Osteopath and biomechanic to elite performers and leading businesses

Physiologist, Evolutionary Psychologist and Performance Consultant

As a physician and consultant i have many varied and overlapping skills, and yet despite this the description of my work remains simple...i remove the barriers to elite performance.

It may surprise you but even the very top performers have inherant structural, physiological and psychological problems that prevent them from operating at their best. Together these ‘unseen’ problems provide the answer to most recurrent injuries, inconsistancies and underperformance.

As an Osteopath my experience with many top international performers has shown that the traditional triad of doctors, physiotherapists and orthopeadic consultants consistantly fails to recognise underlying structural problems or do not possess the skills to correct them. Consequently they merely MANAGE injuries as they arise and hope to keep a performer going for as long as possible before they either fall below competitive standards or completely break down.

Through correcting fundamental asymmetries and imbalances in their bodies, i have already saved many top performers from unnecessary injuries and probable surgery. Moreover i have improved the efficiency of their bodies so much that most have subsequently gone on to reached the highest peaks in their careers.

On top of these physical skills i have studied physiology, diet and nutrition to medical levels and i have written a groundbreaking book on evolutionary psychology. This allows me to get a ‘total picture’ on an individual and work out where their barriers to elite performance lie and how they overlap.

My analysis and corrective skills are unique in the UK and probably in Europe. I work for a selected number of high profile organisations and see a small number of clients at my centre in Belgravia, London (www.lightcentrebelgravia.co.uk) on Tuesdays and in St Albans on Mondays (£75 per 1/2 hour session; £100 initial consultation).

My most effective work is conducted through a 12-week intensive programme. I see clients for 1-2 hours each week, first analysing their asymmetries and weaknesses, then breaking down the failing patterns and rebuilding them so they are less injury prone and more efficient. It is the gold standard in all one-on-one therapy and therefore comes at a premium, i.e. £180 per session.
