Testimonial
"Rosie has magic fingers - and very sharp elbows! But keeping a bunch of ageing International Masters Hockey players on the road also requires an encyclopaedic knowledge of what can go wrong with a sportsman's body, and how to put it right, quickly. Rosie certainly has these skills in abundance as well as an understanding of what sports folk need from a masseur. Scottish Hockey has used Rosie on each of the three occasions we have played in international tournaments in Ireland. Her services have been invaluable in keeping a full squad of players available for each match. She comes highly recommended and is always the first "player" on our team sheet whenever we head for Ireland! "
Alasdair McArthur - Scottish Masters Hockey
"Rosie had the magic touch when I was defending my world and European kart titles. She always gets right to the spot and thankfully kept me in top shape between races. Our whole family have benefitted from her powerful fingers and she is so accommodating at every opportunity, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her."
Charlie Eastwood - European Karting Champion
"I have been seeing Rosie for over 2 years and I highly recommend her, through her excellent treatment I have been able to maintain a physical well being so I can carry on with my work. Rosie does not just cater for sports people, a lot of people suffer back pain or repetitive strains from their everyday work. Rosie can relieve all those aches and pains, making life so much easier and she is so easy to get along with."
Colleen McCann - Nurse
"I have been going to Rosie for about a year now and recommend her highly. Its great having someone who understands whats needed in our sport. Rosie knows where the problems are and works them effectively. (without causing too much pain)"
Eamon Kelly - Cyclist
"I have had regular massage with Rosie for the past three years. Rosie understands what athletes needs and want. I am convinced massage has helped me achieve the results and believe that unless your body is in tip top condition you will never reach your full potential and no amount of expensive equipment can make up for that. I would recommend Rosie whatever your standard, if you want to get the best out of yourself."
