I have a long history of back pain but I still enjoy sport and exercise regularly. Emma has been coming to our house (in all weather) every couple of weeks for the last 2 years to give me a 90-minute deep tissue massage. My back is better than it has been for the last 20 years. I think she is excellent. After my first treatment with Emma I noticed an immediate improvement in my mobility. After several more sessions I regained full mobility to my injured back. Her treatment and advice ensured that I had little if any problems following this treatment. After major shoulder surgery in 2008 and a long period of immobility my back problem resurfaced. I rang Emma and following several sessions I regained my mobility once again. The treatment was so successful I asked Emma to treat my shoulder this has also been very successful. I cannot speak highly enough of the treatment that I have received from Emma, she is not only very good at her job; she is hard working, kind and very professional. I would have no hesitation in recommending her and she would certainly be the first person I would call if I had a reoccurrence of my injury. We have engaged the services of Emma for several years and would thoroughly recommend her. She has the ability to put her clients at ease very quickly and forges a professional relationship. We see Emma on a regular basis but on several occasions Emma has responded at short notice to a specific problem and her expert training has eased the symptom. I had never used sports massage before but approached Emma when I got an injury during a netball match. I take my sport fairly seriously & hate to be away from activity for too long. Emma carefully assessed me & told me of some skeletal imbalances I never knew I had, that were reasons why my aches & pains often manifested themselves on my left side. I have been entering triathlons for the past 3 years and this year set my sites on an Olympic distance. I regard Emma as an important part of my maintenance programme. She works on areas that are particularly tight or causing me aggravation. I seem to remain fairly injury free so think it is a worthwhile investment in keeping me fit & active, quite an important factor at my age! |
As a journalist, I spend a great deal of time at my computer; as an Editor, I’m under plenty of stress. The combination of the two isn’t great for my neck or shoulders – sometimes I’d get so tense I could hardly turn my neck. Regular treatments with Emma are a lifesaver. It’s not just a question of helping me to relax – they actually keep me sane! Emma has worked on my back once a month for the last few years and without her I would not be able to do my favourite thing – play golf! Emma is an excellent therapist; since she began working on my back I have not suffered with the re-occurring problems. I would recommend Emma to anyone. I have suffered from arthritis for over 10 years and finally realised that my muscles, through loss of function, were preventing healing energy from getting to my joints. Emma has been invaluable in gently (and not so gently) reminding my muscles what they’re supposed to do. I feel so much better and my hips are much stronger and more flexible. I recommend Emma wholeheartedly to everyone. She is very intuitive and knows precisely what buttons to push. I had only experienced relaxing, aromatherapy type massages before so I didn’t know what to expect from Emma. Right from the first massage, I felt she was very professional and experienced. I felt she cared about my well-being and her treatments were focused on getting me back into shape. The main benefit I received from her treatments was a greater awareness of my body, and how my lifestyle was impacting my body. This awareness now empowers me to manage myself better, so my body is no longer a victim of my lifestyle and life decisions. Emma has re-connected me with my body. She truly listens to me and has been very efficient in diagnosing the unbalances in my body. I can strongly recommend Emma’s treatments to anyone who values their body, health and well-being. I have been receiving treatments from Emma for the last 5 years. She has an exceptional ability to take a very holistic view of people. Her massage always leaves me feeling well, rejuvenated and relaxed. I would highly recommend her if you are considering massage therapy. |
