What is Neurophysiology?
How chronic pain occurs.

Neurophysiology is how the brain, body, and nervous system communicate - and why pain, tension, or fatigue can persist long after an injury or stressful period has passed.

When the nervous system is overwhelmed, it stays alert. Protective. On guard.

My work focuses on helping you feel safe enough to soften, regulate, and heal again.

If you’re living with ongoing pain, tension, or stress that doesn’t fully make sense - your experience is valid, and I can support you.

Your pain isn’t a sign of dysfunction.

We often think of chronic pain as the body failing or breaking down. I want to reframe that entirely. Neurophysiologically, your body isn’t being dysfunctional—it’s actually being too good at its job.

Here is the 3-step process of how chronic, non-pathological pain occurs:

1. The Overwhelm: Life hits us with something massive—grief, shock, or intense prolonged pressure.

2. The Trigger: Your sympathetic nervous system kicks into gear. You become hyper-functional. You “switch on” to survive or cope.

3. The Persistence: Your system becomes so good at staying “on” that it forgets how to stand down. Eventually, that internal tension manifests as physical symptoms: headaches, knee pain, back pain, or even hyper-vigilance in mental health.

You aren’t broken. You’re just stuck in “high gear.”

My work is about helping you find the “off” switch so your body can finally return to its natural state of healing. 🌿

This week, I had the pleasure of working with a mum and her baby experiencing changes after a challenging birth.

Without going into specifics, what often happens in these cases is that the parasympathetic nervous system—the part of us that rests, digests, and heals—can struggle to switch on. Instead, both mum and baby can remain stuck in a fight-or-flight state.

When treating babies, around 80% of the work is actually supporting the mum. If mum is balanced, the baby responds too. Treatment is a careful blend of hands-on and hands-off approaches, helping both understand and release tension, supporting true recovery at the root—not just managing symptoms.

Whether it’s a baby or an adult, the principle is the same: I delve deeper, addressing the underlying causes for lasting relief. 💫

Do you suffer from painful headaches?

Heavy pressure behind your eyes? Brain fog? A feeling like your head is going to explode?

I treat and see patients on a weekly basis with relentless headaches and migraines that take over their life.

Here are 3 key causes in the development of uncomplicated, chronic headaches and migraines

1. Your Environment – Be consciously aware of environmental factors - things that are happening now or in the past, which have caused upset. These can cause the Sympathetic Nervous System (SNS) to up-regulate.

2. Tissue Tension – The resulting tissue tension is unlikely to only cause headaches - it can cause widespread tension - notice how/where this is in the body.

3. Stress or Trauma – When a headache appears, this is the culmination (a symptom) of the neuro-physiological (brain-body) reaction to upset and elevated SNS response.

I can help with these symptoms as long as there are no underlying complications.

Be pain free 🤩

End of the week 🎉
First full week in January done ✔️

If you have pain which in non-traumatic (not from injury) and non-pathological, there is a very strong probability this chronic pain is due to elevated Sypathetic Nervous System (SNS) activity. This causes a fight/flight response, elevated tension in the body and PAIN!!!

This is what I help people with- check the reviews.
If you are in pain - let’s start a conversation. Let’s get you better 🌟

Environment Matters.

Healing doesn’t always happen in a clinic.
It happens where you feel safe enough to release.

I calm your nervous system and reduce physical tension. When tension decreases, pain decreases — whether it’s headaches, fatigue, tightness, or ongoing illness.

“ My first visit to see Ed in his clinic had a huge impact on me. Not only was he kind and amazingly attentive, I could also feel that his gentle treatment was having an immediate effect.

I was curious to know more and privileged to join others at a workshop/course run by Ed, “An Introduction to Healing” Here Ed introduced us to the fundamentals of healing and his role in the process. He talked about the microcosm, energy, duality, trauma and much more.

The course really opened my eyes to the huge benefits and possibilities of his work and how Ed can facilitate the healing process and change in tangible practical ways. The way that I approach and feel about things now, in particular health issues, has changed and definitely been positively impacted by the way that he has guided me.

Clearly Ed is incredibly knowledgeable, intuitive and effective in what he does.”

Thanks you so much for your review Tricia Gregory.

“I came with a chronic shoulder problem and hadn’t been able to sleep comfortably for years.

I pursued all sorts of other treatments until an exceptional physio directed me to this form of treatment. My 1st experience with Ed was great, and after the 2nd I knew I was on the road to recovery.

He was able to trace back to my first injury which had started a rollercoaster of issues. I have been-pain free for over a year and have not looked back.

Miracles happen with Ed.”
