After 33 years of clinical practice — and one life-changing accident of his own — Colin Clarey now teaches people how to lead their own recovery from pain, injury and burnout.

For three decades, Colin treated bodies — from Olympic athletes to people who'd been in pain for years. Over time, he became increasingly interested in what happened beyond the treatment room — in people's nervous systems, beliefs, behaviours and relationship with their own body. These factors often played an important role in how people navigated recovery.
Then his own accident put him on the other side of the table.
That's why Colin now works as a recovery mentor: not to fix people, but to teach them how to lead their own way back.
Don't take our word for it. This is one down-regulation practice from the Self-Led Recovery Method: breathe in for 4, out for 6. Six rounds. Notice what your shoulders do.
That's a taste of one tool. The full toolkit lives in From Tension to Truth — and in Colin's 1:1 mentoring.
A framework built from 33 years of watching what actually separates recovery from stuckness.
Teach your body it's safe again, so pain and tension have permission to release. Vagal tone, breath, and down-regulation skills.
Rebuild trust in your body through movement and interoception — feeling what's actually happening, not what fear predicts.
Stop waiting to be fixed. Become the one steering your recovery — with a mentor beside you, not above you.
Every path starts the same way — a free 15-minute call to find out what fits.
You talk, Colin listens. Where are you, and what have you already tried?
If mentoring is right for you, Colin will say so. If it's not, he'll tell you that too — and point you somewhere better.
No pressure on the call, no follow-up chase. The next step is always yours to take.
