I have been seeing Jan for reflexology for the last 3 years. In that time she has helped me with many ailments, from anxiety, thyroid issues, IBS, sleeplessness, and now, she is helping me through breast cancer. It has been a torrid time for me, and I really look forward to Jan’s treatment as I feel so much more at peace with myself after. The treatment last week was nothing short of amazing. I walked in to her clinic feeling tired, miserable, ugly, (I had a mastectomy the previous week) constipated, and generally just at a low ebb. I walked out a different person. Reflexology always makes me feel like I’m walking on air, but to add to that I was energised, relaxed in my shoulders, (very unusual for me!) and felt more confident that I could cope with one breast. After a wonderful sleep, I woke up to considerably less pain from my operation site, and I had more range of motion in my arm, despite not having taken my medication so far that day. I have had many reflexologists over the years, due to the fact that I move areas with my job, but I can honestly say that Jan has been the most professional and efficient therapist that I have tried. I highly recommend her and would definitely travel to see her if I have to move away again.

Erin who is nearly 2 years old has been suffering from constipation for quite a long time. She sometimes finds it unbearable to sit down and will scream in agony, constantly holding on tightly to any pieces of furniture: "Jan, I just wanted to say a big thank you for yesterday's Bowen treatment you gave to Erin. As you predicted, Erin had a nice sleep when she got home and she had a bowel movement. She had already been in the morning so for her to go twice in one day is unheard of, so she was a very happy little girl yesterday.
Today, she has already had two bowel movements, which is unusual and unheard of, once she has been she doesn't go again for another few days so again this is a breakthrough for us. You are now known as miracle worker in our household and I have been singing your praises all day".

My wife had previously visited you for both Reflexology and Bowen treatment regarding her bad back and had been amazed at the effectiveness that the Bowen had on eliminating it. I too had suffered back pain for quite some time, but have to admit was somewhat dubious about having treatment of this type. After many months I finally gave in and said I would give Reflexology a try. It was the best thing I did as it worked a treat! I now have Reflexology once a month if I need it or not as it is also very relaxing. Thanks Jan

Jan, just wanted to let you know how much of a difference you have made to my son this week after his Bowen session with you.
He has been really hyper and quite a handful for the last couple of weeks. After the Bowen therapy he came home and had a tantrum that lasted at least 20 minutes, and was very hard to calm down and then he fell asleep very early. He was extremely hyper on Friday and then again this morning.
However, this afternoon I took him to a party and he was so well behaved, I didn't have to tell him off at all. He was like an angel, he even sat and ate all his food at the party and didn't get up once. Foods that normally made him hyper didn't react with him. He did sound a bit chesty when eating, which he does when he reacts, but to not have an immediate hyper reaction was amazing. When he came home he was so well behaved and went to bed with no problems.
I just wanted to let you know what a difference you have made!
Thanks so much! Natalie - High Wycombe, Bucks.
Jan, I cannot thank you enough for helping me in my time of need, my back is now a thing of the past I have never felt better after receiving Bowen with you. Rarely do you find someone who understands and is able to put their charges at ease especially when they are in such pain.
Thank you Tim H - Marlow, Buckinghamshire.
Hi Jan, just thought I would let you know what a wonderful person you are. Whatever you did for me yesterday, you need to bottle it and sell it – you will make millions!!!!! I feel great. I havn't taken any pain killers since yesterday, my neck feels so much better. I have felt so ill with the pain since Sunday and have been clock watching so that I can take my next pain killer. Thank you so much. If Hollie feels this great after every treatment then I will be bringing her to see you for a very long time. You are a very kind very clever lady and Hollie and I appreciate everything that you do for us.
Sharon P Aylesbury, Bucks.
Jan - Just a quick note to thank you so much for sorting me out yesterday - it was brilliant that you had that cancelled appointment available just when I needed it.
I am in absolute awe of what you have done. Having been in serious trouble with my back yesterday, I have not a trace of pain today and apart from a little stiffness here and there, my movements are quite unrestricted and I have no discomfort whatever.
It is quite extraordinary and simply confirms what I have read in a number of places about the effectiveness of the Bowen Technique. I wish I had taken the plunge to give it a try years ago, instead of plodding on with conventional physio.
In case you hadn't guessed by now (!) I am completely sold on it, and I look forward to the further appointment next Friday as agreed.
Many many thanks. Mr C W - Jordans, Bucks.
Max who is 4 years old and has been suffering from asthma for nearly 2 years, has greatly benefitted from his regular Bowen Clinic visits with Jan. His asthma has been kept "under control" and despite two viral induced asthma coughs these have not developed into breathing difficulties which would normally have occurred resulting in hospital admission. He has stayed relatively well since June 2007 since he started having The Bowen Technique is always delighted to see Jan his "massage lady". She has a special way with children and Max enjoys how the Bowen Technique is "performed". He has shot up 4cms since starting and eats more enthusiastically! I certainly feel he would benefit from future visits to assist his asthma during the coming winter months - the Bowen Technique is giving me some reassurance that we may not be in hospital (in frightening circumstances with breathing difficulties) so much this winter. Thanks so much to Jan.

I had heard that reflexology could sometimes help to turn baby in the womb, I was 38 weeks pregnant and my baby was breach, I was very upset and did not want a caesarean section. The medical profession said that the baby was in an awkward position in the womb and would probably not turn on his own, not wanting a caesarean section, I turned to Jan for some reflexology sessions. I felt great after the session and that evening my baby turned – it was a big movement – like he just “picked himself up and turned”. After my first reflexology session Jan suggested another reflexology appointment a day before the dreaded caesarean section. The day of my second reflexology appointment I went into labour, but was sent home as the labour pains went off, I kept my appointment with Jan and a few days later went into labour naturally. I had a beautiful baby boy, he came on his own without being induced. I am sure the reflexology sessions worked miracles. Thanks Jan.

Reflexology with Jan is something I genuinely look forward to on a regular basis. I started looking at alternative medicine when I was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis and use Reflexology as one way to keep the flare ups at bay. Reflexology with Jan is an experience that leaves me floating out of the door totally relaxed. The hour I have spent starts with a relaxed chat that evolves into near sleep tranquillity with ones feet being massaged often creating pleasant tingling sensations in ones head as the nerve impulses connect from the feet to the brain. This all happens to relaxing music and ends with Jan's feedback of what is wrong throughout ones body (even if you haven't mentioned it - she knows!) and then often some tips on what can be done to fix symptoms.....I can not recommend her more highly. Ben B. Radnage, Bucks.
Bowen is essentially a gentle treatment for the total body and so it was my choice when I suffered intense pain in my right shoulder, upper arm and hand to have Bowen. After the first treatment I had immediate relief and now, after 4 treatments, I am almost pain-free. Simultaneously there has been noticeable improvement in the nasal area and my general body movement is much more flexible which, at 87 years, is a Bowen bonus.

I had heard about the benefits of reflexology for both Mum and baby for having a healthy pregnancy and also in preparing for labour. I looked on the internet and found a practitioner and went excited to my first appointment. Unfortunately it was a disaster – the therapist talked all the way through the treatment and we didn’t click. I felt despondent but didn’t give up and eventually found Jan.
From the first moment I knew that I had made a lucky find. Jan is a therapist and a healer in the true sense of the word and I left the first treatment feeling elated!
During my pregnancy I saw Jan once a month and she helped me relieve both physical symptoms e.g. heartburn, lower back and pelvic pain and also emotional stresses. In the final weeks I saw Jan once a week to help prepare for labour and hopefully bring the baby on time!
I went into labour naturally four days after my due date – which according to my NCT teacher is the most common time and therefore the norm! I had a straight forward labour with no medical intervention. The only pain relief methods I used were a TENS machine and water. Charlie was born in the water after ten hours of labour. People are amazed when I tell them that my first baby came on time, that I didn’t tear, had no stitches and that my labour was only ten hours. Charlie is a calm, alert, happy baby and I am a happy Mum. Thanks Jan, my very own white witch!

When I became pregnant for the first time I was like so many first-time mummys, full of excitement, apprehension and the desire to do my absolute best for my unborn child and me. I read so many magazines and pregnancy books which often gave conflicting advice! But I always found that wherever REFLEXOLOGY was mentioned they talked about how this treatment can help reduce the time you are in labour. I had never tried reflexology but had heard from a friend (who also visits Jan) that it is SO relaxing - just what I need I thought, some well deserved pampering with a possible added bonus of benefiting me in labour and possibly my baby. So I began a series of treatments with Jan. She put me at ease immediately - within half an hour I was snoring away! (and I never snore usually!) I didn't pin my hopes on Jan being able to help reduce the time I spent in labour but just took each session as an hour all about ME TIME! Then my due date was upon me and low and behold my gorgeous little boy appeared after only 6 hours labour (including the pushing) AND on his due date AND no forceps or other such contraptions! I really can't say whether reflexology did all these things but all I do know is - out of 14 people I have met through anti-natal classes, I am the only one whose baby was on time and I had the shortest labour by a full 5 hours. I leave it up to you to decide but I thoroughly recommend Jan's reflexology treatment for the whole pampering experience."......Karen, High Wycombe.
I have just finished having radiotherapy treatment for breast cancer. During a session of reflexology with Jan, I mentioned that I was feeling very bloated and generally uncomfortable with water retention. Jan recommended a course of three treatments of the Bowen Technique. This was my first experience of this technique and even though Jan had fully explained what was going to happen the first treatment was quite disconcerting. The second and third treatments were much less so because I knew what to expect.
The treatments are painless, non interventional and relaxing (maybe that's just lying down in a quiet room!). After the first treatment I was aware of a marked increase of `night sweats` and hot flushes during the day. These also occurred after the second and third treatment but not to such a degree. For the first two nights after every treatment my sleep was disturbed considerably; this did settle down and again and was not so severe after the second and third treatments. I had the treatments on a Monday for three consecutive weeks and each week on the Thursday I felt extremely tired.These effects aside, I felt so much better. The swollen, bloated feeling I had been experiencing had gone. I peed for England on the day after the treatment and found that if I did not keep my fluid intake up I became quite headachy. As an `extra` - little irritations like a painful jaw and aching neck were also put right with Bowen.
I have had massage and reflexology with Jan Conran for the last four years and Bowen was a new experience for me. Jan has always been very straight with me and I trust her judgement and opinions. Her application of the Bowen Technique is as well carried out as her massage and reflexology and it certainly worked for me. I would not hesitate to recommend it as a treatment for pain, stress and physical discomfort.
I have known Jan for the last four years and would now consider her to be a friend as well as an excellent therapist. She is always very professional and honest. She never falters from `telling it as it is`. These are qualities I admire. On top of this, she gives a wonderful massage and, my favourite treatment, reflexology.
Lindsey W. Stokenchurch, Bucks.
After three and a half years on a walking stick, with a very painful knee problem and two stays in hospital and numerous visits to Hospital Consultants, drugged up to the eyes with pain killers all to no avail, I resigned myself to a life hobbling about in pain. Jan Conran suggested I try the Bowen Technique. I was a sceptic and after the first treatment this didn't change my mind. After the second session of Bowen and to my amazement and my family and friends, I gave up my stick and from then on it got better and better. I now dance again, ride a bike and walk miles etc. Every so often I have a top up treatment. I cannnot urge people enough to try the Bowen Technique.
Janice E Stokenchurch, Bucks.
I have been receiving reflexology and massage from Jan for several years now. It has been a very enlightening experience! The treatments enable me to go into a deep relaxed state and download stress. I come away feeling positive and more able to tackle life's trials and tribulations. In addition, I have always found the "me" time thoroughly enhances my ability to focus and reflect on what is currently happening in my life and feel happy about the good things and deal effectively with the not-so-good things! I also feel the treatments have benefited my overall general health.
Lynda H Bucks
Reflexology provides me with a feeling of well-being and has certainly helped to reduce my stress levels. I started having sessions with Jan following a bout of shingles a couple of years ago. I have no doubt that it speeded up my recovery, other people I know who have had shingles felt run down for weeks but I seemed to get over it much quicker. I still have reflexology about every six weeks and notice the difference if I miss an appointment. Following a car accident this year, Jan gave me some Bowen treatments for a stiff neck and painful elbows, she achieved more in two weeks than the three months conventional treatment that I tried before. I was delighted when the insurance company paid for my treatments, further proof that complementary therapies are becoming more and more recognised.
Jenny D Bucks
Since having reflexology with Jan, my health has improved, I have more energy and my digestion is better. I am less stressed and more relaxed. I look forward to having my treatments with Jan every month.
Deb M Slough, Berkshire.
I have unfortunately, several non-life threatening (I hope) problems. I have Hashimoto's Disease (Thyroid): Otosceloris (deafness) in my right ear and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. On top of that, I have back pain, especially in my lower back and both shoulders. More recently I started to have aches and pains in my joints (my age is 51).
It was my Osteopath that suggested, once he'd sorted my back out that regular massage would help. It did for a while. I have tried a few alternative treatments (reflexology, acupuncture etc), but for me Bowen has been the best, it has eased my aches and pains and Bowen has helped to bring my blood pressure down, now only having to visit my GP every two months to have it checked. I have NO IDEA how it works but it does. I always know if I've left it too long between treatments as I'm in pain, so now I book regular monthly Bowen appointments with Jan.
For me it's the friendliness of Jan Conran as much as the Bowen treatments that helps me, as she always cheers me up and listens (uncomplainingly to all my problems)!
Tricia N Stokenchurch, Buckinghamshire.
Jan offers valuable `me time' with her range of treatments. Her massages are wonderful and I find the reflexology very relaxing. Jan is very intuitive and you do not need to give her any information - she just knows!.
Gill W Maidenhead, Berks.
My first appointment with Jan was to find out about reflexology and give another complementary therapy a try. That was 3 years ago and I have been for monthly treatments ever since!! I find it relaxes me, gives me energy and has kept me healthy and free from colds and ailments. Jan usually knows I have tooth ache before I do!!
You're a star Jan - thanks for everything.
Mary H Radnage, Buckinghamshire.
I won a voucher for some reflexology therapy with Jan at a Ladies Indulgence Evening three years ago. I wasn't really sure what reflexology was, but am really pleased I bothered to find out. At my first consultation, Jan spent some time discussing my medical history and then gave me an hours reflexology. I came away feeling relaxed, refreshed and much more energetic; I was on a real high. I have been seeing Jan every six weeks since and love the way I always feel so relaxed after my treatments - it is very special 'me' time. I am convinced the reflexology has helped my digestive problems. It is so reassuring to talk and relax with someone who is so in tune with my needs.
Alison S Stokenchurch, Buckinghamshire.
I have been having Reflexology for two years and Bowen Technique for a year which has improved the quality of my life immeasurably. For me, Reflexology appears to monitor my general well-being, alerting me to problems where I can help myself.
An osteo-arthritis sufferer for about thirty years, my big toes having replacement joints twenty five years ago, Bowen Technique directs treatment to specific areas needed at the time, and, without question, increases my mobility and reduces stiffness and pain.
I have no desire for further replacement joints, and have every faith that these treatments will stave off the necessity.
I am most grateful for the freedom of movement that these treatments have given me.

An osteo-arthritis sufferer for about thirty years, my big toes having replacement joints twenty five years ago, Bowen Technique directs treatment to specific areas needed at the time, and, without question, increases my mobility and reduces stiffness and pain.
I have no desire for further replacement joints, and have every faith that these treatments will stave off the necessity.
I am most grateful for the freedom of movement that these treatments have given me.
