We are a unique sports injury and physiotherapy clinic in Colchester

21/07/2025

🎊5 Years Today🎊

Today marks 5 years of our clinic in Stanway and a day we are even more grateful to our wonderful clients and partners.

Opening in COVID was a bold move, and we couldn't have done it without your support and trust.

We know there are a large number of great clinicians in the area, and it really means a lot to us all that you place your trust in us to help and support you.

We have gone from a very empty gym, to a rehab space that boasts some of the best equipment in the area - in particular our anti-gravity treadmill.

From seeing around 200 people a month to nearly 1,000.

We have helped people walk down the aisle for their wedding day, win world championships, walk to the shops, lift their grandchildren and get their identity back.

We feel truly privileged to be given this opportunity and we will never stop pushing ourselves to provide you with every opportunity to recover as fast and effectively as possible.

We have big plans for the next 5 years, this is only the beginning, but a great milestone to reflect and to say thanks.

Today in clinic we have a few bits going on.

Everyone who is seeing a clinician today can spin the spinner and win a prize if they would like - anything from money off your appointment to free screening sessions.

Please feel free to pop in over the day - there are cupcakes here for you to take.

Please do be aware though that we will be closed from 12:20 - 13:30 for the team to have a small lunch celebration.

Thanks again

Josh

🟢 Rehab can be enjoyable! 🔵

Balance training is key to improving strength, preventing falls, and speeding up recovery — and we’re all about making it fun! Using BlazePods, we challenge your brain and body to work together, keeping rehab both engaging and effective.

Did you know? Balance isn’t just about standing still — it’s a dynamic skill that improves with practice. The more you work on it, the better your coordination and stability will be, helping you stay safe and active in daily life.

Let’s make your recovery process not just a goal, but a journey you actually enjoy. 💪

Th #1 thing to get healthy?

The gym is not the only way! If you don’t like it, then don’t force it, there are so many options to get started on your health and fitness journey.

But you don’t have to be shouted at because your form wasn’t perfect, or because you had a square of chocolate in order to get fit.

Consistency beats perfection

And if you enjoy something you are far more likely to be consistent.

In Colchester we are so lucky to have so many options for exercise from walking, to the incredible cycle track, to padel courts and MMA gyms!

So stop looking for a quick fix or a fad that may or may not help, find something you enjoy and do it consistently.

Rehab shouldn’t be guesswork. We measure everything — and here’s why.👇

Most rehab plans rely on how something feels. But “feeling better” doesn’t always mean you’re moving better. That’s where we do things differently at Reflex-18.

We use VALD ForceDecks and the Dynamo to measure:
✅ Strength
✅ Balance
✅ Power
✅ Asymmetries
✅ Real progress — not just trusting what you’re told

No more “wait and see.”
We test → treat → retest until you’re better than before.

💡 Whether you’re coming back from injury or want to prevent the next one, data-driven rehab gets you there faster — and safer.

📲 Book your session now via the link in our bio — or save this post if you’re not quite ready yet.

Plantar fasciitis is common

There is a huge amount of information that’s easily accessed on Google, and most of it is really helpful.

But remember - much like other issues, plantar fasciitis is rarely cured by a single treatment that you do which resolves your pain quickly. It is often the result of a few things that all need addressing.

So use stretching, taping and massage to help symptoms - sometimes this will resolve the pain for you!

A home exercise plan may be needed though - specific for you. This can be created by finding predisposing issues and addressing them. It may involve balance work, hip work, knee work, and often a combination of these.

Custom insoles can be really helpful too which can offload the painful area and redistribute load.

If these things don’t work, there is always shockwave which can help, but don’t give up after a bit of stretching and massage.
