With IT Band Syndrome, repeatedly trying to ‘stretch the IT band’ may be missing part of the picture. Hip strength, movement control and training load can all matter.

Try these exercises progressively and keep them comfortable.

Persistent or worsening lateral knee pain deserves a proper assessment.

“Tech neck” is a simple way of describing the “neck and upper back” stiffness people often notice after spending long periods looking at phones, laptops and screens.

Do:

✅ Change position regularly
✅ Keep your neck and upper back moving
✅ Build strength and tolerance
✅ Break up long periods of sitting

Try these 3 movements during your desk day and save this reel for later.

If your neck pain is persistent, severe, causing headaches, numbness, tingling or weakness, get it properly assessed.

That doesn’t mean I’m ignoring their pain.

It means where you FEEL pain isn’t always the whole story.

Someone can point to one exact area and say: “Right there. That’s the problem.”

But I’m looking beyond that spot.

I’m looking at things such as:

• How they move
• What movements reproduce their symptoms
• Strength and load tolerance etc.

A good example is sciatica.

Someone might feel pain in their glute, hamstring, calf or even their foot, but repeatedly digging into the painful part of the leg isn’t always necessarily addressing why those symptoms are occurring.

The same principle can apply elsewhere; Pain is complicated.

It isn’t simply:

Pain here = damage here = treat here.

Would you trust the assessment, or would you think I’ve lost the plot?

The aim isn’t to force more movement.

It’s to expose the body to controlled movement while using the cups as a form of external sensory input and soft-tissue treatment; then reassess how the movement feels afterwards.

Range of motion can be influenced by more than just tight muscles; joint mechanics, tolerance to movement, pain, previous activity and the nervous system can all play a role.

Treat -> Move -> Reassess

Thousands of people in the UK spend hours sitting at a desk every day.

Tight hip flexors aren’t necessarily weak; they’re often just stuck in a shortened position from prolonged sitting.

Try these 2 movements to improve hip mobility, reduce hip stiffness, and help you move more comfortably.

If your lower back feels stiff when you first get out of bed but starts to ease after a few minutes of moving around, it’s often a sign that your body needs gentle movement before loading the spine; not necessarily that something is “out of place.”

Remember, persistent morning stiffness lasting longer than 30–60 minutes, worsening pain, or symptoms such as numbness, weakness, or bowel/bladder changes should be assessed by a healthcare professional.

Shin splints aren’t always about stretching.

Often the muscles around the shin and calf simply aren’t coping with the load.

High arches (Supinated Feet) aren’t always a problem, until they start affecting how you move.

If you tend to load the outside of your feet, these two simple exercises are a great place to start.
