I'm in need of a good sports massage/physio in SW London (Preferably near Tooting), does anyone know one they can recommend?

Cheers.

I use one who's based in Twickenham if that's any good to you?

Chris Smith at Physiocentric, Wimbledon. Not used him myself but recommend on my cycling club forum also from there;

Bryan McCulloch - Pure Sports Medicine at Raynes Park. Not the cheapest though. I worked with him for three months after fracturing my knee cap. He is a cyclist who specialises in cycling injuries etc. which I think is important so as to target the rehab in order to get you back on your bike.

The sports injury clinic at Crystal Palace sports centre (now called Balance) is very good.

i wasn’t happy with the service I got at the sports physio in Clapham (can’t remember the name) but most of my cycling friends in london go to CP if they have a sports/cycling injury

Oliver at Chiltern chiropractic in sutton is a miracle worker

....because he can extract money from you without a recognised medical qualification?

OP what do you  actually need?  If its just a good massage, I wouldn't bother with a physio.

IMO physio for injury rehab, masseur for loosening off, helping prevent injury.

At the risk of starting a flame war. ..

I have no idea what qualifications Oliver has but he has fixed me  (and many of my customers who i have recommended him to) numerous times and I trust him 100%.

@FunckyDunc I just need deep tissue massage for my piriformis and also the side of my calf muscle has a trigger point/nodule that I guess I can get rid of with massage.

Another vote for Oliver at Chiltern http://thechilterncentre.co.uk/ medical in Sutton, worked wonders and sorted my long term hamstring issue for good.
