We know how much everyone loves our Vionic shoes and Sandals. But, we also know that not everyone could get to us at the clinic to purchase them. So we’ve learnt some things to bring them to you! That’s right, all of our ex-stock (mostly discontinued lines) is now available to purchase online so we can (customs permitting!) make way for new stock later in the year. Most of these…

1. I know that your pain is real. Persistent pain is very complex and often not related to a specific injury or damage. It is important to remember that your pain is real regardless of other factors that may be involved.

During the summer I was fortunate enough to be interviewed by the gorgeous Nicole King for Marbella Now on RTV Marbella. My section starts at 5.18 and lasts for about 10 minutes. I love the song they have used – “I’m feeeeeeeling good!”. We’re mainly talking about my new Headache Clinic as Nicole’s son suffers from migraines and came to see me. A lovely chat and a great video tour…
