GOOGLE REVIEWS:
'Fantastic massage / clinical therapy in Stainsacre, Whitby. Leonie is great, starting with an initial short professional consultation to assess what we think is the issue and where and what to target. Leonie then got straight to work explaining what she was going to do and why, making you feel relaxed throughout. This all takes place in a purpose built private pod, which is warm and relaxing.
Parking is free, as it is just out of town, and right outside the venue, so again no stress needed finding car parks.
Felt great afterwards. Definitely helped me. Give Leonie a call, or drop a
message over to book, you will not be disappointed' - G (2023)
'Following a short consultation, Leonie used a variety of techniques in a full body treatment that left me feeling relaxed and all my aches and niggles had been taken away. I was offered a choice of essential oil blends and the sound of birds song from the garden was enchanting.
As the treatment room is in Stainsacre; just outside of Whitby, there was no stress or worry over parking, which I find puts me off using facilities in the town centre. Simply park outside and Leonie shows you through to the delightful garden pod treatment room' - Emma Locker (2023)
'An NHS physiotherapist recommended additional therapy in between treatments, specifically on my neck/shoulders after an accident. Not knowing where to go, a friend put me in touch with Leonie.
She assessed me thoroughly during the appointment, confirming what treatment I was currently receiving and the painful areas.
My treatment was nothing short of magical and such a relief, particularly to my neck. A consummate professional and very easy to talk to. Highly recommended' - Jonah Jones. (2023)
'I visited Leonie nearly 2 years ago out of desperation. Arthritis and an artificial knee had left me vey inflexible and in pain that wasn’t helped by poor posture. I couldn’t even put my socks on.After A clinical massage I felt better and over time Leonie addressed my twisted hips and posture. I walked better ,felt better and some of the pain had gone. She suggested I linked her treatments with a regular personal training service offered by her husband. It turned out to be a really good decision. Richard targeted my flexibility in conjunction with Leonie’ s observations about my present muscle status.I had lost the ability to squat or do lunges but over time Richard taught me to do them all again. They dealt with my needs and after a year I was flexible enough to put my socks on by myself. It may seem a small thing but until you lose a simple ability like that you do not know how precious your health is.
I have continued to make progress over time and I would recommend each of them unreservedly but my experience has been that with them working in tandem the results are greater than the sum of the individual parts. It also helps that they are incredibly nice and patient people'

'Treated myself to a full body massage today. After being non stop dancing for 4 months. Covered in knots and tension. However after just 1 hour I felt as good as new. She's a great therapist and really focused on the worse areas. Would really recommended anyone! Such an affordable cost too. Loved it. Will 100% be going again!' - Keeley May Clarkson (Feb 2017)
'Brilliant. Very relaxing and holistic approach. Helpful, with therapy and treatment that accommodates any physical needs. Great understanding of disability. As a person with mild cerebral palsy, I felt immediately at ease and enabled. There are a few steps up to the property but, again, help is available.
I went for a 45 minute shoulder and lower back massage. I was suffering with a lot of knots and built up muscle spasms. Perfect pressure was applied and the approach was adapted throughout. Two days later, I feel brand new! We had great easy going conversation, which made the situation comfortable and easier than other services in town. With a 'no rush' feel and no preconceptions. Clients are all equally important and made to feel that way. I'd recommend this service to anyone. Especially if you're looking for understanding and care when it comes to any additional needs in regard to disability' - Charles Kirby (Sept 2016)
