Tim
Brabants - Olympic Gold
We are proud to support Tim Brabants,
previous world champion and Olympic Champion in the K1 1000m.
Tim's back in training and is preparing himself for the long road to the next Olympics in London 2012.
BREAKING NEWS!
August 2010 - Kayak World Championships - Poland
Tim succeeded to win a silver medal in the K1 1000m. This race represented the climax of Tim's return season after taking 18 months off following the Olympics in Beijing. Together with fourth place in the K1 500m this proves that Tim is well on the way to
success in 2012.
The Chiropractor – integral part of his team
With a gold medal and two bronze medals from the Olympics in Sydney and Beijing, Tim is the most successful paddler Great Britain has ever seen. He has access to many health professionals including physiotherapists, strength and conditioning coaches, massage therapists, nutritionists, sports psychologists and other coaches.
However Tim likes to keep it simple and only spends time with people from the team who he knows makes a difference to his performance. So the Chiropractor is at the top of the list, then his massage therapist, and everything else is looked after by his long time coach Eric Farrell.
A discussion with Tim at a performance meeting recently we were talking about the gold medal cake - how many different slices are important in making my overall performance a gold medal effort. " I see Chiropractic as a very important slice in my cake!" - and he does love cake!
Keep an eye out for Tim, he's in every week through the season, good luck in the lead up to 2012.

Beijing Success
Once the closing ceremony in Beijing was over and the boats were all packed
up, Tim sent us this from the
flight home!

We're going to have to
celebrate hard when I get back! You've been a great
part in helping me achieve this Olympic dream. Look
forward to seeing you all when I get back. Writing this
e-mail from the comfort of my first class seat on the
BA flight home. I am a lucky boy! See you soon, Tim. |
Tim Brabants and PCC
It was in 2006 that Tim began treatment at Putney Chiropractic
after years of punishing his body with the most unbelievable
training program that would make even the most active amongst
us cringe. You don’t want to know how much he bench
presses.
We have corrected years of postural challenges from being
hunched over the paddles and this has created extra flexibility,
reach and an end result of being more powerful and improved
recovery.
W e are proud to include Tim among our clients and friends.
