Hamstring tendinopathies are one of the most common conditions we see in the clinic!

Some of the signs and symptoms include:

1. Deep dull ache around the proximal hamstring / buttock
2. Warming up pattern - gradual worsening with running with pain afterwards
3. Worse on hill and speed work when running
4. Pain when sitting too long
5. Pain when stretching

🙆‍♂️ If this is something you are struggling with, get it assessed and we can come up with a treatment plan to get you back to your best!

🏃‍♂️ The winter months are a great time of year to get on top of any lingering issues before race season starts.

BTS with Jess 💪
4 weeks ago, Jess came in with left hip and lower back pain that had been holding her back from full strongman training.

After a few sessions and consistent rehab, she’s now flying! 🚀
✅ Minimal pain
✅ Back to full training
✅ Big performance gains - single leg jump up 37%, drop jump up 35%!

Sometimes injury gives us the chance to find the weak links - and fix them. Now the focus shifts to making Jess an even better all-round athlete. 👊

⭐️ “I’ve been seeing John at Your Physio for a couple of months for migraine/neck pain that has been consistent for nearly two years. Since receiving treatment from John I’ve noticed a significant improvement in symptoms. He made me very comfortable from the first appointment, taking a thorough history of the issue before starting any treatments. At every stage he explains the therapies before commencing and takes the time to address any concerns. I highly recommend John to anyone struggling with migraine/headaches.”

Helping people move, feel, and live better - that’s what we’re here for 💪

We all want results …. fast
But your body doesn’t work like that.

The first few weeks? Your brain’s learning.
The next few? Your muscles start growing.

Real change takes weeks of consistency - not one workout, not one rehab session.

Professional Sleep Coach Emmett has been based out of the clinic now for a few months and is getting great results!👏
Check out this review from one of his patients:

“For the last 5 years, I have found it so hard to get to sleep 7 nights a week, Sunday nights where the worst.

But everything changed, when I made an appointment with Emmett “The Adult Sleep Coach”. Within 4-5 weeks, I can now say I sleep great 5-6 nights a week. I finally understood the root cause of my sleep issues so no more guessing.

I understand my sleep better, the personal sleep plan, tools, support and sleep strategies have given me my sleep back. I am way more active now, I don’t feel exhausted as much, I feel better and I even look better”.

Which muscles really power your running? 🏃‍♂️

When you run, your body produces forces many times greater than bodyweight - and it’s not just your quads doing the work.

🔑 Key contributors:
• Soleus & Achilles – handle up to 6–7x bodyweight (huge role in propulsion)

•Patellar tendon – around 5.5x bodyweight

• Glutes & hamstrings – key for hip extension & stability

• Quads – still important, but not the only players

👉 Takeaway: Running performance isn’t just “lungs and heart” - it’s also about force production & load tolerance in these muscle groups. Strong calves, hamstrings, and glutes = better running economy and less injury risk.

💡 If you’re a runner, don’t just focus on mileage. Add targeted strength work to build the muscles that carry you forward.
