Happy Summer Solstice!

As the year winds down, I wanted to send a quick end-of-year note.

The last few weeks have been a mix of finishing up with some long-term clients, starting with a few new ones in December, and even having people travel a long way just to finally get on top of their back pain.

That part never gets old.

Overall, it’s been a year with a lot of wins.

Seeing people move out of pain, regain confidence in their bodies, and get back to doing what they love has been a real highlight.

I also quietly ticked over 40 recently.

That milestone has brought a lot of reflection.

The biggest lesson for me this year has been balance; doing meaningful work, while still being present with family and the people that matter most.

A quick heads-up on Christmas dates: I’ll be closing from 20th December and back working from 5th January 2026.

If you need to get in touch before January, you can do so here:

Wishing you a happy Summer Solstice, a Merry Christmas, and a safe, relaxed New Year.

Thanks for being part of the journey this year.

Will there be a need for me now that AI is taking over?

Will AI take over my business?

I bloody hope so! Get some of my time back 😁

I did a simple test in ol' faithful ChatGPT.

I asked it to write me a rehab program for a client of mine with lower back and nerve pain.

The results....

Not bad, but not good.

Here is what I liked:

• Exercise selection was good.

• The amount of time to do the program was great for someone starting rehab (15-20 mins)

Here is what I didn't like:

• Appeared to not know what muscle fibres it was supposed to be working

• Did not provide rest periods

• Did not know how to structure a program neurologically.

• It did not address the nerve pain

So....would the program work?

I would say there is a 30-50% chance it would work.

The reality is, the only reason it was able to write a half-arsed program is I fed it information I found during my assessments.

So to answer my questions....

Yes, there is absolutely a need as long as people are serious about moving out of pain.

And I do hope I can integrate AI into my business to streamline processes, and areas of my business I have little interest in.

I believe it's about evolving my practice and business with AI, not me VS AI.

Are you finding AI to be helpful or a hindrance in your business?

If you’re a practitioner, you’ll get this one…

Caught up with and .crofts today.

It was good energy hanging out with these two.

All of us are CHEK Practitioners, and it was great do some assessments for Drew.

What I love most about connecting with other practitioners is how much I learn every time.

We all have different approaches to healing, assessment, and corrective exercise, and that’s the best part.

When I stay open to different perspectives, I can integrate new ideas into my own framework and see what actually works in the real world.

The truth?

Working as a holistic health coach, rehabilitation specialist, or back-pain practitioner can feel isolating at times.

You’re often running sessions, writing programs, and carrying the responsibility of helping people out of pain.

But getting around others in the same field changes everything.

You bounce ideas.

You deepen your understanding.

You sharpen your craft.

And you leave better equipped to support clients with back pain, gut issues, posture imbalances, and all the complex stuff we see every day.

Grateful for days like this. 🙏

In your line of work, are you running solo or do you have people you connect with regularly?

Would love to hear how you stay supported.

You live in the Blue Mountains?

No worries, we'll sort out your back pain!

Hannah first came to me 7 months ago, with crippling lower back pain.

She had seen my work through social media and decided she would make the trip up to the Gold Coast start her healing journey.

Well...we didn't make distance an issue and I tailored a program with a mix of in person and online work.

This is what she had to say about her experience working with me:

"Reece is an extremely passionate, knowledgeable and epically beautifully human.

He is so very dedicated to his craft and leaves no measurements unchecked.

After over a decade of lower back pain and a long history of seeking many chiropractic packages, osteopaths, bowen therapy, massage, dry needling...I finally found Reece... and am well on the path to a stronger not only body...but heart, mind and spirit too.

I can sleep without waking multiple times a night, I can swim, hike and have just started attempted jogging again.

Unexpectedly, I have also recognised and faced many unconscious patterns that were lingering below the surface.

Investing in Reece was the first time I've had a cheerleader and mentor in my corner.

I'm so glad I valued myself enough to make this commitment, and thoroughly recommend Reece to anyone who is hesitating on taking the leap."

I just bought $450 worth of organic meat.

Expensive?

Not at all.

This will do me and the family close to a month.

More nutrient dense than commercially grown meat, my whole body felt such a difference when I changed to organic 8 years ago.

Not all protein and fat are equal, not by a long shot.

Your cells, tissue, organs etc are made from whatever you eat.

Eat s**t, feel s**t.

Simple.

Organic, free range meat means there is less stress on the animal, no artificial toxic sprays, and high soil quality.

If the animal has poor quality tissue, you will have poor tissue, meaning pain and injury.

Don't get me wrong, there are times where I have poorer quality meat, but 80-90% is organic.

If you want to get strong and pre ent injury, eat as organic as you can.

Are you eating organic? Do you even know where you can get it from?

I'm a bit nervous about this post....can you see how sweaty I am?

Nah, just teasing.

But as it's getting hotter, make sure your fluids are up.

Drink high quality filtered water with salts like Celtic Grey Sea Salt.

Believe me, your body will thank you.

What's your go to drink to hydrate? ....who is the first one to say beer? 🤣

Multiple injuries from sports, car accidents, and moving countries...

Chris was in a world of pain.

And avoided training legs as it flared up his back pain.

But after 3 months of working with me, Chris was squatting and feadlifting again.

Here is what he had to say about his experience:

"l’ve just finished a three-month program focused on rehabilitating a lower back injury from 11 years ago.

With a long history of other injuries as well, taking things back to basics and resetting my body was exactly what I needed.

I can’t speak highly enough of Reece’s care and attention to detail in developing my program and path forward.

His depth of knowledge, holistic approach, and guidance have already delivered solid results that I’m eager to build on.

The experience has been an invaluable investment, and I highly recommend anyone dealing with pain to work with Reece — you won’t regret it!"

If your shoulder blades wing… this one’s for you.

This is a great activation that helps get the shoulder blades back on the rib cage.

If you have rounding of the shoulders or a steep rib cage, often there is an associated issue with the serratus anterior

This multi-headed muscle under your armpit is a massive player in keeping the scapula anchored to the rib cage.

When it’s weak, the shoulder blade lifts, wings, tilts, and basically stops doing its job.

And when the scapula isn’t stable… everything above and below starts to complain.

In the video, I’m using a foam roller on the wall and driving my forearms up while keeping pressure into the roller.

It switches the serratus anterior on instantly.

Simple and effective.

If you struggle with:

• Shoulder pain during pressing

• Scapula winging

• Neck tightness by the afternoon

• Feeling like your upper back won’t “activate”

…this needs to be in your warm-up.

Strengthen the serratus → improve scapula stability → better shoulder mechanics → less pain.

Give this a go before upper body days, before BJJ, before swimming, or anytime your shoulders feel like they’re sliding around.

Have you noticed scapula winging on yourself?

Anger was my default emotion.

If I couldn't control a situation, I go to anger.

However, nowadays anger is a chance for me to go within.

And instead of reacting, I look at the deeper reason/belief driving this, and I am able to remain calm and respond.

We talk a lot about staying calm, grounded, and “in control”… but anger has its own kind of wisdom.

It shows up as a spotlight on the parts of you that need reviewing like old beliefs, subconscious stories, or areas of life that simply aren’t aligned anymore.

And here’s the interesting part.

Anger sits at a higher frequency than shame, guilt, and fear, according to David Hawkins’ Scale of Consciousness.

That means anger can actually lift you out of stuckness.

So instead of fighting it or judging it… use it.

If you look closely, anger is often the emotional nudge that pushes you into change, new boundaries, new standards, new decisions.

Even if those decisions aren’t perfect, they create movement.

And movement is momentum.

There’s zero benefit in beating yourself up for feeling angry.

It’s just another emotion just like joy, sadness, or excitement.

It’s data. It’s feedback. It’s direction.

Next time anger comes up, try asking:

• What part of me is this pointing to?

• Where am I out of alignment?

• What needs to change?

When you use anger as a tool and not a weapon, it becomes one of your greatest catalysts for growth.

Has your anger ever helped push you in a different direction?

Back pain isn’t random.

It’s patterned, predictable, and fixable.

A couple of weeks ago I had the chance to speak at the GetLinked Prestige Networking Helensvale meetup, and it honestly felt like chatting with a room full of people who had all walked their own journey with pain.

I shared my story about how I became a Holistic Back Pain Specialist, and straight away I could see people nodding.

Everyone knows what it’s like when pain slows you down, messes with your work, or affects your training and life at home.

I ran a simple group activity where I guided everyone through proper breathing mechanics.

It’s always eye-opening for people when they feel how much tension they’re actually holding, especially through the diaphragm, ribs, and lower spine.

Then I did a quick demo with two volunteers who suffer from lower back pain.

With just a few basic tests, the whole room could see exactly why their bodies were compensating.

No guesswork.

No assumptions.

Just clear patterns that explain why pain shows up.

Massive thanks to Kim Muirhead-Holland for inviting me to speak.

I loved the energy in the room and how open everyone was to learning.

If you struggle with back pain, what’s the one thing that frustrates you most about it?

I had an opportunity this year to level up my CHEK training and missed it.

It's that age old saying...

When one door closes, another opens, unless you kick down the original door...something like that

I missed my Integrate Movement Science Level 4 for this year, but what it lead to was an opportunity to broaden my horizon.

I completed ASCA Strength and Conditioning prac in October and have just completed Anatomy Trains 'Structures and Functions' in Melbourne this week.

Hands on, well presented and a great group of people.

What I have learned about manual manipulation of the fascia is something I am able to easily integrate into my practice.

So there you go...an opportunity arose when one fell through.

When has one door closed an another one opened that put your business in a better position?
