IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT 📣

From October I will be closing the doors for the foreseeable. This is due to accepting a new full-time employed role that I am really excited about.

It’s been amazing dipping my toe in the waters of being self employed and running my own private practice over the last 5 months. However I feel my new role will help me continue developing throughout my career.

Huge thanks to Mighty Fitness Durham and all of their members for having me. Top gym and amazing community.

My diary is open as normal until 29th September for new and follow up appointments.

* those who I have treated previously or referred you can always contact me for info/advice after this date if needed.

I’ll be the first to admit that the ‘wait and see’ approach is a pretty good first option. But it may not always be the best one.

So when should you see a physiotherapist? 🤔

Here are just a couple of situations where seeing a physiotherapist might be a good idea. 💡

Hamstring rehabilitation can be tricky as re-injury rates are high, ranging between 13.9-63.3% in some studies involving athletes. 📈

So it is vital that rehabilitation not only prepares you to return to your activity, but also limits the risk of future injury as much as possible. ⚽️🏃🏻‍♀️🏋🏽🎾

We are strong on exercise rehabilitation as the number one treatment for many musculoskeletal conditions due to the enormous body of evidence supporting its positive effects. ✅

The best thing you can do for yourself after injury is be compliant with the prescribed exercises.

Alternative Medicine?

Medical Acupuncture or Dry Needling is seen as a complementary or alternative medicine, meaning it is not offered by mainstream health services.

This patient fractured his calcaneus (heel bone) 8 weeks ago and had been immobilised for 5 weeks.

He has been able to return to work as a roofer but has been struggling recently with some heel and achilles discomfort, with a feeling of tightness in the lower calf after a long day on his feet at work.

Very simple treatment: 2 needles in the gastoc and 1 needle in the soleus for 5 minutes with some gentle stimulation improved the mobility in his ankle by 35%, leaving it equal to his non-affected side.

We followed this up with lots of joint mobilisations and loading of the calf/Achilles complex.

This is one of the techniques we can use to improve quality and quantity of movement, and when clinically reasoned and used in combination with exercise it can provide some very valuable and prompt effects.

If you would like to discuss which treatment modalities we offer and how they could benefit you please reach out 😄
