Testimonials
"Herman has treated me for approximately six years, providing general as well as pre- and post-competition treatments. As a member of the Royal Air Force, participating in a wide variety of sports including fencing, horse riding and martial arts, I need to maintain a good level of fitness (something he understands, having military experience himself).
The most notable skill that Herman possesses is the ability to treat the whole body, not just the surface symptoms – understanding, for example, that pain in my back was caused by tight muscles in my legs. He also looks to understand the causes of such injuries and provide general health advice and exercise to prevent their recurrence. His continued quest for knowledge to expand his already considerable experience means that he is able to treat athletes competing in a wide range of sports, something invaluable to someone in my position. He is always willing to spend as long as is needed, often working late into the evening, to ensure everyone is treated. I have never hesitated to sing Herman’s praises to any individual and as recently elected RAF Fencing Union Ladies Team Captain, I shall continue to do so to the ladies who make up the RAF Team."

"Over the past year without the help of Herman and his therapies I would not have been able to compete at an international level. He kept me in the best physical condition pre, post and during the racing season. After three weeks of treatment from Herman I was able to compete in the European Semi Final in France, which otherwise I would have missed. Herman has also helped me with continued support and advice on training programmes and injury prevention techniques, through the closed season, so I was ready for the re-start of the season."

"As a past British Fencing Team Manager for Cadet and Junior World Championships I have known Herman for many years and specifically worked with him at three World Championship competitions (South Bend USA 2000, Gdansk Poland 2001 and Antalia Turkey 2002).
His treatments were very effective and he was never afraid to refer on cases where he had concerns about long-term injury. I never had cause to question his judgements on these matters."

"As an athlete I first met Herman at the World Junior Fencing Championships in April 2000, where he worked hard for many hours each day to support our large team. It was clear that passion for his work, appreciation he received from his athletes and benefits he saw or heard from us on the piste kept him going."
