I’ve gone to Rachel with different issues and she always fixes the problem. I’ve had a bad shoulder/neck issue for years and got to the point where I was having numbness down my arms. After treatment, I was so happy to wake up to being able to turn my head without pain! More...

I did my back in shoveling snow Dec 2017. Half of 2018 was spent seeing physiotherapists and an osteopath who all had conflicting treatments. I also have a grade3 uterine prolapse which was made worse by the exercises prescribed. By the time I saw Rachel, I had pain in my left hip that kept me up at night, I couldn't walk more than a few blocks, and I needed to lift my leg with my hands to get into the car; my right hip hurt due to compensation, and I felt that my shoulder and neck region were completely frozen. Rachel listened to my concerns and how I had lost part of who I was due to my immobility. I was not a quick fix as my problems were complicated. However, within a few sessions, I was able to enjoy my walks with minimal pain; neck and shoulder tension had resolved; and I was able to sleep through the night without pain medication. I would highly recommend Rachel to anyone who needs a holistic therapist; she is exceptional at treating the person as a whole , not just the injury. More...

Rachel is fantastic and has treated me for multiple issues including sciatica and lower back pain, she really understood what she was doing and unlocked the muscles around my hips so I could move freely without pain again. Rachel is utterly professional, deeply knowledgeable and really good at getting to the true cause of the issue. I highly recommend her. More...

My experience with RF sports massage was excellent. Had very bad Achilles’ tendon injury which she understood, treated & got me back to full running strength. I’ve had loads of sports massages in my time but I rate Rachel as one of the best out there. More...

I went to see Rachel with general, non-specific pain in my right leg. Somehow, despite my vague explanation, Rachel was able to locate the source of the pain, identify the problem and relieve the discomfort. I have had no issues since, and have been able to return to running and Pilates. She was extremely professional, lovely and clearly very very good at her job. Highly recommended! More...

I had a wonderful lymphatic massage with Rachel today. She explained everything to me and answered any questions I had. Her knowledge on muscles and specifically the post natal body was quite amazing. ...especially since everybody’s bodies are so different. I will definitely be going back! More...
