CORRECTIVE EXERCISE & REHABILITATION COACHING
A PERSONALLY CRAFTED PROCESS OF RECONNECTION & RECALIBRATION
-
It begins with an in-depth biomechanical assessment of your physical state as shown by your posture, movement & breath, past injuries & surgeries.
It includes an appraisal of your lifestyle, habits & diet choices, sleep quality & digestive health.
It takes into account the person behind the ‘problem’, your unique personal history and how it has shaped your physiology and mindset.
It is an approach that weaves together the skill and technical expertise behind CHEK corrective exercise & DNS clinical rehabilitation with the subtle art of self-enquiry & honest dialogue with one’s own internal belief systems, thoughts & emotions.
-
This program is for people who have been dealing with chronic pain, persistent injuries or ‘niggles’, or underlying compensations that are limiting your potential.
It is for people who understand the body is an interconnected system that responds to the holistic approach - that there is no mind/body separation.
It is for people who are courageous and open enough to stop chasing the ‘quick fix’ and be supported in uncovering and unwinding the layers of compensation and coping strategies that are adopted in times of stress and high demand, but break down over time.
-
As a certified CHEK Functional Health Coach, DNS Exercise Trainer & Licensed Myofascial Release Massage Therapist, I bring the best of each of these modalities into my work as a coach.
From over 500 hours of 1-on-1 coaching, working with complex cases including post-surgical spinal & knee rehab, bulging vertebral discs & thoracic outlet syndrome, to nuanced cases of mental/emotional challenges & limiting self-beliefs, I bring a broad scope of skills, experience & intuitive guidance into my client sessions.
This program is the coming-together of years of study, practise, professional experience & personal application.

HOW THE PATH UNFOLDS

1. ENQUIRY
We begin here, with a free consultation covering the basics of where you are at and what you need.
A brief discussion where you get a chance to ask any questions, air any concerns, and set your intentions for our work together.
Once you are ready to commit, we book an assessment date and I provide you with the necessary paperwork.

2. INTAKE
Intake begins after I provide you with a series of questionnaires that are filled out and returned by you prior to the assessment date.
I provide you with a 7-day Lifestyle Diary that you commence recording your daily diet, sleep, symptom & movement data.

3. ASSESSMENT
We commence with a 2+ hour biomechanical analysis that looks at posture, primal-pattern movements, joint range-of-motion, spinal curvature, breathing mechanics, stability & core function.
Everything that follows is built from that baseline, tailoring the programme to your specific needs and goals, restoring balance, building resilience and cultivating robust physical and mental wellbeing.

4. PROGRAM
I craft your specific program based on the synthesis of assessment data & personal context and aligned to your intended goals & outcomes.
It commences with a stretching/mobilisation & breathing mechanics phase, evolving to included movements for core & postural stability, then towards more loaded & dynamic exercises that build strength on a solid foundation.

5. EXECUTION
We commence in-person sessions implementing your program, introducing your holistic lifestyle protocol, and ensuring you feel confident in your understanding of the overall strategy & its execution.
Between sessions you follow the structured weekly outline, maintain consistency & implement recommended lifestyle interventions.

6. EVOLUTION
Over the course of our time together, the program evolves with you. New challenges replace old as we progress from foundations to more complex movements.
You naturally shift from needing guided practice to more independent execution.
Sessions focus on consolidation and calibration. The work becomes autonomously yours.

7. CONCLUSION / CONTINUATION
We conclude with a re-assessment of your original target markers, the physical & lifestyle goals.
Ensuring you feel confident with the road ahead, we close this chapter & celebrate your achievement.
I offer an optional continuation and check-in model for clients who want ongoing & progressive accountability, support & development.
HOW EACH SESSION IS STRUCTURED:
-
We begin with a brief conversation addressing your current level of pain, energy & mental/emotional state. Then we assess through taking measurements and looking at movement or posture to establish the baseline for that specific session.
-
Through a combination of release work, stretching & mobilisation, we address any restriction that may be impeding the movement we are working to strengthen.
Then I guide you in specific exercises that isolate the function of that specific region - for example hip internal/external rotation or shoulder extension - to establish a strong neuromuscular connection to that area.
-
Once there is established connection & coordination from the isolation phase of the session, we look at re-integrating the target area to the body system through a global movement pattern with appropriate loading via either external load, time under tension or intrinsic muscular activation .
-
Each session concludes with revisiting your program, updating any movements or exercises that may have changed, establishing the goals for the week ahead, and clearing up any questions you may have.
I then send an email with a brief summary as well as any topics or lifestyle changes we have identified as necessary to your continued progress.
WHAT IS THE HOLISTIC APPROACH?
-
PHYSICAL ASSESSMENT
In your biomechanical analysis, I gain a clear picture of what is occurring within your body through assessing your posture, the muscle length-tension relationships, primal pattern movements and breathing mechanics. This informs your personalised corrective exercise program.
-
DIET & LIFESTYLE
Your body and mind are an expression of the ecosystem that is created within, and the greatest influences on that inner ecosystem are the things you do every day - your diet, habits & sleep patterns. We look closely at the decisions you’re making each day and how they’re influencing your overall wellbeing.
-
THOUGHTS & BELIEFS
The notion that body and mind are separate is vastly outdated. We cannot work with the physical in the absence of working with the energetic. Your mind, thoughts, beliefs, fears and perceptions all influence how your body expresses itself through posture, movement and breath.
