“Amazing – probably the best massage in the Chamonix Valley. Highly recommend!”

“Ruth, that was amazing, i have never experienced such care before – absolutely awesome. It’s feeling so much better already. That is such a skill – honestly amazing. thank you so so much.” – Catriona

“A unique feel for massage therapy, a sort of “6th sense” that allows her to pin-point immediately where a patient’s ache comes from and what technique will work best to alleviate pain, relax sore muscles, or simply help recuperate after a long ski day.”

“Strong hands, a calm spirit, and is in tune with her clients’ bodies’ needs.”

“An excellent massage therapist with deep knowledge of massage techniques and has helped me many times to speed up recovery. She is very skilled and always fills me with great confidence.”

“A fantastic masseuse who has a very intuitive ability as well as a highly trained knowledge of massage. Her massages are amazing after a day of sports from cycling to skiing and she also did some incredible pregnancy massages for me which helped hugely during the last few months of pregnancy.”

“I see Ruth for massage regularly and I always leave feeling so much lighter. She has a unique ability to read my body and give the treatment I need. I’ve had so much body work over the years, and Ruth is one of the best!” – Stephanie Howe

“Thanks so much for the help and massage over the last 2 months. Been a great help in so many ways. Very excited and ready to go now!” – Carl

“I felt so great the day after the treatment, you really have a phenomenal gift. The last couple of days I’ve put in some strong miles, and I am really grateful that you helped me loosen things up! Thanks so much.” – Claire

“We both made it to the end of the race, and as you predicted, other than a very tight right glute for all the steep bits, my injury stayed quiet! Thanks for all your help!” – Karen & Alain

“I have been having trouble sleeping and very tight after a tiny paragliding accident that I didn’t tend to. Ruth immediately put me at ease and worked on so many spots I had been neglecting. (Also have tendinitis from typing work) I really couldn’t recommend this enough – for sports recovery or just general self TLC. Cant wait for my next appointment!” – Kerry Charlotte

“Best sports massage ever! Ruth is fantastic and is truly in tune with what your body needs. The right amount of relaxation and pain all at the same time!” – Antonia Gawel

“I know Ruth personally but really recommend her. She has sorted out several problems for me and even made it possible for me to go on a cycle trip after a back spasm. She is also very knowledgeable, having studied intensively at a very high level, and she is very professional. I recommend her 100% and even have bought gift-certificate massages from her, for friends of mine. I believe she is also very well trained in pregnancy massage and equine (horse) massage, too.” – Louise Heffelfinger Peacocke

“I arrived in Chamonix with a terrible pain in my upper back and neck which left me unable to move, let alone ski for the majority of the week. I found Ruth online and requested an appointment. She came out to my accommodation for a same day appointment and honestly gave me the best sports massage I’ve ever had! She was thorough and knowledgeable, taking the time to fully understand the issue before starting the treatment. She not only alleviated the majority of the pain and restrictions but I actually managed a day of skiing after seeing her. She really did leave me a thousands times better than she found me and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to friends and family. Thanks Ruth, you really are a 10/10!” – Elissa Johnson

“After long days in the event world, going to see Ruth is exactly what we need! We can’t recommend you enough 🙂 See you soon !” – Haute Wedding

“Fantastique ! Ruth arrive à dénouer les tensions les plus profondes. Véritable massage thérapeutique, je recommande les yeux fermés.” – Mary Plusquellec

“Very impressed with Ruth’s massage. Felt the tension just melt away in my neck and upper body, would highly recommend her. This lovely lady knows her stuff. Excellent!!” – Eleni Kyriakou

“I’ve gotten a lot of sports massage around the world and Ruth’s is still the best by miles! The technique she uses is really great and for me who likes a hard massage she also masters this to perfection without it being uncomfortable. …and then she is just one lovely, cool and an awesome person! My best recommendation goes to Ruth!” – Anders Kartik

“Ruth has a touch of gold! I would highly recommend [her] for anyone looking for either a restorative sports massage or a relaxing wind down.” – Susannah Lovatt

“Ruth knows her stuff and you’re in good hands with her! My go-to sports massage in Chamonix without question! “– Jeri Chua

“Hands down the best massage I ever had in my life. And this comes from for a thai person living in Bangkok who have a massage once a week. Ruth worked her magic and got my tight muscle after a long flight ready for my UTMB CCC race. The only regret I had is I didn’t get a chance to have Ruth worked her magic again after the race as we had to leave the day after the race. Ruth came to our chalet prepared with all equipments including towels and massage oil (organic coconut or CBD oil) so it is super convenient.” – Pylin Jane Sanguanpiyapand

“Amazing sports massage from a very thoughtful and knowledgable practitioner. I was in a lot of pain before Ruth worked her magic. 10/10 would definitely recommend!” – Elissa Bensen

“I saw Ruth at least three or four times when I was doing a trail running camp in Chamonix & it was truly awesome. I have been to SO many massage therapists & I must say, Ruth certainly rates in the highest category. Like someone else here said, she really “ironed out my muscles”. It was a deep, strong & much rejuvenating massage, good for anyone but perhaps extra, I think, for someone performing demanding sports. I would absolutely see Ruth if i came back to Chamonix & I strongly recommend her services! ” – Catarina Lilliehook

“I’ve participated in numerous ultra-marathons, including the TDS (119km) and CCC (101km) of the UTMB, and Ruth’s work has been an essential part of both training and recovery. Her service and skills are exceptional, and she’s always accommodating of my hectic work and training schedule. For any athlete (or even anyone who sits at a desk all day long), I highly recommend Ruth.” – Seth Thomas Pietras

“Whenever I head to Chamonix the first thing I do after booking my flights is book myself a massage with Ruth. She is amazing. She really tunes into what your body needs and makes such a difference to my recovery after playing in the outdoors. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Just wish she was based in England!” – Clare Newman

“Ruth is a fabulous sports massage therapist. I visit whenever in Chamonix. She tailors the message precisely and has helped me…whether it’s fixing sore trail running legs or helping with work stress and the need for deep relaxation. I highly recommend.” – Amanda Nelson

“We were in Chamonix for the UTMB and were lucky enough to be recommended Equilibrium Massage by a friend who had used them before. There are so many massage therapists about but it is rare to find someone special – Ruth was amazing, she has a special skill of identifying and fixing problems – truly blessed! Fixed all of our issues before our races and sorted us out with a recovery massage also – as a result we had 9 out of 9 finish the race you will not want to leave Chamonix” – Rob Demirel

“Ruth was super responsive to scheduling a massage with me, and even better, she came to the chalet where I was staying. One of the best and most therapeutic massages I’ve ever had. Definitely work a massage by Ruth into your stay in Chamonix!” – Lindsay Kafka

“Ruth was an exceptional help the days before and after my race in Chamonix! She definitely was a great resource when I needed to ensure I was taken care of. I approve of her in the highest regard!” – Matt Schaar

“The most extraordinary massage I’ve ever had. Weeks of tension in my neck and shoulders vanished in an hour and my posture was opened up – I came away feeling taller, literally and figuratively too! Can’t recommend Ruth enough – she’d been recommended to me by friends and I wasn’t disappointed. Can’t wait for my next visit with her.” – Sue Roberts

“Ruth gave me a fantastic massage that really ironed out the aches and pains that had been building up since I became a mother around 10 weeks ago – she knows just which areas need working on if you are carrying/feeding/leaning over a newborn all day! Be aware this is deep/sports massage and not for the faint-hearted! I’ll definitely be back for more.” – Anna Kirkman

“My massage with Ruth Martin was one of the best I’ve experienced – I was so impressed by the way she handled my body, using special techniques to target any tight areas. I walked away feeling loose and energised. Thank you so much Ruth.” – Millie Walton

“Looking for an amazing massage in the Alps? There’s no-one better than Ruth. Intuitive and knowledgeable, I always leave feeling a million times better – whether it’s for a specific muscle ache or just general wellbeing. Thanks Ruth!” – Isobel Rostron

“Ruth has a fantastic talent for finding the root cause of pain. One session and she cured a long term tennis elbow problem. Just wish she lived closer to me!” – Dulcerstone

“Very efficient and needed massage after climbing and mountaineering. I will most certainly visit Ruth again next time.” – Benjamin Lundstrom

“Always sorts out our aches and pains after a long day on the slopes or the trails. Nobody better!” – Nidski
