😊I'm pleased to introduce one of my new 2026 sponsored athletes at Strength and Therapy – Ben Forster.

🏉Ben is a power forward currently playing professional rugby league with Halifax Panthers in the Championship.

🏉He has already built up solid experience, having spent four years competing in League 1 before earning his place at this level. That journey reflects exactly what Strength and Therapy is about: progression, resilience and continuous development.

🙌Ben will be coming into the clinic for targeted maintenance, recovery and performance support so he can handle the physical demands of elite rugby league – from collisions and repeat efforts to week‑in, week‑out fixtures.

🙌My role is to keep him moving well, reduce injury risk and help him turn up ready to perform at his best.

It is a privilege to support committed athletes like Ben who are grafting hard in the professional game.

I am looking forward to being part of his journey this season and seeing the results of that work on the pitch.

☎️If you are an athlete wanting the same level of care and support, get in touch and let’s build a plan around your sport, schedule and long‑term goals.

Two simple images, one powerful message: low back pain manifests in different movement patterns, and understanding yours is the first step toward changing it.

Image A shows a flexion-sensititive pattern – the person is bending their lower back, the kind of pain that often feels worse with sitting, slumping, bending, or lifting and may ease a little when you stand up or walk around. I

Image B shows an extension‑sensitive pattern – the person is leaning backwards with hands on the lumbar spine, the type of pain that can flare with standing, walking, arching the back or repeatedly “swaying” the pelvis forwards, and may ease when you sit or gently curl forwards.

Neither pattern automatically equals a “disc problem” or “worn out joints”; they’re movement preferences that can become irritated when life, training load, stress and recovery get out of balance.

If you recognise yourself in A or B, it doesn’t mean you’re broken – it’s a clue that targeted movement, strength work and lifestyle tweaks can be tailored to your spine rather than fighting against it.

In my Strength & Therapy practice in Rochdale, these are exactly the patterns assessed in detail so hands‑on treatment, acupuncture, rehabilitation techniques, strength and conditioning are matched to how your back actually behaves, not just where it hurts.

Comment below if you’d like a call to discuss your low back pain pattern so you can start moving with confidence again.

😡🏢Experience the Difference: From Work Stress to Relaxation with Manual Lymphatic Drainage (clinical Vodder Method)🙏🙂

ℹ️High levels of cortisol—often triggered by prolonged stress in demanding work environments—can have a range of negative effects on both body and mind. Chronic elevation of this stress hormone leads to fatigue, mood swings, difficulty concentrating and poor sleep. It also suppresses the immune system, slows digestion, and increases the risk of anxiety and burnout. Over time, persistently high cortisol can impact heart health and contribute to weight gain, making effective stress management crucial for well-being and productivity at work.

ℹ️Regular Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) therapy offers a wealth of benefits, especially within a routine focused on wellbeing and stress relief. The purpose of MLD is to stimulate the lymphatic system with gentle, rhythmic movements, encouraging the flow of lymph fluid throughout the body. This process helps to reduce swelling, remove toxins, and support natural detoxification and immune responses, which is especially useful after surgery, injury or during illness recovery.✨

ℹ️For those facing work-related stress, MLD provides more than just physical relief. Calming the nervous system eases muscle tension, reduces anxiety, and improves sleep quality. With consistent sessions, MLD can build resilience to stress, enhance mood, and boost energy—helping individuals feel better both at work and at home. Recognised for its physical, mental and emotional benefits, MLD is a powerful ally for wellbeing in an increasingly fast-paced world.🧘‍♀️🌿

✅️For expertly delivered MLD, contact Wayne Cooper, an FHT-registered Manual Lymphatic Drainage (Vodder) practitioner—fully insured and qualified for both pre- and post-surgery care.

Wayne is a skilled oncology massage specialist MLD Practitioner and a member of the Federation of Holistic Therapists (FHT).

Call 📞 07719 227728 to book a session or enquire further about the advantages of MLD and bespoke therapy plans tailored to your needs.🌈

Kinesiology taping technique for knee pain and rehabilitation – shared post-treatment from clinic today.

This application was specifically designed for a client dealing with patellofemoral pain, a medial meniscus issue, and an MCL injury.

The combination of colours isn’t just for show – each strip is placed strategically to provide the right amount of support and encourage optimal movement. The cross-over taping helps stabilise the kneecap, supports the medial knee structures, and aids recovery by improving proprioceptive feedback.

Not only does it offer pain relief, but it also improves functional movement during daily activities and exercise without restricting normal mobility.

The tape helps reduce swelling by lifting the skin at a microscopic level, allowing better lymphatic drainage post-treatment.

It’s all about helping the body heal while keeping you active.

If you’re struggling with similar issues or would like advice on knee rehab strategies, get in touch or comment below.

Stay proactive with your recovery and don’t forget – hands-on therapy combined with the right support can make a big difference!

📃The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a key stabiliser of the knee, and injuries often occur during twisting movements or sudden stops, especially in sports like football, rugby, or skiing.

😐Injury typically presents in stages, starting with the initial trauma and inflammation, followed by a subacute phase where pain, swelling, and instability may persist.

🔑Early management involves controlling swelling, restoring the knee's range of motion, and regaining muscle strength. Most people are encouraged to regain full extension and walking ability as soon as possible.

📈Rehabilitation progresses through several phases: initially focusing on pain, swelling and mobility, then advancing to muscle strengthening and controlled movement. Later phases introduce more dynamic tasks such as running, jumping, and agility drills. The final stage prepares you for a safe return to sport and everyday activities.

🎯Professional guidance throughout helps to optimise movement patterns and prevent compensation that could lead to future problems.

😷 If surgery is needed—most commonly ACL reconstruction—you’ll undergo a procedure to replace the damaged ligament with a graft, often taken from your own body.

📈 After surgery, recovery is structured in stages, beginning with gentle movement and weight bearing, typically with crutches for the first few weeks. Physiotherapy is essential, targeting pain relief, mobility, and strength. As you progress, rehab incorporates balance, coordination, and sport-specific training.

🕐Full recovery usually takes between nine and twelve months, but timelines vary based on individual goals, surgery type, and commitment to rehabilitation. Finishing the rehabilitation programme is crucial, especially the last phases, which help prevent re-injury and maximise your return to sport.

Every person’s ACL rehab journey is unique.

With expert guidance and a structured approach, you can look forward to regaining confidence, strength, and function in your knee. Ready to start your ACL rehab journey? 🏃‍♀️
