Episode 117: Tom Swales on AMT, Performance, Wellness and Personal Growth

Dear listeners, In this episode of the Primary Medicine Podcast, we sit down with Tom Swales—physiotherapist, performance expert, and founder of the Advanced Movement Therapist Certification. Tom shares lessons from more than two decades working with elite athletes and everyday patients, and reflects on how a life-threatening infection in 2023 transformed his perspective on resilience, recovery, and patient care. We explore how his AMT approach integrates strength training with rehabilitation, why movement literacy matters for all patients—not just athletes—and where integrated performance medicine is headed. A thoughtful, practical conversation about bouncing back, redefining performance, and building more human-centered care. Let’s dive right in! Listen to the podcast here. Cheers, Dr. Dimitre The post Episode 117: Tom Swales on AMT, Performance, Wellness and Personal Growth appeared first on Primary Medicine Podcast.
