What our clients in Norwich have to say
Tracy De Sousa03/12/2023Chris was so very helpful in sorting out my back for me always making me feel at ease with all aspects of his treatment! He would come highly recommended and I will definitely be recommending him to all family and friends 😊
Kenneth Betts12/11/2023After struggling many weeks with muscular pain and being unable to sit, I decided to visit Chris's practice. After only one visit to him, I'm relieved to say I'm now pain free. I recommend Chris highly.
Timothy Shelley03/11/2023My wife has recently had a couple of sessions with Chris Greenslade. She found him to be extremely professional, considerate and caring. Besides the hands on treatment for her head, neck and shoulder problems he also gave her advice and several exercises to carry out at home. She will not hesitate to return for further treatment if necessary, in the future.
Victoria Briggs02/11/2023Great service from Chris. He was able to quickly diagnose what was causing my back issues, and delivered very effective treatments. He also recommended some exercises to continue to keep the area mobile. I would definitely recommend him.
Elliot Wibberley01/11/2023Chris has a high level of expertise and knowledge . My back was chronic and within one session I was relieved to be more mobile . I highly recommend this service which I believe is good value for money
Kerry Jones13/10/2023Saw Chris as I had a problem with my shoulder, absolutely brilliant, had me sorted in 2 sessions & followed up with exercises after my first appointment, would recommend
Nicola Durrant04/10/2023Chris was great at sorting out my back. Was very professional making me feel welcome, comfortable and at ease. Would highly recommend him.
Liam Thurston30/09/2023Chris helped me with three minor injuries. Very informative and professional. He provided me with exercises and allowed enough time between sessions for them to work. I would recommend his service.
Steve Leese23/09/2023Great service, have used Apollo a few times now over the last few years for a recurring back problem. Unfortunately this time had to wait a couple of days for an appointment, however once there Chris sorted out my back problem, booked a follow up for a week later and probably didn't really need it to be honest, but was good to have the additional treatment just to ensure it was fixed! Thanks Chris
Deborah Broughton09/09/2023I made an appointment with Chris as I was unable to walk because of hip/lower back pain. Chris was knowledgeable and professional. The treatment he gave me was effective and after two appointments I am pain free. He also gave me some simple exercises to prevent recurrence. I would recommend Chris without hesitation.
Frequently asked questions
Sports massage is a form of massage involving the manipulation of soft tissue to benefit a person engaged in regular physical activity or assist those with general aches and pains. Sports massage is designed to assist in correcting problems and imbalances in soft tissue that are caused from repetitive and strenuous physical activity and trauma. The application of sports massage, prior to and after exercise, may enhance performance, aid recovery and prevent injury.
Generally speaking it would benefit everyone to have a regular sports massage once every week/two weeks, however this is not always possible. The honest answer is most tend to opt for a monthly/six-weekly treatment to keep them ticking over and prevent the onset of aches and pains. If, however, you have specific demands that add extra stress/strains to the body then it is about finding a schedule that most reflects your needs.
Unlike other massage therapies, Sports Massage uses deep-tissue techniques intent on adapting the current state of play in the underlying tissues and thus is likely to cause some discomfort. Contrary to popular belief practitioners should endeavour to keep things below the pain threshold and keep things at a level of discomfort rather than ‘jump off the couch’ level pain. However, most describe the sensation as a nice or good pain.
Sports Massage, unlike the name suggests, is not just for those that partake in organised sports or physical activity. It is a system of techniques and philosophy intent on treating and aches and pains derived from the soft tissues of the body (muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia). Therefore, if you suffer from any aches and pains that you feel are related to any of your soft tissues, then a sports massage is likely a good option for you.
As Sports Massage requires direct contact to the body we ask that you wear clothing that allows us to see and work on the area that is painful. If you are coming in for a whole body session then please wear something that is appropriately covering but allows us to see the whole body e.g. shorts for men and shorts and bra/top for women. Please ensure it’s something you are comfortable with.
