A great massage technique perfect for those with prolonged pain. This therapy targets built-up tension in the muscles and it relieves pain like no other massage technique, ensuring that the pain doesn't return as well as removing it in the short-term. Furthermore, you will be given exercises to do at home and a postural assessment will be carried out, to further ensure that you don't experience the pain again as a part of your daily life. A great little gem in Horsforth.
Treatment by Mathew Jerome•Myofascial Release Therapy
I have been receiving therapy from Matthew for several months. I had two main issues : 1) a long term back ache I couldn’t seem to shift (2) foot pain/and pain from a 10yr old calf injury.
After several sessions my back ache dramatically reduced, I no longer had to use a hot water bottle to ease the pain. Now I no longer have the pain, if I do I have a way to resolve it. Immediately I felt the stress leave my body and I was able to get better sleep and concentrate on my work, have improved energy and mood. My calf has been a longer term issue, I now have the circulation return to my leg when bending down without pain, my foot is freer and it is easier to run. There is a significant reduction in the sensitivity I was experiencing in the muscle. After seeing several Hospital specialists to help my leg, this has been the only treatment that has worked. Additionally Matthew, in my experience is a kind, effective, supportive therapist that genuinely cares about my recovery and progress. Matthew is also open to any questions and ideas I have, which feels like an effective healing partnership. I highly recommend him.
I suffer from terrible back and shoulder pain, which is exacerbated when I try to exercise. This is the only treatment I have found that can actually keep this pain at bay for months at a time. Exceptionally good at relieving muscle pain, and great at explaining the science behind it all. A brief overview is given beforehand so you know exactly how your muscle pain has occurred, and exercises given after the massage/tension-relief to prevent the pain from coming back.

Had lots of discomfort in my right shoulder - pain, burning, numbness. Didn't understand Fascia treatment but it was explained well & just seemed to make sense. The treatment is not too intrusive and is quite firm yet gentle, as the movement is extremely slow. The treatment is working. The fascia around the neck, shoulder & shoulder blade is more agile, and the discomfort has reduced somewhat. Hoping over time, it will improve more. I personally feel this treatment has helped me enourmously & I will keep up with regular visits one my initial 5 weekly treatment session has ended.
