Thank you "D"& well done Richard! - I just wanted to say that I have just completed a Swiss ball class with Richard online. I have done one face to face with him but today's was fabulous and needs comment. He was great at demonstrating and suggesting adaptions but also brilliant at coaching during the sessions, correcting positions, explaining what was happening and informing you of where the work was happening and what you should be feeling. It was a great 'learning' class, that was really hard but I felt like I really worked and understood why I was hurting, stretching etc. He also has the gift of the gab and distracted us with information about the body and exercise as we worked. After a hard day at work, it was a great 'pick me up'. Praise for Richard, he's a great asset to your team. Thanks, D".

Well done “A” and “A’s mum” for this great feedback as part of the Platinum Follow-up Questionnaire” that patients receive.
“For the question above , I sent my mam to get her bad knee sorted which you guys did amazingly! The feedback from me is absolutely amazing the 3 times I've used the service twice for an injuries which have been 100% resolved still and once for a deep tissue just to keep everything free and loose! Will absolutely come back in the future for further deep tissue or treatments if and when I require! Big thanks to Neil, Richard and the team for everything!”

What a lovely update from Stephanie - well done! (On the THE UK SCIATICA Pain Support Group - Sciatic Nerve Back Pain Slipped Discs)·
"Long, but positive post! Massive shout out to Neil Sleeman and all the Platinum Physiotherapy and Personal Training, Durham, UK team who have been a life saver over the last few months and particularly this week. I've been attending the swiss ball classes since January when I had what I thought was a reherniation following surgery in 2021 and 2022. I had a 121 with Neil who very quickly reassured me that that wasn't the case and got me on the swiss ball and I have successfully doing weekly classes since then to build strength. Unfortunately at the beginning of this week I had some more pain in the back and was worried I'd done some serious damage as couldn't stand up straight. I spoke to the team and did my regular swiss ball class, albeit with some discomfort but was given adapted positions. I also spoke to Neil the next day who gave me some other exercises and we agreed to check in the next day after a 2nd swiss ball class he suggested I do. Neil assessed me (remotely) and again reassured me that there was nothing sinister and by the end of the session I was almost pain free. Fast forward to today and I am on holiday in Belgium (with my swiss ball!), something I didn't think would happen given the pain earlier in the week.
I honestly can't thank Neil enough, not only are his classes accessible to all as they can be done remotely and tailored to each person, but he is so supportive and always at the end of the phone. I never thought I would be a regular exercise class attendee, and now I'm going to to do three a week!
I've been a silent lurker in this group for many years and know how debilitating and lonely the pain can be. For anyone going through this I can't recommend Platinum enough"

❌ROTATOR CUFF RELATED SHOULDER PAIN ❌

The rotator cuff muscles help stabilise the shoulder and guide smooth movement. When they get irritated, movements like reaching overhead, lifting, or even sleeping can feel sore.

Here are 3 exercises we often use in rehab to build strength, control, and confidence in the shoulder:

🔹 Banded External Rotation with Step
👉 Targets the rotator cuff in a functional way — step out as you rotate and lift your arms to add controlled resistance.

🔹 Sword Drawer with Band
👉 Mimics drawing a sword — great for strengthening through range and encouraging shoulder opening.

🔹 Plank Shoulder Taps (or Wall Taps for an easier option)
👉 Challenges cuff endurance and shoulder stability, helping you tolerate load better in day-to-day tasks.

✅ Start with light resistance or the wall variation if painful.
✅ Slow and controlled reps are key.
✅ Gradually progress as strength and confidence improve.

Keep it consistent — the goal is not just pain relief but long-term resilience in your shoulder.
