What is Movement Therapy?
Personal Training, Physiotherapy, and Online Coaching
Movement Therapy is a unique approach to physical training that views the human body from all angles, combining knowledge and techniques from multiple disciplines.
What does this mean?
Through my training programs and consultations, I design personalised exercise plans that draw from a wide range of physical disciplines—including weightlifting, physiotherapy, bodybuilding, yoga, and more. By blending the benefits of these diverse methods, I’ve developed a comprehensive system to help people overcome many of the physiological challenges faced in the 21st century. Whether the goal is rehabilitation, improved mobility, strength, or overall well-being, my approach is designed to help the body move and function at its best.
In addition to working with the general population, I am deeply committed to supporting children and individuals with additional needs. I hold a QQI Level 5 Certificate in Community Health and Disability in Ireland, which qualifies me to work with autistic children and others with physical or neurological conditions. My programs are carefully adapted to the unique abilities, challenges, and sensory needs of each child.
My goal is to create a safe, engaging, and empowering environment where every client—regardless of ability—can experience the benefits of movement and build confidence in their bodies.
For more information on this, see both Mobility in the 21st Century and The Silver Method.
By incorporating a multidisciplinary approach to the body, I help my clients address numerous issues such as;
Mobility Issues (Ankles, Hips, Thoracic Spine, Gleno-humeral)
Stability Issues (Ankles, Knee,
Lumbar Spine, Scapula)
Strength
Muscle Development
Weight-loss
Osteoporosis / Arthritis
Prenatal & Postnatal Training
Joint Replacement / Surgery - Prehab & Rehab (Hip/Knee/Elbow)
Walking Gait / Flat Feet / Collapsed Arches
Confidence
Alongside many other issues.

Welcome to the Movement. Welcome to Movement Therapy.
Hello, my name is Simon Griffin.
I have over 15 years of physical training experience, which has consisted of everything from yoga & calisthenics, to body building & olympic weightlifting.
I have always enjoyed my physicality and being active, but naturally I got bored of these methods of training once I hit the point of diminished return in each discipline.
So I branched out, with each branch leading me down a further path of physical challenges and knowledge.
However, by experiencing so many different forms of physical training, I have been able to formulate my own approach to physical training, namely Movement Therapy.
Movement Therapy is a holistic, grounded and above all, individualised approach to training that engages with physicality from all directions and disciplines. For more about my thoughts on this, have a read of my ethos; The Silver Method.
