On finishing medication prescribed by my GP at 27, I understood that recurrent back pain (through wear & tear) was going to bother me for the rest of my life and there was nothing I could do about it.

My fiancé, who had received personal training from Stephen, organised an appointment for him to give me a massage in my home as he thought he could help me, (I didn’t, my doctor would have told me if there was anything else that could have been done surely?). However, a massage would be nice I thought. After my therapy session, he advised to stretch daily and train to strengthen my back. With an open mind I took the advice and booked a PT session. I have never taken pain relief for my back since and that one treatment was sufficient.

Whilst strengthening my back, I also wanted to look good for my wedding and 3 months later, under Stephen’s expert guidance, I was in the best shape I have ever been in. I stopped training and went on to have 2 pregnancies within 2 years. As a result of pregnancy, bad diet, lack of exercise and no stretching, I was in terrible shape and my back pain had came back and was gradually getting worse. I knew to contact Stephen as I knew I could do more harm than good training myself.

In my opinion what sets Stephen apart from other PT’s is his years of experience, in depth knowledge of nutrition, physiology & anatomy. During the initial consultation he acknowledges your strengths and weaknesses and advises accordingly. He works in conjunction with you and takes into account all factors of your lifestyle. He makes you aware the impact these have with an aim to improving your overall health and well-being. He takes a non judgemental and professional approach.

I go to my Doctors for medication, Dentist for oral health and Stevie for physical health.
