Does anyone know of an excellent sports masseur in Christchurch?  You know, the kind that can really get into all those niggly climbers' bits...Undecided

Charles at Christchurch Theraputic Massage

 

I went to him regularly for quite a while. He is excellent! Crazy strong hands, excellent anatomical knowledge, and plenty of experience with actual sport massage (Olympics if I remember correctly...).

He also lays a big emphasis on not overdoing the massage and causing pain, unlike some other massage therapists (like the last one I went to...where it hurt for 6 months afterward 'cause he just blindly dug in... Undecided).

I very highly recommend him!

(if go, please say 'hi' from Gabe...the long-haired American climber with back/shoulder problems Smile)
