Massage Testimonials
Feedback from some of my happy clients.
Thanks so much for yesterday. I’ve got to say it’s the best my back and hamstrings have felt for such a long time. I’m really keen to completely sort my back out and I think it’s you that’s going to be able to help me with this.
Tatina combines both sports massage technique with sensitivity and understanding. I always benefit from her immense knowledge of the body under stress.
I have been seeing Tatina for the last 8 years. I go every 4 weeks for deep tissue massage which relieves the stress in my back and legs.
l go because it’s like maintenance for me. If I didn’t go then my back would go into spasm. I did have an operation about 11 years ago and had problems, but after seeing Tatina as I do I have managed to keep it under control. Tatina always manages to get into the muscles that seem to be giving me grief and the following day seems to be good.
I would very highly recommend Tatina for treatment.
Tatina has been massaging me for over 6 years. I have been to dozens of practitioners and find her one of the best. She can go very deep where most massage therapists cannot and yet she has tremendous sensitivity. She is incredibly gifted, and knows her anatomy, and has what some
would call a spiritual quality.
I have had the pleasure of being massaged by Tatina. Despite the fact that I am not a professional sports person and don’t have urgent need for sports massage, I find Tatina’s massages more thorough and useful than any other massage I’ve had before. In fact, they make my previous massages seem almost superficial. Tatina has an amazing ability to understand your aches and pains and to work into these areas so that the massage is both relaxing but also incredibly relieving. I find that after a massage with Tatina, any aches or tensions I experience (headaches and shoulder pain due to crouching over computers) are alleviated. I would certainly recommend Tatina to anyone – both professional sports players but also to ‘normal’ everyday people who experience the stress of day-to-day life! Tatina is extremely professional and has an open and welcoming personality which is an essential trait in a masseuse.
As dancers we put tremendous force and pressure on our bodies daily.
I have had many injuries, including 5 major surgeries throughout my 10 year career and with the proper physio and massage treatment, I’m happy to say all my recoveries have been fully successful.
Tatina’s intuition with the dancers body, through her extensive knowledge and technique is exactly what I needed to keep on stage. Through her treatment, my recovery time from fatigue has been subsided immensely. It’s very reassuring to know I’m in the best hands, as every dancer knows the importance of their body and career.
Tatina is a popular member of the team, professional at all times and because she enjoys her work so much here, she brings a positive, upbeat attitude to the end of our week.
Just wanted to say thanks for a wonderful massage the other day! It was great to be able to feel what some of the movements should feel like along with the pressure and fluidity. Funnily enough I was massaging someone yesterday who had a similar issue. From them hardly being able to move I had them up and about and able to do some gentle stretching at the end – very satisfying!
I have been getting treatments from Tatina for many years now and her massages play a big part in my ‘dancer life’ and everyday life. It helps me to maintain my body on top form. She is a wonderful therapist because she is GREAT at her job but also because she LOVES what she does and to help people to get better or maintain them in great shape.
It’s always a bit of a race between the dancers on Wednesdays to try to get their names on the booking list for Tatina’s treatments every Friday.
I feel I’m in very safe hands when I’m being treated by Tatina, because of her thorough knowledge of the human musculoskeletal and nervous system. I think it takes a lot of courage and trust to allow your body (and therefore your mind) to be in the hands of another, especially in an often stressful profession where sports injuries are common place.
Tatina is sensitive to the emotional needs of her clients as well as the physical. She treats the body with compassion and a soulful understanding. I always come away from my appointment feeling nurtured and restored, always looking forward to the next time!
I’ve been suffering quite some time with a bad nerve pain running from the middle of my back, down my arm into the forearm. Not sure whether it’s a mixture of all the partnering work in ballet and riding a motorbike, but Tatina has certainly managed to find a way of calming the pain. Good thing is; it’s immediate. Amazing hands!
