Mesut Olcas Sports Therapy & Personal Training

Chris Oakley Retired Lawyer I am probably one of Mesuts oldest clients, both in terms of age and because of the more than 15 years he has been working with me, firstly as a masseur and then for the last 5 years as my personal trainer, physiotherapist, masseur and acupuncturist. His great talents lie in his breadth of knowledge about the human body, how to build its strength and flexibility through training and also how to effectively resolve physical injuries and pain of many different types. Unlike many modern physiotherapists, who are afraid to touch another person, he is extremely hands on with his massage, physical manipulation and acupuncture which is how he brings resolution. He has also given me the knowledge to treat myself when I am struck with problems like piriformis syndrome which can start very quickly and be extremely painful. I would never have thought that I would, in my mid-60s, be able to easily lift more than my own weight and go on 60-mile bike rides, sometimes with Mesut, and not suffer afterwards! It has been a great and fun adventure, working with and knowing him, through all these years. He has become a good friend.

Following months of rotator cuff pain in my left shoulder, I was recommended Mesut by a friend at the gym. A shoulder problem had been hindering my progress in the gym for many months and I had become demoralised and generally unhappy - not only was it impacting negatively in my day to day life but also disrupting my sleep at night. The one hour treatment Mesut delivered turned out to be (in my opinion) nothing short of a miracle. Using massage and acupuncture, he eliminated 99% of my shoulder discomfort. It was quite simply the best 80 Ive ever spent and I have been recommending Mesut to others ever since. Training with Mesut brings out the best in me too. His experience, knowledge and cheerful demeanour all combine to help deliver fun sessions that push me to achieve things I never thought I could.

I have been training with Mesut for longer than 2 years. Firstly, he managed to fix my mid-back problems by combining manual therapy and a rehab fitness program. As a result, I started to become stronger than ever before. My mobility improved and the fitness regimen became more fun. Mesut is more experienced than any PT I have met so far and I feel he offered me more than anyone else before. I would definitely and highly recommend him.

Mesut is in a class of his own as he is a highly skilled trainer as well as an excellent sports therapist. As a personal trainer, Mesut tailors a programme for each of his clients and remains entirely focussed on each client's unique development requirements. Importantly, he is supportive and yet firm and he achieves results. The guy is a consummate professional!

I spent the past 3-4 years suffering from chronic upper back / neck pain, much of it work related (laptop / posture, incorrect weight training etc) and having spent a small fortune on PTs, chiropractors and physiotherapists, to no avail, I was starting to accept the grim reality of it all. After hearing so many great reviews and recommendations from close friends, I made the decision to visit Mesut for a one-off treatment session - worth a shot. Mesut took the time to sit down and discuss my history covering all my gripes and pains, and with a few quick posture assessments I was quickly reassured my condition was very typical and easy to correct. Now, the take home point being...I've been told this countless times before!! I wasn't going to hold my breath, but by the time my one hour was up I quickly realized there was some hope in sight. The key differentiator is the fact that Mesut not only offers treatment but also PT with a focus on mobilization, posture and alignment. Alongside the soft tissue treatment sessions, Mesut introduced me to the core fundamentals of CrossFit which, given time, the exercises and training involved have not only improved my condition but also enabled me to accomplish some superb fitness/strength goals, and in such a short amount of time. It's rare you get someone so passionate about your wellbeing and educated to a level where they can provide a well balanced holistic approach to your training needs. 10/10, I'll endorse any day.
