So many people I see in clinic tell me that when they are in pain they have to stop and rest. And while a short period or relative rest may be helpful in the short term, the most important thing is attempting to find the balance between tissue tolerance and activity.

Prolonged rest can lead to deconditioning and worsening of symptoms when attempting to return to activity, increasing the likelihood of more rest, further deconditioning etc. Not only this, but prolonged avoidance of hobbies and activities can affect mood and mental health, which we know can turn the dial up on someone's pain experience.

Matt Ross Physiotherapy takes a detailed history to understand your wants and needs, provides a comprehensive assessment to identify your current tolerance and then formulate a plan to get you back to the things you enjoy.

Your MRI doesn’t tell your story it only whispers a few lines.
Imaging shows structure, not strength.
It can’t measure resilience, adaptation, or how your body feels and functions.

Far too many surgeries are done because of what’s seen on a screen
tiny “abnormalities” that are often just normal signs of living.
Age-appropriate changes, not emergencies.

Before you rush to fix what may not be broken,
start with movement, education, and a real conversation.
You are not your MRI.
You are more than an image
you are function, healing, and potential in motion

Sound familiar?

Lots of people I see for various conditions are often told by friends, family and sometimes other health professionals that if they are in pain they need to rest / stop exercising etc. While a period of relative rest for a short period may be helpful in the acute phases, long periods of withdrawal from activity is often not helpful.

Not only can this lead to deconditioning and potential reoccurrence of symptoms sooner as activity starts again, it can also lead to stress and frustration which can turn the dial up on someone's pain experience.

Movement more than often aids in someones recovery, however it is attempt to find the right balance for what the affect tissues can tolerate and modify activity accordingly. Then, alongside a graded rehabilitation programme, attempting to improve tissue tolerance and function allowing you to get back to the things you enjoy most.

So if this sounds like you, perhaps you have tried treatment before and felt as though it hasn't helped, or you are after a second opinion, do contact me directly through facebook, by calling 07814 717577 or booking directly through the website www.mattrossphysiotherapy.co.uk
