  • I can't recommend Duncan enough! I had a shoulder issue that really bothered me. A lot of pain and a huge impact on my life. Duncan really helped me. The shoulder is completely fine now thanks to him.

  • Duncan was absolutely fantastic! Instead of just nodding along and throwing generic advice at me, he actually listened—like, properly listened—to what was going on. If you want someone who knows their stuff, won’t tell you to just “take it easy,” and actually helps you get back to doing what you love—Duncan’s your guy. Highly recommend!

    - Merlin

  • I've been to countless bodywork therapists over the years for chronic back issues and Duncan is the first who has spoken in a language that resonates while offering a really broad toolkit of support. He's also a truly warm human who creates the perfect space for healing. I trust him implicitly and could not recommend more highly.

    - Kane

  • I’ve been working with Duncan at Life is Movement Clinic for a few months now, and I can’t recommend him highly enough. He helped me recover from a painful neck issue by not just treating the symptoms, but by looking at the root causes and building a strengthening plan to support long-term recovery. I'm now also working with him towards my general health and strength goals. His approach is incredibly welcoming, supportive, and professional, and the studio space is a great environment to work in. I always feel listened to and well supported - thanks Duncan!

  • There are physios who help you recover… …and then there are those like Duncan who specialise in and truly understand the nuance of rehab and personal training for specific medical conditions. Their approach isn’t just about getting people moving again—it’s about restoring confidence, dignity, and crucially long-term health. This kind of specialist care can be life-changing.
