"As an athlete I have been fortunate to have had many sessions of sports massage over the years, but Michael’s are genuinely always my favourite! He understands my body and what I need just by looking at how I walk in, and is always able to fix any niggles or help recover from injuries as quickly as possible. An absolute legend!"
"Michael is a highly skilled, experienced and excellent Remedial Massage Therapist who has had a solid waiting list at our physio clinic for many years. Highly recommended."
"Michael has been providing remedial massage to me for several years. As an ultra trail runner running up to 100kms & 2500m elevation per week in training for 100-160km races, that remedial need is often high! Michael has a very high level of understanding of the body and provides excellent treatment."
"Michael is an exceptional practitioner and I can't express properly how much knowledge and skill Michael brings with him other than he is exceptional.
Michael has helped me overcome pain that was constant and shown me how to constructively change bad habits which have led to significant improvements in my quality of life."
"Michael brings a wide range of knowledge, experience, technique and skill to his professional massage. He is able to assess the problem, relive acute symptoms but also tackle underlying issues to achieve longer term change. I cannot recommend him enough."
