Therapist Beth and students from Southampton Solent recently supported the BBC Thousand mile challenge raising money for Children in Need.

Teams at radio stations across the country took on the incredible task of walking a total of one thousand miles – three-legged – all to raise vital funds for children and young people across the UK.

The sports therapists were helping make this challenge safe, inclusive, and empowering. They provided

– Expert guidance on physical preparation and warm-ups

– Advice on teamwork and coordination for three-legged walking

– Tips for hydration, recovery, and injury prevention

Well done to all involved.

Beth has a weekly Wednesday evening clinic with us from 3pm to 8pm.

👋🧗 Trigger finger in a rock climber

In the clinic this week has been a rock climber with trigger finger. This is a common injury coming from the tendon or tendon sheath of the finger flexor tendon.

Treatment consists of actively improving the tendon using fascial release alongside exercises to maintain positioning and taping techniques.

With some modifications our climber has still been able to do some climbing so he’s happy and we are improving session on session.

🩼 Post Operation Rehabilitation

Fixations due to broken bones, joint replacements, ligament repairs. We help return clients from a wide variety of surgical interventions back to their sports.

We track progress closely using range of motion and strength scores to know the exact time to advance treatment and can provide these reports to your surgery team so they can see your strength progress too.

“I broke my ankle in 3 places and dislocated my foot,that night I had surgery and some screws and a plate were fitted to hold it all together. I was told I probably wouldn’t ride a bike for 10/12 months.

I started physio with Tom initially with a session a week for six weeks. I was back to work as soon as possible and I’m back riding my bike 6 months earlier than expected!” Harvey 55 year old mountain biker.

⚡️Shockwave Therapy.

We are pleased to now be utilising shockwave therapy as part of our treatments. A therapy that works to reduce pain, stimulate healing and remodel chronic injuries that just aren’t improving.

Particularly benefical in tendon issues such as

- Achillies Tendon Pain
- Patella Tendon Pain
- Tennis Elbow
- Plantar Fasciitis

Shockwave has 70-80% success rate in applicable conditions and works alongside our other physiotherapy modalities.

I am delighted to bring shockwave therapy to help the active population in Romsey get back to the sports they love quicker - Tom.

Vida Physio provides all ages and fitness levels access to the same elite physio that athletes receive.

Instrument assisted soft tissue mobilisation (IASTM)

A treatment I have been using in therapy since 2015. The aim is to disrupt fascial restrictions and scar tissue. It’s creates a controlled healing response and assists to remodel tissue.

Like all other physiotherapy interventions it needs to be combined with individualised exercises to maintain any benefits.

The tool might look a bit like a knuckleduster but is designed with curves for different areas of the body such as behind the shoulder or around the foot.

Football is well and truly back for another season. Early on in my physiotherapy career I worked in professional football. This was from a preseason friendly Notts County vs Galatasaray.

A neck injury to our keeper meant a team effort to spinal board the player off, he made a full recovery. Our efforts were being watched over by a certain ex Chelsea striker.

Please excuse the awful haircut, I had only just moved to Nottingham and clearly didn’t know the best barber to go to!
