I had booked this deep tissue massage as a first step back from 18 months of long covid joint pains (hips/knees/shins/ankles/feet/lower back/hands) as well as hopefully being of some help for my long term knee problems (over 35 years osteoarthritis) but I received so much more. I believe Tom to be, not just an experienced masseur thoroughly grounded in the techniques, but a compassionate healer. I feel I received help on many levels within myBody/Mind. Immediately I felt massively more at ease.
