Level 5 Sports Massage Therapist and Massage Tutor in Acton, West London
My Story – From Recovery to Helping Others
Hi, I’m Marcin, a Level 5 Sports Massage Therapist and professional Massage Tutor with over 15 years of experience. I understand how pain and restricted movement can affect your everyday life because I’ve experienced it myself.
In Spring 2002, at just 17, I was involved in a serious accident and faced the possibility of needing a wheelchair. During my rehabilitation, massage combining Eastern and Western approaches played an important role in my recovery. I eventually made a full recovery, and that experience inspired me to help others facing pain, injury and movement difficulties.
Today, it shapes the way I work with every client: I listen, assess and tailor each treatment to your individual needs.
Level 5 Sports Massage – More Than Just Massage
With an advanced ITEC Level 5 qualification in Sports Massage Therapy, I combine hands-on treatment with physical assessment and movement testing. Whether you’re experiencing back or neck pain, shoulder problems, sciatica-like symptoms, sports injuries or restricted mobility, my aim is to help you feel better and move more comfortably.
Depending on your needs, your treatment may include Sports Massage, Deep Tissue Massage, Trigger Point Therapy, Dry Needling, Acupuncture, Cupping and other manual therapy techniques.
Assess. Treat. Test & Retest. I don’t follow the same routine for everyone. Where appropriate, I assess your movement and range of motion before treatment, select suitable techniques and retest afterwards to evaluate changes in mobility, comfort and function.
You’ll also receive practical aftercare advice to help support your progress.
An Experienced Therapist Who Also Teaches Therapists
Alongside treating clients, I’m the Founder and Lead Tutor at Holistic Way Academy, where I teach accredited Level 3 Massage and Complementary Therapy courses. Combining teaching with daily clinical practice helps me continually develop my skills and bring both practical experience and professional knowledge to your treatment.
My approach is simple: understand your concerns, treat what we can, reassess your response and help you move forward with confidence. I welcome clients at ODNOVA Massage & Sports Therapy in Acton, West London, and surrounding areas.
My holistic approach ensures the most effective assistance for clients.
For those interested, I am also a tutor along with my wife Natalia at the “Holistic Way Academy,” offering professional, fully accredited courses in complementary therapies such as massage and bioenergy therapy.
Two Years Running - Prestige Awards Winner for ODNOVA Massage & Sports Therapy
I’m incredibly proud to have been recognised by the Prestige Awards for the second consecutive year, becoming a Multiple Year Winner in 2026 following my Holistic Massage Therapist of the Year 2025 award.
Receiving this recognition for a second year means a great deal to me. ODNOVA Massage & Sports Therapy has always been built around a simple principle: every client is different, and every treatment should reflect that.
Most of all, I’m grateful to every client who has trusted me with their treatment and supported ODNOVA Massage & Sports Therapy. Winning once was incredibly special. Being recognised for a second consecutive year makes it even more meaningful.
With love and gratitude,
Marcin, ODNOVA Massage & Sports Therapy
TESTIMONIALS
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦
I was recommended seeing Marcin by a friend, and it's the best recommendation I've had! Marcin was brilliant - he is highly knowledgeable and friendly. I felt at ease from the second he opened the door until the end of my session. He quickly diagnosed some issues I was experiencing just from how I stood. Marcin took time to understand the condition and also explained his treatment. Nothing was too much to ask. He continued to check in with me during the session to ensure I was okay. He had a good vibe and gave me exercises to carry on with. Outstanding service, highly recommended.

Marcin is amazing!! He is so nice, so knowledgeable and the massage treatments I received were really effective. He really listens to what you need, which I feel like not everyone does, and then tailors the treatment to suit you. I’ve been to so many different massage therapists over the years and he’s definitely one of the best and kindest as well 🙂

Marcin is wonderful!! The combination massage was amazing. I didn’t realize how tight my body was until the session was over. I very much enjoyed the attention to detail when adjusting various parts of the body and stretching or massaging based on what’s needed, and in a way that can actually help your pain points feel better. I highly recommend and will definitely be returning!

I had two massages with Marcin while staying nearby and he really alleviated my back pain. He also was generous in providing useful advice after the treatments. Can highly recommend him.

I had a serious back pain, could barely move my head and shoulders. After one hour session I was able to go back to work and move normally and after additional two all the pain disappeared. Marcin definitely knows his craft, plus he is super positive person. Highly recommend his services.

Marcin is a real professional, he has helped me many times with my back pain or just achy muscles which needed relaxation during busy life in London, I was lucky to live nearby. He also helped me in the emergency when I was pregnant and my sciatica pain stopped me from walking - I was brought to life again.I enjoyed different techniques he was using like the massage on the massage chair and then on the massage bed or using bamboo sticks. He does also feet massage which helps with detoxification. I highly recommend the treatment.

I have been suffering from sciactica. I have visited Marcin several times and now feeling much better. In addition, Marcin provides the massage which is holistic. He also helped me with the tightness in my upper back. His anti stress therapy (combination of chair and table during one treatment) is very effective. I am feeling much lighter now. Emotions that I kept are gone.

Marcin is an extremely professional sports massage therapist. I have been seeing him for a few months now. He is very thorough and will listen to his clients to get to know their problem and how to get to the bottom of it! I especially enjoy his deep tissue massage, as my injury requires more force to reach it when massaging. I highly recommend his services to anyone struggling with injuries or chronic pain/chronic inflammation. He is a very knowledgable and inspiring individual and offers holistic and comprehensive methods of dealing with the source of pain to heal it completely and for good. It is always a pleasure visiting Odnova Massage!
