3 Mistakes People Make When Returning to Training After Injury ❌

We see these patterns all the time and they’re the reason people end up back in our clinic months later:

1. Progressing Too Fast

You feel good for a few sessions, so you jump straight back to your old training volume. Your tissues aren’t ready yet, and you re-injure yourself within weeks.

2. Skipping Strength Work

You focus only on cardio or sport-specific training and neglect the strength foundation your body needs to handle load safely.

3. No Clear Plan

You’re winging it based on how you feel day-to-day, rather than following a structured progression with objective markers.

The Fix:

Work with a physio who understands both injury rehab AND performance training. Know your milestones. Progress systematically.

That’s what we do at RD Physiotherapy 💪

Why Mapping Out Your Rehab Journey Matters 🎯

At RD Physiotherapy, we do things differently. Being specific and clear on your milestones is key to successful rehab,and it’s what separates good recovery from great recovery.

Here’s What We Mean:

Most people finish physio and are left wondering: “Am I ready to run again?” or “Can I go back to the gym now?” Without clear markers of progress, you’re guessing.

Our Approach:

We map out your entire journey from day one, with:

✅ Baseline assessments to understand where you’re starting
✅ Phase-specific goals (pain reduction → mobility → strength → function)
✅ Objective measures to track improvement
✅ Clear criteria for progressing between phases
✅ Return-to-sport or activity protocols

The Result?

You’re never left wondering if you’re ready. You know exactly when you’ve hit each milestone and when it’s safe to progress.

This is how we reduce re-injury rates and get you back to what you love confidently.

Is your rehab journey clearly mapped out?

One of the biggest differences between successful rehab and getting stuck in a cycle of recurring pain is having a clear, structured plan.

At RD Physiotherapy, we don’t just treat your symptoms, we map out your entire rehabilitation journey with specific milestones and measurable goals.

What This Looks Like:

📍 Clear assessment of where you are now
📍 Specific short-term goals (weeks 1-4)
📍 Medium-term milestones (weeks 4-8)
📍 Long-term return-to-sport or activity targets
📍 Regular reassessments to track progress

When you know exactly where you’re going and what success looks like at each stage, you stay motivated and accountable.

No guessing. Just clear progression.

Is your current rehab plan this specific? If not, it’s time to change that.

Struggling with persistent pain that won’t shift?

Shockwave therapy is clinically proven to treat:

🦶 Plantar fasciitis
🏃 Achilles tendon pain
🎾 Tennis elbow
💪 Rotator cuff injuries
🦵 Hip pain

These stubborn injuries often don’t respond to rest or traditional physiotherapy alone. Shockwave therapy accelerates healing by stimulating tissue repair at a cellular level.

Dealing with one of these? Shockwave could be the breakthrough you need.

Available now at RD Physiotherapy, Dublin Docklands.

Chronic pain holding you back?

Our new Shockwave Therapy uses advanced acoustic waves to kickstart healing!

Shockwave therapy delivers targeted acoustic pulses, stimulating blood flow and triggering your body’s natural healing response. It’s particularly effective for persistent injuries that haven’t responded to traditional treatment.

Sessions take 10-15 minutes with no downtime. You can return to normal activities immediately after treatment.

Available now at RD Physiotherapy, Dublin Docklands

A physiotherapy assessment is required to determine if shockwave therapy is appropriate for your condition.

New equipment just landed at the clinic

We’ve just upgraded our setup with the VALD Strengthening Kit — bringing objective, data-driven rehab and performance testing into every stage of care.

So what does this actually mean for you?

🔹 Force sensors & load cells to accurately measure strength
🔹 Isometric testing for quads, hamstrings, calves, and hips
🔹 Real-time feedback during rehab exercises
🔹 Side-to-side comparisons to identify imbalances
🔹 Clear benchmarks to guide return-to-sport decisions

Instead of guessing if you’re “strong enough,” we can now measure it, track progress over time, and progress your rehab with confidence.

This is especially powerful for:
✔️️ ACL & post-op rehab
✔️️ Knee pain & lower-limb injuries
✔️️ Athletes returning to sport
✔️️ Anyone who wants evidence-based progression

Smarter loading. Better decisions. Stronger outcomes.

Feeling tight, stiff, or constantly sore? 🤔

That’s your body telling you something.
Sports massage isn’t just for athletes. If you’re:

- Sitting at a desk 8 hours a day 💼
- Training hard but never recovering properly 🏋️‍♂️
- Dealing with constant tension in your neck and shoulders
- Feeling stiff and restricted in your movement
- Carrying old niggles that never quite go away
Sports massage can help.

It’s not a luxury, it’s maintenance. Your car gets serviced regularly, why shouldn’t your body? 💪

What we do:

Deep tissue massage work that actually addresses the problem. We find the tight spots, work them out properly, and help your body move the way it should.
60-minute sessions with Richard or Cillian. Both have extensive experience with athletes, office workers, and everyone in between.

HYROX Dublin is here! 🇮🇪

Whether it’s your first race or your fifth, a few smart moves can make all the difference.
Here are your physio-backed tips to perform at your best, stay injury-free, and recover like a pro 💥

✅ Start hydrating 48 hrs before
✅ Keep movement light this week — not intense
✅ Warm up dynamically, not statically
✅ Pace yourself through each station
✅ Prioritise recovery — hydrate, refuel, book a massage

💡 Physio’s Tip:

Trust your training. Stay smooth and controlled.
Strong movement > fast fatigue.

🙌 Good luck to everyone taking on HYROX Dublin this Sunday!
