Paul has worked as part of the Guernsey Muratti 2012 support team recently, and quite honestly has worked wonders.

The squad had a big game for GFC less than 72 hours before the Muratti final in Jersey, which went to extra time and meant that we had a lot of very tired legs and fatigued bodies on our hands with only a couple of days to prepare for Jersey.

Paul worked incredibly hard over the course of the critical 48 hour period leading up to the Muratti, providing intensive massage therapy for 10 of the players. His professionalism ensured I could focus on the football side of the preparation, safe in the knowledge that Paul, working with the team's Head Physiotherapist, Mike Thomas, was providing the very best therapy to the players to ensure they were prepared for the biggest game in the Channel Islands' football calendar.

Our boys turned in a fantastic performance to beat Jersey 2-0 in the big game - due in no small part to their recovery from Friday's game. Thanks Paul!

Paul has recently become a valued member of the Guernsey Football Club backroom staff. His pre/post game massages are extremely helpful in getting us as players ready for the strains of competition, especially as we near the end of a long and hard fought campaign. I see Paul on a weekly basis away from GFC and can now appreciate how important it is as a sportsman to get regular massage therapy to help prepare, relax and recover the muscles. Paul offers a friendly and comfortable service that I'm sure I would use even if I wasn't playing sport.

I have been to Paul to sort out my neck and shoulder and was expecting a hard massage that I wasn't looking forward to..... however what i received was a relaxing, calming massage which took the stress from my neck and shoulder. I can now move my head freely and my neck is no longer painful. Thanks Paul.

I have been going to see Paul at Equilibrium once a month for the past 4 months and I always leave feeling way better than when I arrived. Without fail he takes his time and works his magic to de-stress not only the body but also the mind and is a fantastic massage therapist, whether you want to chatter away or simple be still and quiet. I always leave feeling so much more relaxed, muscles feel softer and less tight and mind calmer, not buzzing!
Would recommend him to anyone any time.

After sustaining a broken ankle through a sporting activity in Spring 2011, Paul at Equilibrium has provided massage treatments that have benefitted both the affected joint and muscles as well as the muscles that have been working extra hard to compensate for the injury. Following a series of appointments I have felt a big improvement and have started to return back to sporting fitness.

Paul’s knowledge, understanding and treatments have been superb and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Equilibrium to family and friends.

A very different type of massage to what you get from a beautician. Deeply relaxing and has sorted out a back problem that neither the physio nor chiropractor were able to sort completely.

I would highly recommend Paul of Equilibrium because for the last 5 years or so I have suffered from restrictive movement of my arm causing difficulty with dressing and reaching top shelves at the supermarket and at home. At the age of 51 I felt this was only going to get worse and believed I was heading for an operation which I was reluctant to do. I read an offer with Equilibrium through my work of having 4 treatments for the price of 3 and decided to treat myself to see if some improvement could be achieved. After 4 treatments I was amazed at the amount of movement I had so continued for further sessions. I am absolutely delighted as I now have full movement of my shoulder/arm and can now dress without any pain and reach the shelves I had trouble with and all thanks to Paul's work. I never had a massage before and would highly recommend it - an hour of bliss.

This was a truly relaxing massage. Paul managed to put me at ease, despite the fact I was poorly. It was quite a different style massage to that I am used to, but was refreshingly different. I would recommend this service, especially as he looked at my individual needs. Good job well done!

After years of being pushed and pulled, crunched and stretched I have found that a relaxing massage from Paul has had far more affect than any other therapy. I feel relaxed, pain free, re energised and far less stressed after about 45 mins. Well worth the money and thank you Paul.

Ali and I visited Paul at Equilibrium recently. I am a novice as regards to massage but have suffered with back issues for many years. I was not sure what to expect but was extremely impressed all round. Paul makes you feel very welcome and spends time understanding your needs. Not only was it most enjoyable but I have noticed and continue to notice material benefits. I am already booked in for my next session. It has worked for Ali and I. I would recommend you give Paul a try.

I heard Equilibrium was doing a special offer, so I booked an appointment. It just so happened that I put my back out shortly after booking the appointment. Paul was very welcoming when first met him and I felt totally at ease. He is very professional and knowledgeable at what he does. As I had a bad back and was in a lot of pain he tailored the massage to suit me. It was very different to other massages I have had, but I felt totally relaxed and left feeling like I was on cloud nine. I went back several times with the same back problem, and found my back to ease off. Paul was also able to tell me what the problem was with my back, more so than the doctors. Paul has used different techniques for each appointment, working on the areas that need the most relieve! I now make regular appointments to see Paul as I know I’ll leave feeling ten times better.

I had heard of Equilibrium through the grapevine recently and wanted to try it out. My back, shoulders and neck haved been bothering me for quite a while now and I wanted to treat myself to a massage for relaxation as well as a massage method which would assist in reducing my back pains. Paul's Equilibrium seemed to tick all the boxes. I was a bit anxious not knowing what to expect but Paul is very welcoming and laid back throughout the whole session. I felt that the initial consultation opened up a greater understanding of my back and problems for Paul, giving him the opportunity to tailor the massage to suit me. I have never received an initial run through of what to expect from the massage, you normally just jump straight onto the bed and receive a standard massage. Yes they are nice from time to time, but I walked away feeling totally relaxed and refreshed. I enjoyed it so much that I have booked another session with Paul!

I wanted to try out this therapist and was very pleased. Parking was easy, the treatment room is welcoming and spotless. Paul explains how he wants to structure your treatment so there are no surprises, makes an assessment of your situation after some questions, and then proposes a treatment, walking you through the process. The results are very relaxing and calming. Highly recommended.

I have been suffering with lower back and neck and shoulder problems for longer than I care to remember. I have had local Osteopaths, Chiropractors and deep tissue masseurs work on me which only provided temporary relief. I was referred to Paul by my brother-in-law. Paul is the only professional that I have seen that has provided instant and continued relief. I now have more movement in back and shoulders than for a long time. At the start of the year it was a struggle to get my shirt and coat on; now I don't think about it. Paul instantly puts you at ease and the best thing is that his treatment isn't invasive and doesn't hurt!

Paul is a great massage therapist. He spoke with me before the treatment to discuss any areas on tension that needed addressing. His treatment room is lovely and warm and the heated table cover is an added luxury. The massage itself was relaxing and relived the tension in my shoulders. Great treatment.

I visited Paul for the first time a few days ago. My initial apprehension soon disappeared as did the stress I have long experienced in my neck and shoulders once the treatment commenced. Paul has a way of making his clents feel very relaxed.

After having been for a few massages at other places i was a little apprehensive as i find sometimes the masseuse can be too hard. Shouldn't have worried at all and as Paul explained they shouldn't be like that. I liked the fact he took time to talk to me at the beginning and find out exactly what kind of massage i needed. I've had a shoulder injury for a while and this has resulted in stiffness, Paul worked a lot on this and i have to say that it felt easier almost straight after the massage and the next day felt the best it's been for a while. I will definitely book again in the near future and i highly recommend him.

I have not been given any solution for my injury from my doctor or physio over the past 6 weeks. My injury stopped me from exercising, and I suffered sciatica, numbness of the foot and general pain in the whole of my right leg. I have been to see Paul for one back massage, even through the pain was in my Gluteus minimus, and day 2 after the massage I have full movement back in my leg, and no pain. Paul seems to know where to start which may not be where the actual pain and trigger points are, and for this I would recommend anyone who is sat at home frustrated and in pain to go and have a session. I now look forward to my next few sessions. What a breath of fresh air Paul, you gave me hope and already I have felt immediate relief !

I have been visiting Paul for several months now and he also comes into my work for seated sessions in the lunch hour. I suffer from some lower back pain and almost always have tight shoulders and upper back. Paul has helped immensely and although he seems to find the right spot, there is no pain which I had always thought was necessary for a massage to be effective. I always feel very relaxed after the treatment and am impressed by Paul's knowledge and enthusiasm for his subject, and the care he takes to taylor the treatment to your specific requirements. I would be happy to recommend Paul to anyone - even those who are a bit apprehensive of having a massage.

I first saw Paul in Jan '11 when I was stressed out due to a hectic personal and professional life. He is a lovely, professional guy who is passionate and knowledgeable about his work and wants to help people. He works in a pleasant, cosy room in his home with a calming atmosphere. My first session started with a thorough consultation to identify my requirements and any problem areas, explain what to expect and answer any questions. The massage itself was glorious and the treatment, scent of lavender oil, relaxing music and warmth of the room left me so utterly, blissfully chilled out that I nearly fell asleep! Afterwards, Paul left the room and gave me as much time as I needed to collect myself, then returned with a glass of water to explain any issues he had identified and treated. I went home on a cloud and slept really well, and he texted to check up on me the next morning. I used a gift voucher for my first session - I have already been back once and can't wait for the next time!

I teach a lot of exercise classes and my back can often feel overworked. I can honestly say my massage with Paul was the best I have ever had. I didn't realise just how tight my back had been until he had released all the knots. It felt fantastic! I particularly liked the feedback he gave me afterwards and the way he contacted me the next day to see how I was. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

Paul is very approachable and makes you feel at ease quickly. The room he performs his magic in, is always warm and I find myself instantly relaxed. He knows his stuff and is always professional but friendly at the same time. I am very glad that Paul was recommended to me, he makes huge improvements to both my mental and my physical state, which after just an hour a month is quite impressive. I always feel great after my appointments and look forward to the next. Paul keeps in touch between sessions to check how I am feeling. All round the best in his field and I would and do recommend him to anyone in need.

Having a desk job and being a keen sportsman results in my back/shoulders needing regular attention. Paul is highly professional, talking you through every part of his therapy and is able to pinpoint problem areas with apparent ease. Just one or two sessions is often enough for full recovery. Highly recommended.

I have been regularly visiting Paul twice a month since August '10. Having never pampered myself before I was a litle nervous until his very professional and thorough pre-massage consultation put me totally at ease before starting the massage. Each visit is well planned and tailored to treat various specific parts of the body, or aimed at muscle relaxation by treating areas with different techniques if the muscles have not responded to the original method of treatment.
Having built up 25 years of stress I have gradually felt my neck & back muscles relax more each month as the treatment progresses. I would highly recommend Paul to anybody considering having a massage and who is nervous at the thought of the experience or in any doubt whether to proceed, because of his professional and friendly massage side manner.
