Friendly and professional service. This was my first sports massage and Gareth made me feel very comfortable. I was having pain across my shoulders and i feel such a relief just 1 day after the massage. Thanks Gareth.

A very professional and friendly service. Treated with great attention and respect. Sports massage on my lower back was great and I’m feeling instant relief after 2 weeks of real pain and discomfort. Thanks Gareth.

Did a walking marathon Saturday night so booked a massage for Tuesday afternoon for when the DOMS peaked in my legs. Gareth worked on my calves, hamstrings, quads and glutes and today I can walk freely without pain, he even took a look at my knee which has been giving me jip. He worked hard for a solid hour, and even gave me training tips too. Thanks Gareth. I highly recommend this guy. More...

Went to Gareth today for a deep muscle tissue massage on my legs. I have really tight calves due to ballroom/Latin dancing in heels and all the walking I do. It's been like walking on air this afternoon. Would definitely recommend. More...

Just had my fourth session with Gareth for a sciatic problem I've been having. So glad I 'stumbled' across him on here as he has helped me immensely. He is definitely someone to trust professionally and I have no reservations in recommending him. He's a really nice guy too! More...

Just got back from Gareth giving my calves and hammies a good going over. Found a few adhesions in my right calf and tightness in other areas, after a bit of pain from Gareth they now feel so much better.
Gareth knows his stuff, very professional and friendly. Loves his work and is passionate about it which shines through when he’s doing the business. Will be going back in the new year and would recommend to anyone, and people who know me know I’m not easily pleased !!! Only negative is his allegiance to the pie eating football club, just shows, nobody’s perfect !
Cheers Gareth, see you soon !

Had a therapy session yesterday with Gareth for pain across my shoulders, neck and back from an old shoulder injury. Loved the way he found the sore spots and treated those fully and regular checks on pain score too.
Today, I am sore but that was to be expected by my shoulder feels a lot less tense and I already have more movement.
I would certainly recommend Gareth to anyone

Fantastic, professional and friendly service. Gareth talks you through each stage of the treatment and you can certainly feel the positive effects. Would definitely recommend, you will feel much better. We notice a reduction in general muscular aches and pains following treatment which results in better sleep. Give it a try. More...

Had my first ever sports massage with Gareth - he was brilliant! He was really clear about everything he was doing, and every muscle group he was working on - really knowledgeable about how the aches were occurring.
Got some good tips for using my muscles better when running.
Thoroughly recommended!

I've used Thrive several times over the past few months and honestly wouldn't go anywhere else now I've found them. I have suffered with a few injuries previously and Gareth has been really instrumental in getting me back out running which is no small feat. He's reliable, knowledgable and relaxed, and really good at putting you at ease which is so important. Excellent service and really reasonable prices to boot. Thanks Thrive! More...
