"I've recently had a series of physio sessions on a recurring shoulder injury. I've had some physio and injections on it previously but never really addressed the root cause.

From the initial consultation and assessment I was confident that this time would be different. I was given a clear explanation of the issues and how we would work together to reduce the pain and increase the strength of the muscle group.

Libby reviewed and assessed my progress and really listened carefully to my feedback on the exercises then with a combination of sports massage and adapting my exercise program she helped me understand what I needed to do to successfully rehab my shoulder.

Thank you so much Libby for giving me the tools to finally resolve the underlying issue."

Our practitioners are always striving to enhance their skills and knowledge! 🌟

Recently, Maia, Ruby and Eleanor attended a CPD event with Ramsey Health Care. The event focused on MSK education and provided valuable insights into some of our local consultants and how their services can benefit our clients.

By learning the pathway and what kind of interventions they can offer, and understanding best practise when it comes to surgical and injection options, we are able to forge positive relationships and make the best decisions and possible recommendations and referrals for our clients.

Continuous learning is key to providing the best care possible! 🚀

"With a master’s degree in Physiotherapy from the University of Cumbria and an undergraduate degree in Sport and Exercise Science from Northumbria University. Plus, my background as a personal trainer, combined with additional qualifications in sports massage, I aim to deliver a high standard of assessment and rehabilitation in the clinic.

As a physiotherapist, I am highly equipped to support clients with pain management and injury recovery. I am passionate about getting people real results and believe that rehab should be tailored to suit the individual and their lifestyle. Outside of the clinic, I am a dedicated gym enthusiast and also train in mixed martial arts.

Chris has been working with Laura at Wrightington to address ongoing left shoulder pain caused by rotator cuff dysfunction. 🤕🏥

His rehabilitation has focused on targeted strengthening and progressive loading of the key shoulder muscles, alongside exercises to improve stability and control. This approach not only helps reduce pain, but also restores function — especially important for one of Chris’s favourite hobbies, golf. 🏌️‍♂️💪

Chris has already made fantastic progress, building strength and confidence week by week. As he continues to improve, we’re expecting even bigger gains in both his performance and day-to-day function. 📈👏

Great work, Chris — keep it up! 💪🏌️‍♂️

On 27th September, what started as a cycling holiday ended in a serious crash for Colin.

His injuries included:
🔵 Hemothorax (bleeding into the chest)
🔵 Broken clavicle requiring reconstructive surgery with a titanium implant
🔵 Scapula fractured in 3–4 places
🔵 6 displaced rib fractures + 1 additional fractured rib
🔵 Broken finger (repaired with screws)

He spent 9 days in ICU and 4 days on the ward, with surgery on 4th October.
Rehab with Libby initially focused on breathing, pain management and gentle mobility. With rib fractures and significant shoulder trauma, early progress was about restoring basic movement safely and protecting the surgical repair.

As healing progressed, we built things back step by step:
✔️ Restoring shoulder mobility
✔️ Rebuilding scapular control
✔️ Strengthening the rotator cuff and upper limb
✔️ Improving thoracic mobility
✔️ Gradual cardiovascular reconditioning

His recovery has genuinely been outstanding. He now has practically full range of movement, near full strength, and reports minimal discomfort. Considering the extent of the injuries, the progress he’s made over the past few months has been exceptional. 🤩

We’re now transitioning into return-to-bike preparation, and he’s not far away from getting back where he belongs. ☺️💪

Peter is a 78-year-old, keen golfer and tennis player 🎾⛳, who had been struggling with Achilles pain. Initially, the tendon was very inflamed, red, thick, and painful. Peter was struggling to weight bear due to the pain, and simple short walks on holiday were becoming problematic 😟.

Laura advised on an exercise plan to stretch and load the tendon, and now Peter is currently reporting an 85% improvement in symptoms 🎉. Peter’s main takeaway is how important it is to progressively load the tendon, and he will continue to follow this protocol until he returns to sport 💪.
