Nell Mead

Nell Mead is a pioneering British physiotherapist with over 20 years of experience, including a decade serving in the British Army. Now based in central London, Nell has developed an innovative approach to health and performance that goes beyond traditional physiotherapy.

Drawing on her extensive clinical experience and training in the Integrated Systems Model, Nell created the Health & Performance Pyramid - a comprehensive framework for optimising movement, reducing pain, and enhancing athletic performance. This groundbreaking model forms the backbone of her book "How To Be Your Own Physio: The Pyramid Approach to Pain-Free Movement and Peak Performance".

Nell's unique approach looks at the body as an interconnected system, addressing not just symptoms but root causes. She combines rigorous scientific understanding with practical, accessible advice, helping readers take control of their own health journey.

Known for her ability to solve complex cases that have stumped other practitioners, Nell has worked with everyone from stressed city professionals to world-class athletes. Her mission is to empower people with the knowledge and tools to move better, feel better, and perform at their best.

When not treating patients or writing, Nell can be found exploring London's parks with her rescue dog Feta or indulging her passion for tennis - a sport that has led her to treating the Cyprus Davis Cup team and working on Jamie Murray's Battle of the Brits.

With "How To Be Your Own Physio", Nell brings her expertise and engaging teaching style to readers worldwide, offering a fresh perspective on health and movement that's both scientifically grounded and refreshingly practical.
