Rehabbing an Insertional Tendinopathy Back to Parkrun

This client came to us with pain right where the tendon attaches to the bone — what we call an insertional tendinopathy (or enthesiopathy). It’s a stubborn one, but completely rehab-able with the right approach ✅

We’re focusing on:
🏋️‍♂️ Gradual strength loading (without flaring symptoms)
🦵 Improving tendon capacity and control
🏃‍♀️ Rebuilding running tolerance step by step

Our goal? A pain-free return to Pontefract Parkrun — strong, confident, and enjoying every stride again 💪

If you’ve had a tendon issue that just won’t settle — Achilles, hamstring, glute, or otherwise — this is your sign to get it checked.

💪 How Strong Are You?

Most people measure their fitness by how flexible they are — like whether they can touch their toes.
But one of the most important tests of long-term health and independence isn’t flexibility…
It’s how easily you can stand up from a chair without using your hands.

This simple sit-to-stand movement tells us a lot about your leg strength, balance, and stability — all of which are vital for staying mobile and preventing falls as you age.

👉 If standing up from low surfaces feels difficult, it might be time to focus on strength and balance training.
Improving this one movement can make daily life easier, boost your confidence, and lower your risk of falls.

At Ropergate Physio Clinic, our highly experienced clinicians work with people of all ages and stages of life — helping you stay strong, steady, and independent. And we won’t just make you practice sit to stands!

3 physio exercises you absolutely shouldn’t do if you want bulletproof shoulders… 😉

1️⃣ Definitely don’t do this… unless you want to improve your scapular mobility and free up all those knots in your shoulders.
2️⃣ Definitely don’t do this… unless you want to make the first gains even bigger by working your muscles through different planes of movement.
3️⃣ Absolutely don’t do this… unless you want to train your back, core, and legs all at once for better postural control — plus improved hamstring flexibility and less lower back pain.

👉 Want to protect your shoulders, recover from injury, or just move better? We help people of all ages rehab, get stronger, and reach their functional goals. Book in with us today!

Case Study: Getting Back to the Gym & Running After Shoulder Injury 💪

This female athlete had been struggling with a frozen shoulder for nearly a year, experiencing significant pain and restricted movement after a fairly innocuous gym injury! She came to Ropergate Physio Clinic looking for a way to get back to the gym and running like she used to.

Since starting treatment, we’ve used a combination of hands-on therapy, acupuncture, and tailored exercise programs to:
• Reduce pain
• Improve tissue stiffness and compliance
• Restore shoulder mobility
• Gradually return her to the activities she loves

One of our main goals over from the start was for her to back squat again, which required full shoulder movement. At a recent session, she achieved this milestone—just look at how happy she is! 🎉

If you’re experiencing pain, restricted movement, or struggling to get back to your sport or workouts, we can help you too.

Diabetes & Foot Health 👣💙
Regular foot reviews can spot small issues before they turn into bigger problems. A quick check could help keep you safe, active, and comfortable.

Why Diabetic Foot Reviews Are So Important

If you live with diabetes, regular foot reviews are a vital part of your health care. Diabetes can reduce blood flow and nerve sensation in the feet, meaning small cuts, blisters, or changes can go unnoticed and develop into serious problems.

A diabetic foot review helps to:
✔️ Check circulation and sensation
✔️ Spot early signs of damage or infection
✔️ Prevent ulcers and long-term complications

At Ropergate Physio Clinic, our team can provide thorough checks and clear advice to keep your feet healthy and protected.

👉 Don’t wait for a problem to appear—book your diabetic foot review today.
