“Caroline is both caring and professional and has consistently made me feel at ease during my sessions with her. Since being diagnosed with ME/CFS nearly three years ago, I’ve struggled to find a treatment that felt both positive and constructive until I was introduced to Caroline, and the Perrin Technique.

Thanks to Caroline’s support, and for the first time since becoming ill, I genuinely feel I’m on the road to recovery from this debilitating condition.

I would recommend her to anyone who has ME/CFS and say “trust in the process”, it makes such a difference!”

I can’t recommend Caroline highly enough. From the very first session, she took the time to really listen and to clearly explain what was happening with my lower back in a way that was easy to understand and incredibly reassuring. Her ability to break things down, combined with her calm and empathetic approach, immediately put me at ease.

What stood out most was how reassuring she was throughout the process – she genuinely made me feel confident that things would get better, and that reassurance made a huge difference. The treatment itself surpassed my expectations; it was both gentle and highly effective, and I noticed real improvements far sooner than I had anticipated.

Caroline is not only highly skilled but also deeply compassionate, and you can tell she truly cares about her patients’ wellbeing. I’m extremely grateful for her support and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone dealing with back pain.” 

I was treated by Caroline from June 2022 to January 2026, having contracted long COVID, and chronic fatigue. I was lucky to find an osteopath who is trained and practises the Perrin technique, as they are few and far between.

From the moment I met her, I felt comfortable, that I could talk about anything, and reassured that I would get better. She was careful to take detailed notes from the outset, and at every appointment, and I really felt that she was interested in how I was coping with daily life. She gave me a routine to do at home, and periodically, I had a detailed questionnaire to complete, which clearly showed the problems and the gains.

It was such a relief to finally find someone who understood me, and who could actually help – which gave me strength mentally as well as physically. At the beginning I had weekly visits, when I could barely walk, or engage with anyone without feeling completely drained for the rest of that day and the following day. Now I can walk happily for over an hour, and interact with people without paying the price. Caroline noticed and celebrated all of the small improvements and wins along the way, and I really feel that she became a friend and saviour!

I came to Caroline about 3 years ago after a bit of research into The Perrin Technique. Following a thorough medical history review and initial examination, she proposed that I was indeed suffering from ME /CFS. I had experienced a significant bacterial infection 8 months prior but had been led to believe I was simply suffering the exacerbated effects of a pre-existing autoimmune disease. 18 months later my NHS medical team would also come to the same conclusion as her. 

The Perrin Technique can seem quite daunting at first. But Caroline’s wisdom and encouragement, coupled with her non-judgmental supportive attitude, have really helped me to keep going. I’m time and energy poor as a busy mum of two young children and often don’t hit my treatment goals outside of our sessions.  However, she never makes me feel discouraged and instead gives me the motivation to keep trying. Whatever I can do will help.

As a practitioner, Caroline is highly skilled. It can’t be ignored that it’s an intimate treatment, but I’ve never felt awkward or uncomfortable thanks to her professional approach. I really enjoy the portion of the treatment during which Caroline works on the bones and muscles of the head. It’s deeply relaxing and releasing. I was getting severe brain fog and pain around the base of my skull but Caroline’s treatments have massively helped to reduce the frequency and severity of these episodes. I remember on one occasion feeling a sudden rush of flow around the skull base as something was released or ‘opened up’. Surreal but very satisfying.

As is often the case, new symptoms and issues develop. Caroline has an excellent knowledge of anatomy and medicine. As such she’s proved to be a good sounding board for any concerns that I have and helped me to formulate plans of action before talking to my consultant.

Navigating chronic illness can be a very challenging, lonely and frustrating process. At times we can doubt ourselves and our experiences. Caroline’s support and understanding has been transformative to my journey.  Our sessions are honestly a highlight of my week. I can’t recommend her enough
