Programmes are bespoke; tailored to your individual needs, including clinical diagnosis and treatment, medications, side-effects, musculoskeletal considerations, and your goals.
Tom accepts self-referrals and referrals from your medical team, with whom he can communicate with, and provide regular reports to, throughout your programme.
All exercise programmes are able to be followed remotely, via video call consultations and exercise sessions, via an online platform, or a combination of the two, allowing you to structure your programme in a way that best suits you. Being remotely delivered, programmes are accessible to, and are followed by, individuals all over the world and provide the flexibility required by those who travel frequently to be able to adhere to their programme wherever they may be.
Whichever programme format you choose, you will receive meticulously monitoring of your training sessions and exercise workload and your programme will be adapted as necessary to ensure the optimal physiological outcomes are achieved to progress you towards your physiological goals.
