Welcome to the Heart of Holistic Rehabilitation
Our team, a collective of certified coaches, is the embodiment of passion and dedication to holistic health, where healing and wellbeing are not just practiced but lived.
Each of us have personally navigated journeys through trauma and recovery, making us not only practitioners but also companions on the path to wellness.
Our unity in 2022 was sparked by a shared dream: to profoundly impact health outcomes and introduce a comprehensive solution for lower back and joint pain — a solution that traditional methods have overlooked.
We recognised a common challenge: a widespread misunderstanding of injuries and a plethora of ‘bandaid’ short term fixes.
At Holistic Rehabilitation, we break the cycle by integrating a spectrum of healing modalities, ensuring that every facet of your being is nurtured and rebalanced.
Our mission is to offer more than just relief; we aim to empower you with a holistic strategy for a life liberated from pain, by treating you as the multifaceted individual you are, we unveil the potential for profound, lasting wellness.
Step into our circle of care, where your journey is honoured, your healing is holistic, and your potential for wellness is unlimited. Together, let’s redefine healing.
Dan Henderson
Over the past 17 years I’ve devoted my life to guiding individuals towards achieving their rehabilitation, strength and mobility dreams.
My passion stems from the immense satisfaction I find in easing people’s daily discomforts — something I deeply relate to due to my own sports injuries.
Understanding the frustration of a compromised quality of life, I’m driven by a mission to restore your vitality so you can get back doing the activities you love to do!
I’m committed to empowering our community with knowledge about holistic pain management and self healing practices. By fostering a supportive environment, I aim to inspire our clients to embrace a growth mindset, cultivating healthier habits for a resilient mind and body.
The truth is, too many people accept living with pain as part of their daily lives.
You are reading this for one reason – you need a long term solution!
