Our practitioners are always striving to enhance their skills and knowledge! ๐ŸŒŸ

Recently, Maia, Ruby and Eleanor attended a CPD event with Ramsey Health Care. The event focused on MSK education and provided valuable insights into some of our local consultants and how their services can benefit our clients.

By learning the pathway and what kind of interventions they can offer, and understanding best practise when it comes to surgical and injection options, we are able to forge positive relationships and make the best decisions and possible recommendations and referrals for our clients.

Continuous learning is key to providing the best care possible! ๐Ÿš€

๐Ÿ“ฃ Available to clients on Wednesday evenings, Glen will be joining our Chorley clinic from 25th March! We can't wait to welcome him to the team and have no doubt he will be a fantastic addition.๐Ÿ“ฃ

"With a masterโ€™s degree in Physiotherapy from the University of Cumbria and an undergraduate degree in Sport and Exercise Science from Northumbria University. Plus, my background as a personal trainer, combined with additional qualifications in sports massage, I aim to deliver a high standard of assessment and rehabilitation in the clinic.

As a physiotherapist, I am highly equipped to support clients with pain management and injury recovery. I am passionate about getting people real results and believe that rehab should be tailored to suit the individual and their lifestyle. Outside of the clinic, I am a dedicated gym enthusiast and also train in mixed martial arts.

If youโ€™re struggling with pain or an injury, I will work with you to help you return to your best, as quickly and safely as possible."

โ€œShockwave therapy has been amazing at curing my tennis elbow. I noticed an improvement after the first session, and combined with exercises between each session it has now completely healed.

Chris has been working with Laura at Wrightington to address ongoing left shoulder pain caused by rotator cuff dysfunction. ๐Ÿค•๐Ÿฅ

His rehabilitation has focused on targeted strengthening and progressive loading of the key shoulder muscles, alongside exercises to improve stability and control. This approach not only helps reduce pain, but also restores function โ€” especially important for one of Chrisโ€™s favourite hobbies, golf. ๐ŸŒ๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ’ช

Chris has already made fantastic progress, building strength and confidence week by week. As he continues to improve, weโ€™re expecting even bigger gains in both his performance and day-to-day function. ๐Ÿ“ˆ๐Ÿ‘

Great work, Chris โ€” keep it up! ๐Ÿ’ช๐ŸŒ๏ธโ€โ™‚๏ธ

On 27th September, what started as a cycling holiday ended in a serious crash for Colin.

His injuries included:
๐Ÿ”ต Hemothorax (bleeding into the chest)
๐Ÿ”ต Broken clavicle requiring reconstructive surgery with a titanium implant
๐Ÿ”ต Scapula fractured in 3โ€“4 places
๐Ÿ”ต 6 displaced rib fractures + 1 additional fractured rib
๐Ÿ”ต Broken finger (repaired with screws)

He spent 9 days in ICU and 4 days on the ward, with surgery on 4th October.
Rehab with Libby initially focused on breathing, pain management and gentle mobility. With rib fractures and significant shoulder trauma, early progress was about restoring basic movement safely and protecting the surgical repair.

As healing progressed, we built things back step by step:
โœ”๏ธ Restoring shoulder mobility
โœ”๏ธ Rebuilding scapular control
โœ”๏ธ Strengthening the rotator cuff and upper limb
โœ”๏ธ Improving thoracic mobility
โœ”๏ธ Gradual cardiovascular reconditioning

His recovery has genuinely been outstanding. He now has practically full range of movement, near full strength, and reports minimal discomfort. Considering the extent of the injuries, the progress heโ€™s made over the past few months has been exceptional. ๐Ÿคฉ

Weโ€™re now transitioning into return-to-bike preparation, and heโ€™s not far away from getting back where he belongs. โ˜บ๏ธ๐Ÿ’ช

Peter is a 78-year-old, keen golfer and tennis player ๐ŸŽพโ›ณ, who had been struggling with Achilles pain. Initially, the tendon was very inflamed, red, thick, and painful. Peter was struggling to weight bear due to the pain, and simple short walks on holiday were becoming problematic ๐Ÿ˜Ÿ.

Laura advised on an exercise plan to stretch and load the tendon, and now Peter is currently reporting an 85% improvement in symptoms ๐ŸŽ‰. Peterโ€™s main takeaway is how important it is to progressively load the tendon, and he will continue to follow this protocol until he returns to sport ๐Ÿ’ช.

Steph sent a wonderful message to Eleanor after the event to show her appreciation ๐Ÿฅฐ ...

"Thank youuuuuuu so much for my massage. I truly think it got me through it, because the pain I was experiencing before you, was worrying, but I raced pain free and loved every moment of it"

We love to hear it! ๐Ÿคฉ

Matt is a tree surgeon who injured his back lifting a heavy tree. ๐ŸŒณ๐Ÿชš

He was in lots of pain and had experienced this happening on a recurring basis, resulting in Matt really losing his confidence with bending and lifting, whilst at work.

Matt came to see Laura at Wrightington, and as you can see has made a great recovery, and is happy to be enjoying work with new found confidence in his back! To help him achieve this, treatment sessions focused on movement control exercises of the lower back, plus, core and gluteal strengthening exercises. ๐Ÿ’ช ๐Ÿ‹๏ธ

Matt doesnโ€™t fear quick, uncontrolled movement any more, and is feeling so much more confident in the strength in his back. We are happy that Matt is back doing what he loves! ๐ŸŒฒโ˜บ๏ธ
