Hiking with poles… do you use them? 🥾

Do you ever get sore knees or other joints when hiking and wonder what you can do to help?

Alongside strengthening to prepare you for the hike, the use of poles can help offload those joints.

Using poles can reduce knee joint load by around 20–25%, especially on downhill sections, by redistributing some of the force through your arms instead of your knees.

They also help with balance, stability, and can reduce fatigue over longer hikes.. meaning happier joints the next day.

If pain is stopping you enjoying the trails, a few simple strength exercises and small gear changes can make a huge difference.

Pregnancy mobility exercises 🤰
 These can also be great for anyone with tight hips who wants to get moving.

During pregnancy, that extra weight through your pelvis can contribute to stiffness through the hips and lower back. Gentle mobility helps keep things moving, reduce discomfort, and encourage hip opening to support your body as it prepares for labour.

Patrycja here is 33 weeks pregnant.

Try these at home:
 1️⃣ 90/90 hip rotations 2️⃣ Half-kneeling rocking lunges 3️⃣ Child’s pose with hip internal rotation 4️⃣ Supported deep squats 5️⃣ Swiss ball rock backs with internal rotation
6️⃣ Half-kneeling Swiss ball roll outs
7️⃣ Swiss ball hip circles 8️⃣Swiss ball pelvic tilts

Move slowly, stay within a comfortable range, and focus on relaxed breathing. If anything causes pain or doesn’t feel right, skip it and get individual advice from a physio.

What actually happens in a physio session?

Lately, I’ve been seeing more clients who have never had to see a physio before. First of all… well done! That usually means you’ve been striking a great balance between exercise and lifestyle.

But it also made me realise that a lot of people don’t actually know what to expect from a physio appointment, so here’s a little breakdown to help you feel prepared:

1️⃣ We talk. We start by going through your symptoms and history. We will ask quite a few questions to understand what’s going on and help form a diagnosis.

2️⃣ We assess your movement. This helps confirm what we’re seeing and identify what might be contributing to the issue.

3️⃣ We treat. Depending on your injury, this may include hands on treatment such as dry needling, massage, joint mobilisations, or taping. Then we may give you some exercises to support your rehab.

4️⃣ We educate. This is a big one. We want you to understand your injury so you know how to manage it, avoid making it worse, and get the best results between sessions.

Physio isn’t just about treatment, it’s about giving you the tools and confidence to move better and manage your injury.

Get in touch to book your appointment with us today.
