James - Advanced Remedial Massage and Sports Therapist.
Born and bred in York, I studied at the University of Leicester in Genetics and Microbiology. Following this I spent 3 years in Japan, where I met my wife (Ki), before returning to the Uk where I eventually trained as a Remedial Massage Therapist at the Northern Institute of Massage. I qualified as a Remedial Massage Therapist in 2008 and began working from Hamlynn Health. I have since qualified as an Advanced Remedial Massage Therapist (2014), and have qualified in a Diploma in Sports Therapy (2015). I have also attended further interest study into shoulder rehabilitation, Japanese On Clothes Massage, and worked with a leading dentist at a York based dental group looking into advancing local knowledge into TMJ (temporal-mastoid joint) issues that affect both soft tissue and dental issues.
Working Ethos.
At York Remedial Therapies we are fervent believers that clients should be given advice, so that they can understand how to manage their own bodies and well-being at home and in the work place, to supplement the treatment they receive at the clinic. To achieve this, we are very keen to advise clients and to suggest small lifestyle changes they can make, so that they can better succeed in achieving the needs of their bodies. To be successful in this we believe any changes need to fit into the client’s life-style, rather than trying to make the life-style fit around the changes.
The ultimate aim is to have clients needing less major treatments so that their condition can be regulated by fewer planned routine treatments.
