The specially designed BSR couch helps support your spine and prevents the need to roll over during treatment.
I first studied physiology, psychology at Chester University and in America an SUNY Plattsburg. My studies focussed not only on elite sports performance but on rehabilitation and injury prevention.
My career in fitness management and wellbeing has spanned over 20 years, firstly as a manager of spa's and healthclubs before becoming a trainer and educator within the health and fitness industry and a qualified teacher in 2010.
I have always enjoyed working with people, helping them make changes to their lives. I am grateful that I can use my knowledge and skills to improve people’s quality of health, mobility and mental wellbeing.
The positive benefits of BSR became evident when my daughter was suffering from debilitating daily migraines and headaches. Over a period of four years we tried a number of remedies available through the NHS, a catalogue of medicines and a number of different complementary techniques until we came across BSR.
The regular BSR sessions helped my daughter reclaim her life, regain her confidence and independence. The headaches still occur periodically, but she is independent of medication and the headaches are less severe and far less frequent.
The success of the BSR with my daughter inspired me to leave my job and train to become a practitioner in this unique complementary technique. Becoming a BSR practitioner was the natural step for me to take.
Steve's career journey has now come full circle and he is now focussing on health and rehabilitation once again, working as a Body Stress Release practitioner, where he is able to give people unique personal advice and guidance, based on his wide-ranging experience and his driving desire to help people improve their wellbeing both mentally and physically.
