liz murdoch2024-02-06 I've had three treatments, two of them specifically targeted at past injuries. Douglas is a good listener and takes the assessment process slowly, and the massage and stretches have been therapeutic and relaxing. I'm continuing to see Douglas and recommend his treatments! Paul Reid2024-01-12 Booked with Douglas very last minute and it was a very nice experience. We spoke for 10 minutes at the beginning and from there he put techniques into practise. It was very relaxing and very respectful! 10/10 Melissa Akoral2023-12-21 I met Douglas a few times as part of a case study for his training. He’s been professional, caring and interested. Always asked what I wanted to get out of it. His massages have been really tailored to different areas and he’s used multiple techniques proficiently. Would recommend his services. Mohamed Amrani2023-11-02 I could not be happier with my results., after only 1st session of hot stones massage I had suffered lower back pain for years and tried all sorts of therapy. Felt much benefit after my first session Douglas has taken the time to explain the whole process. Definitely recommend it to anyone suffering backpain Andrew Simpson2023-10-17 I've had many professional massages, both for relaxation and to treat sore muscles, so I feel like I'm well qualified to give Douglas an honest review. I had a hot stone massage from him after a long run, which was excellent! He spent a few minutes at the start talking about what I wanted from the massage, which is a nice touch to make sure he's working on the right areas. His manner is calm, gentle and thoughtful, and I would highly recommend him for a post-workout massage. Martin Adam2023-07-31 Excellent healing and relaxation from someone committed to his craft, Douglas is professional as well as committed to learning and developing new techniques. Wholly recommend! Jonathan Isaacs2023-02-13 Douglas' massage therapy is personal, enquiring and thoughtful. It is clearly not just a job to him. Our talking is an important part of each session, massage for the mind as well as the body. I'd rate his service at 5Stars if he was more assertive in telling me what he proposes to do rather than asking what I want hm to do, at the start of each session.

Douglas was very professional and made me feel very comfortable with a calm and gentle approach. I have a 30 minute treatment which was a back massage it felt really nice and had a deep healing quality that helped me relax and think about change I can make in my life. I would highly recommend Douglas for anyone in stress or pain

Thoroughly recommend Douglas. He has helped maintain my body to a high level, helping with injuries and creating a relaxing, healing space. Every visit I experience a massage tailored to my needs and feel safe and relaxed during and after
