I have just seen a client for the third time. We've already made a positive difference to her foot pain. One of the things we have corrected is her leg length difference. When I screened her we found that she had a leg length difference (as well as a few more areas where her movement [...]
Today I would like to share with you the story of a runner I have been working with. Joost came to me because he had heard about what I do and wondered if I could help him with the problems he had been experiencing while running. I explained to him that I don't treat pain and [...]

Last Saturday, I spoke about how to recover after long training runs. Here are the tips I gave for a good recovery after long runs: Nutrition Make [...]
We've just posted this new photo on the slideshow that's on the home page of the website. I was originally looking for a stock photo I could buy to demonstrate highly driven, hard working women with a slant on triathlon. It was really a challenge to find and I was disappointed to see this type of image [...]
I recently went to Loughborough University for a Movement Convention - a day of filling my brain with lots of new information. There was so much to take in that on the Monday after my mind was blank. But now I’ve had a some time to reflect, I would like to share a few titbits of [...]
