Testimonials

“ Loving life as a CRTS and all the course and team have taught me. In just one year it would appear I have become a “go to” specialist as word spreads. Barely any advertising is needed as word of mouth and specialist referrals from G.P’s and Orthopaedic surgeons are coming my way. In fact I am so busy right now I am having to do an “intake” for new clients at the start of November. Cannot recommend this course enough!” – Michael, CRTS 2018
