Some may experience minor headaches as their body adapts to change & waste materials are pushed into the blood.

Just some of her Testimonials…

As a Personal Trainer, regular runner and cyclist Nicky has been treating me for a number of years. I rely on her sports massage to keep me and my legs in good shape and free from injury. I would really recommend the Thai massage too which is a completely different energising experience – I feel brilliant afterwards. Peter W.

I am suffering from a chronic condition known as stenosis of the spine. This condition is very restricting and causes a great deal of pain when attempting to walk any distance. It is very debilitating. At the age of 69 I am finding it more difficult to do so many things we would normally take for granted in life.

Nicky has been treating me for over two years and I can only say what her treatment does for me is just wonderful. Nicky is very caring and most professional in her procedures. The after effects of her treatment give me more pain free movement in my limbs and a wonderful relaxed state of wellbeing. I would not hesitate in recommending Nicky’s unique hands on treatment to anyone. – Jim Porter

I recently visited Nicky for a sports massage and can say that I’m feeling 10 times better than before I went in! So I can’t speak highly enough about the place, nice and easy to get to and Nicky is lovely – I would definitely recommend giving her a visit! Mr Mills 17th Feb 2019

I can’t recommend Nicky highly enough. She has the magic touch when it comes to massages. I go to her regularly, sent family when they’ve been visiting – and ask for her gift vouchers for my Christmas stocking! Zenchi Clinic offers a range of quality services.- Sue Miller 17th Nov 2019

Had a really fantastic massage, will definitely be back. Great knowledge and really listened to me and therefore really tailored the treatment to my personal needs. Emma G.

Huge thanks to Nicky for helping to relieve a fair amount of muscle tension with her relaxing back massage. Tightness in the neck and shoulders is an unfortunate side effect of being a writer and stick behind a computer for many hours a day! Thanks Nicky, I’ll be back for more soon! Lorna. M. 17th Nov’2019.

I had the most relaxing time at the zenchi clinic with Nicky. I had a pregnancy massage, she was really thorough, getting rid of all my aches and pains, as well as being very conscientious of my comfort with the bump! Highly recommend. Mrs Best. 27th April 2019

Thank you for the recent deep leg massage you gave me. When I arrived my legs were very swollen due to water retention, my ankles and knees were painful and my left leg in particular was very heavy; I felt I was dragging it after me. But since the two massages and following your advice my agility is markedly improved. I feel I am able to walk much better and for longer. I am more confident in moving up and down steps and my knees no longer feel so painful. I am really pleased at the effect of the treatment, even my lower back feels more free. – G.D. Wrexham
