"Dear Martin,

By teaching me healthy habits you've added years to my life, by teaching me mindfulness you've added life to my years.

Thank you
Akis"

I'm grateful to all my clients who have kindly shared their experience.

"I met Martin in Dec 2017 at a 'silent' retreat - where at times actions and silent spoke louder that words! Martin's raw food diet during the retreat caught my attention as he looked vibrant and focused.  After the retreat Martin's words and sharing of knowledge on the topics of raw food, living food, vegan diet... were showing a thorough understanding of the subject. I appreciated Martin's openness when talking about his reasons for following a raw food diet, his generous sharing of knowledge, his open mindedness to different approaches and above all I enjoyed  Martin's quality of not imposing beliefs and give advice. He's sharing comes from his direct experience of the topic - from a place in him which loves life and wish to embrace it as fully as possible. I'm thankful for his enthusiastic and determined-self, generous and open sharing of knowledge. Coralie (Remedial massage and Aquatic bodywork practitioner)" Coralie Biseuil (Google Business review)
"I am incredibly happy to have discovered a talented bodywork therapist in Martin. Not only do I admire his intuitive energy and abundant knowledge but my body melts as his hands glide through the muscle tension with a fragrant peppermint oil, leaving me in a state of bliss for days. Saying that, however, I do wish he could massage me every single day!" ​Christian Thom ​​(Facebook review)​
"I've been seeing Martin regularly for several months now. My initial reason for seeking his services was severely compromised mobility in my shoulders. Once I met Martin, his caring attitude and the resonance we had made me feel at ease and as if we've known each other for years. Over a course of multiple session, he designed and started implementing a series of mobilisation and assisted stretching exercises, which have greatly improved my shoulders' range of motion. Everyday activities, like washing and putting a jacket on, are now nearly effortless. When I'm not in the mood for a session that requires a lot of work on my part, Martin treats me to a profoundly relaxing and enjoyable deep tissue massage. His knowledge of spirituality and overall health make him a truly holistic therapist and a friend whom I enjoy seeing even outside of our sessions." Leigh Barss (Google Business review)
"Martin is an experienced masseur and wellbeing therapist with the touch of an angel, to be able to receive his balm like massage is a blissful experience. I thoroughly recommend him to people who suffer from bodily aches and pain or for anyone who would like a deep relaxation experience or break from the stressful rush of everyday life. The most healing experience!" Manel Guell ​(Google Business review)
"Having been a client of Martin Petkov's for over one year I can highly recommend Martin as a therapist. Martin has qualities which make for an exceptional practitioner - his knowledge of physiology & of the anatomy are outstanding and when coupled with his innate intuition along with his sensitivity to the human condition create a powerful combination." Mark Sutton (Google Business review)
"Out of the tens of masseurs I have experienced over the years, Martin stands out as one of the absolute best. His technique is superbe, his touch outstandingly generous and deeply caring, and his understanding of the human body guaranteed to bring wellness, healing and to restore energy levels. Do not look any further for a professional therapist who will solve complex physical ailments, balance and revitalise the spirit and leave you feeling like a new person every time!" Thierry Alexandre (Google Business review)
"I have had a shoulder problem which didn't go away for quite a substantial time but thanks to Martin with his skills I have been relieved after just a few treatments. Now I go regularly for treatments with Martin not only for any problems but also just for relaxation and maintaining a healthy muscle structure." Christian Huber (Google Business review)

"I strongly recommend Martin to anyone seeking relief from stiff muscles. Martin has been exceptionally skilful in identifying and addressing the tension of my neck muscles. I tried in the past and others professional didn't seem to go to the root of the problem. On the contrary, Martin has been able to work on the key points that are causing me some pain, giving me immediate relief and the confidence that I am now on the right path for a long term solution to my muscle tension." ​Michelle Sisto ​​(Facebook review)
"I met Martin when we started our journey together last year on an ITEC Diploma in Sports Massage Therapy Level 3 and then onto our BTEC Clinical Sports and Remedial Massage Course Level 5, during which I know he has done exceptionally well. A dutiful student and helpful colleague.

Martin throughout has continued to be very knowledgeable and incredibly capable. He is patient, meticulous and always maintains an exemplary standard to client care." Rebecca Massie (Google Business review)
"The talent and knowledge of Martin is unbelievable he has such great skill in his hands and works wonders with his massages.He has given me tuition on how to massage my psoas muscle to give me relief from my back issues.
I would highly recommend Martin and suggest you go book an appointment with him to relieve any bodywork ailments you might!!!!" Kevin Whitear (Facebook review)
"Restorative and healing massage, Martin has an amazing touch that eases any muscle pain." Keirion Caroll (Google Business review)
 "I have known Martin from more than 15 years. He is a hard worker. I am glad that he managed to maintain his concentration and ambition throughout the years and stepped on a moral path in life. I decided to go to him for a massage. He approached me with extreme calmness. Listened to every injury I spoke about in my “verbal body presentation” and took notes. He calculated the number of sessions needed and we began the therapy. I was stunned by the depth of his knowledge. He knows the movement of the muscle, the way they bend, the way they should be treated according to the problem and he even knows their Latin names. He works very hygienic – clean table, fresh sheets, washed hands, nice breath, special oil. He asks if the temperature is alright; if you need anything; is the posture comfortable and etc. Being a highly intellectual person he is ready to talk to you about variety of subjects during the massage and/or after or before it. At the end of the day what I appreciate most is the fact that he is a mindful, happy person with great sense of humor, who is always ready to help and learn." Philip Donchev (Google Business review)
"Wow, wow, wow! 

​Personal results while working with Martin: 
09.2016 - 113kg
04.2017 - 95kg (including stable muscle growth)

As I was struggling to develop a more healthy lifestyle for me, I found myself clueless on topics such as what constitutes a healthy lifestyle. As I was considering being healthy as equal to struggling with a demanding diet and strenuous exercise, it was even harder for me to break out of a cycle of poor health.

Then I, out of nowhere, read about Martin. This man not only broke my stereotypical lens by showing me that healthy lifestyle is not demanding at all, on the contrary - it is rewarding and pleasurable, but also he guided me through how to live satisfied with my health and body. Even more, I asked for explanations on the scientific principles and logic underlying most of his advice and he managed to deliver thorough explanations in an understandable way while considering my lack of knowledge in the field. 

Overall, I highly recommend Martin to anybody who wishes to implement a positive change in their live. There might be things about you that you may wish to change but cannot find the way to do it, or there might be things about you that you are not aware of that might require change - either way, Martin is an experienced professional, that can help you get the needed passion and motivation to live a better life!" Nikolay Petrov (Facebook review)
"I had my first Reike experience about 15 years ago with a friend of mine who was practicing it at that time. I was interested about it, but it took some time to have my first Reike session. I had some emotional issues and I felt a huge “amount” of energy inside me which needed to be worked out or dissipated, in other words I needed emotional balance. I found Martin searching online, and I had a very good experience with him. After my first session, I could understand what was going on and it made things easier to work out. With the Reike treatment I reduced the tension and anxiety I was feeling and I found the balance I was looking for. I extremely recommend Martin; he is very professional, friendly and has a very good energy coming from him. I am really grateful!" Andre Ferreira (Google Business review)
"Martin was a great choice for my first experience with energy healing and I am so glad I got the opportunity. He is genuine, kind and will make you feel comfortable and at ease. Days after our session i was still letting everything "level off" since my appointment was great and i felt a strong powercharge developing. After an initial increase in fatigue for the remainder of the day (day of session), I started to feel the clouds part and a new sense of clarity and energy emerged into the following ones. Excited about it and will return to Marti to help along the way!" Georgi Nikolov (Google Business review)​
"I had the privilege of meeting Martin when we started our first job after graduating from university. Martin’s practice is the culmination of the years he has dedicated to spiritual development and holistic approaches to good health. He shares his knowledge of health, fitness and mindfulness in understandable and practical ways. During my first massage session, I was taken aback by how natural and elegant it was. I’ve had several sessions since then and every time I feel more calm, focused and aware. 
​
I've also participated in personal training sessions with Martin. He motivated me to push myself to limits I would not have reached otherwise. If you are curious I highly recommend a session at Martin’s practice. It is a truly enriching experience and you have to find out for yourself." Akis Kefalas (Google Business review)
"Participating in massage and training sessions is enriching and relaxing experience. Martin is a truly dedicated fitness, body health and massage practitioner who is also knowledgeable in the areas of zen budism and meditation. A highly valuable element of Martin's practice is his inexhaustible enthusiasm in explaining the nature of the training and massage practices, enriching the discussion with scientific and academic research details. A great experience which provokes the curious mind to search and discover." Stefan Stefanov (Google Business review)​
