THE RMA TEAM

RMA was established on the Isle of Wight in 2014. Since then, the clinic has grown from strength to strength and is now situated in a fantastic setting in central Newport. Jake has always had an aptitude for helping others and a real passion for health and fitness, so it was always a straightforward decision to practice in this profession. Jake frequently enjoys attending workshops and seminars to make sure his knowledge and practical skills are kept up to date, ensuring his patients are receiving the best quality of care required to recover and achieve results.

Jake has had the pleasure of working for Official Sports Services with both the All Blacks and the Wallabies during the Rugby World Cup 2015. More recently, Jake has worked with teams at the Women's Cricket World Cup, and also with both the England Rugby Union squad and the South African Cricket team. The highlight of Jake’s career to date without a doubt is the setup of the RMA clinic. Having the opportunity to help others overcome persistent pain, turn negativity into positivity, correct bad movement habits, and to help people rebuild from injuries to achieve their goals is a job that Jake will never get tired of.
