Testimonials from Clients
I was thrilled to attend a vocal massage session with Gareth. He maintained a professional, relaxing and therapeutic approach throughout. I have always experienced vocal fatigue after long periods of rehearsing or performing, but after the session with Gareth, I left feeling like my vocal cords had been relieved of the tension and fatigue that they were under from the long rehearsal the night before. I also found that I was more aware of my posture and how to continue to improve this. I look forward to the next one!

I recently had a vocal massage with Gareth. It was amazing and I felt so released afterwards. I mentioned I had neck and jaw tensions and that's what Gareth focussed on. He made the experience really comfortable and calm, it was just what I needed! I would highly recommend.
