recovery.”
Ann Clark
“After hearing a lot of positive things about cranial osteopathy, we decided to take our 13 week old daughter to see if it would help stabilise her reflux. We cannot speak highly enough!
“Amanda was great with our daughter before, during and after the treatment. Very professional and friendly, made me feel at ease whilst the treatment was taking place.
“We have had two treatments and the reflux has really stabilsed and we are really thankful for the work Amanda has done, it has really helped us out.”
Natasha Kelly
“Following treatments of cranial osteopathy for glue ear my three-year-old son has been free of ear infections for almost 12 months and as a result has avoided having grommets. The treatment has been a huge success.”
Lisa Legg
“After six weeks of severe low-back pain, as well as numbness and weakness in my leg, from which I could get no diagnosis or relief, it was recommended that I see Carl Todd. He examined me and diagnosed my problem immediately as a slipped disc. Unbelievably, after my first treatment I was relieved of the intense pain I had been in.”
Colleen Prendergast
“I had been struggling with a groin injury for the latter part of the season when someone recommended that I see Carl Todd for a second opinion. Within two treatments there was a significant reduction in pain and improved mobility. Thank you for all your help.”
Josh Bennett, Ireland Under 18s and Gloucester Rugby Club
“"I've played a good standard of amateur football since leaving school 20 years ago. In the early 1990s I suffered what was diagnosed as a hamstring strain, and I was treated for this. A few years later I was treated for calf strains, having felt similar pain in my calf muscles. These injuries recurred frequently and caused me real concern.
“At 37, I thought my playing days were over, but I was referred to Carl who quickly diagnosed the injury as a long-standing back issue. Carl treated the problem quickly and effectively, resulting in me being able to play again almost immediately with better posture and ease of movement.
“I would recommend Carl and his clinic to anyone. I've already referred some team mates, who have been very impressed with Carl's professionalism and treatment."”
Paul de la Salle
“I went to The Carl Todd Clinic after seeing a couple of different physios with what I thought was a muscle strain in my stomach caused by work and football. I'd had this for about a year when I went to the clinic and met Carl, who diagnosed me with a double hernia. My GP later confirmed this.
“While I was waiting for my operation, Carl did various exercises with me, which took the pain away and allowed me to continue my work as a plasterer. After I had my operation, I went back to see Carl and he did some strengthening and rehabilitation exercises with me, allowing me to recover quickly.
“I would strongly recommend The Carl Todd Clinic as after about six weeks I was back playing football again without any pain.”
