KEELEY HAIGH has suffered a number of joint problems and injuries over the years, many related to her career as a professional dancer.
She had tried many therapies, from osteopathy to conventional physiotherapy, in an attempt to ease the pain from two knee operations and a back condition.She says:
“It’s only Bill Crean who’s helped me. I went to him four years ago after my knee operations and when I got the sacroiliac joint problems I went back.
“He runs over the muscles and releases the tendons. I had three courses of treatment and I felt much better. Now, if it gets really bad, I go back to him and he takes away the inflammation,’’ said Keeley, who is now training to be a Pilates teacher and works in Lancashire.
“When you find someone good and someone you trust you are prepared to travel to see them,’’ she said.
Bill has also treated Keeley’s mum, who suffered from piriformis syndrome, a condition caused by pressure on the nerves in the hip, which leads to leg pain.
“She was a hairdresser, on her feet all day, and has had the problem for 30 years. She went to see Bill six times and had really good results,’’ said Keeley.
