Matt Gillard Sports Massage Therapy

Great professional treatment and follow up. Would highly recommend.

Went to Mat with really bad migraine and neck pain and he quickly knew where the trigger was to work on.He is very sensitive and wise in his approach to your problem.I would highly recommend him.

I’m a busy sports therapist and find the heavy work often affects my neck, shoulders and back. Matt has been able to identify the weaknesses, relax off the tension and advise me on ways to correct my posture, reducing the damage caused by my work.His knowledge of human anatomy is exceptional, he is friendly and professional. I’m really pleased to have found someone who can complement the other therapies I use. He’s a great addition to the osteopaths.

Went to see matt after sustaining a back injury training which radiated into my knee. It took minutes for him to know exactly what the issue was and get to the root issue and work on it. Within 2 sessions and guidance I am back training. I walked in limping and walked out as if there had never been any pain . Cannot recommend highly enough. Not only was he very professional, he was super friendly and explained everything along the way which made the session so much more comfortable

I have been a client of Matt’s now for several years now and he has helped and encourage me to reach my fitness goals.I have more recently been visiting Matt for Massage therapy. Firstly, just over a year ago with a lower back issue which saw me hobbling into the treatment room in absolute agony on a high dose of pain medication with fairly limited mobility. Within just one session the pain had eased enough to stop taking the medication and move around much more easily. Another session and advice on stretches to work on alongside training adjustments ensured I was pain free within a couple of weeks.Around a week ago I was struggling with some pain in my shoulder which was causing issues with movement and quality of sleep, Matt managed to fit me in for a massage. With a combination of deep tissue massage and electrotherapy there was a drastic improvement.I am employed as a prison officer and I need to be ready, physically fit and capable of responding quickly to incidents. My role can include long periods of sitting or standing, this alongside the wearing of PPE and this can aggravate the issue with my lower back. Matt has the uncanny ability to quickly pinpoint pain and begin working on it ensuring rapid improvement keeping me fit for work.I would highly recommend Matt, he is friendly, professional, puts you at ease and most importantly skilled at what he does.

I have recently started to have regular sessions with Matt for massage specific to my sport. Within two weeks I have noticed significant improvements in both flexibility and comfort during lifts. Highly recommend Matt for anyone looking at ways to increase athletic performance and general body maintenance.

My Daughter is a competitive athlete and was struggling with Tightness and Hamstring issues prior to a competition. Matt came and treated Millie, he then gave brilliant advise around stretching and after treatment. Extremely professional and knowledgeable and made Millie feel at ease and confident in the treatment. I have used other sports therapists previously but will always go back to Matt first in the future, he is brilliant at what he does and we were extremely happy with the service.

Struggled for the last 3 years with reoccuring calf pain which has impacted on being able to run without going a few days and then being back in pain. Got in to see Matthew this last week and feel like a new person. Matthew was so thorough diagnosing the pain and stemming it back to tight glutes, which no one had previously done. Glad to say since the session I have managed to run pain free each day. Even managed to test it on a speed session with no after effects. Would definitely recommend Matthew and will definitely be going back again to see him. After 3 years of a constant niggle, so nice to be back running pain free thanks to Matthews thorough knowledge and diagnosis.

Fantastic trainer, I've made some great progress in the few months I've been training with Matt. Varied work outs, really good support, would highly recommend
