Karl H Pryor – Soft Tissue Therapist, MSc, Dip. MDN, MFHT, NASM CES, AFHEA

I’m a Level 4, Soft Tissue Therapist and have been involved in the health and fitness industry since 2015. In this time, I’ve been fortunate to have worked with a broad range of clients and patients, assisting with their training, rehabilitation and recovery through movement and manual therapies.

I have an MSc in Sport and Exercise Science, specialising in Strength, Conditioning and Rehabilitation, and am a NASM (National Academy of Sports Medicine) Corrective Exercise Specialist. This allows me to assess posture and biomechanical movement, in view of designing and implementing effective treatment programmes to address, rehabilitate and correct imbalances or dysfunctions identified.

Further to this I have also completed a Level 3 Diploma in Exercise Referral, providing me with the knowledge to support patients suffering from a variety of conditions with their recovery and rehabilitation through movement.

Adding to my skills as a soft tissue therapist, I am also an Advanced Dry Needling, Myofascial Dry Cupping and Kinesio Taping practitioner. Through use of a blend of these treatment modalities, I can select and provide effective, personalised means of tissue release, repair and rehabilitation on an individual basis.

Alongside my clinical practice, I provide delivery, support and assessment on both Personal Training and Sports Massage vocational qualifications.  Through my experience within both Further and Higher Education settings as a Sports Scientist, I have also achieved accreditation with Advance HE as an Associate Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (AFHEA).
