Hamstring strain & K-Tape 🎽

What it does and what it doesn’t πŸ‘‡

βœ”οΈ May help reduce pain through sensory input
βœ”οΈ Can improve confidence and movement tolerance
βœ”οΈ May assist with swelling and load awareness

❌ Not a fix
❌ Doesn’t speed up healing on its own

Best used alongside progressive loading, strength work, and rehab.

Tape supports movement. Rehab restores tissue πŸ’ͺ

πŸ”΅ Low Back & Pelvic Distraction for Back and Hip Pain πŸ”΅

Persistent low back or hip pain often isn’t just about tight muscles.
Joint compression, altered pelvic mechanics, and reduced space around sensitive structures can all contribute.

πŸ‘‰ Pelvic distraction aims to:
βœ… Reduce joint compression through the lumbar spine and hips
βœ… Improve movement freedom and perceived range of motion
βœ… Decrease pain sensitivity via mechanoreceptor stimulation
βœ… Support better movement patterns post-treatment

This technique is often combined with soft tissue work, joint mobilisations, dry needling, and progressive rehab depending on what your assessment shows.

Pain relief without understanding the cause rarely lasts.
We assess first, then treat what actually matters.

πŸš— Whiplash? Here’s how we approach it.

This is IASTM (Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilisation) - a manual therapy technique used to address soft tissue restrictions following neck injuries, including whiplash.

It can assist with:
βœ”οΈ Reducing myofascial tension
βœ”οΈ Improving range of motion
βœ”οΈ Supporting local blood flow
βœ”οΈ Guiding soft tissue healing through mechanical stimulation

Whiplash symptoms may include:
πŸ”Ή Neck stiffness
πŸ”Ή Headaches
πŸ”Ή Shoulder tension
πŸ”Ή Pain with movement

This technique is applied as part of a structured, evidence-informed rehab plan - not a standalone fix.

Wrist pain… treated at the elbow? πŸ‘€

This is a traction belt elbow mobilisation with movement
Used when wrist pain shows up during gripping or loading, but the wrist itself isn’t the primary pain driver.

πŸ”Ή What this actually does
Joint mobilisation can produce short-term reductions in pain and improvements in movement or grip by influencing the nervous system’s response to load. It does not realign joints or fix tissue damage.

πŸ”Ή Why we use it
Reducing pain temporarily creates a window where the wrist can move and load more comfortably, allowing proper rehabilitation to take place.

πŸ”Ή Important
Hands-on techniques are not the solution on their own. Long-term change comes from progressive loading and movement retraining.

Evidence-informed. No gimmicks. No false claims.

You’ll often see this taping pattern used at elite badminton level 🏸

The thoracic and lumbar spine are exposed to high repeated load during movement, rotation, and overhead actions πŸ”„

This type of taping is commonly used to support proprioceptive awareness and movement quality under fatigue, not to correct posture or restrict motion βŒπŸ§β€β™‚οΈ

Cupping Massage for Plantar Fasciitis

Plantar fasciitis is brutal when it flares. That sharp, morning step pain and tightness through the arch can shut your training down fast.

Cupping is one of the quickest ways to decompress the fascia, improve circulation and ease that stubborn tension through the sole of the foot.

How it helps:

β€’ Reduces pressure through the plantar fascia
β€’ Improves glide between the fascia and intrinsic foot muscles
β€’ Helps settle local inflammation and stiffness
β€’ Helps restore mobility so walking and training feel lighter again

What we focus on:

β€’ Static and dynamic cupping across the plantar fascia

β€’ Calf and Achilles release to reduce pull on the heel

β€’ Mobility and loading drills to reinforce the treatment

If you are dealing with heel pain or tight arches, we can help you get moving again.

🎯 K-Tape for Shoulder Pain | What It Can (and Can’t) Do

Kinesiology tape is often used for shoulder pain, but it’s important to understand how it works and when it’s actually useful πŸ‘‡

🧠 What K-Tape may help with
β€’ Proprioception: improves body awareness around the shoulder
β€’ Pain modulation: gentle sensory input can reduce pain sensitivity
β€’ Movement confidence: may support smoother, less guarded movement
β€’ Swelling control: can assist lymphatic flow in some cases

❌ What it does NOT do
β€’ It does not realign joints
β€’ It does not fix rotator cuff tears
β€’ It does not replace rehab or strength work

πŸ“š What the evidence says
Research suggests K-Tape can provide short-term pain relief and improved movement awareness, particularly when combined with exercise and rehabilitation. On its own, effects are usually small and temporary.

πŸ‹οΈβ€β™‚οΈ Best results come when K-Tape is used as
βœ”οΈ A supplement to rehab
βœ”οΈ A tool to reduce pain during exercise
βœ”οΈ A way to build confidence while restoring strength and control

If shoulder pain is stopping you training, lifting, or sleeping, taping alone isn’t the answer. Assessment, rehab, and loading strategy matter most.
