Testimonials

Our daughter had been suffering for several months with severe neck and shoulder pain making her withdrawn and very tearful.
Michael was recommended and prior to the appointment our daughter was very withdrawn and in pain. After 1 appointment she came out a ‘different’ girl and literally skipped down the street, her pain had been relieved immensely. Since then she hasn’t complained of pain in her neck and shoulder to any great extent so well done Michael.

“As a professional footballer for some years I have suffered – as is a common condition with many other players , from niggling hamstring pulls and tears.This occurs especially during the pre-season and with periodic massages I had found this alleviated the problem but not eradicated the precise cause.”

“On the advice of a friend, I made an appointment to see Mike (Sterling). After two sessions my problem was cured by both, treatment and a prescription of rehab exercise. He explained that fascia build-ups and when we hold tension to protect or assist with nerve transmission to a particular area, footballers tend to hold that tension in the abdomen (i.e. the psoas). This means that this muscle dominates the glutes and consequently, the lower back and the hamstrings have to work unnecessarily harder.”

“Mike has devised a series of techniques that address this very specific problem. His expertise, knowledge and hands-on-technique need greater exposure and I cannot thank him enough. I now feel sharper and more relaxed both pre and post competition. Many thanks Mike.”

I have been suffering with chronic pain in my neck, lower back and hamstrings for over a year now. I have seen osteopaths and chiropractors with no improvement at all. Twelve months ago I saw a poster in Peak Fitness Advertising the services of Michael Sterling and with nothing to lose I decided to book an appointment. It was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Michael has worked on the areas that caused my pain as well as explaining to me how to prevent further problems. Following treatment my pain is much improved and I cannot thank Michael enough for giving me back my quality of life.

As an international fighter I’ve experienced several therapies over the years to aid competition preparation and injury rehabilitation.
Michael took the time to fully understand the sorts of injuries that my sport can leave me with and spends time targeting the specific areas that are causing me trouble during treatments.
Since seeing him I’ve noticed a marked improvement in my mobility and my posture in general, which is very impressive after only a handful of sessions.
I would recommend Michael to anyone; he is incredibly knowledgeable, efficient and professional.

“I first went to Michael for a bad back I had been suffering from over the years. During the treatment Michael ask me if i suffered from any digestive problems as he said my abdomen was very congested.”

“The same thing causing back pain was also causing problems with my stomach. I am now pain and pill free!! I would recommend Michaels style of treatment which I can see going places.”

I have been regularly seeing Michael for problems with my shoulders ,( i have bad posture and am a secretary)When he mention that he could help me with my acid reflux promblem . I have been taking Omeprozole for three years and wanted to come off them, but was worried about being very uncomfortable again if i did. After just the firts session i felt fabulous , lighter and full of energy and this feeling lasted untill my session the following week.I began to wean myself off the tablets and with Michaels help i am now only taking them if i really nead them( which is rarely). It took me around 8 to 12 sessions on a weekly basis but was worth it. I will be going back for regular maintenance along with some massage for my shoulders Michael is brilliant at too .I would recommend going to see Michael if you suffer from refux and muscular problems. An hour spent with michael is well the money.Michael mention that an operation thats not 100% could cost up to 7000£ !!

I’ve been suffering with migrianes (cluster headaches) for twenty years. When i got a migraine it would last for two hours and all i could do was hide from light and sound. I would have them four times a day, somtimes lasting up to three month periods. I went to the doctor, to a physiotherapist, had crainial osteopathy and general massage. My journey ended when i met michael, who has cured my migrianes. Thank you very much…

Before Michael treated me i had seen several Physiotherapists , although they had helped, none of them had taken away the pain completely and in one session!. Michael has a unique treatmeant plan,something i:ve never come across before, but all i can say is it works!. i am a personal trainer and have sent clients to him and will continue to do so. the fact that he gets results in one session is amazing and he does:nt want you to go back week in week out,as far as Michael is concerned you should be cured pretty much straight away,which is why he probably is;nt a millonaire!. He has help me no end as training was getting pretty difficult for me ,now though,i am on the mend and very happy. Thank you Michael..
