🎥 Changing the perception of what a sports clinic is.

You may start seeing this video appearing in some local gyms soon as we continue building stronger links with the training community.
Because Injury Mechanics isn’t just about massage.

We help people:
🔹 Recover from injury
🔹 Improve movement and strength
🔹 Return to sport with confidence

This video features Maria, Jonathan and Gus, giving a small insight into what we do.
But it’s not just the three of us. Injury Mechanics is growing, with a wider team already involved and more professionals joining us soon to expand what we offer.

This is just a glimpse.
More services, testing, collaborations, and projects are on the way.

🇭🇰🐾 What an experience!

Nicola and Fever competed at the Longines Hong Kong International Horse Show in its first ever dog agility competition 🤯

Across 5 rounds they came away with:
🥇 1st place
🥈 2 x 2nd places

All against an incredible field of international dogs and handlers 🌍

Before travelling, Nicola was in the clinic this week for treatment and to make sure everything felt moving well ahead of the demands of competing on the big stage 💪

Fever travelled in style, flying on a private charter with , arriving via ✈️🐶

A huge moment, a brilliant atmosphere, and memories that will last a lifetime.

Great day back at the University of Lancashire speaking to the 3rd year Sports Therapy students as an alumni.

I really enjoyed sharing my journey so far. Such as early clinical work, mental health settings, and sport, through running a clinic now. Hopefully giving a realistic picture of what a Sports Therapy career can look like beyond graduation.

Equally great to hear from the other alumni too, with some brilliant pathways, experiences, and perspectives in the room!

Always happy to give back to the course that started it all, and hopefully help the next group of therapists feel a bit more confident about what comes next.

👏 Thanks for having me.

🇭🇰🐕 Hong Kong International Horse Show – Agility Debut!

Our sponsored athlete Nicola and her dog Fever are competing at the first ever agility event to be held at the Hong Kong International Horse Show 🤯

✈️ Fever has travelled over on a private plane commissioned specially for the animals

🏃‍♀️ Competing in 5 events over 3 days
🏟️ Huge arena
🏖️ Deep, freshly laid sand for the humans to run on

😁From a rehab & therapy perspective:

Nicola has been doing great work on mobility since landing to adapt to the surface and arena demands — so they should be good to go 💪
Good luck Nicola & Fever — an incredible moment for UK & GB agility on the world stage 🌍

🍰So it was my birthday this week and it feels appropriate to post this now.....

📉 The Law of Daily Strain (LoDS)
As we age, it’s not that we can’t train hard &
it’s that we can’t stack as much stress in one day and bounce back the same way.

🧠 LoDS explains this: Your body has a daily strain budget. Training, work stress, poor sleep, steps, rehab.

🚨This is all spent from the same pot.

With age:

❌ The budget gets smaller
❌ Recovery takes longer
❌ The same session “costs” more

That’s why:

⏩You’re not training harder but feel more fatigued
⏩ Niggles appear despite “doing everything right”
⏩Progress stalls or injuries repeat

🔑 The fix isn’t doing more. It’s spending your strain budget better.

✔️ Fewer hard days
✔️ True low-strain recovery days
✔️ Less stacking of stress in one day
✔️ Better quality, not more volume

💡 You don’t have a weekly limit — you have a daily one.
