Welcome to The Health Recovery Clinic
Our clinic is focused on delivering advanced treatment options for people suffering from all illnesses. We specialise in severe fatigue and disease-related illnesses such as ME/CFS, Post Viral Fatigue migraines, fibromyalgia and long covid.
Chronic illnesses and extreme fatigue are complex conditions and cannot be treated superficially. Many factors can be contributing to your debilitating fatigue and long-term pain and that’s why we believe in treating the root causes of your illness and not just your immediate symptoms.
ME / CFS and Long Covid affects many thousands of people, with often devastating results. The symptoms of ME / CFS and Long Covid are wide ranging as they can affect every system within the body. These include:
-
-
- Widespread pain
- Severe headaches
- Profound fatigue
- Disorientation
- Dizziness
- Reduced Concentration
- ‘Brain fog’
- Memory problems
- Difficulty with word recall
- Sleep disturbances
- Photophobia (light sensitivity)
- Digestive problems / food intolerances
- Problems with temperature control
- Hyperacusis (noise sensitivity)
- Chemical sensitivity
- MCAS
- Palpitations
- POTS
- Swollen glands
- Mobility problems
- Post exertion fatigue disproportionate from pre illness activity

Listening to you is one of the most important things we do.
The work we do at The Chronic Health Recovery Clinic is motivated by our patients, many of whom have had a long and difficult journey in getting the right help before visiting us.
We don’t just look at your specific pain or immediate symptoms, we look at you in detail; your medical history, your lifestyle, your vocation and any other potential external factors that you feel are important during your health assessment at the clinic.
Dealing with the underlying causes of chronic illness and severe fatigue is fundamental to how we work at the clinic.

Although we provide a range of treatments and expertise in treating long-term illnesses like chronic fatigue, ME/CFS and Long Covid, we specialise in the Perrin Technique and Bioresonance Therapy.
Perrin Technique
Treating Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS)
We have been specialising in treating sufferers of ME and chronic fatigue syndrome using the Perrin Technique for over 18 years. Gail Sumner is one of the UK’s most experienced Perrin Technique practitioners and has worked extensively with Dr Perrin in developing this technique for patients suffering with ME/CFS.
The Perrin Technique involves both craniosacral and lymphatic massage, designed to specifically remove toxins and harmful chemicals accumulated around the brain and spinal cord which is prevalent in sufferers of ME/CFS.
Gail is one of only 12 practitioners worldwide selected by Dr Perrin for Advanced Perrin Technique Practitioner training.

Bio resonance Therapy
Analysis and Therapy for ME/CFS, Long Covid, Bacterial, Viral and Parasitic infections as well as identifying other chronic health burdens.
We have the latest Rayonex bioresonance machine in our clinic. Bioresonance works by analysing the body’s natural frequencies emitted by your cell network and critical organs and indicates which direction of treatment you may undertake to reduce fatigue and improve your health.
Our bioresonance therapy is managed by Jen and Caroline and the process we undertake involves assessing your symptoms and investigating the root causes of your illness and the toxic burdens affecting your body.

Functional Medicine
Finding the Underlying Causes of Fatigue and Chronic Illness
All of the clinical staff at the Health Recovery Clinic believe in the importance of identifying the underlying burdens and root causes that trigger poor health and can often lead to severe fatigue and debilitating chronic illness. Functional medicine takes an holistic approach, so your medical history, dietary history, environmental factors and lifestyle are all seen as important contributing factors to the state of your health today.
We use the Functional Medicine model to systematically assess, test and analyse root causes of your current health state and chronic illness, enabling our practitioners to recommend a treatment plan that will help reduce your fatigue levels and support your long-term recovery.
Gail is the HRC team’s fully certified BANT Nutritional Therapist and has extensive collective experience in all aspects of Functional Medicine, from nutritional analysis, supplement and dietary advice, gut work, detoxification, blood sampling, and chemical detoxification.
