🏃🏻‍♀️ Today officially marks the start of my training for the New York City Marathon 🇺🇸🗽

So… apologies in advance for the influx of running posts, long run updates, Strava screenshots, foam rolling content and discussions about carb loading 🤭

As a physio, I love helping people through their training journeys… but there’s something really important about putting yourself through the process too. The highs, the ni**les, the tired legs, the motivation dips and the excitement of working towards a huge goal.

I’ll be sharing a bit of the journey along the way — the good runs, the tough runs and everything in between 👟

Now… let the marathon training begin 🙌🏻

“Tell me about your symptoms… not just your diagnosis (or what Google says your diagnosis is 🤭).”

What actually matters is how it’s affecting YOU 👇

• “I can’t sleep properly.”
• “I’m struggling on runs.”
• “I can’t sit comfortably at work.”
• “My shoulder hurts every time I lift my arm.”
• “I’m stiff every morning.”

Two people can have the same diagnosis but completely different symptoms and limitations.

And whilst Dr Google can sometimes be helpful… some exercises you find online may actually be making things worse 👀

That’s why physio is about more than treating a label — it’s about understanding the person behind it and finding the right approach for YOU.

✨ Not all injections are steroids…

Many people are surprised to learn that Ostenil® hyaluronic acid injections are another option that may help with joint pain and stiffness.

Unlike steroid injections, Ostenil® is designed to help support the joint’s natural lubrication and shock absorption — particularly in joints affected by wear and tear changes such as osteoarthritis.

Why some people choose Ostenil®

✔ No corticosteroid medication
✔ Designed to improve joint lubrication and movement
✔ May help reduce pain and stiffness
✔ Often chosen by people wanting an alternative to repeated steroid injections
✔ Can help support activity and rehabilitation goals

Many clients describe:
✨ Easier movement
✨ Less stiffness
✨ Improved comfort during walking, stairs or exercise
✨ Better confidence returning to activity

Results vary from person to person, and not everyone is suitable, which is why a detailed assessment is always carried out first.

💡 Ostenil® is not a “quick fix” — it works best as part of a wider rehabilitation approach including strength work, mobility and load management.

📲Message to book an assessment or find out whether Ostenil® may be appropriate for you.

🏃‍♀️ Pre-London Marathon prep….

Jill was in clinic this morning getting some TECAR therapy ahead of the big day 🇬🇧✨

When you’re putting in the miles for something like the London Marathon, little ni**les can quickly become bigger problems if you ignore them 👀

TECAR therapy is something I use a lot with runners because it can help:
🔥 Reduce pain + muscle tightness
🔄 Improve circulation + healing
💪 Support recovery between training sessions
⚡ Get you feeling looser and moving better

👉 Perfect in the lead-up to a race when you want to stay training but manage symptoms properly

This isn’t about a “quick fix” — it’s about keeping you moving well and giving your body the best chance on race day 🙌

Good luck Jill… you’ve done the hard work 👏👏

Cannot wait for this!! 💗🙌

Grace and I will be there — aiming for as many laps as we can manage…
(jogging, walking… crawling by the end most likely 😂)

If you’ve been thinking about getting involved — this is your sign 👀
All abilities welcome and such a great local cause 💗

After 20+ years as a physio… I still get injuries too 👀🤦‍♀️

Here’s what I actually do when something flares up 👇

1️⃣ I don’t panic 😌
Pain doesn’t always mean something’s damaged

2️⃣ I keep moving 🚶‍♀️
I don’t stop everything — I just adjust

3️⃣ I don’t just “rest it” 🛑
That rarely fixes it on its own

4️⃣ I stick to a plan 📋
Not random exercises when I remember

5️⃣ I accept it might be a bit sore 🤷‍♀️
But it should settle — not flare up

6️⃣ I make sure I’m eating & sleeping properly 🥗😴
Basic… but it matters

7️⃣ I don’t expect it to be perfect every day 📉📈
Some days are better than others

8️⃣ I look at progress over weeks — not days 📆
Zoom out, not in

9️⃣ I focus on getting stronger again 💪
That’s where the real change happens

🔟 I don’t rush back too quickly ⏳
That’s where setbacks happen

This is exactly what I do with clients in clinic too 🤝

❌ No quick fixes
✅ Just getting to the cause and sorting it properly

If something’s been hanging around longer than it should… get it looked at 📲

Busy, busy week in clinic 💥

Lots of clients seeing excellent outcomes from Ostenil injections 🙌

But what actually is it… and why is it so effective? 🤔

Ostenil is a hyaluronic acid injection 💉
– a substance naturally found in your joints.

It works by:
✔️ Improving joint lubrication
✔️ Reducing friction and irritation
✔️ Helping movement feel smoother and less painful

💡 Unlike steroid injections, hyaluronic acid does not carry the same risks of cartilage damage with repeated use, making it a gentler option for some patients.

For the right patients, it can make a huge difference in pain and function 👏

It’s not for everyone, and a full assessment is always needed — but when appropriate, results can be really positive ✨

If you’ve been struggling with joint pain and feel like you’ve tried everything… this could be an option

After such a positive weekend delivering shockwave training, it’s brilliant to come back to the clinic and see results like this 💥

Helping people stay active, reduce pain, and keep doing what they love is always the goal — and it’s great to see shockwave therapy making a real difference 👇

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“I’ve now had 3 shockwave sessions which have been hugely beneficial…”

Every patient is different, but when the right treatment meets the right diagnosis — that’s where the magic happens ✨

If you’ve been struggling with ongoing pain or a “ni**le” that won’t settle, it might be time to get it assessed.

What a fantastic day at Murrayfield Stadium on Saturday 🙌

Proud to be part of the EMS training team delivering our first Scottish Swiss Dolorclast Academy 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🤝🇨🇭

Brilliant group, great energy, and always a privilege to share knowledge and develop skills in shockwave therapy 💥

Days like this are what keep me bringing the latest evidence-based treatments back into the clinic

And of course… couldn’t resist a cheeky pitchside photo opportunity 🏉

Don’t ignore the ni**le 👇

We’ve all done it…

“It’s just a ni**le… I’ll walk it off.”

➡️ A few days later… it’s worse
➡️ A few weeks later… it’s still there
➡️ Before you know it… it’s stopping you doing what you love

Most injuries I see don’t start big — they start small and get ignored.

The earlier you deal with it, the easier it usually is to get back on track.

✔️ Don’t wait until it stops you
✔️ Get it checked early
