Chiropractic care saves champion boxer

October 13, 2009 By admin

This is a short testimonial I wanted to write to express my gratitude for having Chiropractic in my sporting life. Having met Stefaan Vossen five years ago as the medical director of the boxing stable of which I was then part, he has become, and continues to be, an integral part of my preparation. Before meeting Stefaan I had never been to see a chiropractor and really didn’t know the ins and outs of what they practised, only thinking that they treated vertebrae with different techniques. Once I met Stefaan I realised very quickly this man is not only very competent in what he practises but compared to people I had been treated by in the past is on a different level all-together knowing in huge detail about human anatomy and the biomechanics of the human body. Having a vast interest myself in the human body and being a qualified personal trainer which qualified me for sports rehabilitation I feel I learn so much from Stefaan by picking his brain about injuries and sports physiology.

Stefaan really showed me his true competence and expertise when confronting him with different injuries from ripped muscles to slight dislocations of bones coming from my full-on training as a professional boxer. He showed me his true worth because some of my injuries I have sustained have threatened my career at the time and Stefaan has always given me confidence and pulled me through. I have been very grateful because some of the many injuries happened during preparation for a fight or just before a fight. One reasonably bad injury happened only about a week before a fight and Stefaan treated me and got me in good enough working order to win when I would otherwise have pulled out. I use Stefaan all the time now as a maintenance service because ever since I have been seeing him my injuries are practically none-existent other than my elbow injuries which occur through repetition which I picked up many years ago but even those seem to be better through my treatment with Stefaan. I owe him a lot of gratitude for the work he has done with me and it’s great for an athlete to always have the confidence to be able to work with someone who can sort out your injuries so that I can do the things I love and perform as a professional athlete. I am also aware of the fact that at my age (I am now 37) many people are expecting me to not be able to continue to fight at this level. In fact I am now at my best and am consistently performing better thanks to the fact that Stefaan is helping me to pick up experience and fights without picking up injuries.
Kind regards

Lower Back Pain

September 9, 2009 By admin

I am a 70 yearold male,I was recommeded to Stefaan Vossen by a friend after my GP was unable to resolve any of my discomfort.

I had been suffering from sciatica for some 5 months, this gave me severe pain down the right leg with numbness in my foot and toes. In addition my left arm and hand also exhibited a loss of sensation, and for 4 years I suffered from abdominal discomfort and pain.

Stefaan examined me and finally concluded that due to the serious car accident I was involved in 17 years before, in which I broke my foot; that all my problems were caused because my right leg had developed 7mm shorter than the left. As a result the whole of my pelvic girdle, shoulders and back were out of line, and my posture, balance and muscle build up had compensated for this over the years. He suggested that a 7mm insert in my shoe would ease my problems. He asked that I should wear this for two days and then he would re-examine me. True to his word, two days later I was able to report back that I had seen a 60% improvement in all pain areas. Now some weeks later I would say that I am 92% cured of all problems, apart from the onset of old age of course. Stefaan did all this for me without charge, is that rare or what? I willingly gave an un-solicited, small donation to his current charity, for my two free consulations. Oh and £4.50 for the shoe insert which was his only charge!!. I would certainly recommend Stefan to anyone I meet, who needs the treatments he specialises in. No wonder my friend said ‘Stefaan is a miracle man’!!, he is for me.

Kind regards & many thanks
