Hi, I’m Matt, and I’m a professional massage therapist trained in the Jing Method™. Incorporating advanced soft tissue and massage techniques from eastern and western bodywork, my approach aims to bring about a reduction in pain, restoration of function and movement, and an overall increase in energy and vitality.

 

I will be working with the most effective advanced clinical techniques for you, including  deep tissue, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, acupressure and advanced stretching. My services are effective for both sports people, and those suffering with MSK chronic pain and stress related conditions. They are also great for those seeking relaxation  massage, and to re-balance energy levels.​​
