A calm and deeply experienced practitioner, Audley shares his journey from personal trainer to hands-on clinician — and explains how his work bridges the gap between fitness and therapy.
We explore:
The difference between treating pain and addressing its root cause
Why spinal manipulation isn’t something to fear
How core stability supports alignment and recovery
Working with pregnant women and newborns
Why movement, not rest, is often the real medicine
If you’ve been sidelined by chronic pain or worried about taking the next step, this episode offers both practical wisdom and a powerful reminder: you don’t have to live in pain — and the sooner you take action, the sooner you get your life back. 💆🏾♂️To book time with Audley, or just to find out a little more about how Theratopia clinic can help you to move freely without pain visit https://www.theratopia.co.uk/
