Client Testimonials
She’s fixed my various sporting injuries over the years and understands body mechanics so well to provide holistic treatment.
Doing a multi-disciplined sport your body is put under a great many physical demands, from impact sports to explosive movement, and in the running domain especially, I had numerous injuries and constant niggles.
Whilst at Oxford, Denise helped me to maintain a hard training regime through remedial sports massage, flexibility help and rehab exercise. During my final year at Oxford, Denise allowed me to maintain a higher level and intensity of run training than I had done in previous years at Oxford, and thus in the summer I ran ‘personal bests’. I was able to stay injury free and found the flexibility and core exercises a great help as I was able to train harder and longer, and this was a direct result of the therapy and advice I received from Denise
Denise is truly unparalleled! She combines such a wide range of expert techniques and a deep understanding of the body and how it functions as a whole. In addition, her interest in you as a person and her gift in identifying the real root of problems (even ones you didn’t realise you had) make her seemingly miraculous in her abilities to remedy, strengthen and optimise your performance.
Dancing requires your body to be strong, powerful as well as limber, perfectly balanced and graceful. As a female ballroom dancer, we are required to create huge curves and shapes with our body, which sometimes looks like we are bending over backwards, while dancing backwards and spinning at high speed in — all in 3″ heels!
This puts huge and dangerous strains on the body if done incorrectly. In addition, learning to do all this correctly takes years of training — most dancers start aged 6 so their bodies are conditioned correctly during development. I started age 21, and Denise’s magic has helped to free my muscles so that I can learn to co-ordinate my body naturally from the start and prevent dangerous injuries. She has helped both me and my partner work at our full potential (and even improved his posture so he looks about 15kg lighter!) which has resulted in us achieving a huge amount in a very short space of time.
