"You're definitely at the top of my recommendation list"
I came in a week ago for treatment on my IT band ahead of the Venice marathon on Sunday. I wanted to drop a note of thanks - I not only made it around the course but knocked 9 minutes off my PB. I am sure I wouldn't have managed if I hadn't come to see you; excellent work, massive appreciation. You're definitely at the top of my recommendation list.

"Your treatments were an integral part of my training, recovery and injury prevention"
I survived the marathon, despite the heat on the day, and finished with an official time of 3h:27m:15s. Needless to say, I was quite pleased with the result, having achieved all of my most ambitious time goals, and more importantly, sticking to my gameplan of going out at a very steady pace, and finishing strong (my last 3 miles were my fastest splits).
