Shin splints is a term used to describe pain at the front of the shin and can incorporate a couple of different conditions. The main one being ‘medial tibial stress’. This is where the Tibialis posterior muscle pulls along its attachment to the shin bone (Tibia) causing inflammation and in the worst cases causing small fractures of the Tibia bone itself. It’s a common injury amongst runners especially distance runners.

The main cause, as with any intrinsic injury is faulty biomechanics and movement patterns combined with excessive pounding exercise.

To treat this condition I will treat the cause first by using specialist neuromuscular techniques to reset muscle patterns and help restore good functional movement then I will treat the symptoms by using various sports massage techniques

This is a shout out to my good client who this weekend runs a half marathon in Prague on Saturday and another in Berlin on Sunday. Two half’s in two days 🤩. This is off the back of already running x8 half marathons in the last 12 months.

Once done she will have successfully completed the challenge (x6 half marathons across Europe).

Not only this but by adding an additional x4 domestic half marathons she will have completed x10 in the past 12 months.

In the process raising a significant amount of money for cancer research in memory of her Dad

A monumental achievement.

Good luck for the weekend Jacquie 💪🏼🏃‍♀️

Our Approach to Back & Neck Pain:

Back and neck pain are rarely just “tight muscles.”

In most cases, we see a combination of:

• Load intolerance
• Poor movement control
• Prolonged postural stress
• Reduced strength capacity
• poor breathing mechanics contributing to tension

At Billericay Sports Therapy, i take a structured clinical approach.

Your initial consultation includes:

– Detailed movement assessments
– Spinal & joint evaluation
– Strength and endurance testing
– Postural load analysis
– Breathing pattern assessment

Why breathing?

Because inefficient breathing patterns — particularly upper chest dominance — can increase neck tension, rib stiffness and lower back overload.

Breathing principles influenced by the work of Konstantin Buteyko are integrated where appropriate to reduce unnecessary muscular tension and improve recovery.

Treatment for back and neck pain may include:

• Targeted manual therapy
• Progressive strength rebuilding
• Movement retraining
• Load management guidance
• Breathing re-education

My goal is not temporary relief.

My goal is to improve resilience — so you can sit, train, work and move without recurring flare-ups.

If you have back or neck pain that keeps returning, please reach out and book a full assessment.

Routine Sports Therapy treatment is the best way of trying to stay injury free.

Why wait until you get injured? 🤷‍♂️

I often have patients kindly inform me before their appointments that they have a cold or virus and even offer to cancel their appointment and stay away so as not to infect me. My answer to this is always:

“Thank you but it does not matter. If you feel well enough to attend then it’s fine”.

Why is this my response and why am I not worried about being around people with colds and virus’s etc?

Since becoming a registered and certified Buteyko instructor with Buteyko Clinic International over 6 years ago I have improved and strengthened my immune function by conditioning my respiratory system and breathing habits on a daily basis. As a result I suffer much fewer colds and certainly less intense when I do catch one.

To understand how breathing habits affect immune function take 5 mins to read the this article 😉
