The Recovery Cave was exactly what I needed after a tough few weeks of training! I tried the massage pod and Normatec compression therapy, and both were amazing. I left feeling so much fresher, looser, and fully recharged. The place has a really calm, welcoming vibe, and everything felt top notch. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone who trains hard or just needs a proper reset!

Alex is really great at what he does. He went through an initial consultation and gave me some useful tips for my workouts as part of the reason for seeing him has been recovery support from the gym. The session was focused, detailed and has really helped my mobility, flexibility and reduced my lower back pain. I would recommend going to see Alex.

This was my second visit to Dr Stretch, and as a fitness instructor who relies on my body for work, regular sports massages are essential for my recovery and performance. I had a wonderful session with Alex, who skillfully stretched and manipulated my rotator cuff and the muscles in my neck and upper back, helping to ease tension from a previous injury. I highly recommend Dr Stretch to friends and family—their service is exceptional, and the professionalism is truly top-tier!

I came to Trang with extremely tight hips, glutes, traps and neck, which had been preventing me from stretching properly and constantly causing pain after strength training sessions. After just one session with her, I felt immediate relief. Trang truly worked wonders on me. She is incredibly knowledgeable and was able to pinpoint and treat my problem areas with ease. Her technique was both effective and tailored to exactly what my body needed. I left feeling looser, lighter, and able to move much more freely. I can’t recommend Trang enough!

David provided a very good deep tissue massage. He was nice and polite and recommended some stretching excecise for me to perform at home. The place is spotlessly clean. Everything looks modern and new, wooden and black. They have a fully equipped gym too. And very important: the bed, also of a modern design, had extra padding around the face area to make it totally comfortable when you are facing down during the massage.

How lucky I am to have found Eduardo. What he does is not just a massage, it’s a deep healing treatment. Finding him has been one of my greatest blessings in London. An incredible technique, remarkable wisdom. Every single movement is filled with health and intention. He gave me back more than I even knew I needed. Thank you so much. 🥹♥️♥️♥️

Very knowledgeable in what he does. Upper body session really improved my shoulder strength and ranges. Highly recommend to anyone in London.

CrossFit sessions were leaving my shoulders and upper back feeling overworked, particularly with overhead lifts. Had a one hour sports massage and noticed the difference straight away. Movement felt cleaner and more stable in my next workout, and recovery between sessions has been much quicker. It felt very specific to the way I train.

Mar 28, 2026

Eduardo is a great instructor. Very knowledgeable and clear in explaining movements and posture. He motivates and pushes you. He gave me very valuable tips on how to use gym equipment and maximise my training. I would definitely recommend!

I had a really good sports massage at Rep Studio. My back was feeling very tight from training and heavy exercise, and after the session I felt so much better. The pressure was perfect and very targeted to the areas that needed it most. I left feeling looser, lighter and much more mobile. Highly recommend!

I could not recommend Cornell enough - he made me feel so comfortable and cared for, and the improvement of my lower leg injury after just one hour is incredible. I have never been to a physio before and had no expectations but have walked away feeling in a much better position, with tips and exercises too to maintain my recovery. I saw him in dr stretch in hackney, which was a really calming and private space and easy to find. 10/10 would recommend and a huge thank you to Cornell who was so lovely and supportive.

I had a physiotherapy consultation and treatment for my neck with Shahana, and I was really impressed. She is very knowledgeable, professional, and thorough in her assessment. She explained the cause of my neck pain clearly and provided effective hands-on treatment along with helpful exercises and posture advice. I felt listened to throughout the session, and there was noticeable relief afterwards. I highly recommend Shahana to anyone looking for expert physiotherapy for neck pain, stiffness, posture-related issues, or musculoskeletal rehabilitation.

Recovery Cave was such a great experience. The massage was super relaxing, professional, and exactly what I needed. The atmosphere was calm and welcoming, and I left feeling refreshed and stress-free. Definitely recommend if you need to unwind and recover.

I’ve been going to Rodrigo for years and I can honestly say he has the best hands I’ve ever experienced. Every session is spot on — he knows exactly where the tension is and how to work it out. He’s a true professional, incredibly knowledgeable, and someone I fully trust with my recovery and wellbeing. Whether it’s for sports-related issues or just general muscle tightness, he always delivers amazing results. I always leave feeling so much better, both physically and mentally. Couldn’t recommend Rodrigo more highly — 5 stars all the way! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I can’t recommend this osteopath highly enough. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and completely at ease. They took the time to really listen to my concerns and explained everything clearly before starting treatment. The session was thorough, professional, and incredibly effective — I noticed a real improvement straight away. The clinic is clean, calm, and well run, and you never feel rushed. If you’re looking for someone knowledgeable, caring, and genuinely invested in your recovery, this is the place to go.

I had a 30-minute shockwave therapy session for my plantar fasciitis with Shahana. During the appointment, they also took time to examine my foot, explain the condition, and suggest the best treatment plan and exercises. The session felt thorough and professional, and I really appreciated that it wasn’t rushed. The clinic staff were very welcoming, and the reception was friendly and helpful.

I’ve been seeing Eduardo for over 3 years and can’t recommend him highly enough. As a weightlifting and CrossFit coach, my body is under constant load, and his work has been essential for my recovery and performance. He has helped me with plantar fasciitis, tight calves and hips, carpal tunnel, and rotator cuff issues. As a mum of three, his treatments also help release everyday stress and tension. Eduardo is highly skilled, intuitive, and truly understands the athletic body. An absolute game-changer for my health and wellbeing.

Anisha is an amazing osteopath. I’ve been seeing her regularly this year with various issues in my neck, lower back, hip flexors etc. I always come away feeling better and no injury or pain seems to concern her. She always finds a solution! I’ve been given a few exercises but it’s nothing excessive or unachievable and they always help too.
