FRANCOIS PADRELL - Holistic Personal Training and Sports Massage

Working with people, my passion is to improve your life by teaching you how to be stronger, move safer, and balance body and mind. Whether recovering from injury, training for a particular sport, or simply wanting to be stronger, fitter and more resilient, I will work with you to reach your full physical potential.

What I Do
I assess your current condition and design a program specifically for you. Understanding how your body works, where it is overcompensating or not functioning well, I can provide quick results for people who have suffered for years because of an incorrect or incomplete diagnosis. I use physical hands-on methods, massage and muscular manipulation, to treat injury and encourage your body to work as it should. I also use physical excercises and strength training to improve your fitness, resilience and posture.

Who I Work With
I work with everyone, but especially people who want to age well and are ready to improve their fitness, from 40+ to 70s and beyond! People who struggle with chronic pain or injury, and have resigned themselves to never being as fit as they were in younger years. People who spend a lot of time in the gym but are not seeing the results they want, or even worse are experiencing pain from incorrect techniques. I am happy to work with anyone who wants to improve their strength and fitness, from any starting point.

People Say
Francois is a superb motivational PT. His sessions are challenging but fun. His intelligent and effective approach to rehabilitation, physical training and functional development reflect a genuine interest in human physiology and a relentless quest to learn more about how the body works. Stick with him; you’ll be happy you did.

I went to Francois because of knee problems. I could not run very far without pain, and I couldn’t cycle without compression bandages. Now I cycle 50k at a time, and I’m even playing 5-a-side football again.
Training with Francois has given me back all the benefits from the sports I love doing. More than that has given me a much clearer understanding of my own body – how important the core is to everything, how to strengthen it, and how to exercise and rehab yourself at home between the personal sessions. It’s been life-changing!

Why it Works
Working with me you will get the results you're looking for. I have a deep understanding of how the body works. Looking at how the various parts of us are interconnected, I can trace your pain or chronic condition to its source. Then, when we design the treatment it’s applied to the root cause and not a secondary symptom.

What Makes Me Unique
In my 30’s I was in a serious accident. A truck hit me on my pushbike. In a coma for 3-wks and on crutches for 6-mths, I experienced physical trauma, pain, and the fear that I would never be able to do the things I loved again. This experience motivated me to learn as much as I could about physical therapies and the human body. Training under a number of instructors, trainers and coaches I am now as fit as I ever was. I do this to help others.
