NEW TREATMENT 👀

Firstly clinic appointments will remain the same, no changes! However I feel like it’s been a long time coming finding somewhere to officially offer gym based appointments! So finally you can now book gym based appointments to take place at 🦵🏼💪🏼

I’m absolutely over the moon about this, the facilities are outstanding including cold plunge and sauna! This is the direction I’ve been wanting to work in for a while so I’m really excited to get started.

I will be providing further information to follow.

These appointments will be for people recovering from injury, to prevent injury or rebuild and improve functional strength post surgery.

*ten things that run through my head a day as a busy little physio*

1. “Did they actually do their exercises?”
(Spoiler: probably not… but guess what?! I can actually tell if you have or haven’t.) 🤷🏼‍♀️

2. “That posture’s going to hurt tomorrow.”
Whether it’s a patient slouched in the waiting room or a colleague hunched over a desk. 🥨

3. “How can I explain this without sounding like a textbook?”
Balancing science with simple, motivating language. If you know me you will hear me now trying to explain something in a silly way 🫣

4. “Why does everyone think I just give massages?”
The eternal struggle for professional recognition. 👻

5. “That joint’s not moving right — I can feel it.”
Clinical intuition and years of study and practice. 👩🏼‍🎓

6. “How am I going to fit everyone in today?”
One cancellation, two double-bookings, and somehow you’re still running behind. 🏃🏼‍♀️

7. “How do I get them to actually rest?”
Especially with athletes who think “rest” means “light training.” 🛌

8. “At least I got to Pilates or the gym this morning — my calm in the chaos.” 🧘🏼‍♀️
(The struggles of self employment and self care.)

9. “Documentation, notes, reports… I became a physio for this?” 👩🏼‍💻
The less glamorous side of the job.

10. “That moment when a patient finally moves pain-free — yes, this is why I do it.” 🤍👌🏽
The small victories that make the long days worth it.

And you can probs sneak in there that I’m thinking I hope brings me a drink ☕️

The Wild West of jobs 🥨

But more importantly why is hamstring mobility important for Muay Thai fighters?

🔥 1️⃣ Higher, Cleaner Kicks
Tight hamstrings limit your leg lift and hip flexion.
Loose hamstrings = better extension, reach, and control.

💨 2️⃣ Faster Recovery Between Strikes
Elastic hamstrings help you recoil and reset quicker after every kick — saving energy and keeping your rhythm smooth.

🌀 3️⃣ More Hip Power
Tightness restricts hip rotation. Free hips = more torque = more power.

🚫 4️⃣ Less Risk of Strain
Flexibility protects you from hamstring pulls, lower back tension, and imbalances during explosive moves.

⚖️ 5️⃣ Better Balance & Posture
Loose hamstrings help maintain a neutral pelvis, improving stability in stance, clinch, and defense.

Loose hamstrings = higher kicks, smoother flow, stronger hips, and fewer injuries
👊

“Fell recently and your shoulder’s been tight ever since? 👀

Totally normal — your muscles often tense up to protect the area after injury.

Here’s a release I love using to ease that post-fall shoulder tension and get movement back 👌🏽

The key is to breathe through it.

I will always hope they refer to me as their ‘fave physio’ 👩🏼‍💻🧋🧘🏼‍♀️

One of the most common injuries I see in clinic. Almost everyone seems to leave it and hope for the best even whilst playing sport! This has allowed me to focus on effective rehab and develop a highly successful plan to follow for the best results!

🚨Swelling Reduction: Managing inflammation early supports tissue healing, protects joint integrity, and helps restore normal movement patterns. Techniques may include compression, elevation, gentle mobility, and appropriate loading.

🚨Mobility Restoration: Controlled range-of-motion exercises prevent stiffness and joint restriction. Early movement — when safe — promotes circulation and optimal collagen alignment during healing.

🚨Calf Strengthening: The calf complex (gastrocnemius and soleus) plays a crucial role in ankle stability, propulsion, and balance. Progressive strengthening restores power and helps prevent future sprains.

Rehabilitation should always be individualized and progressive, ensuring the ankle regains full function and resilience before returning to activity. But equally please DON’T rely on rest alone for your recovery ❤️‍🩹 The risk of re-injury by this would is so much higher!

If you have an injury that has been holding you back please drop me a message!

Trust the process 🦶🏼👣
Unbelievably this client didn’t actually come to see me about her feet. However on her assessment for lower back pain. This is why assessment is SO important. I picked up on the problems in my clients feet. After 5 appointments my clients feet are 90% better and she no longer suffers with the pain in her back.
