Brilliant 👏

Healed ACL 💥
Great post by .sportsphysio:

"Another great result for our client, who initially tore her ACL playing soccer - felt a pop, knee gave way, and MRI confirmed a full rupture. She was told by a specialist she’d never return to sport without a reconstruction.

Instead, we followed a 12-week weight-bearing bracing protocol (BLEX) with a knee extension block, alongside progressive strength, balance, and control training.

12-week MRI result: “Healing of the anterior cruciate with normally aligned ligament fibres (ACLOAS grade 1)”

✅ Pivot shift = negative
✅ Lachman Test = negative

A stable, healed ACL - no surgery required."

🧠 Too Much Screen Time?

School holidays often mean more time on devices. But slouching over screens can lead to a lack of movement, back pain and fatigue.

💡Physios can:
✅ Recommend stretching routines
✅ Guide kids through movement breaks

Let’s protect little bodies from big problems!

🧊❄️ Top 5 Physio Tips for Winter! 🧣🧘‍♂️
As the temperature drops, our bodies often feel the chill too — stiff joints, less movement, and more aches and pains.

👉 Follow along this week as we share 5 physiotherapy tips to help you stay active and healthy this winter!

2️⃣ Make Movement Part of Your Routine

🕒 When it’s cold and dark, it’s easy to skip exercise — but consistency is key for healthy joints and muscles!

💡 Tip: Schedule movement like a meeting. Even 10–15 minutes daily can improve mobility, boost mood, and reduce winter stiffness.

🏠 Try:

Morning stretches while the kettle boils

Lunchtime walks around the office or house

Evening mobility exercises while watching TV

📅 Small, regular movement = big long-term results!

Need help creating a winter-friendly routine? Your physiotherapist can help you build one that fits your lifestyle.

Today is International Fibromyalgia Awareness Day!

Whilst the debate about how to classify Fibromyalgia continues, we believe people living with this condition still need our best clinical care and support.
Do you agree?

So, clinicians can better help people with Fibromyalgia by:
1. Educating them accurately about pain and other symptoms in this syndrome (Join us for “Principles of Pain” - Module 1 of the Certificate in Pain Management)
2. Learning better communication skills that improve the therapeutic partnership (Join us for “Clinical Communication skills” - Module 2 of the Certificate in Pain Management)
3. Designing treatment plans that are based on comprehensive assessment and good clinical reasoning that target the multiple mechanisms underlying the condition (Join us for “CLEAR” - Module 3 of the Certificate in Pain Management)
And then integrating evidence-based approaches, like graded physical activity, into effective treatment plans and group programmes for people with Fibromyalgia (Join us for “DEFT” and other intervention-focussed modules of the Certificate in Pain Management)
