Rehab & Performance Testing

At Physio &, we are committed to integrating cutting-edge technology into our physiotherapy services to optimise patient outcomes. Our VALD Performance suite, featuring the DynaMo handheld dynamometer and the ForceDecks dual force plate system (shown in the video) provide precise, objective data to inform our assessments, treatment, rehab and performance plans.

Enhancing Patient Care Through Technology
Integrating VALD technology into our practice allows us to:
* Provide Objective Assessments: Accurate measurements of general day to day function, as well as sports specific maximum & plyometric strength, to benchmark results against normative data.
* Detection of Muscle Imbalances and Limb Assymetries: To take the guesswork out of clinical diagnosis, as to why an injury might have occured, or even to help inform the prevention of future injury.
* Monitor Rehabilitation Progress: Track improvements over time to adjust treatment plans accordingly.
* Personalise Treatment Plans: Data-driven insights enable customised therapy approaches for each patient.

By leveraging these advanced tools, Physio & continues to deliver high quality individualised care to our clients.

It’s Our 2nd Birthday!

Its 2 years since I opened the doors of physio &, and what a 2 years it’s been!

I’d like to thank all of the patients, past and present, who have placed their faith in the physiotherapy & rehabilitation model that I so passionately believe in, and who have helped make this a brilliant success by spreading the word of what I try to achieve with my patients here.

I’d also like to thank all of my team, old and new who have embraced the ethos of what physio & represents and have come on this journey with me.

To Adam & Alex who took a punt on a stranger walking his dog in the middle of a pandemic, who had a vision.

I don’t do gushy posts as a rule, but I’m immensely proud of what we have achieved so far here at physio &, and am very excited about what the future holds for us and this brilliant community we serve; there are some exciting plans in the pipeline.

We are thrilled to welcome Niki Georgiou to

Niki is a level 3 sports and remedial massage therapist and a Clinical Pilates teacher.

She has worked alongside physiotherapists in rehab settings in both the NHS and the private sector, and with the added bonus of APPI Pilates training, she has a passion for analysing & restoring movement. Her expert soft tissue therapy skills can help remedy stiff & painful muscles.

Regular massage can reduce your risk of injury, improve your recovery time, and in many instances actually boost your performance.

It is highly effective for people from all walks of life, whether you lift heavy weights in the gym, run, cycle, walk or even if you’re hunched over a laptop working from home.

If you exercise on a regular basis it is a good idea to combine your fitness routine with a regular sports massage.

While regular exercise promotes maintenance and growth of muscle strength, muscles strengthen and stiffen at a similar rate, and it is this stiffness that can lead to niggles and sometimes a more significant injury.

Feel good Thursday 🙌🏻
Thank you for the kind feedback.

Rehab should never be paint by numbers, or feel “off the shelf”.

Exercises should always be specific and targeted for the individual and how they’d like to live their life.

We know that doing physio exercises at home can be a bit dull to say the least, but my philosophy is to ensure only a small number of exercises at any one time, and a clear understanding of the reasoning behind their purpose.

Greater understanding leads to greater success.

Rotation and Rehab Part 1

Rehab and conventional gym training can often neglect the rotational (transverse) plane.

Being able to firstly resist external rotational forces, and secondly produce strength and power through rotation (see part 2) is crucial for the body’s ability to function correctly.

In the examples above, the weight is placed or moved in a way that the body has to resist the rotational forces to properly maintain form.
The benefit of this is to establish functional stability through the enhancement of core strength using the kinetic chains of muscles. This in turn helps to produce stability from the lower body through to the upper body.

1: Single leg Russian Deadlift
2: Single leg partial weight bearing Deadlift with opposite hand kettle clean
3: Anti-rotation loaded lunge
4: Lateral loaded Squat

Advanced Shoulder Stability Exercises

Outdoor sports are on their way back! And this includes tennis.

I’ve put together a few examples of some of my favourite high-level stability exercises I use with tennis players, overhead athletes and anybody that comes to see me with a shoulder related injury.
You don’t have to be a sports person to require excellent shoulder girdle stability & rotator cuff control.

1: Plank to side plank and reach around the chest wall
* Single arm weight bearing external and internal rotation control
* The rotator cuff working hard to move the socket around the ball of the joint

2: 4 point ball stability
* Push into the ball and create small movements
* Progress to knees lifted to challenge the core and posterior & anterior chains further
* A smaller ball such as a football also works here

3: Shoulder and elbow 90/90 control
* Forwards and backwards lunges
* Maintain shoulder position to challenge stability and involve the anterior and posterior oblique slings
* Remember tennis and other racket sports are all about how we move from the floor to hitting the ball, and never should be just about the shoulder and arm

4: Overhead plyometrics
* Rapid generation and deceleration of power in more challenging overhead positions
* Double or single arm
* Short bursts
* Add a weighted medicine ball to progress further

Get in contact if you’re carrying any niggling shoulder injuries, or want to prepare for getting back on the tennis court.

Disc bulges

It can be scary to be told that you have a bulging disc, or degeneration in your back or neck, and whilst in some cases this can be related to the presentation of pain, very often, anatomical changes on MRI scans do not cause pain.

It is absolutely normal, and it is in fact commonplace, to see disc bulges and degenerative changes in people over the age of 40, and are part of the normal ageing process.

The values above are taken from a number of systematic reviews and the percentages represent the number of participants for each study where anatomical changes were found in pain-free individuals.

Patients are given a diagnosis based on their scan results, but as physiotherapists, we often find ourselves in the position of having to explain to patients what words like “degeneration”, “disc prolapse” & “disc bulges” actually mean.

More often than not, this is simply re-framing the words to explain that these are normal changes within the spine that are a consequence of simply getting a bit older, and usually, don’t need to be fixed: surgically or otherwise.

Treat the patient; not the scan.

If you have any questions about your MRI scan, or anything else, please get in touch.

Spreading some Friday love...

It’s always lovely to receive positive feedback from patients. It’s a privilege to be able to continue to help people achieve their musculoskeletal goals, despite current lockdown restrictions.

Strength and control should not be limited to the younger generation.

Tri-Plane Glute Strength

Gluteal strength and control is an integral part of rehab for a lot of different injuries.
This is not isolated specifically to lower back & lower limb injuries, but they also play a significant part in the function of the neck, shoulder and upper limb, and can often be implicated in tennis related injuries for example.

Lots of exercise regimes target the glutes in an up and down fashion (squats/deadlifts/lunges etc), but the glutes are capable of producing large ranges of movement (and resisting external forces) in all 3 of the movement planes of the body.

In the first video the glutes produce hip extension through a Romanian deadlift to kettlebell clean, and a step up with or without shoulder press on the opposite leg.
(Sagittal/Longitudinal plane)

In the second, I’m combining hip extension and external rotation from a lunge position get up. Facing forwards with the front leg across the body, push up and rotate the body to finish facing the same way as the leg. Control the descent to finish where you started. You can do this on the floor, or as you can see in the video you can put your front foot on a step for more murderous muscle soreness the next day 😉
(Transverse/Rotational plane)

In the third video maintain the Russian deadlift position. The shifting of weight from left to right ensures the glutes produce acceleration and deceleration laterally.
(Frontal/Lateral plane)

You shouldn’t ever feel strain in your lower back when performing these exercises.

As ever if you have any questions about an injury or your current training regime feel free to get in touch.
