Our Story
Gordian Health was founded by Fiona and Lee Kennedy five years ago. We saw a need for a new approach to helping our clients with their health and fitness. We wanted to make use of our training and experience in nursing, medicine, fitness, nutrition and project management. Our approach is client centred and enabling. Evidence-based wherever possible and integrative – using knowledge that cuts across many disciplines. It is not just about the two of us trying to help you get the best of your health. It is about working with other partitioners who are also trying to help you and about introducing you to our associates when we think that they may be able to help you.
Why Gordian? Alexander the Great (356 – 323 BC) was one of the most powerful people in history. In 333 BC he entered the town of Gordium in Anatolia. There, he found a cart tied to a column. The knot in the rope was extremely complex with twist and turns that had no beginning and no end. Legend had it that whoever could undo the knot would rule all of Asia. Alexander studied the knot, drew his sword and cut right through it. The rest is history! Cutting the Gordian knot has come to mean adopting a bold approach to problem solving. And that is exactly what we try to do at Gordian Health.
