I booked-in for treatment of an achilles injury I've had for over a year. Mark was fantastic and broke-down everything for me so I could understand why the injury had came about and what would be done to treat it. I had a couple of Combination Therapy treatments which have been great, I experienced a noticable improvement after each session. I've continued with the exercise and stretching program provided, and the injury has been fully rehabilitated.

I had been suffering from a suffering from a sore, tight neck and bad headaches for over a month and MSK was recommended to me. My appointment was with Mark who was very friendly, professional and made me feel comfortable straight away. He was quick to realise the issues were tension in my shoulders and neck which was then bringing on the tension headaches. I was treated with combination therapy using different methods of treatment across the affected areas. I went for a follow up appointment a week and a half later and I explained to Mark I had felt so much better. No issues with my neck, no banging head aches. I was so so pleased with how quick I was essentially fixed that I could not recommend MSK enough for anyone with similar issues. The treatment I received was top quality and the staff very experienced and knowledgeable, thanks again.

After struggling with knee pain for quite a while I eventually got in touch with MSK. Now after two sessions, one with Mark and the other with Laura, they honestly feel brand new. The facilities and service are faultless and the combination therapy they offer is excellent. I will definitely be returning for ongoing maintenance.

I was recommended to Mark by my wife. I had been suffering from sciatica for a few months and after the Doctor threw a few pain killers at me which didn't help, decided to go and see what he could do, after one session I feel a lot better and although I still have the pain I know I'm on the the right path now. Could not recommend him enough Makes you feel really comfortable and is very professional.

I was recommended to Mark @ MSK Sports Injury Clinic by a friend of mine. Myself and my son (Thomas) had been looking for someone for a while. Thomas has had sports massages at other places, but never felt a real difference. After one combined therapy session with Mark he was really impressed with it and I had a session focused on sciatica. After I felt like I had a new leg, it was amazing. Couldn’t recommend him enough, he is clear in everything he does and it’s benefits. Makes you feel really comfortable all round amazing service.
Sarah Connelly

I highly recommend MSK sports injury clinic. Combination therapy with Mark has made a massive improvement to my worst ever flare up of it band/knee pain, I can now walk pain free and have started some light jogging again. In addition to massage and tailored combination therapy Mark has sent me stretches and strengthening exercises to support my recovery from injury. I have been so impressed with the service, my treatment and the difference it has made!
Ben Thornton

Mark has used a diverse range of treatments to help me with my knee recovery. He has real depth of knowledge in his field and is obviously passionate about keeping up with the most recent advancements in sports therapy. He offers a professional service in a relaxed environment. Highly recommended.

Found MSK from recommendations on Facebook. Attended for pain related to Plantar Faciitis. Within one session had subsided the pain i suffered for the last year by 75% and after a second visit today already feeling further benefits to being nearly pain free. Mark concentrates on encouraging the body to repair itself and not continuous ongoing rehab. He has the latest in technology and treatments and is leading the way with combination therapy, inclusive of shockwave therapy. These therapies are to aid quicker repair and rehab. I would say it is very affordable and to at least have one visit at least to see an improvement. Speaking to Mark also he has explained and changed my perception on how the body works and the importance of looking after your muscles.For disclosure - despite being a blogger my appointments are fully paid for by myself and this review is my personal recommendation.

Excellent! My son is a 9year old goalkeeper who was struggling with pain in his knee and preventing him fromPlaying. Mark was really flexible and arranged for see us ASAP due to the pain he was in. After 3 sessions and a rehab plan he’s back doing what he enjoys and pain free. I never thought my son would tolerate the therapy but with Mark’s approach with him he’s had the massage gun, cups and acupuncture!! My son actually enjoyed going! We’ll definitely keep going for maintenance therapy. Would very much recommend MSK sports injury clinic! Kerry

I've suffered with sciatica for a few years now my left bum cheek and down my left leg has been numb and randomly gives way when I'm walking... I was training a few weeks back and felt my right side pull and bang I couldn't get out of bed without tears running down my face the next day.... I booked an appointment with Mark and when I went I had cupping and acupuncture he used his drill massager I think it's called and I was amazed at the results I went back the next week to have my left side done... I would reccomend Mark to anyone who suffers with pain and his prices are very reasonable

Having suffered with back pain on and off for 10 years, and been seen many different professions over the years with different results of success. I was recommended Mark and the treatment he provides, I can honestly say that even after only a few sessions I have managed to stay pain free for weeks and am not constantly conscious about the way I pick things up/bending down and generally doing the day to day things. I would seriously recommend this treatment to anyone.Thank you Mark

Amazing services and amazing people, Mark has been treating me for a few month now sorting out my aches and long lasting injury’s which I thought would never go away, a few sessions in and MSK have eased both old and new problems in only a few sessions, explaining everything throughout the course of the treatment it’s helped me have a better understanding of how to avoid these injury’s in the future. MSK always go that extra mile and they’re always looking at new techniques to help their clients.

I’ve visited Mark on a couple of occasions following a compression of my sciatic nerve through running and weak muscles. Mark has a lovely calming nature and puts you at ease instantly, his knowledge shows through as he explains everything in so much detail, offering tips and advice. He used a variety of different treatments on me including cupping which I had never experienced before and the most amazing gun massage machine which is fantastic! I’m currently training for a couple of half marathons this year and Mark is going to be my go to person for help and support on the run up and after these events! Highly recommend

Had a couple of appointments with mark now after struggling with back/knee pain due to competing at a good level of cycling. Had spent a lot of money and time on other physios but hadn’t seen much if any improvement. Got the combination therapy package at MSK and noticed a real difference, my body is feeling so much better and I’ve been able to take my training up a level. Knowledgeable guy and flexible with timings to fit around peoples busy work schedules with a smart easy online booking system. Thanks mark

Attended MSK for the first time about a month ago with constant back pain that was affecting me all the time, after seeing mark my back has never felt better. Mark is super friendly, professional and down to earth and really makes you feel at ease throughout your appointment.

Booked in with Mark through a recommendation and have never looked back, Mark is extremely professional and has very large knowledge of his graft, offering not only sports massage but suction cupping, acupuncture and blunt blade and massage gun massages.

Mark was recommended to me by a trainer/friend. The first time i went to see him was a couple months ago for my shins and calfs as i was struggling to train or run pain free. After one session Mark loosened my calves and and sorted my shins right out.Ive recently been back to see him for stiffness in my knee and lower back pain, he’s diagnosed the issue straight away and started work on resolving it.I’m now booking in for regular sessions as part of my training/recovery programme

Laura Richardson

Absolutely recommended Mark 100%! I spent months trying to train with knee pain, got sent for X-rays which showed nothing and even got to the point of my leg giving way when walking, Mark came highly recommended from numerous friends I train with, he found the problem within minutes (a knot and damage to my quad) 3-4 sessions and the problem is resolved! Also helped me with shin splints, which were resolved quickly, I fee much better now with no pain.
Rob Henderson

I went to msk with a damaged rotar cuff, I have been to 3 psyios, 1 steriod injection and seen 2 doctors before I was recommended to go see Mark. I could barely lift a kettle, 3 sessions in and my arm is pretty much good as new, back at the gym. couldn't recommend this guy enough, he's a genius

Mark was recommended to me by a friend and I was not disappointed. I was struggling to run 2 miles and was around 4 weeks from competing in my first Great North Run. After only 1 session Mark loosened my calves and hamstrings enough I was able to run completely pain free. I do genuinely believe I would have never have been able to complete the GNR had I not been to see him. Definitely will continue to go back as a regular part of my training and preparation.

Known Mark since the days we used to kick lumps out of each other on the footy pitch, nowadays he just fixes the lumps I manage to self impose through training. I’ve seen Mark dedicate the last 8 years to constant progression both in his knowledge, his experience and services he offers. I remember when he started the clinic and it’s been a real pleasure watching him grow his business to where it is today. He fully deserves to be booked out solid for weeks in end, he’s put the time, the effort and the sacrifice into becoming a master of his craft. For that reason I nicknamed him Miyagi 😂 I wouldn’t trust anyone else to sort out my injuries and as a budding practitioner in the making I will be picking his brains and asking for advice for many years to come in a bid to emulate his level of craft. Went to get a really painful lower back issue sorted today, couldn’t get out of the car without pain before it, it was hard to roll over in bed and often would get shooting pains down my leg. One session later and driving isn’t a problem, the stiffness has massively reduced and the shooting pains have gone - talk about value for money! I look forward to continuing my treatment protocols with Mark and celebrating his continued and future success. Nice one Miyagi lad!

Can’t rate MSK combination therapy higher,
I’ve had a rhomboid issue for almost 2 years no amount of Sport massage, Physiotherapy or Chiropractor visits has shifted it. 3 sessions with MSK and I’m really feeling the benefits. So far I’ve had a combination of Deep tissue, Physio, Cupping, Acupuncture, Myofascial release & a blast on the Theragun. Roll on a fully functioning shoulder and upper back 😊

Went to see Mark after he came highly recommended, I was preparing for the Great North Run and genuinely struggling with my calves, 2 days prior to having my consultation I struggled to run 2 mile (this was 3 weeks till the GNR) after an hour with Mark I was able to run 7 miles the following day no problem. I completed the GNR without any tightening in my calves, I do believe I wouldn’t have completed it without his help.

I came across MSK sports injury on internet, rang Mark and he managed to give me an appointment straight away. I have been in severe pain and could hardly walk for 2 weeks with sciatica. Mark was able to identify the problem straight away and after 1 session I definitely noticed a difference, he was even kind enough to see me again the following day on a Sunday for another treatment as i was going on holiday. I cant thank Mark enough for his help and I highly recommend him, he is very friendly and professional and certainly knows his stuff, i will definitely return if i have any more problems

I had suffered with plantar fasciitis for many years and was told by previous physiotherapists that my case was chronic and could not be cured. After only 1 treatment from MSK I was pain free the next morning which is something I hadn’t experienced in years. The problem was fully cured after a very short amount of treatments so I would recommend MSK not only for treatments, but for second opinions as well as that would have had me back to running and physical activity straight away

I have been using Mark for over a year now for shoulder and neck massages and highly recommend him for this type of treatment. He recently added the use of a TheraGun to his treatments which has taken the results to the next level!

Mark is great at what he does! Having a very busy active working lifestyle working on a farm and running a livery Centre he gives me honest and realistic advice which keeps me at work every day pain free.
Would highly recommend him. He has fixed multiple areas for me; Shoulder, lower back, plantar fasciitis and sciatica.

I would definitely recommend Mark to anyone with muscle pain or injuries. As a dancer I've had lots of sports massages that have never completely fixed a problem but after just one session with Mark a pain in my hip flexor was so much better, and the range of movement had also improved so much! Plus he's a nice guy and will make your trip to Westerhope worthwhile.

Mark at MSK Therapy was excellent from start to finish, I was very impressed by his polite customer service skills & professionalism. Intelligent comments he made throughout my treatment made me feel very relaxed knowing this guy really has the knowledge & certifictates to prove it. I had a really bad shoulder for months from lifting, no other treatments would seem to work. A few sessions later & I’m feeling brand new benching cars for fun. Thanks again mate I’m feeling stronger than ever. � �

Mark is a nice, genuine guy & very professional. He puts you at ease & knows what he’s doing. After suffering years of reoccurring back injury i’ve had great results. He’s brilliant, highly recommend his service.

Can not recommend MSK Therapy enough!!!!!!
Mark is so professional and knowledgeable.
Even my GP recommended I visit him to help with a trapped nerve and issues I have with my back.

I was recommended by a friend to MSK, having already seen 3 other therapists i was sceptic to whether it would be worth it, i was suffering from PF, after 2 treatments i am already feeling the benefits, the after care is like no other i have received either, very genuine guy. highly recommended.

Great at what he does. You'll come out feeling like a new person! If you're constantly feeling tight, he'll sort it!

Can highly recommend this therapy I went with what I thought was a problem with my neck/shoulder, to discover it was all to do with the muscles all down my back, i had a few treatments which sorted the problem out.
Would definitely recommend this service.
