🚑😈 Throwback Alert… and a Little Bit of Mischief! 😈🚑

We dug out this photo from a first aid course 9 years ago and… well… let’s just say not everyone was behaving exactly as the instructor intended 😇😂
Some cheeky faces, some questionable seriousness — and absolutely zero shame.

What this photo really captures though is the spirit of our team: close-knit, full of personality, and always there for one another.

You’ll spot Jo in this picture 💙
Jo is no longer with us, but she is very much still part of our story. She brought laughter, warmth, and a sparkle to the team — and we love that this photo shows her right in the middle of the fun, exactly where she belonged.

We still smile when we look at this — and maybe laugh a little louder than we should

🎄✨ Getting Ready for Christmas… Without the Injuries! ✨🎄

It’s officially that time of year — decorating the tree, carrying heavy shopping bags, climbing in and out of lofts, wrapping gifts on the floor, and rushing around to get everything done.

But all that festive activity can sometimes lead to…
😣 Back pain
🤕 Shoulder strains
⚠️ Slips, trips, and over-stretching

Here are 5 simple ways to stay injury-free this Christmas:

🎁 1. Lift smart, not fast
Bending, twisting, and lifting boxes from the loft? Keep them close to your body and avoid twisting your spine.

🎄 2. Don’t overreach when decorating
Use a step stool instead of stretching too far — your shoulder and back will thank you!

🛍️ 3. Break up the shopping load
Lots of heavy carriers? Make more trips or share the load to avoid elbow and neck strain.

🪑 4. Wrap presents at a table
Sitting on the floor for long periods = guaranteed stiff backs and hips.

⛄ 5. Keep moving
Short walks, gentle stretches, and staying active help keep festive tension at bay.

If you do pick up a ni**le this season, we’re here to help you stay comfortable and enjoy Christmas pain-free. 🎅💙

💥 Shoulder Pain Holding You Back? It Could Be Your Rotator Cuff… 💥

Your rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons that keeps your shoulder stable and moving smoothly. But when these tissues become irritated, swollen, or even torn, everyday tasks can suddenly become painful — things as simple as brushing your hair or getting dressed.

Rotator cuff injuries are very common, especially if you’re:
➡️ Over 60
➡️ Active or do repetitive overhead movements
➡️ Recovering from a shoulder injury

Typical symptoms include:
⚠️ Pain at the top or side of your shoulder
⚠️ Pain that worsens when lifting your arm or reaching overhead
⚠️ Night-time pain — especially when lying on the affected shoulder
⚠️ Weakness when lifting the arm
⚠️ Clicking, catching, or limited movement

If you’re noticing any of these signs, don’t ignore them. Rotator cuff problems rarely improve with rest alone — but physiotherapy can make a huge difference.

Our physiotherapists can:
✔️ Assess what’s causing your pain
✔️ Provide hands-on treatment
✔️ Improve movement and strength
✔️ Help prevent the injury from getting worse

💬 If shoulder pain is stopping you from living life fully, we’re here to help.
Send us a message or call the clinic on 01978291154 for advice and appointments.

🌟 Struggling with Back Pain? You’re Not Alone. 🌟
Back pain affects millions of people every year — and is one of the top reasons people take time off work. It can be caused by anything from muscle spasms and ligament strains to disc issues, arthritis, or simply day-to-day stress on the body.

The good news? Back pain is rarely caused by anything serious… and physiotherapy is one of the most effective ways to treat it. 💪

At Wrexham Physiotherapy, our expert physios will:
✔️ Check for any serious issues
✔️ Identify what’s really causing your pain
✔️ Create a personalised treatment plan
✔️ Help prevent the problem from coming back

We use proven, hands-on treatments such as:
✨ Manual therapy & mobilisation
✨ Gentle manipulation
✨ Massage
✨ Electrotherapy or acupuncture (when appropriate)
✨ Tailored exercises to speed up recovery

The sooner you see a physiotherapist, the sooner you can get back to moving comfortably — and confidently.

💬 If back pain is slowing you down, we’re here to help.
Send us a message or call 01978291154 to book your appointment.

Shockwave Therapy

Our experienced therapists have over 10 years experience with this treatment modality and we are pleased to be able to offer this to our patients at our standard treatment charges.

Extracorporeal shockwave therapy is a procedure that passes acoustic shock waves through the skin, via a hand held tool, which is applied by the physiotherapist. The shockwaves are mechanical, not electrical; they are audible, high frequency soundwaves which work by increasing the blood flow to the injured area, this accelerates the body’s healing process. Extracorporeal means outside the body, therefore it is a non-invasive, effective method for the treatment of localised musculoskeletal pathologies. Shockwave therapy can be used for both chronic and acute soft tissue disorders. The treatment produces an inflammatory response, the body responds by increasing metabolic activity around the area of pain, this in turn stimulates & accelerates the healing processes, promoting neovascularization, collagen production and remodeling of dysfunctional collagenous tissues. Shockwaves can also break down scar tissue & calcification within the damaged structures.

Indications for use include:
Muscle regeneration support
Painful shoulder, frozen shoulder, rotator cuff disorders
Tennis and golfers elbow
Low back pain and piriformis syndrome
Jumpers knee, patella tendinopathy
Achilles tendinopathy
Plantar fasciitis and heel spur
Calcified tendinitis

Get in touch today to book your appointment with no waiting lists and start your treatment straight away!

Meet the team - Chloe Watson (Physiotherapist)

Chloe has a background in massage therapy and over eight years of hands-on experience, both abroad and in spas across Newcastle and Durham. She has always been passionate about helping people feel better, and that naturally led her to pursue a degree in Physiotherapy at Teesside University.

After graduating she volunteered with the Seaton Carew Ladies Football Team. Chloe felt it was a brilliant way to build confidence, gain practical experience, and learn how to think on her feet. She also spent time shadowing MSK physios in different clinics to keep learning and growing in the field she loves most.

In September 2023, she joined the NHS as a rotational physiotherapist. This gave her the chance to work across a variety of areas including MSK Outpatients, Paediatrics, Elective Orthopaedics, Community & Acute Stroke, Long-Term Neuro Rehab. These rotations helped her build a solid foundation and gave her a broader understanding of patient care. Chloe’s heart has really always been in MSK, and she is excited to focus more on that in clinic with us.

She is really passionate about anatomy and understanding how the body works, and she takes a holistic, person-centred approach to treatment. She believes in staying positive, looking after her own health and well-being, and surrounding herself with people who lift her up.

Outside of work, Chloe loves spending time with her boyfriend, family, and close friends. She is a regular at the gym, enjoys long walks, and loves travelling and exploring new cultures.
