Client Testimonials
As a multisport/endurance athlete your body is placed under a huge amount of different stresses and demands, and so injury prevention and treatment is a major aspect of day to day management. It is a running joke amongst my friends how injury prone I am, and Denise has been an absolute life saver in keeping me fit and competition ready. I’ve been competing in a variety of disciplines for over ten years and have seen more sports injury therapists than I can remember, and Denise is in a different league to all others! Through regular massage, new core and stabilisation exercises that she has added to my training and specific injury treatment and rehabilitation, I’ve been able to train harder and been more successful than ever.
Denise’s holistic and in depth understanding of the body is incredible and she has often identified issues which I wasn’t even aware of just by touch, enabling us to adapt my training before they became full blown injuries. Her experience in a wide range of sports is unparalleled – she has kept me on the road for marathons, helped ease recurring rib fractures and disc problems sustained through rowing, helped me take seconds off my swim times and got me back into the gym after bike crashes and riding accidents, to mention just a few.
Her personal experience as a rider has also been an incredible asset – she has come to watch me ride and seen things my instructor hasn’t which have enabled me to make great improvements, both in terms of enhancing my riding and my horses way of going. Denise is a great listener, as well as an incredibly approachable and professional therapist who is deeply committed to all the athletes she treats. I could not achieve half of what I do without her!
Denise’s skill & expertise in her field is quite simply superb. Have had a number of other practitioners work on my neck & shoulder but no one comes close in terms of real results. I can’t recommend her highly enough!
I have been having sports massages with Denise for almost 7 years. She is by far the best therapist in Oxford. Denise’s extensive knowledge and experience combined with the variety of treatments she can offer make her a therapist who has successfully treated many of my injuries over the years. As a client of Denise’s, I also appreciate her supportive, caring and kind approach. Knowing Denise has my best interests at heart is an important part of trusting in her as a therapist.
I have greatly benefited from Denise’s ability to apply the technique she believes appropriate when treating my occasional shoulder pain as well as a long-standing issue I have had with my ankles.
Denise instinctively knows how much pressure to apply to my body and never leaves my body sore, which is very important to allow me to return to my triathlon training.
As a Personal Trainer, I have no hesitation recommending Denise to my clients as I believe she has the knowledge, experience and personality to make my clients feel very comfortable.
In 2016 during the build up to the Triathlon World Championships I saw Denise regularly, almost weekly so she could help me to prevent any niggles becoming injuries and to keep my body moving well during a period of hard training. A large part of successfully getting to the start line without any issues was having Denise as part of my therapy team and I feel extremely grateful and thankful to be able to have treatments with her.
