Testimonials


I have the pleasure of employing Vissen as my trainer on a regular basis.  I can honestly say, that through his motivation, and inspiration, my body has changed shape (for the better).   It is always a pleasure to be greeted by Vissen, regardless of my mood, as he always succeeds in making me work hard, and feel great.  I could not fault his personal training, as it is never the same week to week, and I always think that he is supporting me all the way.  I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

As an x-ballet dancer I am definitely a fussy customer.

I know what I like and I tend to be quite vocal during a therapy session. Vissen brings his gentle energy along with knowledge and experience and gauges your body's stress and pain levels. I usually like a lot of pressure during a massage, and Vissen brings a great mix of techniques in order to conquer the problem area.

You want to feel like the muscles have been worked but with care and sensitivity.ie knowing how far to push. This is something a lot of therapists do not get a grasp of, and I usually come away thinking I could have done it better. Yes- I am a difficult customer, but having said that I have recommended Vissen, time and time again.

I have been seeing Vissen for sports massage for just under a year.  I've had a long term back problem for 15 years which I'm finally getting some relief from. Not only do I feel that my back has practically been re-structured but I have a better understanding of why and how too. Vissen is very patient, very approachable, knowledgeable and flexible when making appointments. As my personal trainer as well, I feel confident in the programme that I'm given and what my goals are, which I keep changing.

I just wanted to say how I enjoyed training with Vissen; I decided to hire a personal trainer 6 months after giving birth, initially because I had a bad back following the birth and wanted to get back into shape.

Vissen is very caring and personable, always listening, motivating and encouraging, without being pushy.

It's been hard work but great fun too and the results have been amazing. Not only I've gone back to my original pre-birth weight but I'm also very toned up, especially in the lower back/stomach area.

It's also helped me regained my confidence back and gave me some great breathing space whilst on maternity leave.

I'm now 7th months pregnant and still very fit, my tummy muscles are much stronger and tighter than for my first pregnancy and I've put on very little weight so far...I never thought I would feel this good!

I would recommend training with Vissen anytime!

Vissen inspires confidence. He has treated me for a long-standing lower back problem and for more recent neck pain, with good results in both cases.  His manner is unfailingly courteous. Sessions with him are a pleasure.

I first consulted Vissen for sports massage when I had a sports injury to my shoulder.  Vissen made me feel immediately at ease with his calm, friendly manner. He has an excellent technique which gets to the knot of the problem. I have since been back due to upper back problems and the treatments received, although not always comfortable, give great results.  I feel that I get the full package with the additional advice on posture and exercises to continue following a session.
