Who actually enjoys foam rolling?
Are you just doing it because someone said you should?
It’s a whole lot of hassle is what it is…

Knots don’t exist and they’re definitely not getting “ironed out” but a foam roller

What IS happening is a change in how your nervous system processes sensation, sensitising and moving the cutaneous nerves in the skin which can temporarily reduce pain and improve movement.

Long term change still comes from progressive loading and exercise.

If you’ve been told to stop lifting to “protect your back”, you’re not broken.

Your spine is designed to move and adapt.
Avoidance often fuels fear - gradual, well-dosed movement builds resilience.

Your body isn’t fragile.

A lot of common MSK advice is based on fear, not evidence.
Understanding pain, movement, and strength helps you train and rehab with confidence - not caution.

“Load” isn’t just weight in the gym.

Load is everything your body has to deal with - training. Work, stress, and sleep.
Pain often shows up when load exceeds capacity, not because something is broken.

Understanding load, changes how you approach rehab and training.

Therapist / Physio ≠ Just hands on treatment.

The real work happens when you understand your body and start loading it confidently.

Gym words aren’t scary, misuse is.

Progression, fatigue and volume are tools.
When used properly, they build stronger, more resilient bodies.

Pain does not always mean injury.
Pain is your body’s alarm system - not a damage detector.

In clinic, the focus should be on understanding pain, calming the system, and building confidence through movement - not just chasing “damage”.

Clinical MSK and S&C jargon can sound intimidating - but your body isn’t fragile.

Education + Movement = Confidence.

For years inflammation has been painted with a negative brush, and whilst inflammation for long periods of time (chronic) can be bad; when it comes to “sports injuries” it’s natural.

This inflammation is part of the healing process is natural and should be encouraged! We should respect this.

Avoid: Anti-inflammatories and ice
Aim to: Keep active where possible and compress

It’s the ni**les that are ongoing that can be the most frustrating…
In Sophie’s case, she decided to do something about it!

A keen runner, but battling an Achilles issue, we managed to rectify the issue and give her the tools to manage on her own 💪

It’s January, you’ve gone for a run and that pain has come back in your Achilles…
Sound familiar?

Got that ni**le at the bottom of your calf when you run? 🏃🏼‍♀️

Likelihood is you’ve got a tendinopathy - and it’s completely treatable. Not by rest, but by managing your training volume.

- Stop running until your symptoms subside day to day
- Strengthen your calf, achilles and lower body
- Re-build your running back in slowly building up the time and distance till you’re happy
If this doesn’t work or stops working then get yourself booked in to see a rehab specialist!

Patience and careful management should mean your training is minimally affected.
