Complete Movement

Many thanks to the team in Complete Movement for their expertise and knowledge of the body, they have helped me move more comfortably over the past year as I've tried to strengthen my body in preparation for a hip replacement due to osteoarthritis. Both Maureen and Colleen's calm manner and encouragement have made this journey a happy and successful one, I go in for my operation next week. I'm looking forward to more Pilates in a few weeks time, it has helped me enormously at this challenging time and it will feature in the rest of my life. It's great to move! Regards Grace MacKinnon

Wow. That's what I can say. I went to Maureen because I was finding that I was unable to play an entire round of golf without having lower back and knee problems. It wasn't just golf but any sustained walking would result in the same.I informed Maureen of the problem and she took the time to listen to what I was saying and then look at my posture before she decided on what needed to be done.A few simple exercises/stretching and now I no longer have lower back or knee issues.Maureen in my opinion is not only an amazing woman for being able to fix my problem, but a lovely, kind and considerate person too.I promise you if you have any niggles or issues, speak with her first and she will be able to advise if she can help or not.I have recommended her to others and in one occasion she advised the client that they needed some other specialist help, which reflects her integrity and honesty.Thank you again Maureen

I have been going regularly to Maureen at Complete Movement since it opened. I find both Maureen and the studio excellent. The guidance and support received is second to none. I would not hesitate to recommend it.

I came to work with Maureen to improve my chore strength and minimise back pain, but realised immediately that the sessions were about so much more than that: Maureen helped me find a way to connect with my body, which I had been missing for a very long time.Maureen has a wonderful way of guiding me through movements so I know what I’m meant to be doing. Her sessions are empowering, intuitive and soothing, and I always always leave feeling calm and uplifted and lengthened. I cannot recommend Maureen highly enough.

I currently attend Pilates studio sessions with Fiona Carter and remedial massage with Fiona Fisher at Complete Movement, and both professionals have had a major impact on my health and wellbeing. I find the studio Pilates sessions more effective than the mat classes I had been doing previously. Fiona C tailors the sessions depending on how I'm feeling on a given day, particularly with reference to my multiple sclerosis symptoms. Remedial massage sessions with Fiona F started last year when I had difficulties with my shoulders. The partnership between Fiona Fisher's incredible massage and Fiona Carter's extensive Pilates wisdom resolved the shoulder issues so well that we're now all working on the knee that I damaged 30 years ago! My sincere thanks to both for their talent, kindness and good humour, and to Maureen for leading the Complete Movement team. I heartily recommend dropping by for a movement MOT - it was one of the best decisions I have made :)

I have found the pilates at Complete Movement to be highly beneficial both for recovery from temporary back spasms and for helping with long term ankle arthritis. Maureen and her team provide excellent treatment in a well equipped studio.

t's hard to put words to the value I get from pilates with Complete Movement. I went to Maureen for pilates in recovery from a back injury. Working with her, I have improved my core strength, balance and general body awareness no end. I feel equipped to maintain my body now and apply what I've learned from Maureen on a daily basis to enhance my performance in kitesurfing, surfing, skiing and mountain biking and to recover faster from the inevitable aches and pains all these activities cause. If you want to improve your body awareness and reap the many benefits of Pilates in partnership with an open minded and knowledgeable instructor, Maureen at Complete Movement is your woman!

What I love about my one to one sessions with Maureen is that her work is based on her superb understanding of how the body should move - naturally and with ease. She works with me and adjusts each session for me so that I gain greatest benefits. Maureen is a delight to work with. She is a professional of high integrity. I recommend her to my clients too, as I know that she will teach them how how to move in a positive way that supports their recovery from chronic pain.
