How I Got Here<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have a BEd Hons degree in Physical Education, Biology and Dance from which I taught in schools for 8 years where I taught and coached a wide variety of sports, activities and dance as well as teaching GCSE and examining \u2018A\u2019 Level Physical Education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During this time, I examined for OCR as well as playing National League Hockey too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whilst teaching I did a MSc in Sport and Exercise Science and went on to a Senior Lectureship at De Montfort University as it was then, for 5 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I qualified as a Massage Therapist with the LSSM in 2003\/4 which re-ignited my interest in biomechanics, exercise physiology and sports psychology. So when I met Joanne Elphinston for the first at a conference in Bedford (https:\/\/www.jemsmovement.com\/about-jems\/joanne-elphinston\/<\/a>) I had found myself. From that point on I immersed myself in her Clinical Rehabilitator training and became a Certified JEMS Practitioner in Clinical Rehabilitation in 2012.<\/p>\n\n\n

During my time with the JEMS principles I would like to think I have increased my knowledge base, refined my understanding of biomechanics, motor learning, physiology, philosophy and psychology. All of which inform my work and my life \u2013 I embody the JEMS principles on a daily basis – so my clients can have a confidence in what they find out about themselves and support to embody what they discover to be pain free, better movers with understanding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Helen\u2019s knowledge of the human body, coupled with her listening and observational skills give her a unique ability to diagnose, treat and advise clients to help realign, relieve pain, strengthen and to continue to use their bodies in an efficient way day to day.  I would not go anywhere else for help, she is amazing.<\/em>“<\/p>\n\n\n\n
