Resilience Massage and Training

Worked his magic.

I went hoping to fix a localised back pain that wasn't going away for 3 weeks. Chris not just provided instant relief (and within few days it was gone completely), he also helped correcting other chronic postural issues.

My first experience of a Myotherapy massage and it was excellent. Chris approaches whatever ailments or aches & pains you bring to him with a precision far superior to your average masseur.

Combining trigger-point, dry needling and a couple of other techniques I have not had before there's not an obvious feeling anything's being "released" like typical deep tissue massage during the poking & prodding of the treatment itself but the end result in terms of difference in posture, body mobility and pain shows itself as he finishes each series of "magic touches"

Absolute bargain at what he charges, I'll definitely make visiting again part of my weekend away in Melbourne routine. The very interesting fact the location also doubles as a Wing Chung Kung Fu dojo immediately makes it very obvious Chris and his cohorts know a thing or two about body mechanics and sports injuries.

If I could rate higher than 5 stars I would. Thank you muchly Mr Gauntlett, you'll see my face again for sure. Keep up the amazing work.

Chris is an incredibly skilled professional.
I had come to him with a tension in my ovary area that I had been experiencing for a few years but did not have much knowledge as to how to relieve it. Thinking my issue was slightly too "niche" I was unsure of who to see but was recommended to Chris by a trusted health professional. Chris was quickly able to assess the issue and gently apply treatment that relieved the tension immediately. He was also able to explain what was happening internally and how it may have been linked to other tensions (which he also relieved). What's even better is that he assured me the effect of the treatment would be long lasting. I am so grateful to have found Chris and will be recommending him to all my friends and family!

I have had issues with my sacrum from running and Chris has been the only therapist to actually create any long lasting relief which has resulted in a happy body and a more effective running technique. I now include regular treatments with Chris for preventative adjustments. I highly recommend resilience if you have a recurring injury that is just not resolving with other treatments.

Chris was highly recommended to me by my osteo, when my osteo moved overseas. Chris has been nothing short of brilliant. I’ve got a chronic neck injury (many years of pain). I was really nervous about changing treatment providers. Thankfully the transition was super smooth. Chris has not only helped me maintain the improvements I had made with the osteo I was seeing previously, but also build on them. I highly recommend him as a visceral therapist (I’ve seen many osteos, physios, chiropractors etc… Chris is def one of the best healthcare providers that I’ve seen).

Chris is an incredible professional - extremely decent and excellent at what he does! I went to Chris a few weeks ago for some muscular pain in my left shoulder and I didn't expect much other than some temporary relief. However, within a few minutes of meeting Chris, I divulged that I had been living with excruciating lower back ache and pain in my neck and shoulders for over 2 years. Chris very gently introduced me to the idea of visceral manipulation and 1 session later, I was pain free. This continued until I saw him again for yet another session and I never imagined that I could actually be relatively pain free within 2 sessions. I am so incredibly impressed with his knowledge of the human body and its interconnectedness but also at his ability to diligently assess and treat pain in a manner that does not require you to keep going back to him. I am very grateful to Chris for his help and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone. Thank you Chris for helping me enjoy a better quality of life once again. Fairy

As someone who’s had various injuries and chronic pains over the years, I’ve seen many different physical therapists: I can say Chris is a top notch practitioner who has many tools at his disposal. Though I’ve only seen him a few times so far, I can say his treatments are thorough, effective, and surprisingly gentle. I’m happy to have found him in time to prep for a shoulder surgery and to have him on side for recovery and rebuilding strength. Does it all!

Such a great space to work out! Loads of equipment and perfect for personalised PT sessions. I see Alice who is absolutely fantastic to work with and has helped me a lot with my health journey. Chris, the owner is so welcoming and friendly. I really look forward to my sessions each week, Definitely recommend!

I have trained with Alice at Resilience Massage and Training since December 2020. It has been an excellent experience. Alice is extremely knowledgeable and tailors the sessions to my individual goals. Alice is an asset to the gym and I highly recommend training with her!

I've never felt more in tune with my body than I do now after working with Chris for a few short months. I started seeing Chris with an injury another trusted practitioner was helping me address without success. Chris helped me understand WHY my body was injured, but more importantly guided me in what I felt was the most obvious, clear and direct way to help my body recover. I've learnt so much about myself since meeting Chris and I cant recommend seeing him enough. Do yourself the favour! He might just change your life. Keep strong!

Chris' knowledge is second to none. I came to see him for an issue where I had seen numerous practitioners in the weeks prior. Chris was able to isolate the problem and resolve it so I was able to go hiking again. His calm persona, attentiveness and expertise ensures a positive experience.

Great expertise in all things movement, muscle, bone and injury. Lots of knowledge and background in Chinese medicine. Definitely recommend.

I’ve been training with Chris Gauntlett in boxing for the past 2 to 3 months: In that time Chris with enthusiasm and a genuine love for boxing, in particular the history of boxing and the old style of counter boxing, enjoys training and teaching what he knows: He certainly understands the training required to improve technique and the skills needed to lift a persons standard and abilities to a higher level on every occasion during each boxing session: My father was a boxer and a judo champion and I would certainly recommend any one interested in training in boxing to approach and train with Chris Gauntlett: Thanks Chris

The boxing classes are fantastic for both beginner and experienced boxers. Chris always takes a considered approach with a focus on technique and conditioning. The small class sizes also allow for challenging but fun session.

Chris is one of the very few people in Australia and the world who have the knowledge and ability to use wing chun as it was intended: A brutal no frills and intelligent street fighting system.
I have studied wing chun intensely for the past 10 years. For the last 3 years Chris has trained me. He has been a proponent of wing chun for over 20 years.
Chris has a great deal of fighting experience and knowledge of human physiology.
He has dedicated his life to the fighting arts and sought the knowledge of great exponants over the years. Strength and conditioning, hand eye coodination, psychology of fighting, western boxing, mui tai, knife drills, tai chi and internal energy are some of the skills he passes on to his students.
The goal is infinate but
since training with Chris i have began to understand martial arts in a much deeper way and my fighting abilities improve every day.

Fantastic local boxing gym with a great atmosphere! Best boxing gym/classes I have been to in a long time

Chris is a fantastic trainer and coach. His Tuesday and Thursday boxing classes have been fantastic for myself and thoroughly enjoyable. The classes are tailored for people at any level that are looking to improve their health and physical goals, and couldn't recommend his services anymore.

The Wing Chun classes are well priced and well worth it thanks to small class sizes and Chris’ ability to teach and explain. I’m a beginner and feel I get a lot from each session.

Chris is a very patient and extremely knowledgeable trainer and instructor. I have been involved in various sports as a participant, as an instructor, and as an examiner for over 35 years. I consider myself well versed on health and training topics. I am constantly pleasantly surprised by the breadth and depth of Chris’s understanding of both traditional and modern training techniques. He has an easygoing manner in which he uplift’s understanding and provides insight. I have no hesitation in recommending him to beginners and experienced trainers and martial artists alike. Great job Chris!

I've been training with Chris for almost a year and my boxing technique and overall fitness have improved greatly. He's a patient teacher who gives the right tips at the right time to help me get to the next level. Highly recommended.
