I've just had my first appointment with Mark, and I couldn’t be more happy to have found him. Mark was so friendly, professional and calm, he was also extremely thorough, and we seemed to cover a huge amount in one session. I came away with detailed stretches and exercises to help strengthen my knee, as well as the confidence to get past the situation mentally, and I am already feeling less pain! Mark was very sensitive to how the treatment was for me, and continually checked in with me as he worked with my knee. I did feel very listened to, something which is really important to me, and something I have rarely experienced in a practitioner. I think Mark has a real gift, a huge amount of knowledge, and I couldn’t recommend him more highly.

I had gone to see Mark with neck and shoulder pain and I could not fault his professionalism, he was very thorough throughout the consultation and Mark completely alleviated my pain through manual therapy and a structured exercise program. I thoroughly recommend Mark to anyone. Thanks Mark for giving me back full movement/mobility in my neck and shoulder.

Mark is an excellent sports massage therapist! I went to see him with a reduced range of motion in my neck following an exercise injury; he was highly accommodating and provided me with exercises to alleviate tension in the area after the treatment. I strongly recommend him.

I went to see Mark to get some help with tight shoulders/neck. He listened carefully and provided targeted treatment to ease the tension in my shoulders, neck and related areas. He went out of his way to provide additional support with an Achilles injury I've been suffering with. Following the treatment, Mark sent a clear and detailed email containing recommended stretches/exercises. Would highly recommend.

I went to Mark with a really sore back & a history of sore hips, which no previous physio or osteopathy had helped. Mark really listened to me, working through all the connecting muscle groups, finding out where the problem stemmed from, checking in with me through the whole process. Mark made me feel at ease through each session with his knowledge and professionalism. I am astounded, after just 3 sessions the difference is incredible & my pain is gone. I can’t recommend Mark enough.

Mark was very thorough in his examination and treatment and gave great advice on exercises I was able to do outside of the treatment room. His follow up was also first class, I would definitely recommend.

I went to see Mark for some relief of tired muscles from training. Mark spent time finding out my weaknesses and was extremely professional and knowledgeable about how he could help. I felt so much better after seeing Mark, I can thoroughly recommend him to anyone who needs a sports massage. He even gave me numerous exercises to do at home, and was happy to help with after care. Thank you Mark for a first class service, I will be back.

At the end of June I couldn’t run round a football pitch without pulling up owing to leg strains and pains. Within 3 months and after 3 sessions with Mark, and doing my homework exercises I was able to run a half marathon. Amazing! Mark cares, is dedicated, professional and knows his stuff.

I went to Mark seeking some help with a broken femur which has left my left leg very weak with pain around the knee and limited mobility. His hands-on treatment has been excellent and with the home exercises I feel that I am moving in the right direction to be able to become more mobile again. He is empathetic and understanding of my concerns. I am very confident in seeing Mark for future treatments.

Have a rotary cuff injury which was not improving with exercises given by physiotherapists. Mark was recommended by a friend and at my first appointment with him he gave me hands on manipulation of the shoulder. After this consultation the pain has reduced and movement in my shoulder has improved so that I can now do the exercises Mark has given me to follow up. I would highly recommend him.

I was fit and healthy and had a love for long walks as well as spending hours pottering around the many Garden Centres. I had a fall which resulted in breaking my ankle. I had treatment to heal my ankle but for years I suffered; I found I couldn’t even walk into Cheltenham Town centre. I was in agony and gave up all hope to walk again like I once did. I then found Mark Soo and his approach and exercise were so different. He built a unique programme of recovery tailored to me. His patience is second to none and today I feel like a different person.

I presented with a swollen foot that was serious enough to cause me to limp. A year and a half of conventional advice led to shoe insoles and little more. One season was lost and an upcoming overseas tour was threatened when I discovered Mark Soo. His approach was totally different. He explained the interconnecting muscle structures that link the leg and the foot. He massaged both areas and left me with exercises that primarily exercised the leg muscle leading to the foot. This strategy has worked. Mark Soo instills confidence because he knows how the body works and treats accordingly.

Having being introduced to Mark, I found him very professional and understanding of my back and shoulder problems. His analysis has pointed out more than one singular reason for the pains and as such his treatment is working very well. Mark has also given me exercises to do at home to compliment his treatment. He is very informative and good at explaining what needs to be done to put things right and I highly recommend him.

I have a chronic issue of stiff neck and shoulders due to long hours of desk work and frequent travel. I used to get Thai and Shiatsu massages but once I experienced Mark's sports massage, I realized his treatment gives me a much longer term effect on my body. It's because his treatment addresses underlying problems related to my muscles that create pains and dysfunctions. He always gives me a clear analysis of what's wrong with my muscles and body alignment, what kind of exercise would help to resolve the problem, etc. I highly recommend anyone with issues like me to try out his service!
