In late 2020 I received a devastating cancer diagnosis resulting in two major abdominal surgeries and 6 months of chemo. Discharged from hospital i was simply told to walk and gradually increase the distance. My activities have been limited as I had been unable to find the right help.
I booked a biomechanic screening with Charles as a "last hope" and I am so glad I did! Charles is easy to talk to, extremely positive and wants to help! With a findings report and a 12-week exercise programme, Charles has given me hope and renewed purpose for my future recovery and improve my long-term health and fitness.

I am a very active outdoors person and sprained my SI joint whilst on a walking holiday. It was severe and I could not move my hip/pelvis for the first 10 days.
After just over a year of physio and osteopathic therapy, I had made very little progress and had lost hope of ever recovering back to full fitness. My condition was signficantly impacting my day-to-day life as well as my health, wellbeing and fitness.
I saw Charles for a biomechanics screening and was extremely impressed with his level of knowledge and ability to pinpoint mobility issues elsewhere that were directly affecting my SI joint. He provided a comprehensive report with numerous rehab exercises and has always been quick to respond to questions. After several months I am able to walk comfortably and have recently returned to running. Although I still have some way to go I am learning from Charles's going support how to manage my condition going forward.

I am living with Cardiovascular disease and previously described as pre-diabetic. I became a runner in an attempt to get fitter and more active, but suffered related injury setbacks.
I saw Charles for a biomechanics screening and following this he produced a tailored strength training programme. I have improved my base fitness as well as building confidence. Every follow-up session is loaded with gems of advice specific to my progress and the level of Charles's knowledge and experience is substantial and unequalled in my opinion. I have reversed a pre-diabetic assessment as a direct result of increased fitness,training guidance and dietary advice I have received from Charles. I am now running on average 40 miles a week .
