"Being an endurance swimmer, I clock up a lot of mileage in the pool every week which puts a lot of pressure and strain on my body. Since seeing Kevin on a regular basis (for remedial and sports massage) to assist me in recovery and ensure my muscles are kept at an optimum level to train hard and perform, I believe my consistency in the water has improved dramatically.
I have been seeing Kevin for the last two and a half years which correlates to the period of time where I started making big breakthroughs and finding impressive form in my sport. I have worked with many masseurs on Australian Teams who are considered the best in elite sporting circles and in my opinion Kevin has better technique and is more attuned to finding exactly what your body needs than most.
He is very experienced, professional and takes great pride in offering his skilful service while providing a very warm, caring and relaxed environment. Consultation is not limited by time either, but rather when he is satisfied that he has achieved what your body needs which greatly exceeds what any patient would expect."

WHAT PEOPLE SAY
"I have been heavily involved in sport for over 10 years. Initially I suffered many injuries so I decided to try regular massage especially when training is most intense.
Besides allowing me to train more frequently as recovery is better, I have not had an injury in over 5 years.
During this time I have introduced my son Paul to regular massage as he too plays sport at a high level.
Kevin has prevented possible injuries by identifying problems areas whilst massaging Paul."
