Bill. Age: 56

Health issues: Two crushed vertebrae, trapped nerve, arthritis in neck and knees, spondylitis in back and tingling in leg.

Since the age of 17, I have worked on building sites most of my life and worked on the railway.  My problems started 35 years ago. I suffered from 2 crushed vertebrae, trapped nerve, arthritis at the top of my neck and knees, spondylitis top and bottom of my back and tingling in my leg. I had injections into my spine, painkillers but some were too strong so I stopped them. 

None of it made much difference and the surgeon said he couldn’t do anything else. He said what you need is a new back and I can’t give you one. I even went to a chiropractor who said my neck was out of line.  After 2 hours of seeing the chiropractor it went back to how it was.

I have been using Ceragem for about 8 months now 5 days a week and its made a real difference. I would say I am about 95% better than I was. I am walking a lot straighter, I have a lot more energy and much less pain.

When I first lay on the bed Geoff sat next to me and asked me if I was okay. I was grunting and groaning and felt like he had hit me with a sledgehammer!

Geoff helped me a lot by advising me to persevere and I’m glad I listened to him because after 2 weeks it was less painful.

It has made so much difference that I decided to buy one for at home.  I had to approach Geoff about buying a bed – no one asked me about buying one.

It's great having a bed at home because first thing in the morning I use my Ceragem bed and any pain goes in minutes. I still enjoy coming to Ceragem Centre most days but its great having my own bed because I can use it more times and use the other settings which has helped a lot with my back. I used to take painkillers before I went to Sainsburys every Saturday but now I just hop on Ceragem.

I don’t take any medicines now and can work on my allotment which I was about to give up before Ceragem and before my health improved.

Thanks to Geoff and Julie and all the staff for all your help.
