RMH Sports Massage Therapy

Professional and friendly service.Fully explained his assessment and treatment step by step.Felt immediately relief from tight spots in upper back neck.Highly recommended

I am in my late 50's and started running with the local running club 18 months ago. Early this year I started to get pain in my hip while running. I was worried that I might be wearing my hip out A few people recommended Richard rather then visiting a physiotherapist. Richard is incredible. He starts with baseline tests and then works different parts of the body. Everything is explained in detail and homework is set. The results have been incredible, not only the disappearance of the hip pain but my running has actually improved. Even if you have no injuries, Richard can help you to use your body more efficiently to improve your performance.

I've been to see Richard a couple of times after suffering from running-related injuries, and I can't fault the quality of his service. I was initially unsure as to whether I wanted to spend money on treatment, but I am so glad I did. Richard is very friendly, and explains everything he does as part of the treatment, which helps to put you at ease. He sends you away with exercises that really help, and makes sure you understand each one before you go. He also keeps in touch to find out how things are going, and will adapt rehab accordingly. My return to running has definitely been smoother than it would have been had I not had Richard's excellent treatment and expert advice. All in all, I would thoroughly recommend his service!

I visit Richard monthly for muscle activation treatment, and I can honestly say, it has made a huge difference.As a runner, this has made an incredible difference to how I run and also how efficiently I run.Richard is brilliant at explaining what he’s going to do, giving a baseline so you can compare after receiving the treatment and then treating you. After the the treatment, he’ll then redo the same “test” as before to show you results pretty much straight away.I had my doubts initially, but after talking to others that have also had the treatment, I thought I’d give it a try. And I am glad I did, I’ve been visiting Richard now for roughly 6 months and he has managed to clear up pretty much all of the muscular problems I have had.

I can't begin to tell you how brilliant Rich is at what he does. I initially visited to deal with plantar issues which were quickly sorted. It was so good that I haven't stopped coming back since for regular massage therapy. I'm feeling in the best condition I ever have whilst strength training and running. Highly recommended, so much so that massage therapy with Rich is part of my ongoing training & recovery plan!

I have been attending RMH for about 6 months now, my ongoing groin issue has never felt so good. Made a massive difference to my sport. Richard does a really good job of explaining what he is doing and why. You always feel that he is engaged in your treatment and cares about making improvements. He took onboard my lack of discipline when performing home exercise and ensured they were basic and short exercises that I would do to enhance the work he performs. Richard is a great bloke, I have found it very easy to engage with him and the conversation that goes with the treatment normally helps me leave feeling mentally better too! The treatment room is a nice comfortable space and treatment is always 60mins, no wasted time. Quick review of last visit and how you’re feeling, brief agreement on this weeks plan, then on the table working.

I came to get help with chronic calf cramps. A combination of massage and needle work has done wonders for me. Richard is prompt, professional and puts me at ease. I completely recommend him for sports injuries

I initially went to see Rich after having a bad fall from a horse.Rich replied very swiftly to my initial email and within a matter of days I went for my first appt. I believe the massage therapy and dry needling I received over the first few appts sped up the healing process by far.I have continued with regular appointments for tension/ pain I suffer with and I always feel the benefit! Rich is always welcoming, approachable, very knowledgeable and his genuine passion for his work is clear to see from the time and energy he has during each appointment.

Richard is first class and highly recommend for anyone seeking relief from aches and pains. He understands the source of the discomfort and targets various techniques to these causes to provide relief. He works in a professional and empathetic way and I have always felt better at the end of the hour. He spends time understanding what is going on and is very knowledgeable about how our bodies and muscles work. He uses a mixture of muscle activation and deep massage that really works. My husband and I now attend regularly to keep our bodies in check and working efficiently.

I've been visiting Rich's practice regularly for 10 months at the time of writing. Initially for help with shin splints bought on by restarting track sprint training a few months earlier and more recently for a minor groin niggle.Rich is a warm and professional individual with a genuine interest in doing his best for his clients. He conducted a thorough initial consultation with me before proceeding with targeted treatments which we review each session based on how my training has been going, all of which he keeps a detailed log of.My sessions have focused on the lower back and legs. He has used sports massage, trigger point and dry needling techniques to help me recover. Without his help I'm positive things would have been a lot tougher.Its easy to recommend Rich's practice as visiting him has become an integral part of my active lifestyle. He has been no end of help with the physical side of things, but is equally a great source of support and genuine interest in my desire to be (and remain) track (and life) fit for as long as I can.
