Re-activ8
Your Body Mind Life
My Mission
To empower you to take your health into your own hands. To help you restore the health and happiness you deserve.
A Labour of Love
Having worked in various roles within the fitness industry since 1996, I formed Re-activ8 in the spring of 2004.
In the early days, Re-activ8 was a Personal Training and Sports Therapy company; I started out as a ‘body mechanic’ just looking at physical components and trying to fix them. Then, in 2007 I realised, through my own experiences, how physical health is greatly affected by our mental, emotional and spiritual wellbeing. As a result, Re-activ8 evolved into the Holistic Health Coaching business that it is today.
Re-activ8 has grown as I’ve grown; It’s a testament to my own health and happiness journey.
What is holistic health coaching?
- Holistic means 'whole'
The word ‘Holistic’ is often misunderstood, leading people to believe it refers to various “new age” therapies. However, in truth, holistic simply means “whole.”
Holistic health coaching involves considering all aspects of your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual life when addressing your health. Each part contributes to your overall well-being and happiness.
The human body is an integrated system of systems; nothing works in isolation. For example, issues in the digestive system can affect the musculoskeletal system, and our emotions can affect our organs. This means that decisions about diet, rest, and movement can have a wide range of effects on our health and happiness.
- We're complex creatures with basic needs
Health isn’t really as complicated as we make it out to be.
There are six basic foundations that, when balanced in our daily lives, result in us being healthy.

- Your body wants to be healthy
Over 90% of all diseases are caused by our lifestyle choices, and they can be reversed by choosing to do things differently. Your body wants to be healthy; it just needs the right conditions.
If we return to basics, detoxify our body, and provide proper conditions in terms of how we think, breathe, eat, drink, move, and sleep, we can naturally reverse most health issues.
By focusing on the foundations, we can create health instead of fighting disease.
- You are not your symptoms
Your symptoms are just your body telling you that you are out of balance.
Modern medicine is fantastic at dealing with acute injuries, but rarely if ever resolves chronic health conditions.
Medical healthcare acts as though the health problems we face are only and always in the place where the pain is. Unfortunately, this approach ends up fixating on symptoms and NOT the real cause. The pain we experience often isn’t where the root of the problem is, and this is why a holistic approach to health is so important.
Your pain is your teacher, it comes to teach you that something in your life needs to change.
- You are unique
Rather than just treating your symptoms, I coach you as the unique individual that you are. In other words, I don’t treat the disease but rather coach the person who is experiencing the dis-ease.
I will empower you to take your health and happiness into your own hands, so that you understand the power you have to affect your own life.
I will help you create habits that support you in your dreams… to build a body and mind strong enough to manage daily stressors and energised enough to drive you forward with your life’s goals.
TAKE YOUR POWER BACK!
- Create Health
Whether it’s Anxiety, Arthritis, Back pain, Diabetes, Digestive issues, Fibromyalgia, Skin problems or any number of other chronic health conditions, the answer can only come from addressing the underlying cause and giving your body the foundations it needs to create health.
By uncovering the imbalances at the root cause of your condition, and laying solid foundations of health you will take your life into your own hands. You will regain your natural vitality, have confidence in your body, and be able to enjoy the pain-free life that you deserve, without resorting to fad diets, excessive exercise or health destroying medications.
