I've known John for years through work colleagues. I knew he was a great physiotherapist and wanted to get his perspective on health. It was great hearing his perspective having worked with high level athletes as to what contributed most to their performance. I found him to be open, honest, real and I came away inspired, wiser and hopeful. More and more research and evidence is pointing to the fact that mental health may be one of the biggest and most important components in physical wellbeing and performance.
