The Origin

All the best stories turn pain into power, and that's exactly where the origins of Movement is Medicine™ began.

Movement is Medicine™'s inception stems from my profound health journey, making it all the more remarkable. People often ask me, "What is the one thing that aided your recovery?" and I tell them that it wasn't just one thing, but it was Movement is Medicine™ that saved me.

I worked in the music industry for many years. I had a lucrative career, working for some of the top companies in the world and creating a network of creatives, artists, producers, DJs and musicians. However, my health struggles cast a shadow over everything I was accomplishing. After years of supposedly random and severe health problems, misdiagnosis, failed procedures and operations going wrong, I had accumulated a lot of medical trauma, which was the ultimate reason for my health deteriorating, but something I didn’t understand yet, nor was it ever suggested as the cause of these ongoing health problems. In 2018 my body had had enough, and it began to shut down with endless symptoms; I felt like I was going to die. I was seriously ill, and the NHS couldn’t help me. I found myself in the bracket of a mystery illness.

Desperate for a solution, I raised funds through Go Fund Me and sought treatment at an integrative hospital in Mexico. After further testing, they discovered issues with my immune system and endocrine system, and infections in my lungs and joints, but no clear reason as to why this was happening, as no one had diagnosed trauma as the cause.

Despite the intense and experimental therapies I received there, my condition worsened, leaving me unable to walk at points, and I started experiencing seizures. Determined to recover my health, I extended my stay in Mexico for a further five months to explore alternative indigenous healing modalities.
