My first visit to Functional Movement Physio where I was assigned to Lucy for my knee pain. Lucy was very personable and easy to talk to, she listened to my issues and after examination explained the reasons I was having problems with my knee. Lucy engaged me in some gentle exercises which by the end of the session I felt had already proved beneficial to me and were easy enough for me to do at home. I left the clinic understanding what was causing my knee pain whilst also feeling positive and motivated about my future journey with FMP to a full recovery.

⚡ Shockwave Therapy Has Arrived at Functional Movement Physio

We’ve just been over to Manchester Performance Centre for an amazing Shockwave Therapy training day.

The whole team went so we could learn how to treat complex running injuries and stubborn tendon problems below the waist. Things like anterior knee pain, hamstring tendinopathy, hip tendon pain, Achilles issues, tibialis anterior problems and plantar fasciitis.

At Functional Movement Physio we believe it’s so important to keep investing in education so we can give our patients the best possible care.

We’ve also invested in a brand new shockwave unit and we’re already seeing some brilliant results with patients coming into the clinic.

If you’ve been struggling with a persistent tendon injury and nothing seems to be shifting it, this treatment can make a huge difference.

Book in with the team at Functional Movement Physio in Liverpool’s Baltic Triangle and let’s get you back to running, training and doing the things you love.

People are often told to stop their arch from dropping, as if letting the foot flatten is something to avoid.

In reality, that motion is a normal and necessary part of how the foot works.

When you constantly try to prevent it, the foot can lose its natural ability to absorb force. That pressure then has to be transferred somewhere else, often moving up the chain to the ankle, knee, hip, or even the lower back.

One common solution people turn to is orthotics designed to hold the arch in a fixed position.

But this can be similar to keeping your arm in a sling all day.

It might feel supportive at first, yet over time it can restrict the way the body is meant to move.

For many people, the real issue is that they’ve lost the ability to access and control this natural motion.

Simple tools, like wedges, can help the body rediscover and practice that movement instead of avoiding it entirely.

When you stop fighting pronation, you may notice your whole body starts moving more smoothly.

If you want help improving how your body moves, come and see us at Functional Movement Physio, 27 Norfolk Street in the Baltic Triangle.

Jordan is brilliant and knowledge about which areas to work on is second to none from what seemed an impossible task to get me half marathon ready coming back from an injury! The rehab exercises aren’t something you’ll just find on google, they are bespoke to the areas of weakness identified in the assessment. I’d highly recommend FM Physio!

Your hamstring isn’t “tight.” It’s asleep. 👀

And that sleepy hamstring?
It could be the real reason your knee and hip keep flaring up.

When a hamstring isn’t activating properly, other areas start picking up the slack.
👉 Your knee takes more load.
👉 Your hip works overtime.
👉 Pain shows up.

In the early stage, we don’t just smash it with heavy exercises.

We go:
âś… 20% hands-on treatment
âś… 80% isometric strengthening

Why?
Because you can’t strengthen a muscle that isn’t switching on.

First, we wake it up.
Then pain often starts settling down.
THEN we move to Phase 2 — real strength and stability work.
And eventually?
We build resilience.

That means:
🏋🏽 Heavy hamstring loading
🏋🏽‍♂️ 3RM. 5RM.
🏋🏽 Getting under the bar properly

Because rehab isn’t just about getting out of pain.
It’s about making sure it never comes back.

If your knee or hip pain “keeps returning”…
It might not be the joint.

It might be your hamstring.
