“Absolutely brilliant! Being an older lady living with chronic pain, I was hoping this would help ease some of my pain, I’m amazed at how much better I feel, I actually feel like a new woman! I have more freedom of movement and am more energised than I have been in years! Gavin is a lovely, friendly and caring man, he was very respectful and very aware of my limitations. I highly recommend Black Panther Massage!”

“After a car accident, I was sent for physio. The physio only seemed interested in my range of movement, less so about the pain I still experienced. Having been to Black Panther Massage twice, my pain has eased significantly and I have even more pain free movement than after numerous sessions with the physio. Thank you so much Gavin, highly recommended.”

I've been coming here regularly for the last year and a half, would highly recommend BPM! I always feel so much better afterwards. I had to book a last minute appointment the other day as I'd really hurt my back - I couldn't walk before my appointment but after seeing Gavin, I could walk again. Very good at what he does - highly recommend.

Went to Gavin with neck/back/leg pain from sitting at a desk all day, he knew exactly what he needed to do from what I was describing and after an hour session I have no pain whatsoever and feel no tightness at all. He made me feel really relaxed and comfortable, checking that I was ok with the pressure in areas that he could tell were a little tighter and helped me understand what areas could be causing pain elsewhere. 100% will go back again!

Amazing place and secret gem. Gavin is a really lovely person and has the ability to make you feel relaxed. Just the right amount of relaxation and chill also pressure. Will be booking again. Thank you so much. 10/10.

Like Bob the Builder...Gavin can fix it! I have a desk job which comes with the usual territory tense shoulders, pain in the lower back, muscle tension. After trying float therapy, wasting money on these fancy massages at hotel spas etc and other remedies (you name it I've tried it!) all seemed to only be for short term benefit, I thought let's give a sports massage ago and wanted to try to find someone who was a family run business and I was recommended Gavin and he did not disappoint! Gavin was really friendly and was very attentive with checking I was okay with the level of pressure he gave during the massage. I was unfamiliar with sports massages and the benefits but I left feeling like he had removed knots i didn't even knew existed!! Highly recommend Gavin for not just people who are into sports but for us office girlies too!

My second time went in with muscles basically locked up. Gav got right into it. Knew exactly what I needed. We had a conversation before he started and agreed the best way to go. He really did go above and beyond to help me
What an absolute blessing it is for us to have this business in pontefract thank you 🙏- Andy, May 2026

I've had several massages in my life, but I've never truly felt so well cared for and safe as I did in Gav's hands. He truly made the pain go away, and my expectations were met 100%. It wasn't a relaxing massage, but it was exactly what I was looking for —helpful. I'll definitely be back for another massage and recommend him to everyone because he knows what he's doing and how to ease the pain.
