Dry Needling The Delt Better!

Stuck in the rest cycle? My online coaching builds you back up week by week. Comment physio for details, see you there🫡

Struggling with exercise and not feeling yourself?
Here’s what most people miss.

Your body has a total load capacity. And stress eats into it. Work stress. Sleep stress. Emotional stress. All of it.
When that stress load is high, your body has less capacity to recover. Less capacity to heal.

That’s why some people do everything right with their rehab and still don’t get better. The system is already maxed out before they even start.

Stress doesn’t just make you feel rubbish. It increases inflammation. Sensitises your nervous system. Slows tissue repair.

So if you’re stuck right now, it might not be your exercises that need changing.

Comment STRESS and I’ll send you a stress load calculator to help you figure out where it’s coming from.
Not a diagnosis. Just a way to highlight what might need to change first.

This little muscle on the side of your shoulder blade grips on without you even knowing.

And when it does your shoulder sits higher than it should and getting your arm fully overhead feels like a struggle.

Switch it off and the whole thing just lets go.

Your hamstrings aren’t tight because they’re short.

They’re tight because your pelvis is pulling them taut before you even move.

Most people have an anterior pelvic tilt. Around 80% of the population. Normal. Not a problem by itself.

But tight hip flexors and quads pull the pelvis even further forward. Your hamstring attaches at the base of that pelvis. So it’s already on stretch, at rest.

Then you stretch it more. You’re just pulling harder on something that’s already being pulled.

The fix is the hip flexors and quads. Loosen those. Strengthen the glutes. The pelvis settles. The hamstrings follow.

If you got this far, I’ve got a free 15-email sequence on pain but can crossover to tightness. It’s pretty good Comment “email” and I’ll send it over.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Thank you

Comment ‘email’ to understand pain a little better!

Comment ‘EMAIL’ and I’ll send you my free pain series.

Your brain lies to you every single day.

Not because something is wrong with you. Because it’s trying to protect you.

When pain sticks around, your alarm system gets stuck on. It fires before anything’s even happened.

That’s why your scan comes back fine and you’re still hurting.

This isn’t a stretch. It’s a mobility drill. Let me explain the cues. and there’s a big difference.

Most people do the couch stretch passively and get nowhere. Here’s what I’m actually doing the whole time:

Actively driving my hip forward. Earning the range, not just sitting in it

Firing my glute, which signals the hip flexors to release further

Reaching as far over as I can to open the whole side up,hip to fingertips

Bracing my core to keep my pelvis in the right position throughout

One position. Hitting the anterior hip, re**us femoris, iliopsoas, TFL, QL, lat and thoracic spine all at once.
It’s taxing. It should be.

If you’re doing it right you’re working the whole time, that’s exactly why it works.

Comment ‘physio’ if you want to do physio with me.

Ps my left side is injured 😂

Dry needling the hamstring as part of a lower back treatment.

Tight hamstrings pull on the pelvis and load the lumbar spine.

So releasing them is just as important as treating the back itself.

I’m treating the whole posterior chain, not just the symptom.

This bed was gifted to me by but honestly I wouldn’t post about it if I didn’t love it. The sturdiness alone speaks for itself! 😂

Now rehab to keep the back pain free…

21/02/2026

If your lat always feels tight when you lift your arm… it might not be the problem.

Your body always prioritises stability.

When one muscle isn’t doing its job properly, another one will step in.

The lat is strong.
It connects your arm to your trunk.
So it often becomes the backup stabiliser during overhead movement.

The issue?

It pulls the arm down and in.
Not ideal when you’re trying to move smoothly overhead.

So you get:
• Tight lats
• Shoulder pinching
• Temporary relief from stretching
• But it keeps coming back

Because the muscle that should be controlling your shoulder blade during overhead movement…

Is the serratus anterior.

Release the lat.
Retrain serratus.
Reload properly.

That’s how you break the cycle.

If you want someone to understand chains of muscles for your rehab, comment ‘physio’ & we can talk about doing online rehab with myself ☺️
