PMC Performance & Sports Recovery

PMC Performance & Sports Recovery Led by Physiotherapist, medical postgraduate and AIL rugby player Paul McCarroll to bring the science of elite athletes to active people of all ages.

PMC Performance & Sports Recovery is focused on providing our clients with the science of elite athletes, combined with state of the art recovery modalities. As a fully qualified Physiotherapist and Medical Post Graduate, Paul also has extensive first hand experience as a AIL rugby player himself with clinical experience in international sporting teams ranging from the professional level to amateur local sides. This experience has provided an insight into the workings of a professional sport, an elite athlete has a garrison of recovery adjuncts available to them, however the rest of us have to limp on in silence. Our unique on the road service provides recovery treatment for active persons of all levels and ages, administered in the comfort of their own home. In addition to recovery we can provide performance consultancy and injury rehabilitation to help you reach your goals. Whether it's triathlons, GAA, football or any other physically demanding sport you are involved in, looking after your health and fitness is crucial to your long term participation and enjoyment and this is where PMC comes in.

Unfortunately I couldn't attend the conference this weekend. Glad to see Dr Rod Whiteley from Aspetar, calling out these passive practices. "Physio's do every flavour of bu****it". Bu****it treatments, lead to bu****it results. As an industry we need to stop the 💩💩!

BU****IT ALERT 🚨 More absolute bo****ks information being fed to the public domain. This infographic, was published with very poor quality research and adds to the fear mongering behaviour of the industry. Kids with heavier school bags who travelled to school by car, reported higher incidences of back pain. Kids who walked to school with heavy backpacks reported lower incidences of back pain. This is also true for the lighter backpacks in these studies. So don't go out and buy expensive specialist back packs recommended by some shoddy research. Maybe Get your kids up and active, encourage physical activity. It's a much smarter investment.

Great infographic as always by , RICE is the worst acronym to ever have been adopted by the sports medicine industry. And this study adds more weight to this argument, the most recent hamstring rehabilitation from aspetar introduces early loading. Askling protocol etc and even we see certain types of ankle fractures and Achilles ruptures, all utilising early loading yet there is still this idea of delaying loading, RICE was an opinion piece that was followed up with poor quality studies. The message gets lost, I've had clients who are resting 6 months down the line, that's not resting , that's retiring. GET UP, GET OUT, GET ACTIVE. If you want an acronym use POLICE.

I'm going to be devils advocate after reading the comments section of this video, people are providing bu****it arguments. So an awful lot of people are looking at disease and death too simplistic. That belief that stress caused death etc is totally flawed. Robert Sapolskys work tells us that stress is not an individual risk factor for disease or death. Actually in medicine there are very few individual risk factors for anything, and the problem with most of our treatment approaches is we look at one our two risk factors and eradicate that. There is evidence to suggest that stress exacerbates and is a contributing risk factor to these lifestyle and inflammatory diseases. Those that are gonna dismiss this Ted talk without reading the papers are doing a disservice to science. And I guarantee it's the more scientific minds there that will make the correlation and causation argument. Science and especially neuroscience isn't black and white, it's gives us the best explanation that our experimental design allows. I read the comments and everyone is looking for the golden pill and magic bullet. It's doesn't exist, but stress is an established risk factor, maybe changing a belief about it is another point of attack in these lifestyle diseases.
