Sports and Remedial Massage Practitioner
"Having treatments with Lee has helped me recover from injuries and niggles quickly, and helped me to get the most from my training sessions. Lee took the time to note specific areas for treatment and focused on those. He didn't waste time on non problematic areas.
"The treatment gave me more confidence in my training and made me more positive before competition that any weaknesses had been addressed.
"This I feel helped me win the British Ju-jitsu championships. I would have no hesitation in recommending Lee to friends, family or students".
