Douglas
has combined a training in traditional sports medicine with a comprehensive study
of current holistic approaches to the body, healing, and movement. The focus of
his work has been the development of innovative and personalized methods that
establish a process of positive change in posture, structure, and form
and the way people view and use their bodies. (See Radiant
Running Philosophy to learn more.)
In
addition to applying his methods to a wide field of activities, twelve years of
intensive endurance training and racing has given him an understanding of the
specific problems associated with running. Out of this he has developed a system
of sports movement that has a significant impact on injury rehabilitation, injury
prevention, form efficiency and performance.
In his private practice and in workshops he has
helped hundreds of athletes of all levels and ages to overcome body based
injury and performance limitations. This is achieved by helping people
to contact, concentrate and focus their healing energies through a unique
blend of movement, body use and mental focus. This approach has had success
in a wide range of clinical applications, rehabilitating many orthopedic
injuries as well as structurally related health problems such as arthritis,
indigestion, learning disabilities, exercised induced asthma, and balance.
