ONE LAST FIX BEFORE THE FINISH LINE.

It’s been an absolute privilege working with this legend 🙌 Week in, week out, I’ve had the job of “fixing him up” — and let’s just say, his body has kept me on my toes as much as he keeps defenders on theirs 🏉💆‍♀️
Thank you for trusting me with your recovery, and for always bringing not just hard work but good vibes into every session. You’re not only a gun on the field, but a genuinely great human off it too. Grateful to have been part of your journey 💙⚡️

Joint mobilisation is the skilled passive movement of articulating surfaces of a joint to help produce a reduction in pain or an increase in range of motion. Joint mobilisation can be done manually utilising a practitioner's hands or with a belt to create greater leverage with less force from the therapist. It can be used in any condition causing joint pain, tightness and limitation of movement. Some clinical presentations may include anterior hip impingement, frozen shoulder, nerve impingement (radiculopathy) or to help joint health with those struggling with osteoarthritis.

Use of joint mobilisations during a treatment can help with:
1. Decreasing joint pain
2. Increase joint range of motion
3. improve joint congruency
4. reflexively decrease surrounding muscle tension

It doesn’t take long to settle into new surroundings when you’re accompanied by legends!

Apologies I have been quiet on here . I have been settling and trying to sit back into keeping things simple and doing what I love best which is one on one treatment with clients.

A few weeks ago we stayed back to refined our skills in the application of dry needling. I’ll be honest it’s been so nice to have some fellow therapist to share experience & knowledge with and to learn from others in different ways.

Also me volunteering to be on the table so I can get a sneaky treatment and eat snacks at the same time 😂

Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation combines the use of dry needling whilst also applying an electrical current to produce a contraction within a muscle.

The technique is extremely useful to help improve muscle strength or re-educate weak muscles, decrease tension within the musculoskeletal system and help maintain or improve joint range of motion following orthopaedic surgery. It is an extremely effective modality that can improve pain symptoms, increase circulation and improve sensory recovery due to nerve compression. As well as being extremely useful in decreasing muscle spasticity in patients that have suffered from stroke, cerebral palsy or MS.

During my clinical practise this is a modality that I have grown to love as some of the results that have been achieved have been outstanding! In clinic some of the most common presentation that I may use NMES for are:

- Nerve entrapment (Sciatica in Particular)
- Over-use injuries presenting with tightness within the musculoskeletal system.
- Retrain muscle weakness or atrophy post surgery.

If you would like more information on NMES or want to know if it appropriate for you please reach out.

Patella Femoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS)

Do you get pain in you knee when walking up and down stairs, or when performing a deep squat or lunge?

Or maybe you have discomfort in your knee after sitting down for a long period of time?

If you're wondering why this may be happening it could be caused by PFPS which can occur with overuse of the knee hip and quadricep muscles. It can also be caused by a sudden change (generally increase) in physical activity, which can be related to the frequency of activity (e.g., increasing the number of days you exercise each week) or to the duration or intensity of activity (e.g., running longer distances).

Muscular imbalances weakness or tightness in muscles can often be part of the cause. Sometimes just doing some activation of your medial quadricep muscle and gluts is enough to help reduce pain! Although this is not always the case manual therapy, massage, cupping and dry needling are all great conservative treatment options to help manage pain occurring at the knee.

If you're looking for some extra help with knee pain or discomfort with the above symptoms pop on in and have a chat about how manual therapy can effectively help those with patella femoral pain syndrome.
