About Report

My career in soft tissue therapy, health, fitness and nutrition initially started way back in 1997 when I started studying towards my GNVQ (probably called something completely different now!) in sports therapy and fitness.

After gaining my level 3 GNVQ I also studied towards, and gained, coaching badges in football, boxing and basketball which over the years I put to use in gyms, secondary schools, youth clubs, groups and projects and for the youth offending service running a football project.Being a small business I am able to get to know my customers and I pride myself in offering a professional, friendly and specialised service.

Therapy Report

Massage and soft tissue therapies have been practised for thousands of years and been used across the world and have almost evolved alongside us. The ancient Egyptians, Indians/Hindu's and Chinese believed that massage formed an invaluable part of medicine and healthcare and that touch could bring about a positive impact in both healing and relaxation.

Mobility Report

Moving as freely and easily as we can is important for our health, mood, independence and confidence. Massage and soft tissue therapy are great for improving and maintaining good mobility. Good, balanced mobility allows us to perform almost any task and it shouldn't be restricted to just the young, fit, healthy or athletic.

Recommended, First relief helped me out with a niggling knee problem I'd been living with for nearly 2 years. Friendly and approachable. They also got me moving again after a sciatica attack - from hobbling to completing a 100mile bike event in 2 1/2 weeks. Thank you Gianni.

Been a massive help with my ongoing sciatic nerve issues. A very professional and positive service with a great deal of knowledge in helping ease the pain and very good advice to help keep at bay.... I have been back several times and highly recommend.

I've had an ongoing shoulder problem for years and was advised to have massage treatment.
Gianni made me feel relaxed straight away and he explained the reasons why I've got a bad shoulder and how the massages help. He really knows his stuff!
After just 3 massages my shoulder feels better than it has for years!
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

I went to Gianni with an ongoing shoulder problem. His knowledge & technique have helped to relieve a lot of the discomfort I was experiencing. He makes you feel very relaxed & explains what your problems are in an easy to understand way.

I was suffering from niggling shoulder pains probably from lifting something wrongly when Gianni said he could help with massage. I only needed one session and his massage relieved all the pains almost immediately. I was incredibly grateful.
There is no need to suffer pain when there is help at hand. I certainly wouldn't hesitate in recommending Gianni or using his services again.

After I broke five bones in my foot I thought things would improve once my cast came off. I didn't realise that there is more to recovery then just healed bones. First Relief helped me make a full recovery and my left foot feels as strong as my right. No more nagging aches in the morning or pins and needles. It wasn't just the massage, it was the fact First Relief took time to look at my posture, gait and listened to me. I was given advice on keeping mobile and rebuilding my strength.
First Relief were thorough, attentive and very knowledlable
