A total pain in the neck.

Neck pain is incredibly common but usually doesn’t stem from a serious problem.

Good neck function is essential. It allows us 360 degree vision, helps protect our spinal cord and nerves that transmit messages from our brain to the rest of our body.

Neck pain or stiffness can also be involved in symptoms of headaches, dizziness and nausea. Working from home, has led to a sharp increase in the number patients attending with neck pain and headaches.

Poor working setup is often involved. We can assess and advise on ways to overcome some of these issues, as well as providing sensible exercises and manual therapy to help treat your symptoms.

When things aren’t working as intended in our necks, there can be significant and often painful consequences.

We’ll get you back on track.

The back is an incredibly strong and stable structure consisting of muscles, ligaments, bones, blood vessels and nerves. It supports our body with strength and flexibility, as well as protecting the spinal cord and nerve roots.

60-80% of the population will experience back pain at some point in their lifetime and it’s one of the most common reasons people take time off work or stop exercising. It can be very worrying and we understand that many people can be unsure of how to manage the pain and get back to fitness. Everyone is different and so is your back pain. How we help you, depends on loads of different things. How you move, how you can’t move, how fit you were before and how fit you want to be after injury. We’ll help you get back on track and achieve your goals

Head2Toe physiotherapists feel that empowerment and motivation is an imperative aspect of rehabilitation when trying to return you back to your normal swimming schedule. Education on how your body should or could be working and how you could be training out of the water, is an important part of rehabilitation. Therefore, we aim to work closely with you and your swimming coaches, to maximise performance and help prevent and manage future injuries

After analysing your data, we will make a structured, highly personalised exercise programme to help build strength, power and flexibility to improve performance and keep you swimming pain free.

It is important to get into a routine of exercise as soon as possible, pre or perimenopausal. Sometimes women may not have been physically active since childhood, or fallen out of that routine whilst having children. Certainly it has been found that exercising helps with many menopause symptoms, possibly most importantly around managing stress in our lives.

To highlight some of the barriers to exercise, it has been found that women have a higher disparity in access to physical activity compared to men. The reasons are multiple. For the most part, it can be due to women being the main caregivers, alongside a full or part time career. The time in life that most women are going through menopause, their caregiving duties may increase with caring for ageing parents as well as their own family, limiting the time available for exercise. If you can maintain a routine during this time it will be important for future health, as we know the impact weight bearing exercise or resistance training can have on our bone health.

Another barrier could be to do with safety. Unfortunately, an issue in our society is that women may not feel safe exercising outdoors. My own friends have certainly experienced harassment whilst out running, which definitely reduced their confidence to exercise for a while. The gym setting can also be intimidating and potentially not always a safe space for women either. We are lucky, we live in a relatively safe area and there are excellent women supporting women, and other mixed providers locally for women to exercise safely.
