The Perrin Technique: Osteopathic treatment for chronic fatigue syndrome

There is hope for ME patients - and with the right treatment most people can recover. At Bedford Integrative Health Centre, we offer a multi-approach treatment for ME patients, which includes nutritional advice and counselling as well as the Perrin Technique.

Last week was ME Awareness Week. We had press coverage in the Times & Citizen and Bedfordshire on Sunday. For the month of May we are offering £10 off your first consultation with osteopath, Sorrel Pindar, who uses the Perrin Technique to treat CFS/ME. Call us on 01234 409538 to book your appointment, or email us.

At the Perrin Clinic we believe that Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Myalgic Encephalomyelitis and Post Viral Fatigue Syndrome are physical disorders that lead to a build up of toxins within the brain and the spine. The Perrin Technique™ has been developed to diagnose CFS/ME by identifying definite physical signs and to treat the disorder by improving drainage of these poisons from the central nervous system.

The Perrin Technique^TM is a treatment for chronic fatigue syndrome CFS/ME which uses osteopathic techniques to stimulate and improve lymphatic drainage and fluid motion around the brain and spinal cord. This helps to remove toxins from the patient's tissues (principally muscles and joints) and from the brain and spine. The Perrin Technique^TM can lead to dramatic improvements in the patient's health - click here to see a report on the case of Alex Terry who had ME from the age of 16, and has now recovered, thanks to the Perrin Technique.

Chronic fatigue syndrome or M.E. (myalgic encephalomyelitis) presents in many different ways with symptoms which include extreme tiredness, lethargy, mental confusion, short-term memory loss, headaches, muscle pain, general weakness and disturbed and/or unrefreshing sleep. Those who are more severely debilitated may also suffer from an intolerance to bright lights or noise, and may even find conversation exhausting.

Many patients may have been told that there is no cure and that all they can hope for is to manage their activity levels. However it is possible to treat ME using the Perrin Technique™, combined with advice on posture, exercise, nutrition and lifestyle changes.

ME sufferers usually have a problem with control of the lymphatic vessels, the body’s natural waste disposal system, which leads to accumulation of toxins in the brain, which cause the fatigue. The Perrin Technique consists of osteopathic techniques to stimulate fluid motion around the brain and spinal cord while massage of the soft tissues in the neck, back and chest aid lymphatic drainage and direct the toxins out of the lymphatic system.

Sorrel Pindar is a registered osteopath, who is licensed to use the Perrin Technique in the treatment of patients with CFS/ME and fibromyalgia. She is based in Bedford town centre, and her patients come not only from Bedford and Bedfordshire, but also from Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, Northamptonshire and even as far afield as Lincolnshire.
