John is a highly trained and skilled Personal Trainer, Myofacial Release Therapist and Human Foundations (Bio-mechanics) Practitioner who is passionate about helping his clients move the way their bodies are supposed to move.
John takes a holistic approach to movement, focusing on addressing the root causes of pain, dysfunction, and movement restrictions rather than just treating symptoms.
His expertise lies in correcting posture, optimizing gait cycles (how you walk and run), and helping clients rediscover natural, pain-free movement.
Since walking and running are the most fundamental human actions, John’s work is essential for anyone looking to enhance performance, prevent injury, and move efficiently.
How Myofascial Release Therapy Helps Runners
For runners, Myofascial Release Therapy (MRT) is a game-changer. Unlike traditional treatments that focus solely on muscles or joints, MRT works on the connective tissue (fascia) that surrounds and supports the muscles, allowing for better mobility, flexibility, and alignment. Runners often suffer from tight hip flexors, restricted calves, plantar fasciitis, or knee pain due to fascial adhesions and imbalances.
By releasing restrictions in the fascia, John helps runners achieve a smoother, more efficient stride, reducing impact stress on joints and lowering the risk of injuries such as IT band syndrome, Achilles tendonitis, and shin splints. This method enhances recovery by improving circulation and oxygen flow to overworked muscles, allowing runners to train harder with less risk of breakdown.
The Superiority of Myofascial Release Therapy Over Traditional Methods
Myofascial Release Therapy offers a far more effective and lasting solution than traditional massage, physiotherapy, or chiropractic adjustments. While standard massage may temporarily relieve tension by working on surface muscles, it doesn’t address the deeper fascial restrictions that often cause recurring pain and movement issues.
Physiotherapy tends to focus on isolated muscle strengthening, sometimes overlooking the interconnectedness of the entire kinetic chain. Chiropractic care, while useful for spinal alignment, does not release fascial adhesions that restrict movement throughout the body. MRT, however, takes a whole-body approach—identifying and correcting movement dysfunctions at their source, restoring natural mobility, and optimizing the body’s ability to heal and perform. By improving movement efficiency and reducing compensations, MRT empowers clients to move freely, recover faster, and maintain pain-free activity for life.
John guarantees a truly transformative and unique experience, providing deep insights into how the human body has evolved to move and function at its best. His greatest passion is helping clients unlock their full movement potential, feel young, and live without physical barriers. He is highly supportive, incredibly knowledgeable, and fully committed to helping every client take control of their movement, recovery, and overall well-being.
"John has literally changed the way I move, walk, and how my entire body functions. My body’s biomechanics have improved fast. I can now run, twitch, and walk easier, better and faster - with much less effort. John’s instructions and explanations are clear which he demonstrates and follows with specific exercises that you can feel change and improve your body in real time. I highly recommend John’s specialised myofascial release and body mechanics skills to anyone looking to improve their functionality, strength, and quality of life." - Ryan Musgrave
