John Leonard, Sports Massage Therapist
Meet John

Qualified therapist. Real passion for recovery.

I'm a qualified Sports Massage Therapist and Personal Trainer based in Basildon. My interest started in the gym — and over the years I realised that training well is only half the picture. Recovery is the other half.

Everyone's body, lifestyle and goals are different, so I take time to understand what's going on before tailoring each session to your needs. My treatment room is calm and welcoming — a place to switch off and focus on yourself.

My goal is simple: you leave with a little less pain, a little more movement, and the confidence to get back to doing what you enjoy.
