STRENGTH TRAINING / STRENGTH 4 LIFE
Many of us neglect our strength as we age, to our detriment. Strength maintains our mobility and independence;
* Standing out of a chair
* Walking up and down the stairs
* Playing with grandchildren
* Able to work and engage in hobbies, etc
STRENGTH 4 LIFE isn't about big muscles or scarily heavy weights, it's about being strong enough to live a quality and fulfilled life!
PERSONAL TRAINING
Personal Training (PT) can be 1:1 or in small groups (like the Rebel Runners Running Club seen here)
This is NOT for 'body beautiful' / 'beach-ready' / 'killer-abs' clickbait nonsense. This is for real-world people wanting to take back control of their life via;
* weight loss
* strength gains
* improved fitness
SPECIFIC SERVICES - PHYSIO
Long-term Back Pain
There is nothing fun about back pain. I've been successfully managing my own back pain for some 30 years now, so you'll get an empathetic ear from me!
Chances are you've already been popped, cracked, massaged and stretched, with various scans failing to identify the cause of your ongoing pain. It's frustrating isn't it?
My thorough assessment will identify all of the 'hidden clues' that will pave the way for successful rehabilitation
£70 for the initial 50-minute assessment
Post-op Rehabilitation
Early and effective Post-op Rehabilitation is absolutely critical in getting the most out of your surgery.
Surgery alone DOES NOT restore strength, balance, fitness, normal movement patterns or confidence.
I have all of the necessary rehab equipment and knowledge, to help you get back to normality and beyond!
£70 for the initial 50-minute assessment
Traumatic Injury Triage
Ruptured ligaments & tendons, torn cartilage and bone fractures, are just some of the injuries I have identified over the years, following a traumatic onset - falling, twisting the knee, pushing a caravan, being struck by a dog, all real-life cases!
Between 2008 - 2017, I was the lead therapist for the local Orthopaedic Triage Service, so if you want to know if further investigations and scans are needed, I can help you.
£70 for a thorough 50-minute Physiotherapy triage assessment.
Elderly Physio At Home
For some elderly individuals, getting into the clinic is simply not possible, so let me COME TO YOU!
Catering for the following;
* Mobility
* Balance & Falls
* Post-op Rehab
Lower Limb Arthritis Assessment
Arthritis is a common and yet poorly understood presentation, which DOES NOT mean you are destined for surgery, if managed well.
Keeping the joint's muscles STRONG is hugely beneficial for the arthritic joint.
If you have or suspect you have Hip or Knee arthritis, then allow me to assess and advise you on how best to manage the situation.
£70 for a 50-minute thorough assessment
Lower / Upper Limb Pain
For all other lower & upper limb related problems, this is the assessment you need.
Please bear in mind that I do not possess a 'magic couch' which I can pop you on and fix you in one session whilst you just lay there...I tried this for many years. It offers short-term 'feel good' results at best!
Exercise-rehabilitation based upon a thorough assessment is what makes for meaningful changes.

'Health is your true Wealth'
We take our bodies for granted, until they can no longer do the things we need them to do.
Having a Physio as your Personal trainer means I can help guide you through the process of getting your body back, especially in the presence of joint or soft-tissue problems.
* One on one sessions in my rehab-gym
* Just me, you and lots of fun exercise
* You might even get to punch me!
* No other distractions
Oh and please don't worry, getting fit doesn't mean endless time spent on a treadmill...we can do better than that!
If you're feeling a little lost, then together we'll find a way
When we're de-conditioned due to weight gain, weakness and lack of fitness, knowing how and where to start can seem futile and a lost cause.
Together we'll figure it out and re-discover the wonder of a healthy mind & body.
It's about living your life, not sculpting a six-pack!
I've never had a six-pack, so if that's what you're after, then I haven't got a clue!
If however you're looking to improve your Health & Fitness for a better quality of life, then step this way!
