Two weeks back at work since Christmas & New Year… who’s feeling it? 😅

If your neck and back are stiff after a more relaxed (or sofa-based) break, you’re not alone. A few gentle stretches can help ease tension, improve movement, and get your body feeling more comfortable again.

For even better results, pair your stretching with a deep tissue or sports massage — helping to release built-up tension, improve mobility, and support recovery as you get back into routine.

Small movements (and a little hands-on help) make a big difference.

🎾➡️🎾 Padel Elbow: The New Tennis Elbow?

Padel is booming — and so are elbow injuries. We’re seeing a growing number of players with lateral epicondylitis, now commonly called “Padel Elbow.”

⚠️ What causes it?
• Repetitive wrist and forearm loading
• Poor grip size or technique
• Sudden increase in playing time
• Inadequate recovery

🤕 Common symptoms:
• Pain on the outside of the elbow
• Weak grip strength
• Discomfort when lifting or hitting shots

🧠 The good news:
Early physiotherapy can reduce pain, improve strength, and get you back on court faster — without making it worse.

If your elbow is talking to you after Padel, don’t ignore it.
📍 Book an assessment with our physio team and play pain-free again. Assessments are currently 20% off for during our January Promotion :)
