The reality of rehab is that it’s hard.

Just when you think you’ve got it cracked, something new gets added to the plan — and it’s back to a mental battle to overcome the doubt in your head.

Tonight, I experienced that first-hand. My hip has been feeling great since surgery in April, and being back running has been a huge step forward. But to keep progressing, I’ve had to start adding more explosive work into my training.

This video shows me attempting hurdle hops for the first time since surgery. I wasn’t acting — I genuinely couldn’t make myself do it at first! I walked away numerous times, reset my brain, and went again.

Ideally, this is where having a physio beside you helps guide you through the fear and rebuild confidence. Doing my own rehab has meant pushing out of my comfort zone and learning to battle the mental side of recovery too.

Remember — you don’t have to go through it alone. If you’re facing those same barriers, we’re here to help you take that next step, both physically and mentally.

They say rehab is a journey — and as a physio, I’ve said that to countless patients. But this year, it was my turn to be on the other side of it!

After a hip injury in June 2024, a misdiagnosis, injections, endless rehab, and several consultants, I finally found the right team. Surgery in April, learning to walk again in May… and today, my longest run since June 2024!

Reflecting on progress has been a huge part of my recovery — accepting the ups and downs, leaning on my support system, and sometimes just focusing on getting through the day.

Even as a physio, knowing the process doesn’t make it easier. There were days of discomfort, frustration, and mental battles — but also moments of progress and hope.

It’s all been worth it — and it’s a reminder that you don’t have to go through rehab alone.

If you’re struggling with an injury, recovering from surgery, or want to reduce your risk of future injuries, get in touch. We can help guide you through your journey too.

The 3 most common mistakes people make when injured”

1️⃣ Hoping it’ll just go away
2️⃣ Only resting and not rebuilding strength
3️⃣ Jumping straight back into sport without a plan
If you recognise one of these, don’t panic — they’re super common, and all fixable.

Rehab done right gets you back faster and reduces the chance of the injury coming back.

DM me if you want a proper plan instead of guesswork.

Rehab isn’t always a straight line — and I know that first-hand.

After more than a year of rehab, surgery, and not being able to do the thing I love most (running), I’ve felt the frustration of being sidelined. Not being part of your sport, missing that outlet to switch off from life — it takes a toll.

14 months after the initial injury, and 4 months after hip surgery, I finally ran outside again. This time it felt different. I had the confidence because I knew my rehab was right, I’d built strength, and I’d taken the time to progress gradually. The first steps brought me to tears — pure relief at feeling closer to me again.

That’s why I started this clinic: to help others reach that same point. To move out of pain, build strength, and return to the things that make you feel like yourself.

If you’re carrying a ni**le or struggling with an injury — I’ve been there, and I can help you through it.

Rest is important when you’re injured — but it’s not the whole answer.

The real foundation of recovery is sleep 💤
Without quality sleep, your body struggles to repair, adapt, and build strength.

But here’s the key ⬇️
✅ Sleep gives your body the chance to heal
✅ Strength training rebuilds resilience
✅ Exercise and movement keep you active and stop things from stiffening up

Too much rest alone can actually slow recovery ❌
The best results come from a balance of rest + sleep + movement + strength.

If you’re not sure what your injury needs right now, that’s exactly what we’re here for.

People often ask why I became a physio 👇

It started when I was a kid, football-mad and sidelined with an injury. Physio got me back on the pitch — and I was hooked.

The journey wasn’t straight forward: Sports Science first, then a Masters in Physiotherapy, graduating in 2019. Since then, I’ve worked in private practice, through Covid, and with clubs like St Johnstone FC, Luton Town FC, and Raith Rovers.

What I noticed along the way was the huge gap between how athletes rehab and how everyday people are treated. The detail, the progressions, the standards — it shouldn’t be different.

That’s why I started Sports Physio Fife 🚀
To bring the same athlete-level care to everyone — whether you’re chasing a football, running your first 5k, or just want to move without pain.
