I'm proud to be able to share these with you...

Mel helped me to prepare for the 2009 HellRunner event. After picking up a few injuries during my training particularly with my shins and calves, Mel’s sports massage really helped to relax and flush out tired and stressed muscles, and gave me renewed energy. A very good firm deep tissue massage. Not only relaxing, but useful corrective techniques were applied to ease long-standing tensions, which have really made a difference! From my first visit, Mel was extremely professional and made me feel totally at ease. After a few sessions, I could definitely notice a difference in my legs, where previously I was experiencing pain when running. Tom Needham, Leeds

I have been having sports massage from Melanie Smith at Fusion Health since April 2009. As a regular runner, cyclist and gym member I have hugely benefited from this treatment. It has helped me recover from a quadriceps muscle tear injury, improve my performance and provided me with a solid foundation on which to base my training regime. The service provided by Fusion Health is exemplary: not only does Melanie provide excellent customer service but she is also on hand to provide post-massage advice and general training tips to help me improve my performance. She is both friendly and professional, putting me at ease and ensuring that a sometimes inevitably painful sports massage is as comfortable and enjoyable an experience as possible. I would not hesitate in recommending Melanie to anyone interested in sports massage and have already referred many of my friends to her, with similarly positive results. Rachel Casey, Leeds

I have been working on my fitness with Mel now for 6 months and can thoroughly recommend her to anyone (and I have done!). She's "firm but fair" with me and never fails to get the best out of me, even when I'm not looking forward to working out. The one thing I needed was the motivation to work out, I'd been going to gyms for years but never seemed to be getting much out of the time I spent there. After only a few sessions with Mel, my body shape started changing, my posture changed and I really started to notice a difference in my fitness levels. Of course I'm doing this for me but it's great when people comment on how good I'm looking these days! Thanks Mel, even for the tough sessions! Simon Dawson, Thorner
