Runners, Are you loading your calves enough?

Your calves do the heavy lifting when you run — up to 70% of the work, taking over 8x your bodyweight with every step. 🤯

Bodyweight calf raises at the end of your session won’t cut it. To actually adapt, your calves need:
✅ Heavy strength work
✅ Plyometrics & hopping drills
✅ Coordination with the rest of the chain

Drop me a follow for more running injury advice or DM me if pain is getting in the way of your running

📱 Did you know we offer Telehealth physiotherapy sessions?

Research shows that Telehealth can be just as effective as in-person physiotherapy for reducing pain and improving physical function. While hands-on treatments can relieve symptoms, they don’t always address the root causes or provide a lasting solution.

That’s where a personalized, step-by-step rehab plan comes in, tailored to you and accessible from anywhere in Australia—or around the world! 🌏

Allow me to reintroduce myself!

I’m Ben, a passionate physiotherapist originally from Ireland, and I’ve been calling Melbourne home for the past 7 years.

I have been a physio for the last 10 years working in private practice and sports in Australia and at home. I truly love being a physio and helping people achieve their health and fitness goals whether that be a return to running or exercise or living a more active pain free life.

I believe in lifelong learning so I always strive to stay up to date with the latest research in rehab to provide my patients with the best possible service.

I have been active throughout my life playing basketball, Gaelic football and going to the gym. I also love to run and am currently training for my next Marathon in Queenstown this November.

With this I have had my fair share of injuries so I understand first hand how they can impact not just your body, but your sense of identity and overall happiness.

I’m here to help you move forward with confidence.

Is your Rehab Challenging you?

I’ve seen too many cases where patients are given generic low-load exercises and some hands-on treatment. The result? They were stuck in the same cycle of pain and injury, never really getting back to what they love doing.

Your rehab should match the demands of your goals—whether that’s life, running, or training.

If you want to break the cycle of pain and injury and achieve lasting results drop me a DM today.

Do we offer hands-on treatment? Absolutely. But is it the solution to all your problems? Probably not.

We incorporate manual therapy as part of a comprehensive treatment plan to reduce pain and create a window of opportunity to get you moving and load your tissues effectively.

Pain and stiffness often stem from the body’s adaptations to past pain or injury. A thorough assessment is crucial to identify which tissues aren’t functioning effectively, paving the way for a long-term solution to your pain.

While manual therapy can make you feel better, it’s rarely enough on its own to achieve lasting results.

Are you following a plan with your treatment?

When working clients that have “failed” previous physio or rehab, a clear theme in their story is lack of a plan or direction with their treatment.

Patients often report having a little bit of hands on treatment, a few exercises that were not progressed only to find themselves back in discomfort after a few weeks or months

In our initial consultation we will go through a clear step by step plan tailored to your needs, guiding you from where you are now to where you want to be.

Whether you want to run further, work out without pain or simply play with your kids we are here to help.
