Client Testimonials
I contacted Denise on recommendation from a music professional. I had suffered a shoulder injury and this was affecting my work as a professional guitarist. I contacted Denise and booked in for treatment. Denise met me in a lovely treatment environment. She was a complete professional and made me feel totally at ease on my first session. Her knowledge of anatomy is second to none and within moments she had found out my arm pain radiated from, in fact, my shoulder. Denise was able work on it in a holistic manner by aligning my whole frame – this made sense. Her movements were confident and she found areas of tension I didn’t know I had with almost a 6th sense. This was my first of many treatments, I will be going back for more for sure. Denise is a warm kind person with an innate sense for her craft. Her qualifications are exemplary but this isn’t just why she’s an excellent practitioner. She’s a natural at detecting and treating injuries that are not visibly obvious until she finds the root causes. I would recommend her skill set to anyone looking for therapy and well-being. She is a body master and she excels at her craft -book with confidence that you are receiving a top-class professional treatment from a first-class practitioner.
Denise’s sports massage treatments helped my training for a rowing marathon. Because Denise was able to release knots and tension in my muscles and give me exercises to strengthen my core, I was able to train much harder without suffering an injury. In my rowing marathon I attained a personal best time and finished as second fastest female sculler. A few weeks later I completed a hat trick of wins at Wallingford Long Distance Sculls, Weybridge Silver Sculls and Marlow Long Distance Sculls, establishing a new course record for the women’s veteran B event at Wallingford.
The pinnacle of my racing season came at the international endurance regatta in Turin, where I achieved a bronze medal in the women’s masters B event at the Trofeo Silver Skiff.
My training consists of a lot of power and sprint work, and it is essential that I recover as best I can between sessions, whilst remaining supple and flexible. This year, when I pulled a hamstring in the middle of the season, I started regular sports massage sessions with Denise.
I am convinced that her expert approach and knowledge sped my recovery and significantly benefited me during my subsequent escalation in training intensity, allowing me to reach peak condition for the World Ultimate Club Championships in Prague. As a result I intend to build regular sports massage sessions into my training regime this coming season.
