Blackberry Orthopaedic Clinic We offer a multi-disciplinary approach to painful musculoskeletal conditions and sports injuries

Established in 1988, the Blackberry Clinic now has 10 centres across England and Scotland and has developed an international reputation for its work in treating back pain and sports injuries. A holistic approach to managing our patients' health is the key to this success.

Patients may need to be seen by several different specialists to optimise recovery and rehabilitation. At the Blackberry Clinic, we have a wide range of practitioners to facilitate this. The Clinic is committed to helping all individuals achieve their personal goals free of pain - this may be playing football with their children, a comfortable night’s sleep or completing a day at the computer.

Many runners focus solely on running, but incorporating strength training can prevent injuries and improve performance. Here’s why you should add it to your routine:

𝘗𝘳𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘐𝘯𝘫𝘶𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘴: Strengthen muscles and connective tissues to handle running loads. This helps in avoiding tissue overload, which can occur from sudden increases in training intensity or mileage.

𝘙𝘶𝘯 𝘍𝘢𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘳: Improve neuromuscular coordination and power, which translates to better speed and performance.

𝘉𝘰𝘰𝘴𝘵 𝘌𝘧𝘧𝘪𝘤𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘺: Enhance running economy and stride efficiency, making your runs more effective and less tiring.

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀:

𝘐𝘯𝘫𝘶𝘳𝘺 𝘗𝘳𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯: Strength training helps in building a resilient body that can withstand the physical demands of running. This is crucial as many runners lead sedentary lives outside of their training, which can lead to muscle imbalances and weaknesses.

𝘔𝘶𝘴𝘤𝘭𝘦 𝘔𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦: After the age of 30, muscle mass naturally declines. Strength training helps maintain and build muscle mass, ensuring your body remains strong and capable.

𝘉𝘢𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘥 𝘍𝘪𝘵𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴: Avoid letting your aerobic fitness outpace your structural fitness (bones, tendons, ligaments, and muscles). This balance is key to preventing injuries.

𝗣𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗧𝗶𝗽𝘀:

𝘍𝘳𝘦𝘲𝘶𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘺: Aim for 1-2 strength training sessions per week.

𝘌𝘹𝘦𝘳𝘤𝘪𝘴𝘦𝘴: Focus on compound movements like lunges and squats. These exercises target multiple muscle groups and are effective for building strength.

𝘉𝘰𝘥𝘺𝘸𝘦𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘌𝘹𝘦𝘳𝘤𝘪𝘴𝘦𝘴: If weights are intimidating, start with bodyweight exercises. They can still provide significant strength benefits.

𝘗𝘳𝘰𝘧𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭 𝘎𝘶𝘪𝘥𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦: Consult with a physiotherapist or a fitness professional to create a personalised plan that addresses your specific strengths and weaknesses.

𝘙𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘮𝘣𝘦𝘳: Strength training is about building strength, not bulking up. The goal is to support your running, not to gain massive muscle mass.

These can be relatively common after more significant knee injuries or surgery. Good news is, with the guidance from an expert these shouldn’t stop you achieving your goals if treated promptly! Quadriceps lag is when your quadriceps muscle can't fully extend your knee actively, even though it can be done passively. This can be due to muscle weakness, injury, or pain.

𝗦𝘆𝗺𝗽𝘁𝗼𝗺𝘀:
- Difficulty fully extending the knee
- Muscle weakness

𝗧𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁:
- Strengthening exercises (e.g., squats, lunges)
- Neuromuscular training
- Physical therapy

Strengthening your quads can improve knee function and reduce pain. If you suspect quadriceps lag, consult a healthcare professional for a tailored treatment plan.

It is so good to hear when a patient is pain free after osteopathy treatment This patient contacted us to pass on her thanks and let us know how effective her treatment has been. This is lovely news and we are delighted to hear it. Osteopaths treat MSK conditions causing pain.

Osteopathy is a form of manual therapy which uses gentle manual techniques to restore structures of the body (skeleton, muscles, ligaments and connective tissues) to a state of balance and harmony. Osteopathy is a perfect treatment for all ages from the young to the very elderly, including pregnant women.

Osteopaths can treat a variety of complaints including headaches, neck pain, hip and knee pain, soft tissue injury and back pain.

If you or someone you know is living with osteoarthritis, there are effective treatments to alleviate symptoms and improve quality of life. Here’s a guide to some common OA treatment options:

𝗣𝗵𝘆𝘀𝗶𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗽𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗘𝘅𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗶𝘀𝗲
A tailored exercise program from a physiotherapist can strengthen muscles around affected joints, improve mobility, and reduce pain.

𝗠𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗢𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀
Over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen and NSAIDs (e.g., ibuprofen) can provide temporary relief. In some cases, doctors may prescribe stronger medications or recommend injections of corticosteroids or hyaluronic acid to manage symptoms.

𝗝𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁 𝗜𝗻𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗽𝗶𝗲𝘀
For more severe cases, joint injections can relieve inflammation and pain. Clinics like Blackberry Clinic offer interventional therapies to reduce pain and improve joint function.

𝗔𝘀𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗲𝘀
Using supportive aids, like braces or orthotic insoles, can help to offload pressure from affected joints and make everyday activities more manageable.

𝗦𝘂𝗿𝗴𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗢𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀
When conservative treatments are no longer effective, joint replacement surgery might be an option. Surgery can relieve pain, restore joint function, and improve mobility.

Osteoarthritis is a manageable condition, and with the right combination of preventive measures and treatments, you can enjoy an active, fulfilling life. If you’re dealing with OA, our team at Blackberry Clinic is here to support you with expert guidance and customised care options.

While some factors that contribute to OA are beyond our control, such as genetics or age, lifestyle modifications can significantly reduce your risk. Here are proactive ways to help prevent or delay the onset of osteoarthritis:

𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘆 𝗔𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲
Regular exercise keeps joints flexible, strengthens muscles, and reduces the strain on joints. Activities like swimming, walking, and cycling are low-impact exercises that help keep joints in good condition without overstressing them.

𝗠𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗮 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵𝘆 𝗪𝗲𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁
Any additional weight adds load on your joints, particularly your knees, hips, and spine. Studies show that even a modest weight loss can reduce the risk of OA and alleviate joint pain for those already affected.

𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗝𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁𝘀
Avoid repetitive stress on joints whenever possible, especially if your job or hobbies require such activities. When lifting heavy items, use proper techniques to avoid unnecessary stress on your back and knees.

𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵𝘆 𝗗𝗶𝗲𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗔𝗻𝘁𝗶-𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗹𝗮𝗺𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗙𝗼𝗼𝗱𝘀
A balanced diet rich in antioxidants, omega-3 fatty acids, and anti-inflammatory foods can support joint health. Foods like leafy greens, berries, and fatty fish are excellent options.

In Part 3, we’ll look at treatment options and how to manage symptoms if you’re already experiencing OA.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common joint disorder affecting millions worldwide, particularly as people age. Known as the “wear-and-tear” form of arthritis, OA occurs when the cartilage cushioning the ends of bones in your joints deteriorates over time, causing bones to rub against each other. This can lead to pain, stiffness, and a gradual loss of mobility.

𝗖𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗥𝗶𝘀𝗸 𝗙𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘀
Several factors increase the risk of developing OA, including:

𝘼𝙜𝙚: The likelihood of OA increases with age as the cartilage in our joints naturally wears down.

𝙅𝙤𝙞𝙣𝙩 𝙄𝙣𝙟𝙪𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙨: Injuries, even if they occurred years ago, can lead to OA.

𝙊𝙗𝙚𝙨𝙞𝙩𝙮: Extra body weight adds stress on weight-bearing joints, accelerating cartilage breakdown.

𝙂𝙚𝙣𝙚𝙩𝙞𝙘𝙨: A family history of OA can make you more susceptible.

𝙊𝙘𝙘𝙪𝙥𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙇𝙞𝙛𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙮𝙡𝙚: Repetitive stress on joints from certain jobs or sports can increase OA risk.

𝗦𝘆𝗺𝗽𝘁𝗼𝗺𝘀
Common symptoms of OA include:

𝙋𝙖𝙞𝙣 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙏𝙚𝙣𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙨: Discomfort during or after movement, and tenderness when applying light pressure.

𝙎𝙩𝙞𝙛𝙛𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙨 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙇𝙤𝙨𝙨 𝙤𝙛 𝙁𝙡𝙚𝙭𝙞𝙗𝙞𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙮: Especially noticeable after inactivity.

𝙎𝙬𝙚𝙡𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙄𝙣𝙛𝙡𝙖𝙢𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣: Caused by increased fluid in the joint.
Grating Sensation: A sensation of grating or grinding, due to bone-on-bone contact.

In Part 2, we’ll discuss steps you can take to help prevent OA and maintain joint health.
