There’s lots of ways to know if your strength is improving and lots of different tests we can do in clinic. Strength gains usually translate into your day to day life eg. feeling you can lift that heavier shopping bag or go up a weight in your gym lifts. But sometimes when we put the hard work in and we can’t see the smaller changes it can be hard to stay motivated during longer periods of rehab.

That’s where objective data comes in… not only to guide better decision making for us as clinicians in the first place….. but also to help you see where your strengths and weaknesses lie without guessing throughout the journey.
We use hand-held dynamometry to support you in your rehab journey.

If you want to learn more about how we can help you on your journey give us a call on 📞 0858558836 or use our online booking platform - link is in the bio.

How can I stay fit when I’m injured?

The important bit:

The best alternative depends on you and your injury. The aim isn’t simply to find something that doesn’t hurt, it’s to find an activity that allows you to maintain fitness without interfering with your recovery which will look different for everyone. For example if you’re a swimmer who has a shoulder injury we may recommend a static bike option for maintaining your cardiovascular fitness. Or if you have recently injured your calf an upper body ergometer may be a nice option to maintain your aerobic capacity.

Being injured doesn’t necessarily mean doing nothing at all. It might just mean training differently for a while. And that’s where we can help you out.

Book via our online booking system.

October is here 🍂 — and for a lot of people, that means OFF-SEASON.

After a long season of training, matches, competing and pushing your body, this period gives you something you might not have had much of over the past few months: TIME.

Time to switch off.
Time to reconnect with family and friends.
Time to recover.
And importantly… time to address the things you’ve been putting off.

That niggle you’ve been playing through?
That shoulder that’s never quite felt right?
That knee that aches after training?
That hamstring that keeps “tightening up”?

Don’t wait until pre-season to deal with it.

The off-season is the perfect time to have those niggles properly assessed by a physiotherapist, identify what may be contributing to them and put a plan in place to address them.

It also gives you the opportunity to work on the things that often get pushed aside during a busy season — strength, mobility, conditioning, resilience and injury prevention.

Rather than simply hoping you’ll feel better by pre-season, use the next few months to build yourself back stronger and more resilient for the season ahead.

Your off-season isn’t just time away from sport.
It’s an opportunity to prepare for what comes next. 💪

Well firstly, ask yourself: do you feel you have actually earned the right to return to running in your rehabilitation?

Before returning to running, we look at a some of the key areas:

1. PAIN
Is your pain well controlled and not consistently flaring up as you progress with your loading?

2. STRENGTH & CAPACITY
Have you regained the different strength qualities required from the major muscle groups to safely tolerate running?

3. FORCE
Have you regained the capacity to both produce and absorb force sufficiently to handle the demands of running?

4. CONFIDENCE
Do you feel you are confident in your body to tolerate running as your rehabilitation progresses?

Return to running safely is earned by meeting specific criteria for progression throughout your rehab journey, and timeframes can be helpful but should not decide this alone.

For example : Patient A may be 4 weeks into their journey and hitting all their criteria for progression.

Patient B may be 6 weeks into the same rehab journey with the same injury but not hitting those same criteria, and therefore may take slightly longer to progress.

If you’re struggling with recurrent injuries and unsure whether you’re ready to run… please reach out and we can help you answer these questions and get back to doing what you love, safely and confidently.
