Back2best Postural Performance Manual Handling Training

Stop Managing Injuries. Start Building Unbreakable Teams.

For over 20 years, I’ve managed my own clinic as a Soft Tissue Specialist right here in Oxford. Every single week, I see the exact same thing: a massive, undeniable surge in people coming through my door suffering from severe back and shoulder pain caused by lifting incorrectly at work or sitting at a desk with poor posture for hours on end.

This is exactly why I have launched my on-site Postural Performance Manual Handling Training service to help proactive employers support and educate their staff.

How I Work: The On-Site Transformation

I do not deliver generic slide presentations or hand out boring pamphlets. I deliver high-energy, interactive movement and manual handling training on your active workspace floor. By correcting how your employees actually move, stand, and sit in real time, I address the root cause of chronic pain.

Here is exactly how I transform your workforce in three simple steps:

The "Industrial vs. Corporate Athlete" Reality Check

Managing my Oxford clinic for over 20 years has proven to me that incorrect lifting and poor sitting posture are the two biggest drivers of chronic physical decline in the modern workforce.

That is why my on-site training targets both:

Next Step

Don't wait for the next injury report or employee to phone in sick with a bad back to take action. Let's schedule a brief 15-minute introductory call or meeting to look at your current workplace setup and discuss how we can build a high-performance culture.

London Marathon 2026 NSPCC Team

I have just enjoyed another great day with the NSPCC Soft Tissue team at this year's London Marathon, which I have been managing since 2013!

As usual, the team were professional, hard working and lots of fun and the NSPCC fundraising runners loved their hard earned massage at the end of their run!

This event is one of the highlights of my year and I'm honoured to be asked back each year.

Regards Chris

A Fabulous Postural Workshop at the Churchill Hospital!

I was very honoured to be invited to provide my postural workshop for the Churchill hospital cancer specialist team.

It is so important to understand the negative impact misaligned posture has on the body especially when you are spending hours at work.

My workshop is always fun and informative and is always so well received, and this team where a fantastic group, very enthusiastic and keen to learn.

13th OUFC Season Completed!

Great to finish my 13th season as a member of the medical team alongside a team of fellow dedicated professionals!

This is the 'team behind the team' where everyone has their own skill set and speciality, and it's so beneficial as we work closely together to ensure the players receive the highest standard of care available.

Fantastic to follow on from last year's promotion with another successful year where we retained our Championship status!

To be able to share the event alongside my fantastic medical team colleagues, sports science, coaching staff and of course the players was such a privilege, and to be able to proudly wave to my family from the pitch is something that will stay with me forever!

Corporate Posture Workshops – The Reviews Are Coming In!

Loving my new reviews from one of my office postural workshops I presented a few weeks ago!
Employers are starting to realise the benefits, both financially and for staff welfare, of looking after their office staff by helping them realise the importance of self care and aligned posture whilst sitting for hours at their desks - rather than buying expensive 'ergonomic' office equipment!
Early days - but those forward thinking Oxfordshire companies are getting there!
