With over 20 years of movement experience as a professional dancer, Dan has a passion for all things movement-based, and has developed a keen sensibility of touch through working with people in different physical capacities and environments. Consequently, he has gained a knowledgeable understanding and intuition of reading the body in motion, identifying movement, behavioural, and compensatory patterns.
His intimate relationship to movement, work and study awoke deep respect and curiosity for the human body. He is fascinated by and continually developing a keen eye and practice on the essential role that movement, nutrition, behaviour and perception play in promoting health and well-being, and the balance between stress, resilience and recovery. This fascination led him to explore the prevention, treatment and management of chronic pain and injury.
A passion for helping people out of pain drives his growth and development in the fields of Advanced Clinical Massage, Sports Massage, Dry Needling, Nutrition Coaching and rehabilitation through movement.
He places awareness on and has the utmost respect for pain's complexity and how it affects people differently. Working with compassion and empathy, he tailors his treatment together with his clients to meet their particular needs and goals, using a comprehensive theoretical knowledge base coupled with application specificity. Dan believes in the influence of integral relationships and support in managing pain and injury, and aims to provide ongoing support to his clients long after leaving the treatment table.
Dan will return in September to the University College Of Osteopathy in London, for the second year of a five year Master's degree in Osteopathy.
