Kinect Health

A life changing experience.
I started seeing Luke 3 years ago for a long lasting knee problem. It took some time and a lot of work to solve it but Luke’s passionate and dedicated approach changed my way of training and thought me how to move efficiently.
I have always been a sporty person and I realised that Luke’s exercises and techniques could add so much more to my favourite activities and my everyday life. I decided to seeing him weekly because I don’t want just to be pain free, I want to learn how to improve my strength and my motion ability. And Luke is not just a fantastic professional, he really cares and wants you to reach your goals and feel better.
Luke is also fantastic with kids. My daughter Martina has been seeing him regularly for about a year to improve her mobility and strength for ballet, whereas my other daughter Matilde saw him for a back injury. They both had a great experience.
I would recommend Kinetic Health to anyone, not just to get rid of their pain but, more importantly, to learn how to move efficiently and avoid the pain. It is a life changing experience, the sooner the better!!

I found Kinetic Health searching for a functional movement screen after years of back pain which had plagued me for most of my 20s preventing me from playing sport or generally moving without a lot of pain. Having seen many different practitioners from physio therapists to osteopaths I sought a better understanding of movement patterns and body structure as a whole, hoping I could figure out more about my pain and dysfunction.

I booked my first session with Luke over year ago and I'm now regularly playing sport pain free, but more importantly to me, with every session I learn more about how to move efficiently. Luke is passionate and obviously dedicated to helping people understand function that they can take back into their everyday lives. I've gone beyond hoping just to be pain free and I'm now excited about improving my strength and speed in sport something that I'd given up on a long time ago.

I highly recommend Kinetic Health to anyone who are not only recovering from injury but are looking to educate themselves about how to move better.

Amazing! I am a new person! I have had nothing but issues with my shoulder since my surgery in May 2014. Surgery went well but the after care was... useless. I put on a tonne of weight and could hardly move due to the constant pain. Sometimes the pain was so bad, I couldn’t even wear a coat..... until I found Neil. I’ve seen him 4 times and I’m a different person. I am now training comfortably and pain free, 3 days a week, lifting weights I never thought I’d ever lift. I am also not walking around in pain every single day. Neil, thank you so much! I would recommend these guys to anyone, but more importantly, Neil is now looking after my Mum.
I’d also like to add, my partner is one of Lukes clients. He has a terrible historic knee injury, and again Luke has been amazing. He works alongside my partner and his trainer to ensure he can continue to train safely. I would not think twice about recommending these guys!

I’ve been seeing Neil at Kinect Health since April 2018 and I would highly recommend him and Kinect. I have suffered with neck, shoulder and upper back pain for 7 years. I have tried NHS physio, private physio, special back care gyms, acupuncture, osteopathy – the works. I initially went to Kinect to try laser therapy as a new option and then I meet Neil and within 10 minutes of talking to him I knew he was what I’d been looking for – his knowledge of physiology, pain, neuroscience and other factors that can help pain like diet and mindfulness is amazing! He is a holistic practitioner.

I’ve been seeing him weekly for a mixture of laser therapy, physical therapy and exercises. Since that time my pain has decreased significantly and I’m working towards eradicating it forever! Since seeing Neil I’ve been able to go from part time work to full time work and I’m starting to feel more control over life again. I’ve also got some old hobbies back like running.

Neil is great in that he is always coming up with new exercises, techniques and ideas to help improve your life and pain. He keeps it engaging and fun – and he’s a laugh too! But the best thing is he really cares – he is taking this journey with me, he wants me to get better and I thank him for that.

I’ve suffered from excruciating pain in my hips for six years, attended tens of physio appointments and have had therapy with scores of practitioners. Not one of them have helped take the edge off of the pain. Luke has taken that pain away in three sessions over a six week period, allowing me to become more mobile than I was told I ever could be.

Luke hasn’t just fixed a problem, he has helped me grow in confidence. I now know I am able to run again, play football and live the life a twenty three year old man should be able to live - pain free!

A session with Luke isn’t just therapy, it’s an educational experience that allows you to understand the root cause of your problems.

I couldn’t recommend him highly enough, he’s changed my life and there’s still so much more progress to be made.

When I first saw Luke a year ago with long-standing pain in my feet I was not very optimistic. As a doctor I had already tried the conventional treatment options and specialists but his approach was new to me and exciting. I have always trained in gyms and enjoy Pilates and swimming so adding some more exercises wasn't too alarming. However I had not previously paid much attention to the workings of the obscure tiny muscles and bones in my feet which I was now learning to work.
Luke's knowledge and attention to the detailed anatomy and mechanics of the foot was a revelation. It was a relief to work with him as he understood my symptoms and signs and gave me the hope that had been lacking before.
Since then through fortnightly appointments and a demanding schedule of training I have gained strength and control and an awareness of my foot. The pain has diminished, although I am not yet entirely discomfort-free and can suffer relapses usually through my over-enthusiasm and going past my "functional limit".
Luke has also helped me with the mindset which causes the magnification of pain through a pain-anxiety feedback mechanism and by addressing this I can understand and control the level of perceived pain.
I am impatient to continue my training with him and address other aspects of movement for a more healthy body and mind.

I have been seeing Luke for over five years as an Elite Masters Athlete. I have suffered lots of ups and downs and Luke has always been awesome in understanding my problems and helping me get through them. I would definitely say that Luke owns my gold medals because it’s down to him that my body performs. He has endless patience because I take ages to grab things sometimes. He’s helped my confidence no end by telling me to ‘go out there and run’.
A huge thank you Luke and to all my friends I have recommended because you have sorted them too.

I have been Working with Luke Summers since August. As a Injury rehab specialist myself, I seeked Luke out to both learn from him and work on my own problems (hip pain). Having had hip pain for 9 years, it can be very limiting as I like to take part in sports that ask a lot of my hips (cycling, Brazilian Jiu-jitsu etc). Luke has been tremendous in highlighting what I am missing in my rehab to ensure I am getting the best return on investment. My hips have felt the best they've ever felt and that is after only 6 sessions together, in the same time I have learnt an awful lot more about the human body and he has pointed me towards some great resources to further my learning in this field. As a clinician and as someone who wants to improve their function, I have benefited greatly with working with Luke and I highly recommend him. If you need to improve your function and take your understanding of the human body to the next level, a specialist of this calibre is worth his weight in gold.
