Do you suffer from hip pain that is worse at night & might even wake you?
-
1️⃣ Hip Bursitis: The bursa is a fluid filled sac that sit between soft tissue & bone. It's job is to reduce friction during movement. The one thing they don't like is compression. Lying on your side can compress & irritate the bursa on the side of the hip.

2️⃣ Hip Osteoarthritis: Night time hip & groin pain that disturbs sleep is a common symptom of osteoarthritis. Activity keeps the joint lubricated while being still enables inflammation to pool & cause pain.

3️⃣ Spine Referred Pain: The nerves of the hip, groin & leg originate from the lumbar spine. A problem in the spine can cause referred pain including sicatica, piriformis syndrome & paresthetica meralgia. When a patient presents with hip pain in clinic I always check & clear the spine first.

4️⃣ Gluteal Tendinopathy: This often causes pain on the side of the hip. It can be a sign that you've pushed the tendons too far with movement or exercise.We often discourage sleeping of the painful side. This is a common symptom in menopausal women.

5️⃣ Sleeping Position & Mattress: Equally of mattress that is too hard or soft can cause hip pain & not just on the side you're lying on. Try a mattress topper or a pillow between your knees before you shell out for a new mattress.

I've been doing some CPD to help me better understand & manage patients with hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (hEDS).
-
Can you imagine going to your doctor or health professional & being told it "was all in your head" or "you don't look like you're ill?" I knew from my current clinical experience that hEDS sufferers were termed "revolving door" patients. Often undiagnosed & moving from health professional to health professional seeking help. I'm always shocked to hear how these patients are gaslit by their health providers. On a discussion last Tuesday with colleagues we spoke at length about this. These were a small sample of comments taken from patients personal accounts on their health care journey.

I read a study from Halverson et al 2023 who coined the phrase "clinician-associated traumatization." Basically it's where repeated gaslighting caused patients to lose faith in health care & their own ability to advocate for themselves. This resulted in anxiety & medical avoidance.

hEDS is a complex, multisystemic condition affecting the connective tissues. It's characterized by complaints of chronic pain & fatigue, along with many neurological, cardiovascular, and gastrointestinal issues.(Halverson et. al 2023). You can see that in order to manage hEDS a patient needs to see lots of different professionals. Inadvertent comments really matter as they can lead to medical invalidation.

A common type of shoulder pain is rotator cuff pain. This refers to pain being caused from the muscles and tendons that support the shoulder joint & scapula.
-
It presents as pain in the shoulder & upper arm. Pain can be caused by lifting the arm up to or above shoulder height & can feel like something is "stuck" inside the shoulder. Some patients experience it as a constant dull ache & others as a sharp pain. It can be worse at night & sometimes cause stiffness. It can come on all of a sudden or slowly over a long period of time.
-
Causes include:
🔥 Age related degenerative changes to rotator cuff muscles & tendons.
🔥 Over use normally repetitive movements.
🔥 Sudden onset from doing something you're not used too.
🔥 Impingement - narrowing of the sub-acromial space.
🔥 Sudden trauma - like a fall or slipping while getting out of the bath.
🔥 Over head movements like painting the ceiling, DIY, exercise.

Our story

I am a Registered Osteopath with the General Osteopathic Council. I graduated from the University College of Osteopathy formely the British School of Osteopathy in London, the oldest osteopathy college in Europe, with a Masters level degree. I completed the part-time pathway over five years. My osteopathic training included the comprehensive study of the human body including anatomy, physiology, neurology and rheumatology.

I believe that no two bodies are the same and appreciate that no two treatments should be the same either. I use a variety of hands on techniques including joint manipulation, neuromuscular and soft tissue techniques. I am a huge believer in self-care and the power of exercise whether it’s gardening or a structured rehabilitation sessions.

I have experienced the power of osteopathy first hand that helped me manage and recover from various knee operations including two knee replacement surgeries.

I’m also highly qualified and experienced personal trainer. I specialise in the Over 50's client, exercise rehabilitation and people in pain. I will design a plan to get you moving and burning calories to work around your injuries, aches and pains.
