Square 1™ utilises a brain based approach to uncover the root causes behind pain and restricted movement, while the majority of well intended therapists use a tissue based approach which focuses more on the muscles. In reality, it is actually the brain that is in charge of our experience of pain and our movement limitations. The brain makes a decision first, THEN the muscles respond to that neurological input. Square 1™ has discovered the brains' maps for our 2 rudimentary movement patterns. These maps contain the specific details of how over 216 joint positions serve as the building blocks of getting upright and moving. These patterns are the foundation of more advanced movements like throwing, hopping, using a fork, sitting and typing on a keyboard, and executing amazing gymnastics maneuvers. If the rudimentary patterns are of high quality, pain-free movement is almost a certainty. If the rudimentary patterns are of low quality, pain is very likely. Our nervous system has to compensate on a daily basis, but sometimes our behaviours or unfortunate circumstances can cause us to over compensate. This leads to load intolerant joint actions which then result in restricted movement, injury and/or chronic pain. Square 1™ allows us to reopen blocked neurological pathways and improve a joints' ability to tolerate load again. This reduces movement compensation. Reduced compensation promotes healing, accelerates recovery, increases strength, mobility, reaction times, all around athleticism and most importantly allows for pain free movement.

Square 1™ sessions are performed on a massage table, however it is NOT massage therapy. The system utilises neuro-response testing, which will be explained to you at the beginning of your first session. The testing and interventions used are non invasive, but will require you to perform specific movements both on and off the table.

Although many people experience significant pain reduction and performance improvements within 4 sessions, this will be different for each individual. My sole focus is on helping you reduce your pain and improve your performance as fast as possible. I'll be doing my best to achieve that from your very first session.

The Square 1™ system I use is a new concept that, while founded on science is also AHEAD of the current research and practices (a bold claim but a true one). On average it tends to take 13 years for a scientific concept to be accepted and widespread once the research has been conducted. This system is currently in its infancy and as such, many people will not have heard of or even know how to classify the techniques used at this moment in time. As the first person in the world to bring this to the UK, I can say with confidence that I expect this to change in the future.

Home/office visits local to Slough are currently available.

Sports wear is the best option but non restrictive clothes that you can move around in are also fine. Shorts, lycra or tracksuit bottoms are recommended. In most cases I can work more efficiently if your shoes are off, so please also make sure you wear socks for hygiene purposes.
