"I came to Melissa with an unpleasant case of persistent IT Band Syndrome (ITBS), which had put a sudden stop to my ability run - just when I was really getting into it! - 12 months prior. In an attempt to cure ITBS, I had already consulted multiple physios (as well as Professor Google and ChatGPT) - but without success. Melissa was the first person to get to the heart of the issue. As soon as I entered the room, she began to identify certain muscular and structural issues which affected the way I moved, and which were driving the ITBS. As well as myofascial release massage, Melissa gave me tailored stretches, exercises and instructions for day-to-day movement which have helped me gradually to overcome the root causes of my ITBS. I'm now gradually reintroducing running, pain free - and now I know what I need to do to keep it that way. The advice has also helped me in my day to day movements too, and other problems - such as a tight hip and creaky back - have also improved naturally as a result. I couldn’t recommend Melissa highly enough for anyone looking for a tailored approach to overcoming some sort of persistent injury - thank you Melissa!”

'Having been feeling hopeless for a while about my costochondritis after many GP visits to no avail. I was recommended Melissa by a good friend of mine who said that she could be of help for me. 

After just one session, I could already see a difference and could tell how amazing Melissa was. She pinpointed my issue straightaway and gave advice on how it occurred and ways of avoiding it in the future. 

Her skills in massage and acupuncture were the key in helping me get better. She also helped me with the aftercare by recommending exercises and stretches to do to help strengthen my muscles and get back to my old self before the injury. 

It only took 3 sessions and it was a complete value for money. I would definitely go back to her again in the future and would recommend.'

"I've been seeing Melissa for years. I simply could not keep up my sports activities without her. She is not only highly professional and courteous but, best of all, she is an absolute magician as a physiotherapist and sports therapist. I trust her completely and regularly recommend her to other friends and family without hesitation."
