Some people will need a doctor’s tablet

BUT, it will do you no harm to exhaust every other avenue before you accept this conclusion.
Unfortunately, we live in a day & age where there seems to be a tablet for everything.

We all have the ability to read data and conduct our own studies, there is literally a world of research at our fingertips, and we should be able to challenge opinions, especially when it comes to YOUR health.

.
I get asked a lot if I still provide Personal Training sessions?

I still provide limited sessions
(Daytime Only).
💪
I will be taking a small number of clients on in the new year 40 years and over.

Why 40 +????

In your 20s & 30s it’s results first & injury management second.
In your 40s it’s the opposite !!!!

Drop me a DM if you want to get back on track in 2025

One Smack in for his final session before chasing European & Commonwealth honours at the weekend.
🥊
Waited patiently as ever and his time has come.
🥊
AND THE NEW………….
🥊

14/05/2024

Had one smack in today with a slight lateral pelvic tilt.
Common issue in boxers who maintain certain body positions for long periods of time.
Like most muscular issues/imbalances they are generally due to the positions we spend the most time in.
Sat at a desk, in a car etc etc
🥊
After one session we had him in a much better position!🥊
We will work on it during the next few weeks and ensure he is firing on all cylinders come fight night.
🥊
Fight news soon…………

SCIATICA more commonly Piriformis Syndrome
⬇️⬇️
🔥 Dealing with Piriformis Syndrome?
Here’s your game plan for relief! 🔥
1️⃣ Stretch it out: Targeted stretches can help loosen tight muscles and ease discomfort.
2️⃣ Foam rolling: Roll out tension in the piriformis muscle to alleviate pressure on the sciatic nerve.
3️⃣ Heat therapy: Apply heat packs to soothe soreness and promote muscle relaxation.
4️⃣ Posture perfection: Maintain proper alignment to prevent exacerbating symptoms.
5️⃣ Seek guidance - drop me a message 📧
⚡️
Unlocking the secrets of sciatica and piriformis syndrome! 🧠💡 Did you know that the sciatic nerve can sometimes get irritated by the piriformis muscle? Here’s the lowdown:
🔹 Sciatica: Often caused by compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve, leading to pain, numbness, or tingling down the leg.
🔹 Piriformis Syndrome: When the piriformis muscle spasms or tightens, it can irritate the nearby sciatic nerve, causing similar symptoms.
🔍 Understanding the connection between these two can help tailor your treatment approach.

Knee pain & Mobility issue

We performed :-

Acupuncture

ROM (range of movement) upon re-test had significantly improved ⬆️
