Hello, I’m Chris Adams.
I am a Sports & Remedial Massage Therapist, Personal Trainer and Movement Therapist.
I’ve been providing Health & Movement Solutions in the Forest of Dean for 12 years.
On Thursdays I work from the brilliant Rejoov UK Contrast Therapy Centre in Lydney.
My work is aimed at helping people to move past Chronic Pain and help them feel confident to do the things they want to do.
I utilise exercise, manual therapy and lifestyle coaching.
But the biggest thing I do is ask lots and lots of questions.
We can ascertain the ‘What’ - the site, the process and the nature of the Pain.
But Pain only tells us we have a problem, it doesn’t tell us what is.
More important than the ‘What’ is the ‘Why?’.
Pain is an experience.
It is not a thing we can touch, palpate, massage, stretch, adjust or needle.
These things are all just different types of sensory information that the Brain has to make sense of.
Understanding someone’s experience of their problem helps us to deliver lasting long term solutions.
This incorporates a very detailed physical assessment, lifestyle assessment, manual therapy, exercise and coaching.
These are threaded together into a strategy with the long term goal is to create agency in the individual.
A sense that they are in control and they can create the change they want to see.
If you are struggling with Chronic and Persistent Pain, or Reoccurring Injury, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
