Here at The Functional Health Clinic we help you solve your Chronic Health Challenges. Integrated methods for your Health Restoration Program.

This week at The Functional Health Clinic:

Chronic Right Knee Pain - Before they came to us, our client had been experiencing knee pain for a number of years. The cause unknown and frustrating. Was it related to some inflammatory processes going on or was it structural? We alleviated this pain as soon as we targeting and resolved the chronic tension in their right hamstring. The hamstrings are like 'ropes' and will often be a primary driver of structural and movement imbalances and asymmetries. With better form comes better function!

Resolving Pain to Enhance Sleep - The connected nature of the steps we aim to put in place and the way we see the body, means that we do more than just a 'this for that' approach. The way to improve someone's 'sleep' challenges isn't necessarily to throw all the 'sleep' strategies at them. This bigger picture perspective enabled real progress here.

This week's HRP Membership Call is focussing on Movement and Structure. We'd love to see you there: https://functionalhealthclinic.co.uk/join-the-health-restoration-program/

Improving the Rhythm of the Menstrual Cycle - It can take time, but if we can continue to fine-tune the connected and rhythmical nature of the menstrual hormonal cycle - then we should be able to continue the improvements we are getting with this client this week.

High Cholesterol markers and Auto-Inflammatory mechanisms - We are often contacted by people when they have out-of-range Cholesterol markers on their blood tests. We leave the 'diagnosis and treatment' to Medical Doctors. What we are focussed on is assessing and understanding the individual immune and inflammatory mechanisms. How can we modulate them? What needs dampening down and what needs ramping up? That's what we are interested in.

In creating and delivering the Health Restoration Program we didn’t want it to be just another course, full of all the same content and information that’s already available.

Having a lack of information is no longer really a challenge with advances in technology.

But taking information and sharing it in a coherent and meaningful way is what will make the difference with this program.

With so many fascinating, insightful and valuable topics in health, that are truly worth covering and implementing – how do you deliver that in a practical and useful way?

Do you cover all nutrition first and then move on to movement and exercise? Do you try to apply changes in all areas of health from day 1? It’s tricky, but we’ve addressed this by delivering the topics and steps in a structured, yet flexible way.

In a way that provides guidance, focus and direction alongside the flexibility to individualise and prioritise.

Remember – this course isn’t here to tick-boxes. It’s here to actually make a difference to your wellbeing and quality of life!

That’s why we really appreciate you taking the time to learn and embrace our way of teaching the Health Restoration Program and the R-Phases are pivotal in this.

We already know the bigger picture of the 4 Stages that we are moving through (Foundation, Grounding, Rhythm and Flow). These are the big steps.

The R-Phases are the medium steps. They sit inside each Stage:

1 REFLECT

2 REVEAL

3 REWIRE

4 REBALANCE

5 RESTORE

6 REINTEGRATE

Each phase has been created and designed to flow from one to the other, teaching you the strategies in the most effective way. Integrating tools such as functional medicine, assessments, structural bodywork, coaching techniques, understanding human function, creative behaviours, nutrition fine-tuning, movement as your medicine and much more.

"I have seen many doctors for my digestive and hormonal problems and sadly most weren’t able to help. I have to say that Jack’s Program is by far the best health program I’ve ever used. It has so many great ways to improve your health whether you have a medical condition or an average person looking to boost their health."

Marie contacted us because she was experiencing palpitations, heat in her stomach and anxiety among other health challenges. She'd recently had a visit to A&E with an intense episode and received medical interventions which had helped manage the symptoms.

Yet, she was on a merry-go-round of up and down symptoms that never actually resolved and it was impacting so many things in her life.

When we added the functional approach it appeared to help her make huge progress. Marie's dedication was impressive. It's one thing being prepared to make such changes, but applying them in the midst of the whirlwind of challenges is something that Marie excelled at!

There are some principles of human function that we find the most fascinating and that appear to have the most impact when coaching 'health'.

We love prioritising and emphasising these in our coaching process because once these elements are in place, everything else runs more smoothly.

Appreciating these principles:
- helps us understand the health challenges we're experiencing
- drives decisions on what assessments to run and where to look for answers
- individualises and prioritises what steps and strategies to put in place
- provides context for our responses throughout the whole process

Jump on board the HRP Membership for insight into these principles and guidance on all the above 🙂

The rhyme and reason behind the Health Restoration Program is to help people progress towards and achieve their ultimate health goals. To work with you through a process.

With this in mind – You will see that the HRP has 4 Stages:

Foundation
Grounding
Rhythm
Flow
These 4 stages give us our framework.

We’ve created this process because:

– The process and journey involved in enhancing health is not linear.

– The process is cyclic and these 4 stages complement that.

– Nobody can do everything at once (or needs to).

– Certain steps are often implemented too soon.

– Certain steps are often missed or implemented too late.

– Human Function is designed around priorities and primary drivers.

– If the journey is relatively simple, then great. But – if required, we want the opportunity to teach you everything we know.

– There is a rhyme and reason to the ‘what, why and how’ of health strategies.

– The skill set at the beginning of the process is different to the skill set required to develop as you achieve what you set out to achieve.

– Buffer zones and robustness are important.

Ultimately we want you to spiral towards your health goals as we coach you how to solve the chronic health challenges from foundation to flow.

The rhyme and reason behind the Health Restoration Program is to help people progress towards and achieve their ultimate health goals. To work with you through a process.

And we know that to be successful and effective this requires some careful forethought and design.

Rather than just randomly covering all the vast number of topics within ‘health’ in any order, or what happens to be popular or trending, or just thinking that more information is always better – we know that the way and order in which we coach and share information will make all the difference.

We have created a framework that complements the value of both structure and flexibility. The balance of creating a logical flow through, with the creative space for individualisation and nuance.

With this in mind – You will see that the HRP has 4 Stages:

Foundation
Grounding
Rhythm
Flow
These 4 stages give us our framework.

Each Stage will last 3 Months.

To complete the whole HRP you will invest in a whole 12 months.

We’ve created this process because:

– The process and journey involved in enhancing health is not linear.

– The process is cyclic and these 4 stages complement that.

– Nobody can do everything at once (or needs to).

– Certain steps are often implemented too soon.

– Certain steps are often missed or implemented too late.

Bowen Therapy or Technique is typically quite light as bodywork goes.

It's non-invasive - yet the responses and results can be quite powerful.

It's not about which is the 'best' manual therapy or bodywork technique out there! It's about the value it has for a given individual's situation and what mechanisms are being influenced.

Align these two things and you are on to something. And there's no need to chase the pain around the body.

1 year after completing her support program Brooke emailed me to say:

"Hi Jack. I am fantastic! Since speaking with you last I have become a qualified personal trainer and have never felt more alive and confident. The knowledge I was given/taught from yourself about nutrition/exercise and just the human body inspired me to want to help others.

I never want a single person out there to ever feel the way I did if I can help it. Thanks to you I can finally take on the world and finally start living again." 🙂
