Reactiv8 Therapy

Iv been going to Becki for just over 9 months, i have several conditions and had been looking for a good massage therapist for a long while, to help me. She was recommended to me by my P.A.when i started with her it was very hard going, because she isn’t like your normal therapist. Becki has a vast knowledge and is adding to that knowledge with any new trail in massage and unconventional ways of treating people with all kinds of illnesses. I don’t know what I’d do if I hadn’t found Becki since she’s been working with me i can now walk much straighter and my pain is under better control.22/11/22New reviewI still see Becki, once or twice a week for massage. I’ve been with her for over 4yrs, and wouldn’t go anywhere else. She is the most kind thoughtful person I know and very very talented, she has got to know my body so well I’ve never left without being treated even at my worst days. I have recommended her to family and some friends. She is the best for me.

Becki is truly an expert in her field, not only does she have healing hands but her knowledge of the body & how it works is incredible. After just one session my back felt good as new & the advice Becki has given me has allowed me to build on this. I would recommend her to anyone!

I honestly cannot put in to words how amazing Becki and scar therapy has helped me, just after one session!I have struggled for years with my scars,and so was very apprehensive about the thought of someone spending time looking and touching my scars but it was fab the therapy room was so calming and inviting and felt like I was at a spa having a treatment.Becki has such a lovely friendly and calmly way with her so I felt less apprehensive and we talked through my thoughts and my random metaphors about how my body felt to me (to which no one has ever really understood) but Becki did due to her vast knowledge and experience and she put a plan in place to help me...I just wish I had found Becki sooner!

I have been having treatments with Becki since February of this year to assist with chronic knee / leg pain, and have had approx. 5 treatments over the last 3 months. Becki has made a huge and positive impact on the levels of pain that I have suffered for many years, making everyday life and participating in sport much easier in this short period.Becki has a very unique approach to massage, specialising in 'scar tissue' manipulation - something that I have never seen before. I have scar tissue all around my knee after multiple surgeries, and had no appreciation for the problems that this could be causing, or contributing towards. Becki's massage style is amazing - very gentle in approach, to the extent where I didn't realise that so much change could occur with little pressure applied. I understand the theory to be focusing on fascia rather than muscles, however, the massage itself has been both fantastically relaxing and has reduced my every day pain quickly (after one session).I have had 3 knee surgeries over the years, and have had a build-up of chronic pain over a long period (18 years). I thought that the pain was going to live with me forever - until now. My knee / leg has continued to improve following every session.Becki is fantastically engaging and enthusiastic - from my first correspondence with her it was obvious that she wanted to help, and fully believed that she could. Becki also fully appreciates that massage is a 'complimentary' therapy, and exists to be part of a programme of treatment in order to achieve the desired outcomes. Following consultation and initial treatment with Becki, she provided me with details of a Physio that may also be able to help (who as it happens, has also gone on to be amazing, but that is another review…).To summarise, over the years I have worked with many therapists (including being a qualified sports massage therapist myself) - no other therapist has made such a marked, and quick improvement on my life. That may sound like a sweeping statement, however anybody with chronic pain will understand this. Words like '5 stars' or 'highly recommended' don't go far enough. If you struggle with chronic pain (I would say especially if this is related to an area following surgery) - book in with Becki at Reactiv8 Massage.

Following a couple of weeks of neck pain and loss of movement, I had my first session with Becki yesterday. This included a thorough consultation and a lengthy massage. I didn’t really understand the benefits of massage therapy prior to my visit. Becki is clearly very knowledgeable and equally as passionate about achieving results for her clients. All round an excellent first impression. 24 hours on, I am already seeing (feeling) results, with less pain and increased range of motion. I have been doing my homework as instructed and am looking forward to living my life in less pain and discomfort.

Where do I start! I had my little girl in march via an emergency c section and to say I wasn't prepared both mentally and physically for the recovery afterwards was an understatement. I was really struggling emotionally to come to terms with how my little girl entered the world and felt my body just wasn't mine anymore. it was a very lonely time and remember feeling so down one night that I started to Google 'c- section recovery tips' and came across reactiv8 therapy. I emailed Rebecca and was instantly met with a warm and genuine response which put me at ease. I went for my initial consultation and Rebecca took the time to really listen to my story, it was probably the first time anyone has done that. she had the tissues at the ready and was just such a lovely person that I instantly knew I wanted to come back. Rebecca really knew her stuff and is clearly very well qualified and trained in this area of work. I went for my first session a few weeks later and the results were unbelievable!! I've been for another session again since and again the change is just amazing. Rebecca genuinely is the loveliest person, she has an absolute heart of gold and truly cares about her clients and their feelings . she has made me feel like me again and I can't thank her enough for that x

I visited Rebecca for the first time today following the birth of my baby by C-section 9 weeks ago. I was eager to start treatment as soon as possible postpartum and I am so so glad that I did! Rebecca is so genuinely lovely, she took the time to really get to know how I was feeling post-birth, not just on a physical level with how my scar looks, but on a deeper emotional level. She was really able to tap into exactly what I needed from the session, and it felt so personal to me. She has given me some really useful massage techniques I can do at home to aid the healing and appearance of my scar, as well as fantastic, gentle treatment during the session on both my scar and other areas of my body which needed massage and release. I came away feeling great! I feel much more confident with massaging my scar at home, and my hips feel looser than they have in a very long time. It has really opened my eyes into both the physical and psychological benefits of scar therapy following a c-section and I absolutely recommend Rebecca’s services.

Becki has a gift for making you feel better. Whereas some therapists seem to follow a mechanical routine of moving around your body in a set format, Becki seems to sense which areas need more attention and adjusts the treatment to suit; she listens to what you tell her (and watches and feels for what you don't) and, before you know it, she seems to be releasing tension in a part you didn't even know was tense but which seems to magically ease the discomfort you'd been experiencing at the start!Becki has made the clinic into a fabulous space in which you can unwind, safe in the knowledge you're in professional hands. From the moment you step in, Becki puts you at ease, patiently listening with a natural warmth and inquisitive assessment style which helps you both to really get to the bottom of why you need treatment and what the best approach will be.Her clinical knowledge is obvious, though she doesn't use this to confuse you or appear aloof; on the contrary, she breaks down the science into easy-to-digest chunks to help you to understand your own body and take control of your own recovery.Treatment with Becki is an amazing experience - I leave feeling 6 inches taller and considerably more at peace with the world. I couldn't recommend her highly enough. Thank you Becki.

I visited Rebecca for the first time 9 weeks after my C-section. I was originally booked in a week before but following advice from Rebecca via a telephone consultation we delayed the appointment by a week. Rebecca advised this would allow necessary extra healing time for my scar, and the appointment would be more beneficial.I have been experiencing numbness and swelling following my c section and was keen to start treatment to fix / ease this as soon as possible.During the appointment Rebecca talked through the whole c section process with me and asked how I was feeling about the birth, and recovery. This is by far the most support I have received postpartum following my c section.The massage was gentle and where I had been avoiding touching my scar directly myself Rebecca encouraged me to do this and has taught me some really useful massage techniques to do at home to aid the healing and appearance of my scar.I felt really good after the appointment and I can already feel the benefits with numbness improved by almost 50% . I still have numbness on and around my scar and I will definitely be booking another appointment with Rebecca.
