Complete Body Approach

My Story…

Thanks for stopping by. My name is Fin McKenna-Fox & I am the creator of Complete Body Approach, a Holistic Therapy & Movement Clinic based in Perth WA.

In 2009, I graduated with a First Class Honors Degree in Sports & Exercise Rehabilitation and I wanted to do nothing but work with the general public & athletes in treatment and rehabilitation of injuries. I knew there was a lot more to treatment & rehabilitation than what conventional physiotherapy taught us as I had experienced a number of issues and injuries that had deeper roots than my presenting conditions. This was the opening of the mind that I needed to start learning more about the intrinsic workings of our bodies. After working in Ireland for 2 & ½ years my partner and I began travelling and finally arrived in Sydney where I successfully got a part-time internship with the Sydney Swans S & C coach. While working there, I also started working as a PT & rehab specialist in a gym, and to be honest, I got so much more enjoyment out of helping the general public with their pain & restrictions over athletes who have huge medical teams waiting on them hand & foot. Over the coming 6 months I began exploring more ways of treating clients and exploring the effects that nutrition, stress and lifestyle had on injuries, recovery and performance.

After travelling around Australia for the next 4 months, living out of a camper van the vision of Complete Body Approach grew and grew. Within 4 months of arriving in Perth, I had my own clinic & an ever-growing client base. I continued to develop my skills, improve my knowledge base and PLAY with my own body working out all aspects of movement, nutrition, lifestyle, spirituality and overall wellbeing. I believe that I am on a never-ending journey working with the beauty of the human body and am very excited to see where this journey brings me and the people that I can empower along the way. I believe that the issues, restrictions and limitations in my own body are the keys that have unlocked my growth & development and allowed me to help and empower so many others.

Awareness is key, and my passion is teaching people how to tune into their own body and listen to what it is telling them. Only then can true healing occur.

My Philosophy…

Movement Is Life, Life Is Movement

I believe in a Holistic approach to wellness. We need to tune into our bodies & listen to what they are trying to tell us. Once we do this, we will be guided in the directions that are needed.

My three principles of Eat, Play, Live are the basics that I relate everything to. When we nourish our body with the right foods, daily movements & a loving outlook on life, we can be truly happy.

In this fast paced world too many people are looking for a quick fix and are not willing to face up to the reality of what their body is trying to tell them. We choose to ignore the emotions behind out poor dietary choices, we choose convenience and style over movement, and we are too preoccupied with technology to see the beauty of the world around us.

I believe that everyone needs to learn how to regain balance in life, unplug from the modern world, get your feet dirty in the earth and allow yourself to be free like a kid again.

Diseases like cancer don’t just grow over night and similarly a repetitive strain injury is not a freak occurrence… The more we tune into our movement potential and ourselves, the healthier we will be.

Testimonials

Ebony- Performer, Movement & Rehab (@blacksparklyunicorn )

“I was unsure what to expect from a movement therapist when I booked in, however, I am happy that I did! Seeing Finn has helped me overcome injuries and improve my physical wellbeing more than I thought possible. I was impressed with his depth of knowledge of the human body and how it works, as well as his logical approach to treatment. A session starts with a thorough assessment followed by hands on treatment such as fascial release which makes you feel 100x better straight away. He also gives practical advice and targeted exercises to do at home. What I also really appreciated was the time he took to explain what was going on with my body and why the exercises/ therapy would help the situation and then personally follow up and see how I was going after each session. I can’t recommend Finn highly enough if you want to overcome an injury or just get your body moving better!”

Darlene – Entertainer,  Movement & Rehab

“I have had chronic pain for many years from a whiplash injury. Over the last few years I have been on a journey to heal myself naturally and to avoid medication for pain management. I recently started working with Fin at Complete Body Approach and I have had such a great shift in my mind and body – the results are almost immediate. Fin takes the time to look at the whole body and not just where the pain is – he has a very holistic approach and understands anatomy. His approach and therapy is unique but it really works. With a mix of hands-on treatments and a specific but simple exercise programme – I have had great results in such a short time. I highly recommend Complete Body Approach for your ongoing wellbeing.”

Mike G. Shoulder Rehab

“I have been seeing physio’s and chiropractors intermittently for 15 years since my shoulder injury, and whilst there has definitely been some benefit in the treatment, the upside in progress tends to diminish over time. Fin’s whole (complete) body approach looks at correcting imbalances in how I move overall, while also looking to strengthen and stabilise my shoulder through movement. My daily regime is enjoyable,  doesn’t take long, and I can see visible improvement in both my range of movement and muscle mass in a relatively short period of time.”

Mark, Pro State Volleyball Player

“My name is Mark van Winsen, I’m 27 years old and have been playing sport my whole life. Ever since high school I have always had an abnormal gait and felt my general movement patterns caused me a lot of discomfort. I started to accept the fact I was too old to change my biomechanics, however after seeing Fin for three months I have experienced massive improvements in my movement. I feel stronger while exercising and my joint pain has improved dramatically. I really like that the therapy doesn’t involve physical manipulation to realign your body. Instead, Fin looks at changing your movement patterns with simple daily  exercises so that you train your body to work and move more efficiently.”

Yasmin Eve, Movement & Rehab

“After just one session with the very talented @yasmin_eve we have begun the process of unlocking her movements and opening her body up to reach her full potential. “I’ve been doing the exercises at least 3 times everyday since you sent them… Seeing and feeling a huge change already; particularly in exercises finally feeling my left glute activate, generally feeling more aligned.”
