Description

In this episode, I sit down with Tom Swales—a renowned physiotherapist, movement optimist, and the mind behind TAP (Tom Swales Athletic Performance)—to unpack what true healing, strength, and performance really look like in the modern world.

With over 20 years of clinical experience, Tom’s approach blends science, soul, and storytelling, turning physical therapy into a conversation about resilience, freedom, and human potential. In this episode, we dive into:

  • Why movement is the language of healing—and how most rehab misses the mark

  • How pain isn’t the enemy, but a signal worth decoding

  • Tom’s journey from burnout to purpose, and what he learned about building longevity from the inside out

  • The difference between treating injury and teaching the body to thrive

  • Why TAP is more than a clinic—it’s a philosophy

Whether you're an athlete, a coach, or someone simply looking to move and feel better, this is a conversation that’ll change the way you see your body—and your potential.
