When you realize a “massage table” is just a state of mind 😂

A short snippet from the Return to Sport phase — where rehab meets performance.

At this point, the focus shifts from controlled rehab drills to game-realistic demands.

Key principles to guide this phase:

⚡ Specificity
⚡ Speed & reactivity
⚡ Decision-making under pressure
⚡ Fatigue resilience
⚡ Controlled chaos

The goal: bridge the gap between rehab and true game readiness.

AND never forget the fun — confidence grows when training feels like the game 🏉🔥

This combo works deeply on painful, stiff or sore areas by:

🔥 Heat therapy — increases blood circulation, relaxes tight muscles, and improves tissue elasticity. It helps to reduce stiffness and prepare the muscles for better recovery.

🌀 Cupping therapy — creates gentle suction that lifts the tissue, releasing muscle tension and reducing pain caused by tightness or overuse. It also bring in fresh, oxygenated blood for faster healing.

Together, they:
✅ Decrease pain and inflammation
✅ Improve range of motion
✅ Support faster muscle regeneration
✅ Promote deep relaxation

Perfect for areas that feel tight, overworked, or sore after training or injury 💪⚡️

A winning game and very first match as a Sport Rehabilitator for a Rugby team today – and thankfully no serious injuries! 🏉

Recently, I’ve been spending a lot of time around rugby, including my experience at the Women’s Rugby World Cup.

So I can officially confirm that I’m starting a permanent role with Widnes RUFC.

A new challenge, a different working environment – but don't worry... 😏 I’m still running my own business on the side from Monday - Thursday.

As you know, it’s hard to keep me in one place for too long 😉
Personal growth and gaining new experiences are always a big part of my journey 👩‍🎓.

👩‍👧Running is better together 🏃‍♀️💨

For me it’s training, for her it’s fun – but for both of us it’s quality time outdoors!

🏃 Healthy habits – they learn that movement and activity are a normal part of life.

🧠 Mental well-being – fresh air and exercise boost mood, reduce stress, and help focus.

🌟 Role modeling – kids copy what they see; watching you enjoy running inspires them to be active too.

🚴‍♀️ Why cycling is more than just a ride ? 💚

1️⃣ Proprioception & Neuromuscular Coordination

Cycling constantly challenges your balance, engaging your nervous system and improving body awareness — great for recovery after injuries.

2️⃣ Joint-Friendly Strengthening

Unlike running, cycling puts minimal impact on your joints while still strengthening the muscles in your legs, glutes, and core — perfect for people with joint issues.

3️⃣ Boosts Circulation in the Legs

The rhythmic pedaling motion improves blood and lymphatic flow, helping reduce swelling and supporting recovery.

💛 Not just a workout — it’s therapy on two wheels!

📚To my amazing teachers and mentors — thank you for sharing your knowledge, pushing me to grow, and believing in me. You shaped not just my skills, but my confidence and passion for this profession.
