I went to see Freddy at Activ Fitness when I had problems with my shoulder and no kidding he has magic hands and is very strong. I haven't had a massage like that in a long time. He's also a great guy with perfect English and he's professional, his rates are very reasonable at the moment. I'll be going back for sure

Hi and welcome to the forum. Am so glad to hear the masage went well and your shoulder is better. If you have any more problems call Freddy and he'll advise you on what to do. I hope you're enjoying Zurich, take care

Just realised this might not make sense. You will receive 6 massages in total

Freddy has quite a few spaces next week and nearly booked up the week after, this is due to his clients booking him fortnightly!

This offer is only available at Activ Fitness in Dietikon, he doesn't have control over the prices at the other locations, sorry for those who pm'd / emailed

Oh good, I was planning on booking another massage next week and maybe i'll treat myself to the 6 massages for the price of 5 offer, bargain. I'll need them for the ski season

Just want to know how much the price would be for sessions in Baden. Thank you.

Freddy works at the Novum Spa, Limmathof Hotel in Baden http://www.limmathof.ch/ every Tuesday and Thursday evening and some weekends. They have an offer on at the moment until the end of September which is a massage for 25mins 65 F and 55mins 85 F. Let me know if I can be anymore help

Just a quick update, Freddy will be finishing work at the Novum Spa in the Limmathof Hotel, Baden, also every Friday in Luzern and at Activ Fitness in Dietikon from December (so still time to book).

As you can imagine having 4 jobs was quite a challenge even though he loves his jobs he had to start cutting back to just 2.

He will however be increasing his job at Aarau http://www.az-massage.ch/index.php to 80% and working 2 days a week at the new Zurich Airport Fitness in December http://www.airport-fitness.ch/ENG/wella.htm

Let me know if you have any queries

Hi Jules,

I just found out my new insurance company pays towards massages. Is Freddy registered?

Cheers

Just had an email from Julie saying that her profile has been deleted by accident and she is currently waiting for it to be reinstated.

She has asked me to copy and paste her answer on here, so here it is:

Freddy is a member of ASCA and his number is: Y282049 under the name Fridolin Elmer at Praxis für medizinische massagen, Aarau if you want to check it on the website here is the address: www.asca.ch/partners.

He is also a member of EMR and EGK but I don't have those details to hand but if you need them just PM/email me.

The link didn't work here it is again:
http://www.asca.ch/Partners.aspx

Hi,

I'm going to close this thread as it's got too complicated with all the changes to Freddy's jobs.

Just a final update, he's finished his job in Baden and will finish in Luzern (every Friday and is 80% full) and Dietikon (every Tues, not many free appts left) at the end of Dec.

He will then be taking on extra days in Aarau and he started a new job at the beginning of Dec at new Zurich airport fitness (every Thurs & Sun).

Please see the new and less complicated thread:
Massage available in Aarau & Zurich Airport

Thanks for your support and feedback it's much appriecated.

Mods if you read this can you please close for me, cheers!

Hi,

We have now left Switzerland, if a mod reads this then please close this thread.

Thanks,

Julie
