Real stories of chronic pain relief – Living Well Clinic reviews

Real Stories. Real Change.

Client Testimonials

I’m very grateful to the clients that have shared their feedback so generously. I hope their stories and experiences provide hope and inspiration for your own journey.

Most clients featured here have worked with me through the Pain Keys® Programme, which has helped open doors to greater freedom, resilience, and quality of life. Others have experienced meaningful progress through tailored one-to-one sessions.

While individual outcomes vary, these stories offer insight into how a personalised, evidence-informed approach can support real and lasting change in the experience of persistent pain.

The reprogramming of pain signals has been transformative

I was in a horrendous cycle of my ankle having a really low tolerance of pain and a low pain threshold too which caused my brain to overreact. My new-found ability to reprogramme and reinterpret the pain signals has made a massive difference—the muscles no longer panic and tighten for weeks on end. I can apply the same thought processes and strategies to the nerve pain which reduces its impact and helps flares to resolve more quickly.

Anne was really patient, answering my endless questions and encouraging me when I had doubts in my abilities early on. I would absolutely recommend working with her to address chronic pain. Sessions also brought additional benefits of feeling a lot more calm and optimistic too.

The worksheets and audio files were also really helpful and very easy to use! I listen to my Recovery Blueprint often as well as the chronic pain sleeping audio.

CRPS/Neuropathy (Feet and Ankles)

Transformed my relationship with nausea and sickness

I had hyperemesis during my pregnancy and it left me traumatised. Annie really listened to the specifics of my concerns and tailored hypnosis recordings addressing each of these in great detail. I have managed to keep the sickness at bay and can now even eat during my chemotherapy schedule.

It has honestly been life changing and helped me cope with this challenge so much more. We also did some visualising around breaking down the cancer and healing which has helped me and my recent scans have shown some positive progress. Thank you and I will be back for more when I feel I need it.

Nausea & Vomiting (Chemotherapy)

I no longer have a ‘pain’ problem

I felt hugely supported, reassured, and our sessions were more joyful than I anticipated, which also improved my mood! I feel great. I am sleeping really well now and my whole system feels calm.

I no longer feel that I am someone who has a ‘pain’ problem. I am getting so much more done, now I am not nursing myself with hot water bottles! And if/when pain flares, I feel that I have all the tools to manage it.

I feel that I am now in control of my health, and this is huge for me after many bad experiences with consultants who have never understood what was really going on. Without a doubt, Anne has been a wonderful coach in getting me to empower myself. I would highly recommend this approach, and Anne: no better person to help you.

IBS and Back Pain

Before I was surviving, now I’m thriving

Working with Anne has made a huge difference and my progress has been immense. The sessions were sequenced just right, and I really looked forward to our weekly meetings, which were tailored to my needs with the time to air my worries, thoughts and concerns.

The Recovery Blueprint hypnotherapy session was a particularly pleasant experience and effective. Anne has given me the tools, and most of all, the belief and re-assurance that I can reach my goal. I would definitely recommend Anne to others and I am so glad I made that initial contact.

Knee Pain/CRPS

Wouldn’t Hesitate to Recommend

Anne made me feel entirely at ease throughout the whole process. She has a very gentle manner and sincere sense of empathy which made me relax and be completely honest without fear of judgement. I always felt Anne was listening intently and never hurried my responses.

Anne’s soft voice is ideally suited to creating a soothing audio, especially when used before sleep. Having such a positive experience means I would not hesitate to suggest her as a therapist who will offer a supportive role in enabling others to improve their mental heath and wellbeing.

Different, Positive, Enjoyable and It Worked!

Anne was easy to talk to—I felt she always let me speak and listened to everything. She made the whole process straightforward for me and it worked which I was delighted about!

Having been to therapy before, this was a different, positive and enjoyable approach for me and I gained a lot from the sessions. I feel I have been given tools and ways to help control not just my pain, but my over all wellbeing.

Trigeminal Neuralgia

Conquering a 50 Year Fear

Anne has helped me to conquer my fear  and I am now confident that singing will become an enjoyable part of my life. I have no hesitation in recommending her for help with comparable issues.

Wonderful results—quick and effective!

Anne recently started with us but is already providing wonderful results with her work! Her results are quick and effective—we have seen first hand how she has helped individuals at WICCI.

Outshone all previous therapies I’ve tried

For years I had been suffering from chronic tinnitus and often felt powerless in its grip. I now appreciate how powerful and beneficial Pain Reprocessing Therapy can be for people like me.

Anne tailored sessions and audios to suit me as an individual; she was always full of encouragement, support, and reassurance which has had a profound effect, in such a good way, on my life and how I view things in general. I now feel calm, positive and in control—I highly recommend working with Anne.
