Meet the Team
I have extensive running experience covering distances up to 100km and I appreciate that there is always more to learn. Vicky’s expert advice has enabled me to really get to grips with the science behind how I should be fuelling my training/ races. I have a much better understanding of what foods and supplements I should be fuelling with and it has had a tangible impact on my running.
Michael
Vicky has provided both interesting and very informative nutritional information. I feel I’ve learnt a lot and her personalised plan has transformed the way I look at training, pre-race, race-day and post-race fuelling. I was way off the mark!
Gilly
Working with Marie was insightful into helping me to prioritise my goals around work, training, and family. No matter how much I trained physically, I wasn’t getting the most from it. I learned to understand the key areas that were limiting me, and to be able to focus clearly on better planning for training and preparation for running events.
BL
It was an amazing experience. People who work there are very qualified and I will definitely recommend M20 Health and Performance to everyone who wants to get a gait analysis, running injury screening and VO2 max/lactate threshold testing.
KK
Had my lactate thresholds and VO2 tested - Charlie was great!
TS
Fantastic analysis and very enjoyable process, Adam was very helpful guiding me through the whole process.
AM
Adam was amazing and everything very professional.
AM
Fantastic test, very informative. Highly recommended.
BL
I booked a VO2max test with Adam. The booking process was easy and communication was great beforehand. At the test, Adam took time to explain the process and the equipment, etc. He communicated what was happening at each stage of the test and gave feedback on how things were looking. He then took extra time after to discuss the findings and just have a general discussion around fitness and running, my goals, etc. I'd highly recommend Adam for a VO2max test!
AA
Sessions have been great with Ryan. My shoulder injury has improved massively since working with Ryan. Would highly recommend to anyone struggling with injury.
TS
Ryan looked in great detail at my strengths and weaknesses in order to achieve a targeted approach at improving my running! I'm excited to work with Ryan and hope to see incredible results!
BS
Great session and insight that I couldn’t replicate myself. Can feel and see the progress which keeps me going!
AC
So, I've gone from considering retiring from squash due to two years of knee issues to surviving three hard matches in a 24-hour period! This is all down to Ryan at M20 Health and Performance. His expertise has taken me from gentle stretching/rehab movements, to more impactful strength, onto more explosive movements jumps and hops. His high tech testing, coupled with his rehab experience and skill, is continuing to support me and to exactly monitor my progress or any possible concerns. Outstanding - many thanks indeed.
RA
Adam has really helped improve my strength and given me the confidence to push myself further than I thought possible after surgery on my spine. The sessions are always varied and allow for gym and home workouts. I would highly recommend Adam as a strength and conditioning coach.
KH
Adam is a fantastic trainer, very knowledgeable and professional. I suffered two fractured vertebrae and have always been scared to exercise/do any weights because of the injury. Adam listened to my concerns and tailored exercises to my ability. Building my confidence and allowing me to push myself without causing injury. I’m really looking forward to the next session!
KH
Ryan was terrific! Thanks for all the guidance - I feel a lot more confident now going into my race!
DH
Another great session with Ryan - he sorted out my aching muscles which was much needed. As always, he was so friendly and welcoming. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!
KM
As always, a great trip to M20 Health and Performance. Ryan is so welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable. He takes an interest in my training programme and makes sure I’m in the best condition possible for it!
KM
Ryan was fabulous as always, sorting out issues with both my Achilles and my hips. I’d recommend him to anyone!
KM
Very impressed with the treatment I received, I walked out feeling on top of the world after suffering with a stiff neck and back. Many thanks.
SS
An excellent service - I came away with a better understanding of my injuries, how to prevent them going forward, and feeling much more recovered after the sports massage.
AE
I have sports massages from Ryan on a regular basis which are invaluable to me. Ryan keeps me functioning, is very thorough in his approach and is extremely professional. I highly recommend M20 Health and Performance.
AO
Fabulous guys and a wonderful location. Their knowledge and the technology they have available to assess and help with rehabilitation is second to none! I would highly recommend and have already booked my next appointment.
KL
Fantastic place. Knowledgeable professionals.
GR
Thanks so much for the excellent sports massage. Very pleasant, safe and supportive environment. Will call in again soon.
SC
Excellent advice and sports massage - my tennis elbow is already feeling much better. Thank you.
SB
Great service, super massage, and professional throughout. Really easy to book. Everyone at M20 Health and Performance is really friendly and their professional knowledge is excellent.
CM
I read about M20 Health and Performance online and the reviews were really positive. I have been to see them with a Plantar Fasciitis problem. I have now seen Ryan on two occasions and I am really impressed with his knowledge and treatment which is already reaping benefits after trying other treatments for five months. I have had Shockwave therapy and been taught how to stretch. I can highly recommend M20 Health and Performance.
TC
First session of Shockwave therapy and my elbow feels so much better already. Thanks.
LG
The main thing I was happy about was how prepared I felt for the race! Honestly, I never imagined that I would ever be able to do an Ironman. I remember joining the Tri Club 3 years ago and thinking it was just mental and genuinely not understanding how people did it - I was like, I will never be that person as I am not that fit/good. The fact I have run a marathon and an Ironman in the space of 2.5 months is incredible and I absolutely would not have gotten anywhere close to that goal without your support and coaching so thank you!
CM
A massive thank you to you because honestly I think this is the first event I've done where I felt fully prepped and trained at the start line, I had no doubt I'd get to the end it was just a question of time. I felt I could give it everything I had and walk away feeling really proud of myself. Definitely cried happy tears at the finish line because I honestly couldn't believe I had run a marathon!!!
CM
Adam - I just wanted to say a massive thank you for all of your help and support you have given me so far. I have been reflecting on the past 6 months of training and I have noticed a lot of progress and couldn’t have done it without your help! 1: I have gone from not being able to run a mile without knee pain to working my way through an ultra marathon with no pain. 2: I have gone from not being able to swim more than 25m in a pool, to comfortably swimming 1500m+ in open water. 3: I feel a lot more confident on my road bike and I am starting to build up the mileage per week. Appreciate you always being there to motivate and push me , especially when I go through busy weeks with uni and work. Your support has definitely kept me going! Thanks so much.
BA
My experience with M20 Health and Performance has been awesome. Adam is very knowledgeable and passionate about helping his clients. Their facilities are state of the art. Adam completed a detailed body composition and VO2max analysis for me, permitting me to gain a clear understanding of myself. We have used the results to inform my exercise and nutrition plans. I have now booked in for quarterly sessions, to allow me to see the progress I am making and to set goals for the future. Once the preserve of elite athletes, I now see this service as the way forward for mere mortals like me.
SO
Adam was clear and his knowledge is unrivalled. Helpful and offered great advice. Booked again.
SH (EH)
Great experience at my appointment, Adam was super informative and everything was clearly explained, I won't hesitate to book in again.
HB
Really interesting morning. Adam is very knowledgeable and very good at explaining complex scientific information. Recommended.
SH
The session was professional, friendly and informative. I learnt a lot and would definitely recommend.
JC
M20 Health and Performance was a perfect solution in finding out my resting metabolic rate so I can plan my meals/trainig program to efficiently see results in my weight loss journey. Adam was very helpful on the day and prior to the appointment. Adam explained how the test would work and then sat down after with me to discuss the results and talk about why I wanted the test and what I can do to optimise results, and sent me the results via email. Overall I was very pleased with the experience and I am planning to go back to M20 Health and Performance or test myself again and see if my results have improved.
GH
Excellent in terms of knowledge, skills and aptitudes. Adam made me feel very comfortable and spent time explaining the findings as well as analysing and helping me to plan my training going forward. I look forward to my re-test. Thank you Adam.
SG

SG
Got my baseline calorie expenditure measured with Adam and genuinely learned a lot about what my needs are, and why calorie restriction alone may not be the way to lose weight if it takes me below the baseline. We worked out that with some tweaks to my activity levels, I could indeed cut calories while remaining above my baseline, and why this would be better. He took the time to go through everything and was very thorough. Worth the travel and the fee. Great help Adam, thank you!
CF
Excellent service! I had the resting metabolic rate test. I found it very informative and I will recommend and use M20 Health and Performance again in the future.
AM
Incredibly knowledgeable care. An injury that I had come to think of as chronic, and that has left many a physio scratching their heads in bafflement, was immediately diagnosed and I’m getting treatment and an exercise programme that are helping. I had more or less given up hope and now after just three weeks of treatment I’m able to run again. I also have an improved understanding of the mechanics lying behind my injury and why the treatments and exercises are helping the way they are. I am so happy to have found M20 Health and Performance!
VM
I have been to see Ryan numerous occasions after an arm injury stopped me playing tennis. Working with Ryan I am now pain free, and have a strength and conditioning exercise program working on the issues that had caused the injury in the first place. Excellent service - I could not recommend him enough!

LH
Saw Ryan for a dodgy hamstring and sports massage. Was very polite, kind, reassuring and professional. Listened to my concerns and provided excellent advice and exercises to combat it. Thank you Ryan!!
PM
I have been seeing Ryan for the last 8 months. Great service! He is very knowledgeable and shows genuine interest in improving my well-being. He always goes above and beyond. Excellent facilities and a great range of treatments.
KS
Ryan was excellent from the first appointment. He took the proper time to give me a thorough diagnosis then he worked on a strength and conditioning programme to rehab my injury. I have been to a number of physios before but this was definitely the most thorough and knowledgeable treatment I have had.

After a year of terrible shoulder pain and multiple physiotherapy treatments with the no success, I tried out M20 Health and Performance, I'm very pleased I did. They are absolutely brilliant and I'm pain-free for the first time in a year.
DG
Fantastic injury assessment, incredibly insightful evaluation, and recovery plan and support from Ryan. Would highly recommend!
JA
Ryan has helped my teenager with a couple of injuries and his approach has been age-appropriate, explaining how to best complete their recovery in a meaningful way. His professional yet approachable style has made rehab and physio something to 'enjoy' rather than endure. Great results too! Thanks M20 Health and Performance.
CP
Great, from start to finish! Went at first following hamstring pain, nervous that I might need to stop running, which is my favourite stress-buster. And I’m not young any more (68). Was so heartened by Ryan’s positive approach and good advice that I feel encouraged to strive for actual improvement in strength and resilience! Following his exercises, pain has completely disappeared and I feel optimistic for the future. Thanks so much!
SC
Ryan was great! Really thorough session and explained everything well to me. Would highly recommend!
AG
Ryan provided an exceptional service and was very knowledgeable. His professionalism gave me the confidence in knowing I'm in good hands.
MR
Ryan listens to your issues and addresses them with clear instructions and understanding. Always reassuring.
NT
Felt really positive coming away from the session. Very knowledgeable, professional and friendly.
BP
My husband has been seeing Ryan for the past few years for rehabilitation following a serious stroke and heart attack. He finds him very professional, approachable, knowledgeable and he is proving to be a major factor in his ongoing recovery. We have no hesitation in recommending him highly.
JK
Ryan, excellent therapist, gives you an explanation of injury in layman's terms and how to recover from it using the tailored exercises.
GB
By far the best physio I've used!
BA-C
Excellent assessment. Really knowledgeable and thorough attention to detail. Explained everything clearly. Definitely brilliant value!
SH
Brilliant assessment, issues diagnosed quickly and Adam communicated forward plans really clearly. Literally felt better walking out! Would highly recommend.
CG
Adam was excellent. Knowledgeable and a clear communicator. I feel like I am well on the way to getting my knee sorted out.
ZM
Experienced and thoughtful physio input - rare and very much appreciated.
GS
Super friendly, extremely knowledgeable and wonderfully thorough. Adam is always really keen to ensure you understand the mechanics behind what is going on to build sustainable plans. My go-to for anything physio/sports injury related.
DT
Good assessment and explanation of my condition and the exercises I should undertake to enable me to alleviate my symptoms. App provides an essential reminder of the correct positions to adopt when completing the remedial exercises.
JA
Great session with Adam. Exercises were explained properly. Huge difference when compared to NHS physiotherapy sessions.
JT
Adam was excellent. Took the time to understand the full picture relating to my teen daughter's injury and did some great diagnostic work before coming up with a plan of treatment. Couldn’t be happier. Very professional and hopefully she’s on the way to feeling better. Thanks Adam.
CP
Extensive and detailed clinical examination and physical assessment. Fantastic service!
PC
Great appointment again. Quickly identified the issue and clear plan for recovery was given! Top work!
CG
Thorough and full diagnostic examination with comprehensive explanation of issues and exercise plan.
PC
Fantastic! Extremely thorough with great advice.
BM
Adam is great! He’s addressed the route of my recurring injury and we’ve developed a program to run alongside my current training schedule to prevent any further discomfort. I’m feeling miles better even in the early stages.
AQ
Adam’s physio support and advice has been fantastic. With Adam’s support, I have been able to start running again after a knee injury. I would highly recommend M20 Health and Performance.
AD
Adam was very thorough in his examination of my knee post-operation. I went to Adam as he is so experienced and thorough, my previous physio just wasn't a patch on him. I have far more confidence in my recovery now than I did before. Thanks Adam!
JP
I was very impressed. Adam put me at ease straight away. Completed a full gait analysis and recognised that my feet were not the issue it was my hips and quads! I’ve been given a strength and stretch program to complete with videos available through PhysiApp. Went for a 5-miler and already feel a difference in my running after being shown the right exercises.
GR
Just wanted to feedback after Outlaw and my bike leg. Although it was a tough course surface-wise, I took twenty minutes off my bike from Lakesman and didn't finish it desperate to get off! The position felt great and so much more responsive and comfortable. Thanks for the bike fit and helping me enjoy longer distance again.
KW
Adam at M20 Health and Performance is an absolute pleasure to work with. What this guy doesn't know about the body and anything scientific, isn't worth knowing. Over the weekend I had a posture examination followed by a bike fit. This enabled Adam to work out any imbalances that I may have and incorporate this into my bike position, making sure I achieve the most efficient and power position on the bike. I highly recommend Adam and the services he offers! So much so, I'm going back in a few weeks for an indepth threshold and VO2max test, and continue to work with him throughout my triathlon career. Top guy!
TM
Really great physio. After a tough week of lots of tennis, he managed to help with my groin strain and tape it to allow me to play the rest of the week - 10/10!
SN
My husband has been seeing Ryan for the past few years for rehabilitation following a serious stroke and heart attack. He finds him very professional, approachable, knowledgeable and he is proving to be a major factor in his ongoing recovery. We have no hesitation in recommending him highly.
JK
There is a very helpful app that you can access to remind you of what exercises he has recommended. I always feel so much better after treatment, which reduces the need for pain relieving tablets. I can highly recommend M20 Health.
