About
Me

I'd like to tell
you a bit about myself, I am married with two children.
I enjoy both playing sports and
watching sports. I have played basketball, baseball, volleyball all at
college level and have been a sprinter to county standard.
I coach several different
sports, having worked as a sports development officer and a visiting
lecturer within the college system. I have been involved with a charity
for people with special needs for 20 years. I also run a youth club and
holiday play schemes for this charity.
I am a qualified sports
therapist and have been for the past nine years. I have worked with
some talented sports people as well as the general public.
My experience as a sportsperson
and coach gave me the drive to work towards my sports therapy degree. I
have worked with many patients and one of the recurring themes is back
pain.
No matter what the injuries
people present with, they also along their journey at one time or the
other would complain about a sore back. This got me thinking about a way
I could help my patients and myself as I also started to suffer back
pain as I got older.
I wanted a way that I could
help more people. I could not physically work on each and everyone. So I
devised a program which was easy to follow, easy to implement and in a
user friendly format.
This was the beginning of the
back pain management system, I used all my experience within the
aerobic, athletic and weight training fields.
I based the program around
strengthening the core muscles and in that way the spine would be
supported.
With a few tricks that I learnt
from my sports therapy I have refined this system to incorporate all
that's needed to control your back pain.
I work with some of my patients
who want and need further details to tweak and make sure the program is
right for them using other techniques such as:
- Digital Ischemic
pressures
-
Trigger points
Positional
release techniques
Muscle energy techniques
Nags and snags
