Charles King MCSP, SRP - Charles King qualified in 1985 from University Hospital of Wales, Cardiff as a Remedial Gymnast and Recreational Therapist and became a Chartered Physiotherapist the same year when the two societies merged. He worked at Rotherham District General Hospital for 9 years setting up the Neurological rehabilitation out-patient service. He has been in private practice since 1994 specialising in patients with Neurological disorders including Stroke, Multiple Sclerosis, Head Injury, Parkinson’s Disease, Spinal Cord Injury as well as other movement disorders associated with Chronic back and neck conditions.He developed the treatment concept – Neuromuscular Energising Therapy (NET) – over a 15 year period and has been teaching nationally and internationally to other professionals for 10 years. NET is an inter-active movement therapy in which manual handling techniques are used to improve the patients posture and function and activate the body’s balance reactions. The aim is to boost patients energy and create economical and efficient movement patterns which in turn can relieve pain. NET has also been shown to improve physical performance through dynamic postural realignment.“NET has been more influential in developing my facilitatory handling skills than all my formal Bobath training put together – basic course, four advanced courses, and 2 years of Bobath Tutor Trainee modules” Jon Graham, Clinical Director Physiofunction.
