We will do a consultation which will include asking you questions about what the injury/concern is, where it is located,how long it has been sore for,if the pain travels,medication, any treatments that you may have tried,etc. If required we will carry out a muscle/tendon/ligament testing. TREATMENT

Using various massage techniques/traction/mobilisation to address the problem area, massage will be adapted to each client and feedback between us and client is crucial. We will constantly check that it's not to painful for you and each client is treated individually. Exercises for stretching/strengthening or both may be given out depending on the injury/issue.

THE I.T. BAND

The I.T. band or illiotibial tract is a fibrous band of connective tissue known as fascia that stems from top of the illiac crest, glute muscles and tensor fascia latae muscle, it then descends down the lateral thigh muscle and connects into the outisde tibia and outisde of the kneecap.

PURPOSE

The I.T. band helps stabilise the hip and knee and also helps transmit forces from the glutes and tfl muscle.

***** As the I.T. Band is connective tissue, it therefore cannot contract like a muscle. Therefore if the I.T band is tight, it's due to the muscles that it is attaching to that are tight (glutes,tfl, and vastus lateralis (outside quad muscle) *******

PAIN

Runners knee is a condition that occurs when the person feels pain which can feel like burning on the outside of the knee usually when a increase in training or higher intensity of training has happened.In addition activities such as going up and down stairs, kneeling or squatting may bring this pain on, as well as an over pronated foot.
