Ongoing Shoulder Pain? 😓

Your Latissimus Dorsi (Lats) might be playing a bigger role than you think 👀

Research shows that increased lat tightness can alter shoulder mechanics, limit overhead range, and increase stress on the shoulder joint, all potential contributors to ongoing pain 📚

When the lats are stiff, the shoulder often has to compensate ⚖️

At Crouch Physio, we don’t just treat where it hurts ❌

We take the time to find the root cause of your shoulder pain and build a clear, individualised plan to get you moving with confidence again 📈

✅ Detailed assessment�
✅ Targeted rehab exercises�
✅ Manual therapy to help reduce symptoms�
✅ A holistic approach to long-term shoulder health

Because lasting results come from understanding why the pain is there, not just chasing symptoms💡

Here you can see Advanced Soft Tissue Therapist Rohan getting those Lats right! Book in to see one of our specialists and take the first step towards long-term pain relief ☑️

LOGO UPDATE 💫
  
Clinical Director Lewis Crouch is proud to unveil Crouch Physio’s brand-new logo as we head into the new year.  
  
“I am delighted to introduce our new logo, a refresh that has been in development for the past six months. The original logo I created in 2019, before I had even graduated from physiotherapy school, will always hold great sentimental value. However, as Crouch Physio has grown, it felt like the right time for a fresh identity that better reflects the expert level of care we deliver today.”

WEAK GLUTES? 😬

Research shows that reduced glute strength and activation is linked to low back pain, hip pain, knee pain, and running-related injuries. When the glutes aren’t doing their job of controlling the pelvis and femur, other structures are forced to compensate, and that’s where pain often starts 😢

The good news? Targeted strengthening works 💪�
These evidence-based exercises help improve glute activation, load tolerance, and pelvic control:

• Elevated single-leg glute bridge: increases glute max activation and pelvic stability�• Side-lying weighted hip abduction: targets glute med to improve hip control�• Standing resisted hip abduction: builds functional strength for walking and running�• Single-leg weighted hip thrusts: restores strength through range under load

✅ Stronger glutes = better load distribution �✅ Better control = less strain elsewhere�✅ Less strain = less pain

If pain keeps coming back, it’s often not about stretching more, it’s about strengthening smarter ☑️

A physiotherapy assessment with one of our specialists can identify whether weak or under-performing glutes are contributing to your symptoms and guide the right progressions for you ⭐️

Releasing Neck Tension ✅  
  
Neck feeling tight? You’re not alone - the muscles that support and move your head are some of the most common sources of stiffness, reduced mobility, and headaches.  
  
For this client at Crouch Physio, Advanced Soft Tissue Therapist Rohan is working through key muscles that often become overloaded:  
  
✨ Upper trapezius
✨ Levator scapulae
✨ Scalenes
✨ Sternocleidomastoid (SCM)
✨ Suboccipitals  
  
These muscles are essential for posture, breathing mechanics, and coordinated cervical movement. Research shows they’re also among the first to tense up with stress, prolonged sitting, screen use, and altered movement patterns. Studies have linked tightness in these areas to tension-type headaches, reduced cervical range of motion, and neck pain associated with forward-head posture.  
  
By applying targeted soft-tissue therapy, we work to:  
✔️ Restore normal muscle length and tone
✔️ Improve joint mobility
✔️ Decrease pain sensitivity
✔️ Reduce headache frequency
✔️ Support healthier, long-term movement patterns  
  
The goal isn’t just short-term relief, it’s improving how your neck function so you can move, work, and train with less pain and more freedom: LONG TERM RESILIENCE 📈
