Run harder for longer
Faster between efforts

Diastasis Re**us Abdominis (DRAM) is the widening of the linea alba resulting in separation of the re**us abdominis muscles. It commonly occurs during pregnancy and may persist postnatally.

While often viewed as a cosmetic concern, DRAM is primarily a functional issue. Reduced tension through the abdominal wall can impact:

• Trunk stability and load transfer
• Intra-abdominal pressure management
• Lumbar spine support
• Pelvic floor function

Common clinical presentations may include:
• Abdominal doming or coning with exertion
• Perceived core weakness
• Lumbopelvic discomfort
• Difficulty returning to higher-level exercise

Here is some more info on what to expect

Understanding sports recovery protocols can make a significant difference in how quickly athletes return to training after injury.
Physio's at Bend + Mend help manage acute pain while supporting the body's natural recovery process. We focus on the critical early stages after injury, when proper intervention can influence both healing timelines and the quality of tissue repair.
Recent research in sports physiotherapy emphasises the importance of structured recovery that addresses inflammation, pain management, and progressive loading.
Key considerations in any sports recovery protocol include: timing of intervention, appropriate rest periods balanced with strategic movement, and monitoring progress markers to adjust treatment as needed.
Worth noting: recovery isn't just about managing symptoms, it's about creating optimal conditions for tissue healing while maintaining as much function as possible throughout the process.

Sitting all day shouldn’t come with neck pain, tight hips, or a sore back.
If desk life is taking a toll on your posture, it might be time to improve your movement habits.

At Bend + Mend, we use evidence-based Pilates to correct spinal alignment, reduce chronic tension, and build strength that actually carries over to your workday.

Foot pain is incredibly common — and it can make even simple daily tasks feel uncomfortable.
Here are three conditions we treat:
• Plantarfasciitis – often caused by increased load, tight muscles, or footwear that doesn’t support your foot
• Morton’s Neuroma – irritation of the nerves in the forefoot, commonly linked to footwear, loading, or bunions
• Achilles Tendinopathy – inflammation of the tendon that connects your calf to your heel
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, our physios can help identify the cause and create a personalised plan to get you moving comfortably again.

Long hours at a desk don’t have to mean chronic neck, back, or postural pain.
