Haere Mai Willkommen Welcome!

Powerx2 emerged from a passion for brain and body health and many years’ experience working in research and clinical practice. It also emerged out of a frustration with a healthcare system that often does not recognise the interconnectedness of mental and physical health – a relic stemming from the view of dualism that most Western healthcare systems are based on. 

Someone living with low mood, depression or anxiety, for example, is most likely to attend talking therapy or be prescribed drugs, with limited recognition of the power of physical activity on mood. Someone living with osteoarthritis may undergo exercise therapy, but the recognition of the impact of years of pain on mood and social connections is unlikely to be addressed as part of that.

So, an idea was born. Powerx2 works with people in a way that recognises the importance of, and powerful relationship between, body and brain health.
