Afternoon everyone,

I’m on the beg! 😂

If you’ve had a recent appointment with me or ongoing sessions would you do me a massive favour? If you get 5 minutes could you leave me a review following this link.

As you know businesses are built on reviews and word of mouth. Your reviews would massively help a small business.

All the love

Rotator cuff tendinopathy is a common overuse injury from repetitive overhead movements, that includes but not exclusive to: swimming, tennis, volleyball, or weightlifting.

💥 Tendons become inflamed and painful, and in rare cases, a tear can occur.
🎯 Most cases happen in adults 50+ due to age-related tendon changes.
👍🏻 Good news: guided exercise, physiotherapy, and education usually help, surgery is rarely needed.

✅ Pain ≠ damage. Staying active and rehab-guided is safe and effective.

Painful. Overused. Recoverable. 💪

A frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) occurs when the shoulder capsule becomes inflamed, thickened, and tight, restricting movement.

💥Most cases develop gradually, often after shoulder injury, surgery, or sometimes with no clear cause.

🎯Frozen shoulder is more common in women, affecting around 2–5% of adults, particularly between ages 40–60.

💥Symptoms include a dull, aching pain, often worse at night, with a progressive loss of range of motion.

👍🏻The good news? Frozen shoulder is self-limiting and usually improves with conservative care, education, and guided movement. Recovery outcomes are also similar between male and females.

🎯The condition typically progresses through three stages: freezing, frozen, and thawing.

💥Most people experience gradual recovery of pain and movement over time, even if progress feels slow.

✅Remember: pain ≠ damage. Stiffness and sensitivity are symptom driven, not signs of a truly “frozen” joint. Movement and rehab remain safe and effective.

Painful. Stiff. Recoverable. 💪

A lumbar disc herniation happens when the soft centre of a spinal disc pushes out.

💥Most are caused by age-related changes, as discs lose hydration and strength over time, though trauma can also contribute.

🎯Lumbar disc herniations are common, affecting about 1–5% of adults at any given time.

💥Many herniations are asymptomatic, studies show a large portion of adults have disc bulges on MRI without any pain.

👍🏻The good news? Most herniations improve naturally with conservative care, education, movement, and graded exercises. Surgery is rarely needed unless red-flag symptoms appear.

🎯Research shows most symptomatic LDHs improve over time without surgery:

💥70–90% of patients improve within 6–12 weeks with conservative care.

✅Remember: pain ≠ damage. Your nervous system often amplifies sensitivity, not structural harm. Staying active, guided by rehab, is safe and effective.

Common. Treatable. Recoverable. 💪

And breath, that’s my Final exam done and dusted.

Physiotherapy MSc completed.

1000 hours of placement

It’s been a helluva 2 years, it’s been a hard slog trying to juggle life, family, a business and my education all at the tender age of 46 😂.
