As a massage therapist, I was experiencing headaches and pain in my neck and shoulder joints from tension/bad habits/posture. Hector’s water pad treatment is the only therapy that works for me – immediately relieves the tightness and tension and has the effect of completely relaxing me mentally and physically. The treatment involves lying on water pads and having water pads placed on top of the body, thinking of an emotional/difficult past event and then a gentle manipulation of neck/legs is carried out, which frees up the tension the body holds. The emotional release means that I have a lot less tension when thinking of that memory. My whole body felt looser, like jelly and this carried on for a couple of weeks. I had no headaches or shoulder pain. Amazing and fascinating – you won’t believe the results can be so immediate and effective ‘just’ from the benefits water provides. Highly recommend for a completely unique mental and physical treatment.

I have suffered with diagnosed chronic migraine for decades and, more recently, occipital neuralgia. Over the years, I have had to try many different medications and treatment approaches, both through the NHS and privately, to manage my symptoms. However, I never felt my migraines were truly under control.
I first had dive reflex treatment with Hector five months ago and have been attending once a month since then. The improvement has been huge. Before starting treatment, I felt migrainey most days and regularly experienced painful neck and neuralgia symptoms. I now only have one or two days of migraine symptoms a month.
I have also been able to stop some of my other interventions and gradually taper down medication that I had been taking for eight years, with the aim of coming off it entirely soon.
This treatment has been life-changing for me, and I am very grateful for Hector’s care and support.

Hector and his healing hands! My daughter is 4 years old, she has always struggled with sleep, often taking a long time to settle, usually after 10pm, unable to switch off, busy mind, and then, waking in the night or early morning, her behaviour was, unsurprisingly affected by the lack of sleep. After working with Hector just once, and taking away breathing exercises, our week could not be any more different, more settled evenings, waking up happy, just two meltdowns. We went back a week after our first appointment and again Hector worked his magic, not just on my daughter but myself too. Helping us both to release and relax together, Hector was able to take the time to explain how his practice works and sold us the water pads he had been using during our sessions to make this a more sustainable long term solution. I can not recommend Hector enough. He has honestly helped us transform our lives! I am now waking up with energy that I didnt know was possible to have!

I cannot recommend this technique enough! We have used the water pads for 3 monthsthe changes have been imidiate and consistent.
As a parent of a 7-year-old with a wonderful nurodivergant brain, bedtime used to take over an hour with a restless, agitated sleep avoiding child. Since using the water pads, our evenings have completely changed. Bedtime is now about 15 minutes of calm snuggles before Noah drifts off to sleep.
He never wants to miss the nighttime exercises with the water pads, he feels the difference in himself, and if he’s feeling more restless than usual, he’ll even ask to do them again.
At parents’ evening his teacher commented on the improvement in his writing — going from managing two words to writing five full lines, with consistent letter size and staying within the lines.
Noah is is now able to access groups previously to unpredictable and busy for him to cope with, allowing him to join his peers in everyday activities.

Honestly cannot recommend Hector enough. I contacted him because our 12 week old baby was so unsettled. When we contacted Hector he managed to see us the very next day ! I was sceptical and unsure how the treatment would help our baby. I can hand on heart say I could never have imagined the results we instantly saw. I feel like I have a totally different baby who is now so happy in herself and so much more relaxed. We can’t thank Hector enough for what he has done and what a difference he has made for us all.
