Real Experiences
All reviews are genuine feedback from verified customers, so you know exactly what to expect at each and every venue.Three years ago I decided to get fit, but GYM wasn't the answer. Being a lover of Taoism, it only felt natural to take up Tai Chi lessons. The Universe called upon and sent me to "The Seven Heavens Clinic" where I met my personal trainer Faisal Mian. Little did I know at the time the importance of breathing exercises, something so simple yet so profound. Little by little I began to learn how to breathe, how to stand, how to walk, how to centre myself, etc. Every lesson which I had, brought me closer to myself...I realised that the nature of martial art was much more than just a sport. My soul thrived in it, even though my body was out of sinc. To bring the mind, body and soul together was the most difficult task I ever had. Faisal is inspiring, sensitive, motivational and resourceful in teaching...never dull. There where times when I would be in fits of giggles because I just couldn't get the new movements right...but he would always find a way to ground the "childlike" student. A good Tai Chi teacher is not just a good fighter, he is creative, patient and understanding. And Faisal is all that and more.
Apart from training, this heavenly clinic became a place where I found more help on health matters. Working in demanding retail environment, stress is present frequently. Sometimes I would be so tired that I didn't even have the energy to practice qi-gung at home. During those times I needed help from an outer source and the answer was "The Seven Heavens Clinic". Faisal knows his students well, and finds the appropriate treatment to help them bring balance in aligning their energy. When our energy is not aligned and balanced, we are not able to perform correctly our daily tasks and cope with daily stresses. Deep tissue massage is very profound because it helps to unblock the stuck yin energy, it also helps with blood circulation and it works the lazy muscles which I didn't even know I had...ha ha ha. Highly recommended.
Then 2 years ago, I had a pulled ligament on my right arm. The pain was bizarre because it felt like it started from the shoulder and then it worked its way down my hand. I thought it would go away in few days...not so...one morning I noticed that I was not able to hold even my hairbrush properly, couldn't lift the glass of water, the simple movements became restricted and I became very unhappy. That was the time when I was introduced to Faisal's brother Awais. I was booked for 6 accupuncture treatments. I try to avoid visits to GP as much as possible. Holistic treatments have become the essential way of treating body ailments. Awais is very professional and sensitive towards clients. He would combine the accupuncture treatment with cupping and gentle massage to relax the muscles. Accupuncture has also helped me balance anxiety due to hormonal changes and the pain on my arm has gone.
Faisal and Awais provide teachings and treatments tailored for students and clients. With their help I have learned how to listen to my body when it speaks to me through any discomfort. Both of them have given me faith on chosing a holistic treatment first. I always recommend this clinic to my friends and one of them has become a regular visitor for accupuncture. She said to me one day: The day you told me to call Awais and book a treatment with him, was the day that my life changed. Her back pain has been ongoing for few years, and now she is really enjoying her accupuncture treatments. In the west, holistic treatments have been very slow on being accepted, but all this is changing as people can see for themselves how alternative treatment is more natural than medical help, when aproppriate of course.
My visits to this heavenly clinic are not just visits for training and treatments, they are also educational. For people who are not afraid to get to know themselves better in mind, body and soul, then this is the place to visit.
I highly recommend:)
I have been visiting the Sevenheavens Clinic for a number of years now, where I have been treated by both Awais Mian and Faisal Mian for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and the various knock-on effects of the illness. I can say without a shadow of a doubt that where Western Medicine has repeatedly failed to have the slightest impact upon my condition, this Clinic has proven central to me being able to lead a life with some semblance of normality. Both practitioners are clearly deeply steeped in Eastern wisdom and have spent many long years studying their craft, and it shows in the after effects of their treatments. What is more, Sevenheavens Clinic clearly aims to teach their clients how to look after themselves and change their lives for the better - the study of Qigung as part of my healing process has helped furnish me with the tools I need to help keep my illness under control.
I honestly cannot say enough good things about the Clinic. They are wonderful guys practicing their work in a beautiful space (the recent redecoration is lovely!).
I can only be full of praise for Faisal Ahmed Mian"s and Awais Mian's treatments and approach in their Seven-Heaven's clinic.
I went there for the first time about one year ago when a very bad back pain was stopping me from moving freely. After just one session of Faisal's deep tissue massage I felt as if my body had released a lot of the pain and my tension had eased. I followed this up with Awais' acupuncture and cupping and my spasms basically ceased to nil.
Every time I go there I feel as if I am being very much taken care of and my needs and pains are treated seriously. The atmosphere is calm and professional and Faisal and Awais share a lot of their deep knowledge and teach you to recognise and understand your body rather than just giving a massage to feel good.
I have learned several breathing techniques which have really made a difference to my health.
Faisal's deep tissue massage is the best I ever had as he finds tense areas I didn't even know I had. Afterwards I always feel as if my body is new and in alignment again.
Awais acupuncture is equally amazing. I I once had a swelling on my right foot because of of straining my ankle. The NHS had given me very bad therapeutic training but the swelling didn't go away and it still hurt. After just one session of acupuncture the swelling had gone down to almost normal. It had been swollen for two months before. Awais also introduced me to cupping which I very much enjoy ( even with red marks on my back) as it sucks out a lot of back pain.
I have always been treated with care and respect and always look forward to a session with either of them because I know I will feel very different and great afterwards. I know that they love what they are doing and do it to help others. They have trained their techniques for a long time to be this perfect.
I highly recommend going there and experience the difference to any other treatment.
I also recommend them so positively because they are wonderful people who really care about their patients.
The rooms have just been refurbished and it is easy to find- only 2 minutes from Finsbury Park tube station. The journey from mine ( East End) is worth it every time!
I just had a deep tissue massage at Seven Heavens. My job (journalist) and my hectic life (single mum of three) puts me under so much pressure, physical and mental, de-stressing is vital.
This is where Seven Heavens differs from other places - Faisal Ahmed Mian's holistic approach to his treatments is unrivalled - in fact, having had massages in various places across London, Amersterdam, Istanbul, Kuala Lumpur, New York, Egypt, Mexico City etc....I would say this clinic is World Class.
I left feeling elevated in body and soul.
I cannot recommend Seven Heavens highly enough - just try it for yourself.

After an impact to my left arm, I had a feeling of numbness and a twitching thumb for 3 weeks, it was driving me a little crazy to be honest. I was recommended to get a qi massage from Seven Heavens, and they really helped. I had an hour long massage, working slowly up my arm and onto my shoulder to clear the tensions and blockages and afterwards the feeling came back into my arm and the twitching in my thumb stopped. I'd never had a massage before so I was a bit concerned I would feel intimidated or feel like my personal space had been invaded when being massaged, but it was fine. The practitioners were so professional, but not at all distant or impersonal, and I could tell they just wanted to help me with my arm and stop the uncomfortable symptoms that I had been experiencing. Sadly I don't live in London, because my partner has got a similar kind of a problem since he hurt himself and I would love for him to see the same guys that helped me so much. In fact, I might even have to get him to go to London because his trip to the GP surgery has given him the all-clear, despite his continuing symptoms and I really believe that Seven Heavens could help him.
