One Body Reviews 5

Alex is very passionate about his career. This is evident in his eagerness for his clients to benefit from his therapy and also by his expertise. It is clear from his level of knowledge he has worked hard at his profession and has a wealth of experience.

I'm 28 and having played competitive sports and run regularly my whole life, I went through a 6 month period where any prolonged running was causing me pain on the outside of my thigh and knee that prevented me doing any meaningful cardiovascular exercise. As a medical doctor, I self-diagnosed myself with an IT-band strain and tried some stretches, foam-rolling and pain-killers for quite a while but got no relief.

On just one video assessment with Alex he quickly identified the other areas in which my issues were originating - causing my posture to compensate putting strain on my right leg/knee resulting in the IT-band strain. Alex went through a stretching regimen with me on the video call for me to do at home myself (he also sent through emails with images explaining the stretches which was handy to reference).

After just 2 further video calls and some additional stretching exercises I am pain free. Within a couple of weeks I have been able to go for 10Km runs on hard ground without so much as a twinge of discomfort -- including hill sprints which would have previously immediately exacerbated my pain.

I highly recommend anyone with persisting MSK issues or other physiotherapy needs to get in touch with Alex. It is important to do the stretches as he advises - I got in to the routine of doing the stretches each day after coming home from work and saw daily progress in my range of motion and reduced discomfort with each stretch/exercise.

Alex Barrie.. well what can I say he's like a stretching professional, he knows exactly the science behind all your aches and pains. My experience has been a very challenging one, with having Multiple Sclerosis I have pain always and by following simple instructions set by Alex I was able to progress and ease my pain gradually. He listens to you whenever you have an issue and will resolve and twerk depending on your issue. Alex should been given more credit where is due, because he does know what he's talking about and really has transformed my core stability/alignment/balance/ and general outlook on stretching. Thank you so much Alex!

A whole body experience.
Very professional and tailored to your needs.
Alex kept me fit during lock-down, he's so knowledgeable.

Alex is professional, knowledgeable and personable in his approach. He asks appropriate questions and actively listens to your issue before explaining what could be the cause before suggesting how it can be treated. Massages can be an awkward experience, but Alex makes you feel immediately at ease. I always feel so much better after seeing him, he really does know what he is doing!

Honestly Alex at one body is a magician I always walk out of there feeling amazing he is very skilled and professional and a lovely man. I workout a lot and usually have a lot of shoulder tension from and injury and back and hip issues. I see him once a month usually and I couldn’t recommend him enough! Thank you so much one body!
