Three weeks before their marathon, they thought it was over.

But it wasn’t an injury, it was overload.

This is common issue I see in marathon training when mileage increases faster than your body can adapt.

With the right support, we can focused on adjusting your load, targeted rehab and better movement awareness

Most running injuries build over time and can be managed early.

If something feels off, please don’t ignore it. Pop me a message and come and see me 💙

Excited to be expanding the rider performance side of the clinic with **EQ Bands training** coming soon 🐎

EQ Bands are designed to improve **rider stability, balance and communication with your horse**, making them suitable for riders of all levels, from grassroots to competitive.

By combining EQ Bands, HumanTrak movement analysis and off horse strength and mobility training, we can build a clearer picture of how your body moves in the saddle and how that impacts your horse’s way of going.

This approach allows us to:

💙 Improve rider position and control

💙Enhance balance and coordination

💙Reduce compensations that affect performance

💙Support both horse and rider as a team

Rider performance clinics and 1:1 sessions will be launching soon, with packages to follow.

If you’re looking to improve your riding through biomechanics and structured training, this is for you.

Keep an eye out for more details and follow along so you don’t miss the announcement 📢

Did you know this? 👀

Up to 60% of a horse’s bodyweight is loaded through the forelimbs.

Without structured programming and recovery, repetitive strain can lead to tissue breakdown, stiffness, and reduced performance.

To help your horses mobility we work together on an equine rehabilitation approach.

Mobility should always be paired with stability and strength to prevent overload and support long term joint health.

If your horse feels stiff or uneven, a structured assessment and tailored programme can make a significant difference.

Not every day in business, rehab, horses or training is smooth 🥹

There are obstacles. Plans change and things don’t always go the way you imagined.

But reminding myself that every small action I take today, every client I help, every session I show up to, every decision I make, strengthens the bigger vision that I am building.

Progress isn’t loud and it’s not linear but what it does come down to is consistency.

Sometimes I’m just rolling with the punches and trusting that if my purpose is strong enough, I will get where I’m meant to be.

Rehab works the same way, small, intentional inputs over time create lasting change.

What’s one small step you’re taking this week towards your bigger goal? 👇

Have you noticed resistance in your horses trot or canter?

If your horse struggles to lift through their back, shows resistance in trot or canter, or displays behavioural changes under saddle, it may not be a training issue.

One potential cause is kissing spines a veterinary diagnosed condition involving reduced space between the dorsal spinous processes of the thoracic spine.

This can affect spinal mobility, core engagement and overall performance

Equine therapy plays a supportive role alongside veterinary care.

Building strength and stability allows the horse to better support their spine and improve performance safely.

If you’re ready to support your horse through equine therapy, DM me ‘EQUINE’ to book a session 🐎💙

Building a sustainable business isn’t about quick marketing wins its about this..

In 2016, one client who attended clinic for sports rehabilitation offered her horse as a case study while I was completing my equine therapy training 🐎

That single opportunity led to organic referrals across multiple yards and ultimately helped grow the equine side of my practice.

Over time, consistent results and word of mouth recommendations opened doors into higher performance environments, including work within Paralympic sport.

Nearly a decade later, that original client still attends clinic because she trust me, my results and the relationships we’ve built.

If you’re looking for sports rehabilitation or equine performance therapy rooted in experience and trust, DM me to book your session 💌

Training with hypermobility, you need to try these exercises

If you’re naturally flexible but constantly dealing with lower back pain, pelvic instability, or a persistent feeling of tightness, hypermobility may be part of the picture.

Hypermobility allows joints to move beyond a typical range of motion.

While this can look impressive in strength training or CrossFit, it can also create instability if muscular control and spinal segmentation are lacking.

If you’re hypermobile and struggling with recurring niggles, your programme should prioritise control before range.

Want some evidence based advice on hypermobility comment ‘MOBILITY’ to book in for a consultation 🏋🏻
