Testimonials

James MartinI have been exposed to many of the worlds great coaches through my own profession, and Matthew is right up there among the best of them. I have got massive benefits from his nutrition coaching (and his fantastic book) to date and there is nothing, absolutely nothing, that feels better than looking great and feeling great. Matthew holds me accountable (most important) in a caring and professional way and I am so grateful to have him as my coach.

I have come to Matthew numerous times for Ki-Energy treatments. These (acupressure) treatments are powerful and life enhancing, but the greatest gift that comes with them is the positive energy he ‘injects’ into every cell of my body. For his commitment and consistency paired with true skill and wisdom he has become my first contact for guidance and physical healing. With his versatile and colourful knowledge in all areas of life he certainly is also a reliable and trusted personal adviser to me. Matt gets to the point that matters without detours or short cuts, just clear and simple – striking simple!

After one treatment of Ki therapy with Matthew I was relieved of stabbing back pain, irregular heart rhythm (Etopic), constant migraines and the subsequent medication for each. After a second session I found energy levels increase to a previously forgotten intensity and the desire to become more and more active was undeniably compelling. Cravings for sugar, caffeine, and oily foods diminished so weight loss and better health came naturally and easily. With subsequent treatments energy levels and a sense of well being increased exponentially.

Pip Sides - PhotographerMatthew was the key note speaker at the opening of my Dublin Gallery in Dec 06. He held the crowd spell bound.  I cannot think of anyone who would be better to present a new product or idea  in front of a live audience.  The Nations Press and PR agencies were awaiting our arrival that evening.  In the moment before we were due to face the crowd I started to stress. Matthew took me aside and did some on the spot NLP coaching with me.

I went from being weak at the knees to a Warrior!  We stole the show! I cannot emphasize enough Matthews skill and ability to bring the inner warrior out of  any individual.  Hemmingway once said that courage is being able to maintain grace under pressure.  Matthew Armstrong is the definition of Courage personified and has an amazing ability to help others be the same.

As a skeptic my first impression of Matt’s methods was cynical to say the least. However my psoriasis was breaking out at an alarming rate and I was stressed with life and work. So I decided to throw caution to the wind and contacted Matt for help. After only a single consultaion everything started to change. Three weeks later my psoriasis was clear over 90% of my body and life really started to flow. I am still a skeptic because I still don’t fully understand what happened or how it worked, only that it did. I fully encourage anybody and everybody who wants to make any improvement in their life to throw caution to the wind as I did. Thanks Matt”

I contacted Matthew because I found interviews challenging and was applying for a senior position in the hospital, which I desperately wanted.  There was stiff competition so I knew I had to be at my best.  I had a one and a half hour coaching session with Matthew and walked away with a real feel good factor, which I can only describe as an energised glow. This feeling stayed with me for a number of weeks afterwards.  Armed with my new state of mind and the influencing techniques that Matthew taught me, I had no pre nerves and remained calm and focused throughout the interview.  Needless to say I was hired for the position.

Paul McPhailMatthew has been my coach for 1½ years and since then through his influence, direction and friendship he has opened my eyes to many great opportunities and encouraged me to find my own way by listening to my heart.  He also helped me to improve my health, thought patterns and patience.  I would recommend him as a life coach, because of his sensitivity, understanding and that he really walks his talk.

Four months after starting Matthew’s program, I have shed two stone and am supremely confident of releasing the other 4 stone I need to. If you think two stone is not much in four months, then let me tell you I have shed two stone in far shorter periods many many times in my life before – and guess what – yes of course, it all went back on in the same period. I have never focused on releasing weight for this long in my life before so I am delighted it’s slow – I know it will work! If you were suffering from Anorexia or Bulimia, there would be a lot of help out there for you. Overeating is a different issue but no less an eating disorder – Thank God for people like Matthew. Like the aforementioned conditions, my eating disorder required help in mind and in body. What he doesn’t know about health and fitness for the mind, body and soul is not really worth knowing. Four months on I feel full of energy and vitality, and I am more eager than ever to get to the final target (doing it the way I have been i.e. without feeling I am “on a diet”). I cannot stress the fitness issue enough. I can run upstairs, I don’t groan when getting out of a chair and even the dodgy knees I thought I had have now miraculously healed themselves. I was in that old vicious circle, can’t exercise, too fat, can’t lose weight – what’s the point, may as well give up! Matthew taught me about twenty different weight loss hints and tips – all of which require just a simple habit forming exercise. Two simple examples are drinking two litres of water a day and chewing your food fifty times. If you think these two (of about twenty) tips are too silly or insignificant to bother with and will never work, then consider this: I have been fortunate to go on holiday twice since starting this program and have had countless “moment’s of truth” in the business environment where poor nutrition was all around me. My ambition is to create a new sustainable way of life whilst achieving my target weight and fitness level. I wanted my new healthy way of life to involve a few tapas and San Miguel’s in Spain and a few crusty hunks of French bread and Cheese in France. I managed to go on both holidays and not put on weight and quite frankly denied myself nothing. Break free now, anyone can do it!
Start working towards the new you today – believe me it feels fantastic and I am only a third of the way there. Once you decide you want to do it, you are half way there.”
