How To Run And Walk Without Pain & How T...

Dr Rangan Chatterjee: GP & Author
About this episode

Today, I am delighted to welcome back my dear friend, Helen Hall, for her 3rd appearance on my podcast. 

 

Helen is a movement therapist, running coach and pain expert with over 40 years of experience and, she is one of the best coaches in any modality, that I have ever come across. With a lifelong passion for analysing posture and movement - her clients include elite athletes - whether they be cyclists, runners or premier league footballers - but also ordinary amateurs - regular, everyday people who simply want to walk or run without pain.

 

Due to her incredible results, Helen is often booked up in her clinic for months, so, to help more people, she first shared her movement philosophy in her wonderful book ‘Even With Your Shoes On’. Since then, she has created a series of online courses for professionals but also for member of the public who simply want to move better and without pain. In fact, she has just launched her brand-new course: ‘A Troubleshooting Checklist For Walkers And Runners: The 6 Most Common Fundamental Movement Patterns That Seem To Need Help.’ This is her shortest and most practical course yet and listeners of my podcast, can claim 20% off until the end of October, using the discount code FBLM20. You can see all details about Helen, her book and her online courses at her website: www.helen-hall.co.uk 

 

Helen’s first two appearances on my podcast have already transformed countless lives and in this third conversation, we continue where we left off. We touch on crucially important themes from the first two conversations - like the importance of our head position and our foot health -  but we also explore many new topics, including why walking is a super-power that affects everything from our gut health to our lymphatic system, how cultural differences influence our approach to balance and posture,  how exactly we can start to become experts in our own bodies and we also do a deep dive into stress incontinence for women - something that is extremely common and not spoken about enough. Helen shares her approach to tackling it, especially when conventional approaches have failed.

 

I have been working with Helen for over 5 years now and as a result, I am moving better today than I ever have before. She is someone with a high level of expertise and many decades of real world experience, but I think what I love the most about Helen, is just how passionate she is about helping everyone move more efficiently, without pain. I hope you enjoy listening.
