My experience with Duncan at Acubody…

My experience with Duncan at Acubody Therapies has been excellent thus far.

His clinic was recommended to me by another patient who has successfully undergone fertility treatment with him.

He is incredibly patient and knowledgable, kindly answering my questions, helping me understand more about my body and fertility throughout my sessions with him.

He has also helped immensely with other muscular skeletal issues that have recently arisen (neck/shoulder tension and hamstring/knee pain).

The clinics at Holborn and Lee are peaceful and welcoming environments.

I am grateful for his expertise, confident I am making progress and that my treatments will lead to success.

old injury help

Duncan really understands the mechanics of the body and is helping me slowly fix an old injury that has become newly problematic. He is kind and it is working!

Highly recommend

I have been seeing Duncan for neuromuscular therapy on an old rotator cuff injury and I am really pleased with his treatment and my progress. He was able to assess and identify the hidden (unexpected!) cause of my shoulder issues and recommended exercises that have really helped. Duncan is really knowledgeable, friendly and professional. He listens to your concerns and cares about your goals and recovery.
I would definitely recommend!

Transformative

I’ve struggled my entire adult life with tension culminating to profound physical pain. It became so normal to me I largely adapted and just lived in a constant state of discomfort. In 2 sessions I was 80% healed and without the acuity of the pain, I was able to carry on home exercises and daily adjustments to make incremental progress. I am so very grateful to Duncan. He is a true healer.

Back and neck pain.

I have chronic back, neck and knee issues and visiting Duncan ensures that they are kept under control, as well as resolving other issues completely. The quality of my life with Duncan’s help is appreciably better

Duncan is an exceptionally sourced therapist with a holistic approach. He thoroughly assessed my injury, pain source, and posture. He used a hollistic approach to treat my sciatica and serratus and provided me with a set of video exercises from a reliable source. Doing the exercise empowered me to solve a long unresolved pain.

I visited to have insomnia and anxiety treated and have been incredibly happy with the progress made since having regular sessions - I started to experience improvements after 5 weeks and now my sleep pattern has returned to normal, I'd highly recommend Duncan.

Trustworthy and good treatment

I've been seeing Duncan for a few months now and noticing a real difference. He is great - amazingly professional and pleasant - and he listens. If you are considering, I'd very much recommend booking an appointment with him.

I went to Duncan for psoas/ myofascial release. My own case complicated by the fact of arthritic injury in the hip. This Duncan was always sensitive to and adapted his treatment process accordingly.

I would leave each session feeling as though something had really shifted, that old energies had lifted, and I was thereby lighter as though windows had been opened allowing a through-breeze.

Duncan paid very close attention to what I reported of my specific experience and provided me with a bespoke exercise plan that I have also found very helpful in the healing process.

Duncan is extremely knowledgeable in anatomy as well as in all relevant related fields and one felt as though one was in very good and capable hands at all times. He is also highly empathic, at all times very present and attentive. One has the feeling that for Duncan this kind of work is a vocation and a calling. I would say he is a natural healer.

Thank you, Duncan, for the great work you do.

Duncan is a great therapist!

Duncan is one of the best therapists I’ve seen - and unfortunately I’ve seen lots to deal with ongoing musculoskeletal issues. He’s got lots of experience across acupuncture and myofascial release. He is adept at applying this knowledge to your specific situation and working with your feedback to help you get better. I couldn’t recommend him more!

I was experiencing a lot of pain from my hip, glutes and calf making it difficult to sit or get out of bed in the mornings. After 10 acupuncture sessions with Duncan I can say that I was able to exercise, sit in comfort and no longer have a tight calf. Duncan explained how the needles and acupuncture works. I’m very lucky to have an excellent acupuncturist so close to my home and would defined recommend him to anyone.

Super Helpful for Carpal Tunnel

I was looking for a solution for the carpal tunnel that was in both of my wrists. I am doing significantly better after four sessions. Very knowledgeable and helpful! Gave tips and stretches I can do on my own at home which I appreciated.

Highly recommend, highly knowledgeable, very helpful, great skills and great vibes

I visited Duncan for acupuncture and I had the most wonderful experience with him. I had been experiencing cramps on my face, rhinitis every morning, headaches, irregular periods, myoma, constant breast tenderness, ovarian cyst, constipation, thyroid node, inflammation in my lymph nodes on my right armpit and pain in the same area (the doctors told me to wait 6 months because they couldn’t find a problem with my exams).

My boyfriend is having his treatments with Duncan and he gave me a gift to try acupuncture and the results were incredible. After the first session all my symptoms improved, I noticed that cramps on my face, headaches, constipation, rhinitis every morning, pain on my right armpit disappeared, and after the 3rd session my period arrived without problems and was normal and desinflamation on my lymph nodes. After every session I noticed a lot of happiness and relaxation.

In my opinion as a GP I think it is important to try acupuncture (if you have small symptoms or otherwise) because you will notice a huge difference in your daily life. Duncan is highly professional, highly knowledgeable, he really cares about our problems, very helpful, with great skills and great energy. I am happy and grateful to him and I highly recommend.

Thank you very much Duncan for all your support, kindness and great vibes. I will continue on this journey to improve my emotions and physical health :)
