What is shockwave therapy?

Shockwave therapy is a non-invasive treatment commonly used for irritated or persistent tendon pain.

It works by delivering sound waves to the affected area, helping stimulate healing within the tendon.

It’s often used for conditions such as Achilles tendon pain or tennis elbow, and is typically delivered as a short course of treatments over several weeks.

Importantly, shockwave therapy works best when combined with a well-structured strengthening programme to address the underlying tendon load.

The LBSM Newsletter highlights how most musculoskeletal injuries can heal effectively with the right approach. 🦴

During recovery, symptoms like pain, stiffness, and swelling can guide when to rest.

These signals are part of the body’s natural healing process and should not be ignored.

Managing activity levels and allowing time to recover can support a safe return to function.

Understanding these stages helps reduce setbacks and improves long-term outcomes.

Creatine is one of the most researched supplements - but it’s often misunderstood.

It doesn’t directly build muscle. Instead, it increases the availability of energy for short bursts of high-intensity effort.

That extra capacity can help you train a little harder - which is where the real performance benefits come from.

Research is also beginning to explore potential benefits for cognitive performance and mental energy.

Carbs aren’t the enemy - they’re fuel 🔋

In this clip, Kate Shilland breaks down one of the most common misconceptions in nutrition: the idea that carbohydrates are something to avoid.

In reality, carbs play a vital role in supporting energy, performance, and recovery - while protein, despite its reputation, is often overemphasised.

It’s not about cutting foods out — it’s about understanding what your body actually needs to perform at its best.

Why use ultrasound for injections?

Ultrasound guidance allows clinicians to see the needle in real time and deliver medication precisely to the area being treated.

It’s a more accurate approach and is typically used alongside rehabilitation strategies such as physiotherapy and strengthening.

Fuel isn’t just about calories - it’s about performance ⚡️

In this clip, Kate Shilland explains why the way you fuel your body directly impacts how you train, recover, and perform.

From building muscle to sustaining energy, giving your body what it actually needs is key — and sometimes that starts with understanding your baseline. Tools like metabolic testing can help take the guesswork out and give you a clearer picture of what your body requires day to day.

“Is my injection going to hurt?”

It’s one of the most common questions we hear.

The honest answer is that injections can cause a small amount of discomfort. However, when performed properly, plenty of local anaesthetic is used to ensure the area is well numbed and the procedure is as comfortable as possible.

Understanding what to expect can make the process much less daunting.
