Andrew's sense of humour will see any patient through their pain. He's very good and analytical. He invented a whole new sort of strapping for an unusual ankle injury. This is usually what happens when we go - He has a chat about what the problems are. He examines the problem area. He gives you some treatment (see his website for more details) and finally sends you home with some exercises. It almost always works! He also has in a team of other phisios so the clinic is open all kinds of convenient times for people who have to go to work.

Andrew Seary has an excellent reputation as a very experienced physiotherapist, and his clinic is…read morewell-established and well-respected. He himself works with local sports clubs and has worked with the Welsh Rugby Union for 14 years, even touring New Zealand with the national squad. The great thing about treatment at this physio clinic is the emphasis on SELF help. His clinic is really professional and friendly, offering a full range of physio treatments from massage and soft tissue mobilisation to acupuncture, ultrasound and TENS machine treatment for pain relief. As a patient, you're given rehabilitation exercises to do at home to help you recover, which can include stretches and strengthening exercises and often look at posture and core stability. This aims to put some of the control over the condition into your hands, so you can help yourself to get better. The only down side for me is the clinic's location in Whitchurch, but for others who live locally this will be a positive - and at least for those of us who don't there are two car parks very close by!

Unless you're a UWIC student, a UWIC employee, or a member of a local sports team, you might not…read moreknow that UWIC Sports Massage Clinic exists - but it's actually open to the public, and offers sports massage from just £11. That's not a price that's easy to match at other clinics in Cardiff! Sports massage can help you not only if you have a sporting injury but also if you have poor circulation, a tense neck, achy shoulders or back, poor posture, tired or aching muscles, or poor flexibility. You pay for a session with a qualified and insured practitioner registered with the Sports Massage Association (SMA). I tried the place when I had a cricked neck, and found the massage helped to relieve the problem and enable me to move my neck more, and start exercising it a bit to get it back to normal. The surroundings aren't quite as salubrious as you might find at a more expensive clinic, and it's only open on Tuesdays and Thursdays - but it's still exceptionally good value.

Holistic massage is the therapeutic and sensitive use of touch, tailored to a client's individual physical and emotional needs, in order to promote positive change in the client. No two treatments are alike; depending on the clients needs, holistic massage treatment can have wide-ranging benefits. What are the benefits? On a physical level, it can work with all the body, often improving skin tone, relaxing and soothing sore muscles, bringing greater flexibility and movement to stiff joints, allowing more relaxed breathing, aiding the body in recovering post-exercise and post-illness and bringing relief from constipation, IBS and fatigue. On an emotional level, massage can help you to relax, to have greater energy,to sleep more easily,and to become more centred and peaceful. Non-intrusive caring touch offers a feeling of greater selfawareness and self acceptance. 'I have always found Jake's massage very personalised to my condition. He is clearly capable of delivering many massage techniques, but seemed only to choose those which were appropriate and beneficial to me at the time. he has also allowed me to understand a new kind of self-awareness. Through his massage and consultation he has helped me understand the relationship between my negative emotional responses to day to day life and the transferal of tension to my body. Once I bagan to understand this, and feel it as it happened, I became able to choose not to tense, and not take on so much negative emotion. I feel this was a very important realisation for me, I genuinely feel very grateful to him for it. His passion and ability to understand the coupling between the mind and the body is very special.' M. Sheridan Chartered Engineer 'Massage with Jake Crocker was deeply healing on both a physical and emotional level.
