Barn Therapy Centre Testimonials

Firstly Linda is lovely, very approachable and I feel I could say anything to her. I went to Linda through having severe pain, a few months ago. She has given me my life back, its as if I've turned the clock back twenty years. Most days are pain free now, and improving all the time. I can't thank her enough.

Have been seeing Linda for a couple of years now. She is a total professional and both me and my little boy who is 6 so love our sessions with her. He tells her all his little stories and she listens and heals as she goes. Linda has that unique ability to make you feel better as soon as you walk in.

I received some fantastic treatment off Linda for shin splints.she done a full check up on me using body talk and diagnosed exactly what was needed.within 48 hours I had no more ailments.she is a real pro and really loves helping people to heal.when anyone I know mentions any aches or pains the first 5 words I tell them is "Linda Thursby Barn Therapy Centre".a great asset to Norwich.

When my back locked up and my hip gave way recently, Linda was so gentle in her approach to treating me. I often need to have a pelvic correction, but on this occasion I needed very gentle myofacial release before Linda could do anything else. I felt such relief after days of excruciating pain. What normally takes 5 mins took quite a bit longer than usual. I had a follow up session yesterday and I feel a different person. I no longer feel like I'm carrying a heavy burden. My back has improved considerably and my hip is well on its way to full recovery. Thanks so much to Linda for her caring and supportive nature. The holistic approach seems to work for me very well. I feel fantastic today.

I love going to see Linda, she always makes my aching neck muscles feel much better, I find the treatment is gentle but very interesting. Linda is such a lovely person and I highly recommend her.

Linda has on several occasions got me up and running again - or at least, up and walking! - when my body has rebelled against the quite ridiculous stress that I habitually inflict upon it. She listens carefully, both to what I say and to what my body says; treats appropriately and methodically; follows up and cares about the results. As a highly logical and want-to-know-how-it-works person, I am unusually content to let the combination of recognisable massage techniques and the more mystical procedures of BodyTalk do their stuff; it works for me, that's all I need to know.

I first went to see Linda when I had a bad neck that I knew was caused by stress, rather than being a physical injury. She sorted me out in no time, and I have subsequently been back for other reasons. Indeed I am in the process of booking another appointement now...

A calm, relaxed and individual approach to holistic wellbeing. Linda's manner and treatment style leave me feeling energised and positive.

Wonderful, wonderful woman. Linda has magical hands. If you have any aches or pains go and see her immediately. Not only that but she's a lovely lady too. Can't recommend her highly enough :)

After being recommended by my fiance's brother i was a little sceptical about what treatment i would receive and how successful it would be.

I suffered a broken femur when i was younger and have been left with a signifigant leg length difference. I'm always suffering with back pain and when my knee goes i find it impossible to bend.
I had been told i would have to live with this or have the circular frame technique, which would mean a frame around my leg for 18 months!!

Anyway one week my knee went and was so painful i was unable to bend my leg. I could hardly walk uo the steps to Linda's treatment rooms. After over an hours treatment and some pelvic re-alignment i was able to walk down the stairs and i even ran back up to prove what a difference it had made. I don't fully understand how the treatment works but all i know is it does and i now recommend Barn therapy to everyone i know. :)

Thank you Linda - Amazing

I struggled with a lower back problem for two weeks, it was getting increasingly difficult to sit, stand - even walk. After two visits to Linda not only had the back problem disappeared, but also feelings of depression and low self esteem. Linda didn't just treat my back, she treated my whole body, mind and soul. She is as generous with her gift as she is with her time. I'd recommend her to absolutely anyone. Linda K

Linda's therapy centre is a calm haven of peace just outside the busy bustle of Norwich. Her Bodytalk sessios are life changing, and the effect remains for ever in our unconcious minds to direct our wellbring and health into the future. I cannot recommend this enough to people wanting an intuitive therapist with insight and vision to help on any level. Many thanks, Linda.

Having had severe pains in my neck and arm my GP told me I had carpal tunnel syndrome and needed an operation. I went and saw Linda instead and with only 3 treatments of Body Talk I haven't had the pain since. I will always go back to the Barn for any further problems.

For the same reason that none of us can really explain how email works, meaning in a second we can send a message to anywhere on earth...one can't really explain the magic that takes place at the Barn Therapy Centre. They have the gift of healing and physical regeneration that is truly effective and non-invasive. Norwich is fortuante to have such talent at our doorstep.

Well, what can I say about Linda, Having visited her many, many times over the past few years I can really say what she does is life-changing.
Going to Linda with multiple problems I wasn't really sure anything could help, A combination of back-problems, feelings of "lowness" and an overall feeling of pretty rubbish was the task I put to her.
She made me feel calm and for the first time in years actually acknowledged what was wrong, unlike many doctors and chiropractors I had visited. The methods she used on me made me feel at ease, someone was helping,
Linda can locate the source of my problems immediatly and uses the most appropriate remedy needed each time from her plethora of skills.
I know that as soon as I am beginning to feel unwell I need to visit and she gives me a boost of energy and life.
Not only does the pain I am experiencing subside but also long term Linda has worked wonders.
I would recommend her without a doubt everytime as she can always make me, me again.

The bodytalk treatment that I had there was absolutley fascinating and after just one treatment, my complaint went away.

Linda is very welcoming and the environment was lovely.

I would highly recommend it.

I suffered from multiple strokes 9 months ago and was declaired 'braindead' in effect. I had a 1 hour session and really felt improvement. Very relaxing and welcoming. Amazing techniques. I'm deffinately due another visit.

Just being in Linda's company is a bit of a tonic. She is so enthusiastic about helping other people and although her approach appears simple it is the product of many years of studying a number of different holistic treatments. She will assess each case and then apply the treatment/s which she considers will help most.

Her clinic is so peaceful and just to lie on the hot water mattress is almost a treatment in itself - so soothing.

I saw Linda after taking up running and having problems with my left knee. She had already treated my wife for other issues and so I had no qualms about using her.

I was in some discomfort with my knee but was keen to carry on running. I went to a chiropractor who just told me to stop running!

After a visit to Linda and a simple pelvic alignment and I was back on the road, completed the East Coast 10k last October and am in training for the London Marathon this April.

Thanks again Linda - without you I wouldn't be running (or raising money for good causes)!

I had a car accident in April 2009 and was suffering from severe constant pain 24/7 in my neck, the base of my skull and my left arm was losing strength from my elbow down to my hand. The fingers on my left hand constantly had pins and needles to the point where the feeling was going and I was struggling to hold things, open jars and the worst was holding my fork to eat.
I had had x-rays on my neck, undergone a CCT scan, numerous acupuncture sessions, physiotherapy and was on a concoction of pills for pain, to relax my muscles and help me sleep. My friend kept saying to me “Go and see Linda – she will sort you out”.
Eventually, in January 2010 in desperation, I made an appointment.
At that first session I cannot explain the effect Linda had on me. Firstly, she listened – and seemed to understand what I was going through; she believed what I was telling her and did not doubt anything.
The whole experience was SO emotional I was in tears – the relief that someone actually BELIEVED me and that I was not going mad and was seemingly able to do something to help me. I had 3 further sessions fairly close together, and by the end of that the pain in my neck, skull and arm was almost gone; the feeling was coming back into my fingers. I was no longer taking ANY medication – at the hospital they had advised me that I needed surgery on my elbow to stop the loss of feeling in my fingers!
A year on and I am back to the person I used to be – my family, friends and work colleagues can’t believe the change. I try to see Linda on a monthly basis, though this is not always possible, I fit it in when I can. Linda is such an amazing, caring and very talented person – I am fascinated by what she has done for me and what she can do for other people. All I can say is that I can never thank Linda enough for what she has done for me. After every session I feel like a “new” person – I cannot recommend her enough.

Linda is known as healing hands in our family, Linda has the warmth and beautiful personality to make you feel calm and relaxed.
The Barn its self is so peaceful and relaxed, You never want to leave!!
Lindas Magical Hands are amazing from Tapping to Hot stone treatments and so so much more.
Lindas so talented and is learning new things all the time.
Its also such a treat wether healing or just pampering.
Thankyou Linda for listening and caring love Lisa x

Barn Therapy Centre is one of the most inspirational clinics I have every had contact with. Linda is always welcoming, naturally caring and always there to assist and nurture. She encourages all and is a born networker who takes pleasure in connecting people together.

I decided to go and see Linda after suffering on and off persistent pain around my shoulders. Having tried all the expected routes like the chiropractor, massage and GPs, I thought I would try something different. I put myself in the hands of Linda and came away feeling a relief I hadn't felt for a long while. The combination or Bodytalk with Myofascial Release was fantastic and the effects of the treatment have (so far) lasted for 3 weeks. I am thoroughly looking forward to my next treatment because as well as feeling chilled afterwards, the surrounding of the clinic makes you feel calm and ready to face the world again.

I would highly recommend Linda and the work she does. I have several friends who have been suffering for quite a while because of a variety of problems. One friend now regularly visits Linda at the Barn Therapy Centre and each time comes back rejuvenated and full of praise for the work that Linda has put into the treatment for her back. Linda listens to her on each visit and changes the treatment accordingly.
Another friend received treatment for her hand, that has helped immediately.
It is a wonderful feeling that you can receive treatment and get such great results and I recommend Linda to everyone at every opportunity.

I have had 3 or four treatments with Linda and I have to say that she has a 'toolbox' of many and varied therapies which she use with clarity and insight , all of which treat every individual as a unique case which is exactly what we are, each one of us an individual, with different needs I have always admired Linda for the way that she delivers her treatments she has compassion and warmth which she imparts to her clients from the heart ..a true treasure.
