Optimal health Who does not want to live a pain free life? I would love to be able to get under the 220 kg deadlift that I did in my 20’s and 30’s and grind out a 1 rep max with slightly dubious form and still get away with it. I would love to take … Read more

Yoga case history One lady came in who kept getting pain in her lower back when ever she did a back bend in yoga. Watching her walk it was … Read more
Hip and Pelvis Workshop. On Saturday myself and Ulric Whyte were honoured to share our love of anatomy and movement with 25 fellow movement omnivores in our Movement Lab ‘hip and pelvis’ workshop (which has now been renamed ‘It’s so hip it’s nearly pelvis’). Everyone stepped into the unknown and challenged their comfort zones, be … Read more
Treatment experiment On a trip down to the coast the other day I was challenged to boil down my assessment, diagnosis and treatment into a 30-minute session.
