Owen's enthusiasm and dedication to the pursuit of knowledge leads to a never ending list of qualifications, courses and the study of countless philosophies and theories. As a result this web site is already out of date! Owen is very likely to have started another line of inquiry or study to further his understanding. Below is an explanation of some of the major milestones in his education.  

Owen's work has greatly benefited from his diverse range of experiences and qualifications. After completing a sports science degree at Bangor University Owen spent a year working as a fitness instructor and personal trainer. He then went back to university to pursue a master’s diploma in sports psychology. A year in San Antonio, Texas saw him playing and coaching basketball at a high level. Returning to Britain, Owen took up an anatomy and physiology lecturer position at Esher Sixth Form College. He has successfully completed his massage qualifications at the London School of Sports Massage and is a member of the Institute of Sport and Remedial Massage. Owen also gained the prestigious title of structural integrator for the KMI school where he studied under Thomas Myers, James Earls, Lou Benson and Lauren Christman amongst others. He is a member of the International Association of Structural Integrators.  

He continues to learn and regularly attends courses and lectures. Between courses he actively keeps up to date with the latest research and ideas. Owen has guest lectured at a number of universities with an enthusiasm and insight that is infectious with his students.

Having moved from London Owen is now working near the delightful Peak District. He works with a wide variety of people, from elite sports people to sedentary office workers, and encountered and dealt with numerous different injuries and issues.
