Fresh back from my hols and I've won 2 new awards!! Makes all the hard work feel even more appreciated.


The first award is from Three Best Rated. For the 6th year in a row, I am in their top 3 Best Massage Therapists in Gateshead. I'm actually rated number 1 with a score of 115 out of 120.


To quote from their email to me: "Our business analyst team is impressed by the consistent high-quality service you provide in your area of business. They have thoroughly evaluated and updated your business based on our rigorous 50-Point Inspection."


2025 Award for Best Massage Therapist in Gateshead

The 50-point inspection process identifies the top 3 local businesses in each of their categories. The inspection covers my business history, what services I offer, how experienced I am at those services, my qualifications, whether the services I claim to offer are actually services I provide, whether my pricing is fair or not. They also look at my online presence - is my website/social media up-to-date, how good are my reviews and are they real (yes, by the way - they are 100% real and all 5* Google reviews!), how quickly I reply to enquiries, etc.




The second award is from the Northern Enterprise Awards 2025. From their email to me:


"Following our merit-led research and evaluation process Body and Sole Therapy has been recognised as the deserving recipient of: Best Holistic Therapy Practice 2025 - North East"


This covers the whole of the north east, not just Gateshead, so I'm well pleased with that.


Unfortunately, I don't get to display a logo for this one without paying £825 but I appreciate winning the award.



I'd like to thank all my clients for continuing to support my local small business. The fact that you keep coming back to me and leaving such amazing reviews means so much to me.


Thank you


Chris xx
