๐Ÿค Assessment is where recovery begins

At Recover Physio, every treatment starts with understanding you.

This means taking the time to assess:
โœ”๏ธ Your movement
โœ”๏ธ Your strength and mobility
โœ”๏ธ The root cause of your pain or discomfort
โœ”๏ธ Your goals - whether thatโ€™s returning to sport or everyday life

From there, we create a tailored treatment and rehab plan designed specifically for you.

No two injuries are the same - so your recovery shouldnโ€™t be either.

๐Ÿ’ก Whether itโ€™s a wrist issue, sports injury, or ongoing discomfort, getting the right diagnosis early can make all the difference in your recovery journey.

Looking for a way to relieve muscle tension and boost recovery?

Cupping therapy is a technique we use at Recover Physio to help support your bodyโ€™s natural healing process.

By creating gentle suction on the skin, cupping can:
โœ”๏ธ Increase blood flow to targeted areas
โœ”๏ธ Help release tight muscles and fascia
โœ”๏ธ Reduce pain and stiffness
โœ”๏ธ Support recovery from training or injury
โœ”๏ธ Promote relaxation and overall wellbeing

Those circular marks you may see after treatment are completely normal - theyโ€™re a sign of increased circulation in the area and typically fade within a few days.

Whether youโ€™re dealing with back tightness, sports-related soreness, or general muscle fatigue, cupping can be a great addition to your recovery plan.

Restore balance. Move better. Feel better.

At Recover Physio, our osteopathy treatments focus on getting to the root cause of pain, not just the symptoms.

Osteopathy is a hands-on approach that looks at how your muscles, joints and body systems work together - helping to restore function and support your bodyโ€™s natural healing process

Through a combination of manual techniques, our team can help:
โœ”๏ธ Reduce pain and stiffness
โœ”๏ธ Improve joint mobility and flexibility
โœ”๏ธ Relieve muscle tension
โœ”๏ธ Support recovery from injury
โœ”๏ธ Enhance overall movement and function

Whether youโ€™re dealing with back pain, sports injuries, or ongoing discomfort, osteopathy provides a personalised and holistic approach to your recovery.

Your body is connected - and when one area is restricted, it can impact everything else. Thatโ€™s why we treat you as a whole, not just the injury.

Following his clavicle surgery, one of the key priorities early on is maintaining gentle movement in the shoulder without overloading it - helping to prevent stiffness and muscle loss while healing continues.

Hereโ€™s one of the exercises heโ€™s currently doing โฌ‡๏ธ

๐Ÿ’ก Pendulum Movements (Early Stage Rehab)

Leaning forward to support the body, Allan allows the arm to move freely and performs:
โœ”๏ธ Gentle up & down movements
โœ”๏ธ Small controlled circles
โœ”๏ธ Circles in both directions

โš ๏ธ Important: Movement is kept below 90 degrees at this stage to protect the healing area.

๐Ÿ“ˆ Current routine:
๐Ÿ”น 3โ€“4 sets
๐Ÿ”น 10 repetitions
๐Ÿ”น Performed daily

This type of exercise helps:
โœ”๏ธ Maintain joint mobility
โœ”๏ธ Reduce stiffness
โœ”๏ธ Support circulation
โœ”๏ธ Minimise muscle wastage

Recovery isnโ€™t about rushing - itโ€™s about doing the right things at the right time.

Weโ€™ll keep sharing Allanโ€™s journey as he progresses through each phase ๐Ÿ’ช

โœ”๏ธ Sports injuries
โœ”๏ธ Muscle and joint pain
โœ”๏ธ Rehabilitation after surgery
โœ”๏ธ Mobility and movement issues

๐Ÿ’ฅ Struggling with Back Pain? Youโ€™re Not Alone.

Back pain is one of the most common issues we treat at Recover Physio, affecting people of all ages - whether itโ€™s caused by sport, work, posture, or simply everyday life.

In this session, Allan is using hands-on physiotherapy techniques to assess and treat the muscles and joints of the spine. Treatment is always tailored to the individual and may include manual therapy, mobility work, strengthening exercises, and guidance to help you move better and reduce pain long term.

Back pain can present in many different ways, including:
โœ”๏ธ Lower back pain
โœ”๏ธ Stiffness when bending or twisting
โœ”๏ธ Pain when sitting or standing for long periods
โœ”๏ธ Muscle spasms
โœ”๏ธ Pain that spreads into the hips or legs

The good news? Most back pain responds very well to the right assessment, treatment, and rehabilitation plan.

If back pain is limiting your day-to-day activities, sport, or work - our team is here to help get you moving comfortably again.

In the first couple of weeks after this type of injury, the surrounding muscles - particularly the neck and upper shoulder muscles - often become very tight as they guard and protect the injured area.

One simple way to help manage this is through gentle neck mobility and stretching exercises, such as:

โœ”๏ธ Pulling the chin gently back (chin tuck)
โœ”๏ธ Tilting the head to the side to stretch the neck
โœ”๏ธ Chin tuck combined with a slight downward angle towards the elbow

These movements help relieve tension through the neck and upper shoulder area while the collarbone continues to heal.

Even though the injured arm cannot move normally yet, itโ€™s still important to keep the rest of the body moving where safe to do so.

Allan recommends:
๐Ÿ”น 2โ€“3 sets
๐Ÿ”น 30 second holds
๐Ÿ”น Twice per day

He also performs the stretches on both sides, as the body tends to tighten symmetrically during injury recovery.

Recovery is a gradual process - but small, consistent steps like this can make a big difference early on.

Weโ€™ll continue to share Allanโ€™s rehab journey as he progresses ๐Ÿ‘

๐Ÿฆถ Ankle or Foot Pain? Letโ€™s Get You Moving Again.

From ankle sprains and Achilles issues to plantar fasciitis and persistent foot pain, problems in the foot and ankle can quickly impact your walking, running, training - and even everyday life.

Lizzy, one of our experienced physiotherapists here at Recover Physio, works hands-on to assess joint movement, muscle strength and biomechanics to get to the root cause of your symptoms - not just treat the pain.

Whether your pain started suddenly (like a twist or sports injury) or has gradually built up over time, early assessment and targeted rehab can make all the difference in recovery.

We regularly help with:
โœ”๏ธ Ankle sprains
โœ”๏ธ Achilles tendon pain
โœ”๏ธ Plantar fasciitis
โœ”๏ธ Tendon & ligament injuries
โœ”๏ธ Post-fracture rehab
โœ”๏ธ Running-related foot pain

Your feet carry you through life - letโ€™s make sure theyโ€™re supported properly ๐Ÿ‘ฃ

If ankle or foot pain is holding you back, weโ€™re here to help.

After the operation - which involved a plate and multiple screws - the first couple of days were understandably very painful. By day four, things had already started to settle, feeling more bruised and tender rather than acute pain, and heโ€™s now off pain medication ๐Ÿ™Œ

Right now, the focus is on protecting the shoulder and allowing healing to take place. For the first couple of weeks, activity will be very limited before gradually building movement and strength back up step by step.

Recovery takes patience - even when you know the process - but progress is already happening and weโ€™ll continue to share updates along the way ๐Ÿ‘

If youโ€™re recovering from surgery or injury, remember that the early stages are all about rest, protection, and trusting the process ๐Ÿค
