Training for a marathon? Here’s what the research actually says:

📊 30–50% of runners training for a marathon will pick up an injury before race day.
📊 Most injuries happen in the last 6–8 weeks — when mileage peaks.
📊 The knee is the most common site (hello runner’s knee), followed by calf, Achilles and plantar fascia issues.
📊 Previous injury = your biggest risk factor.

And here’s the truth…

It’s usually not one dramatic moment.
It’s load creep.
Too much, too soon, too tired.

At Bode Clinic, we see it every single marathon block — especially from runners who ignore the early “niggles”.

✔️ Slight calf tightness
✔️ Mild knee ache after long runs
✔️ That foot pain that “warms up” after 2 miles

That’s not normal. That’s your body negotiating.

The runners who get to the start line strong aren’t the toughest.
They’re the ones who manage load, recover properly, and get ahead of issues early.

If you’re in a marathon block right now in Manchester or Salford, this is your reminder:

Don’t wait until you can’t run.

Posture and shoulder tightness… honestly, so normal 🙃
But also? So frustrating.

Long hours at a desk, stress, scrolling, training, parenting — it all adds up. And while stretching one tight spot can feel good for 5 minutes, it rarely fixes the bigger picture.

That’s where tailor-made mobility programmes come in 💡
Not generic exercises. Not “do this stretch twice a day and hope for the best.”
But movement that actually suits your body, your habits, and your goals.

Also… can we talk about the balance wedge for a second?
Ali absolutely loves using it when running through mobility and shoulder work — it adds challenge, control, and wakes up all those sneaky stabilisers that posture work needs 👏

If you haven’t tried it yet… honestly, where have you been? 😅

Your shoulders (and posture) will thank you.

Lymphoedema after cancer treatment is more common than people realise — especially when lymph nodes have been removed — and it can have a huge impact on comfort, confidence, and day-to-day life.

At Bode Clinic, we’re proud to offer one of the most effective approaches to lymphoedema management using a combination of Lymphatouch therapy and specialist hands-on physiotherapy.

✨ Why Lymphatouch?
Very few clinics have access to this technology — but it’s a game changer. Lymphatouch uses gentle negative pressure to stimulate lymphatic flow, reduce swelling, soften tight tissue and improve mobility. Patients often tell us they feel lighter, more comfortable, and experience instant relief after treatment.

🤲 Paired with expert manual therapy, we’re able to reduce swelling, ease pain, and improve movement far more effectively than traditional methods alone.

We can make such a difference — even in a single session.

If lymphoedema is affecting your recovery or quality of life, we’re here to help you feel better, move better, and regain confidence.
📍 Based in Manchester & Salford

Movement isn’t just about smashing a HIIT class or running a marathon. It doesn’t have to be intense, complicated or time-consuming. Your body and mind simply need regular movement to stay healthy, strong and grounded — and it’s never too late to start.

Think simple. Think enjoyable. Think everyday movement:
• Walking
• Climbing
• Badminton
• Padel
• Swimming
• Yoga or Pilates
• Cycling
• Dancing in your kitchen
• Gardening
• Strength training with light weights
• A quick stretch session
• Football with friends
• A gentle jog
• Skipping

It all counts — every step, stretch and swing.

Movement supports your health in so many ways:
✨ Improves joint health by keeping them lubricated and mobile
❤️ Boosts heart function and supports long-term cardiovascular health
🌬️ Strengthens lung function and improves overall stamina
😊 Releases endorphins that lift mood, reduce stress and help you feel more energised

The goal isn’t perfection.
The goal is to move.
And remember — starting small is still starting.

Scar treatment is important for far more than just cosmetic reasons. Whether the scar is from surgery, injury, pregnancy or a sporting incident, proper treatment can make a huge difference in how your body feels and functions long-term. Here’s why:

1. Scars can restrict movement

Scar tissue isn’t as flexible as normal skin. If it forms around joints, muscles or fascia, it can cause:
• Tightness
• Reduced range of movement
• Discomfort during everyday activities or exercise

This is especially relevant after C-sections, perineal tears, abdominal surgery or sporting injuries.

2. It can lead to pain and sensitivity

Poorly healed scars often become:
• Tender
• Numb or overly sensitive
• Painful when stretched

This can contribute to pelvic pain postpartum, back pain, or persistent discomfort around surgical sites.

3. Scars can affect muscle activation

Deep scars (e.g., C-sections) can disrupt the normal function of:
• Core muscles
• Pelvic floor
• Glutes
This can affect posture, lifting, running and day-to-day strength.

4. Early treatment improves healing

Working on a scar early (when safe to do so) can help:
• Improve mobility of the tissue
• Reduce thickness and adhesions
• Speed up recovery
• Improve cosmetic appearance

5. It helps prevent long-term issues

Untreated scar tissue can contribute to problems years later, such as:
• Ongoing pain
• Poor core strength
• Pelvic floor dysfunction
• Recurrent injuries

6. Boosts confidence and body comfort

Feeling comfortable in your skin has a big emotional impact. Soft, mobile, less-visible scars often help people feel better in their bodies—especially after birth or major surgery.
We are so grateful we have tools from , which we combine with acupuncture, hands on manual techniques and tailor made exercises to make the ultimate treatment for YOU! This is the best treatment possible for your scars - get in touch today if you want to learn more
