Daniel M (May 2022)

Absolutely terrific. Karl is an experienced and friendly masseur who will work with you to target areas for remedial massage, or complete a relaxing general massage, depending on your needs. He is friendly and very chatty, which does help where deep tissue massages are concerned! Extremely good at what he does, I would recommend (and have recommended!) him to anyone looking for a quality massage.

Sam Smith (Dec 2021)

I have been a client of Karls for for 2+ years, throughout my time as a client of Karls I have seen the benefits of regular remedial massages together with meditation and breath-work which Karl has introduced me to.
I have always been curious about breath-work and all I can say give it a go and experience yourself what its all about, in todays world our minds travel a million miles an hour, but we don`t stop to take time and take a deep breath, I highly recommend Karls breath work sessions you will truly experience something unique.

One of the best remedial massage therapists I’ve been too. Karl is amazing he has magic hands. Very professional and definitely a safe space where you feel comfortable as Karl works his magic. My chest and shoulders felt so tight before seeing Karl and after two sessions my chest is more open and not so tight. I highly recommend him to anyone!

Marcus July 2020

I have been seeing Karl for well over a year now and cannot recommend his services enough. On many occasions I have hobbled into his studio bent over as I suffer from scoliosis and 45 mins later he has straightened me up and somehow made all the pain go away. Such a relaxing happy space and the heated massage table it a great addition.

Xzavia (March 2020)

Would highly recommend Karl, assertive, prompt , friendly and professional service provided.

Have suffered lower back nerve & siatic pain, due to injury for over 13 months, causing stiffness &
lack of mobility, had tried a different remedial massage therapist and physio therapist with no relief.
One visit with Karl, 80% improvement in one session, so to maintain and improve more over time will be brilliant and he’s also registered with work cover.

( A.R Jan 2020)

When I went to Karl Lester, I took a few appointment. Today I can feel the difference! I’m Totally happy with him ,I’m feeling 90% better then before ,I give heaps of thanks to Karl because of him, he really makes me happy through his treatment

Maikle. Jan 2020

A friend referred Karl to me after having ongoing back pain due to a bulged disc from a gym injury, After regular sessions with Karl, I felt more mobility and flexibility, His knowledge of his profession is very comforting which shows in every session which helps me prevent any furthers injuries, hands of magic!

Charlie

I was referred to Karl by a friend as I was experiencing constant pain and loss of mobility. Karl is thorough and explains why and how muscle dysfunction is occurring, after only a couple of sessions I felt a drastic improvement, highly recommend!

Kyle

I came across Karl after seeing a physiotherapists, chiropractors, Osteos and numerous myotherapists and none of them could address the issue in my back like Karl did in 1 session. It was a problem bearing on me for over 6 months and honestly felt improvement after one visit. 6 months on i see Karl fortnightly and feel in the best condition I’ve ever been in. His earnest commitment reflects in the way he treats and follows up.

Andy

Karl has been coming to our house to massage myself and my husband every 3 weeks for over 3 months now. I had breast surgery and Karl positioned me on his table so that there was no pressure on my top area. I want to thank Karl for his kindness and professional attitude towards my needs and he has also helped my husband overcome his complaints. We believe that regular massages helps your overall health and well being. Please support Karl.

I saw Karl today for the first time about my shoulder, he was so informative and helpful about it! I’ve left feeling so much better after he worked on it and so positive! I’ve already recommended him to my family and I’ll do so with all my friends. 5 stars for sure! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Reannan

Ultimate professional, informative and exceptionally good at what he does. He took the time to ask for information that would assist him with helping my upper muscular issues. Never have I had this happen before and after only 1 session I have more general movement in my neck than I’ve had in I don’t know how long. I felt incredibly comfortable with his techniques and highly recommend him! 
Looking forward to my now weekly appointments.

Lori

I went to see Karl a couple of days ago as I suffer from plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinitis and wry neck. 
Karl was quite knowable with my conditions and had used cupping and massage techniques to help with releasing the pain that I have been suffering from. 
I would recommend going to see Karl if you have similar issues or even just for a relaxing remedial massage. 
It’s also a plus that he is a registered private health care provider.
