Services

At Ultimate Fitness York, we deliver a range of therapies that work in synergy to help you feel better, move better, and live better.

Deep Tissue & Sports Massage
This technique focuses on the deepest layers of muscle tissue, fascia, and tendons. It is highly effective in reducing chronic tension and promoting recovery. Deep Tissue Massage is backed by clinical studies which show benefits such as reduced stress, improved hormone balance, and enhanced relaxation. This therapy also releases serotonin and oxytocin, aiding mood and sleep.

Shockwave Therapy (ESWT)
A non-invasive treatment used across orthopaedics, physiotherapy, and sports medicine. Shockwave Therapy has delivered exceptional results in cases of long-term or chronic pain, especially when other treatments have failed. It is particularly helpful when surgery seems the only remaining option.

Kinesthetic Taping (RockTape Certified)
Used to support healing and reduce physical stress, kinesthetic taping involves applying a specialised tape that mimics the properties of human skin. Although widely used by athletes, this therapy can benefit anyone experiencing muscle strain, joint instability, or chronic pain. We are fully RockTape certified, ensuring every application is clinically effective.

Additional Information

Our therapies address a wide range of conditions, including:

• Muscle injuries and dysfunction

• Chronic pain

• Migraines and vertigo

• Repetitive strain injuries

• Fatigue and sleep disorders

We combine deep tissue work with techniques like lymph drainage, light therapy, and therapeutic taping to ensure a holistic recovery process. Clients consistently report life-changing results, with many experiencing relief after just a few sessions.

One client with fibromyalgia shared:

“Shaun took the time to research my condition, came up with a tailored plan, and always brings new advice. He’s helped my shoulder realignment, eased my pain, and I’ve recommended him to friends.”

Another described him as:

“A miracle worker! His understanding of the human body is incredible, and after a few sessions, my pains were completely gone.”
