this might be for you if...

  • Something in your body doesn’t feel right, and it keeps coming back
  • You’ve tried treatments that helped temporarily, but didn’t last
  • You feel like you’re managing it, not resolving it
  • You suspect there’s something deeper going on
  • You’re open to actually working through it, not just getting a quick fix


You don’t have to be in constant pain.


If something hasn’t resolved, there’s usually a reason.

the real problem

The body adapts over time.

It compensates, shifts, and builds patterns to keep you functioning.

At a certain point, those patterns start to create tension and pain that doesn’t just go away.

Most people I see have already tried a lot - treatments, exercises, physio, different approaches.

Often they get some relief…
but nothing has fully resolved it.

Usually, it comes down to two things:

The body hasn’t properly let go of what it’s holding
And the underlying pattern driving the problem hasn’t been corrected

So even if something improves temporarily, it tends to come back.

Because the system itself hasn’t changed.

Over time, this creates an out of balance body which is why pain starts to build.

Not as something random, but as a signal that something isn’t working as it should.

This work is about addressing both sides:

Releasing what the body is holding onto
And correcting the patterns that are keeping it there

So things can actually resolve, rather than just be managed.

I tend to work with those who have tried many things but not got the result they are looking for - many people also begin to accept that the pain is an inevitable part of their future.

It does not need to be this way! If you have been struggling without answers I would love to help.

Overcome Pain

what happens in a session?

We start by looking at how your body is moving, where it’s compensating and if there are any imbalances that could be driving the pain.

From there, I work hands-on with the myofascia or connective tissue of the body to release tension, restriction, and the patterns your body has been holding.

This isn’t forceful or rushed.
We work with your system, not against it.

Alongside that, I’ll guide you through simple corrective exercises & stretches where needed based on what your body is doing to begin changing the in built patterns creating the pain.

We then build on the bodywork and exercises session by session allowing the body to unfold and remodel at it's own pace - we look for evolution, not revolution!

Everything is tailored to you.

And the aim is simple:

Less pain, better movement, and a body that starts to work properly again.

what people experience

Clients often notice;

  • A clear sense of release in the body
  • More space, movement, and ease
  • Pain reducing or shifting in a meaningful way
  • Feeling more settled or regulated
  • A better understanding of what’s been going on

When the body and nervous system both release and are supported properly, the changes tend to hold.

client results

complete body alignment

This client experienced a realignment of the body & activation of his core systems, leading to a much better sustained posture.

He maintained the same weight however looks like he has lost weight due to a tightening of the tissues through the work.

scoliosis resolution

This client experienced a resolution to her scoliosis which is when the spine bends from left to right that developed through her childhood.

The program worked with fascial bodywork and corrective exercise.

no elbow op needed

This client was facing the prospect of an elbow operation that he didn't want to have. 

The root of his problem was in his mid back causing shoulder imbalance with the elbow showing up in pain.

After a course of treatment no operation was needed.

elbow & hip issues resolved

Whilst I tend steer away from quick fix thinking this client was visiting briefly from the UK so wanted to work as much as possible with him in a long session.

He experienced a great muscle activation effect & resolution to the hip & elbow problems that had been plaguing him for months in just one session.

why this approach is different

  • Fully bespoke hands-on work and corrective exercise weaved together and used in the right way
  • We work with your nervous system, not just muscles
  • Sessions respond to what’s actually happening in your body
  • You’re not treated like something to fix
  • The focus is on resolving the pattern, not managing symptoms

Most approaches focus on one aspect.

This works by combining release and correction, viewed through a holistic lense so that your body can reorganise whilst being fully supported in multiple ways.

understanding the body

A lot of this work involves working fascia which is the dynamic connective tissue that runs through your entire body linking everything togehter.

Through the knocks, tumbles and stressors of life it becomes restricted, moving the body out of it's natural balance creating tension, pain, and patterns that don’t resolve.

If the patterns of the fascia are not addressed in a healing approach what often happens is temporary relief due to tissues being moved into a better position.

But if the fascia is not opened & the pattern changed it will often revert back in time after treatment bringing the body back into pain.

Hands-on work helps release it and movement helps it reorganise into a more balanced position.

this is for you if

  • You’re open to a deeper approach
  • You’ve tried things that haven’t fully worked
  • You’re willing to be part of the process
  • You’re open to doing simple work between sessions
  • You are beginning to accept that pain is a part of your life moving forward

this may not be for you if

  • You’re looking for a quick fix
  • You want to be treated passively without involvement
  • You’re not open to guidance or change

jesse farmer

My journey started through getting into endurance training in my home town of Bristol in the UK after a difficult bout of mental health struggles in my early 20s.

I eventually completed the Ironman triathlon in Switzerland before jumping on my bike & cycling through Mexico not long after for an amazing adventure.

I ran into some problems on that trip & had to stop biking due to knee pain from hip imbalance which was a big blow to my journey!

With the desire to get to the bottom of the pain & imbalance I then moved from a career in mechanical engineering into body engineering, qualified as a CHEK practitioner, studied at a physiotherapy clinic & built a rehab gym in London leading me into teaching massage therapy to others - although these days prefer the sun in Costa Rica!

I've been refining my craft for 10 beautiful years working with many lovely people suffering from many complex challenges & always excited to learn more, do more & help more people.

It is a deep honour & passion to serve in this way with the body being an endless study that evolves the more I learn through working to help my clients & myself.

I look forward to helping you too :)
