English Biography:
Barry is a Structural Osteopath and Sports Therapist with many years of experience working as a manual therapist.
He qualified as a Sports Therapist in 1997 before gaining a degree in Sports Science in London. Barry then worked for a number of years as a personal trainer and sports therapist. This period included working as a sports therapist at a rugby club, delivering first aid and injury management; working as a sports therapist at a tennis club; and working as a sports therapist within an Osteopathic practice. It was while working there that Barry first saw first-hand the dramatic benefits of Osteopathic treatment. Studying Osteopathy seemed a natural progression as he had a strong aptitude for manual therapy and enjoyed helping relieve people's muscle and joint pain.
Barry has recently returned to London from Singapore where he worked as an Osteopath for two and a half years in a busy clinic. He enjoys applying his background in Sports Therapy and Sports Science to provide tailored treatments which recognise a patient's training goals. His background as a personal trainer means he has an excellent understanding of exercise prescription. He also enjoys working with office workers, the elderly, people with disabilities, and mums and babies.
Barry understands the importance of treating the person as well as their injury.
