A very big thank you GenesisCare, your contribution is very much appreciated. I feel less sluggish, I am noticing a difference in my core muscles and much less lower back discomfort since attending. I leave the practice refreshed and ready to get going. The benefits outweigh any inconvenience and I only have to do whatever I can manage on the day. It's a free blessing for anyone who attends.
