This is why I love being a Physio!

Ray came into the clinic a couple of months ago with an acute episode of Achilles Tendinopathy which started whilst running.

His goal was to complete the Melbourne marathon with his son (and one of my good friends) Damo 🇦🇺

Damo moved to Australia back in 2018 and started his own running journey - he has now completed 10 marathons and counting 👀 this provided the perfect opportunity to tick one off the bucket list and to complete a marathon together.

Ray wasn’t letting the Achilles injury put a stop to that! We quickly got to work:

✔️ Modified training load
✔️ Temporary running gait modifications
✔️ Clear goal setting
✔️ Structured rehab programme with progressive loading

Massive well done to both of you 👏🏼 smashed it! Enjoy the rest of the trip 🦘

I’m running the Great North Run this Sunday!

As many of you know, my Dad’s partner Sharon sadly passed away recently after a battle with Lung cancer. I’m running this week in memory of her.

Sharon was loved by everyone she met and she had a special relationship with her four daughters (Kirsty, Tamara, Shannon and Courtney) and her grandchildren (Tommy, Maya, Connor and Violet).

Being as selfless as Sharon was, she asked anyone who wanted to raise money for charity to donate to the Deaf Children’s Charity.

This charity was especially close to her heart as they have helped her granddaughter Maya throughout her life.

If you can spare donations of any value they would be greatly appreciated 🙏🏼 The just-giving page is saved in my bio.

Good luck to everyone else running on Sunday and I hope you all raise money for great causes 💙

P.S big thanks to Amanda for the late race number 🤣 yet another year with no ballot place!

Very emotional week as we wish Jack the best of luck in his next venture!

Jack has worked at the clinic for 5 years and has been a key part of the success of JFP!

It’s been a pleasure to watch him develop into the Physio he is today and we know he’ll continue to strive in his future role!
