North Cornwall Physiotherapy Centre

Andrew Mooney has 15 years of experience having completed his Physiotherapy training in Australia during which he published a research thesis on low back pain. He has worked and travelled in many different public and private settings in Australia, Britain and Asia. Andrew feels that taking a holistic approach to health care is fundamental and understanding the science of how the mind, the nervous system and the body are connected together is essential to true healing. His special interests include low back pain and pelvic dysfunctions, sports injuries, shoulder/ribcage/neck problems, chronic fatigue/ME, fibromylagia, arthritis, chronic pain, headaches, general low energy and digestive problems. Andrew has a broad field of training which has led him to the philosophy that our daily lifestyle choices and behavioural patterns have a significant influence on our health or wellbeing. Andrew's experience has shown him that by supporting clients to observe and be more aware of their daily patterns a deeper healing can result.
