About

The most valuable investment you will ever make, is in your health

I help create an optimal environment for the body to heal and perform at it’s very best, providing targeted hands-on treatment for the release of stress, pain and tension.

“With over a decade of experience, It has become my life’s work helping others suffering from pain, injury and tension”

I know first-hand how pain can affect our daily lives, having suffered with chronic back pain for many years. After various ineffective treatments, GP appointments and irrelevant scans I’d completely lost hope.

It was In 2011 that I discovered ‘soft tissue therapy’ and the results were remarkable. This is where my journey and passion for helping others began.

Gareth helped me recover from a knee injury during the London marathon. I’m now back to running long distances, pain free, doing what I love again.

Maintenance Treatment

On the treatment table, the main focus is to relieve tension and tightness, leaving you feeling looser, less stagnant and re-charged. Stress will be reduced, through both physical and neurological changes and more often than not, most people won’t realise how much tension their body holds until after the session.

It doesn’t just stop there and there is a whole host of benefits you can experience through regular maintenance treatment.

  • Mental Clarity
  • Relaxation
  • Better Quality Movement
  • Improved Sleep
  • Enhanced Immune System
  • Enhanced Recovery

What you can expect from your first session

Consultation

This usually doesn’t take much time at all. It consists of taking a brief case history as well as your reasons for coming in for treatment. I may run some tests and postural assessments to ascertain what techniques will be best suited to you.

Treatment

Treatment with me is very specific and could include a number of techniques depending on your assessment, including general massage, soft tissue/fascial release, trigger point therapy, muscle energy techniques (MET), stretching or joint mobilisation.

Aftercare

Although treatment with me is very hands-on, what you do outside of the treatment room can be just as valuable. That’s why I won’t just forget about you once you leave, and more often than not your session will be followed up with aftercare.

FAQ’s

What is Soft Tissue Therapy?

Soft Tissue Therapy is a form of remedial manual therapy that works to manipulate the soft tissues of the body such as fascia, muscles, tendons and ligaments for the purpose of tension and pain relief.

Is Treatment Painful?

Surprisingly, treatment is rarely painful and the truth is, everyone will respond differently. It’s also a complete myth that treatment needs to be painful to be effective.

What do I wear for treatment?

MALES & FEMALES; Short shorts are ideal. FEMALES; no sports bra’s please.

What If I Feel Nervous About Having Treatment?

My goal is not only to make you feel at your very best, but comfortable during treatment. I’ve treated thousands of people over the years of all different shapes and sizes.

FEMALES; I use a large towel, keeping you covered up at all times and only expose the muscle group that I’m treating. If you’re still unsure, please check out my google reviews and see what others say. Any questions, please feel free to contact me direct.

Do you work mobile?

Mobile appointments are available upon request. Due to limited availability I rarely have space for mobile appointments and prices start from £90 per hour.

Can I claim on my health insurance?

Unfortunately, my profession is not affiliated with any private healthcare providers but do check with your employer as you might be entitled to wellness allowances.

How often should I have maintenance treatment?

To feel the full benefits of maintenance treatment, I recommend anything from every 1 to 4 weeks. For those who want to take it seriously I offer block bookings meaning 50 minute treatments can be as low as £51 per session.

Do you do general/relaxing massage?

Any form of massage can be relaxing but what you will not get is any kind of routine spa massage. The work I do is, specific, targeted treatment with purpose.
