FORGE X HALE TRAINING CLUB πŸ”₯πŸ’ͺ

Forge clinicians getting to grips with the new kit down at Hale Training Club - Oldham πŸ“ˆ

As clinicians, it’s important we know how to use the equipment ourselves before coaching our patients through a movement.

We had a play around with some of the new glute-specific machines, looking at different ways to load the muscles and build strength throughout rehab.

Always looking for new ways to improve what we offer our patients at Forge! πŸ’ͺ

Thanks Theo & Becky for the incredible demonstration πŸ˜‚πŸ”₯

FIRST-CLASS HONOURS IN SPORT REHABILITATION πŸŽ“πŸ“ˆ

Theo Morgan β€” BSc (Hons) Sport Rehabilitation
University of Salford | First-Class Honours πŸŽ“

3 years of university, practical exams, clinical placements and countless hours studying.

But what does this actually mean for YOUR injury? πŸ€”

As a BASRaT Registered Sport Rehabilitator, Theo is trained in:

βœ… Injury Assessment β€” Assessing and identifying a wide range of sporting and musculoskeletal injuries.

🧠 Clinical Reasoning β€” Understanding your symptoms, recognising red flags and referring onwards when needed.

πŸ’ͺ Rehabilitation & S&C β€” Building individual programmes to restore strength, movement and confidence.

πŸƒ Return to Sport β€” Helping you progress from injury back to training, competing and everyday activities.

SO WHY DOES THE QUALIFICATION MATTER? πŸŽ“

There’s a big difference between completing a short sports massage course and a 3-year clinical degree.

Sports massage absolutely has its place, but Sport Rehabilitation goes much further than hands-on treatment.

It’s about understanding WHY you’re in pain, WHAT needs improving and HOW we’re going to get you back to full fitness.

A First-Class degree doesn’t automatically make someone a great clinician, but it reflects years of hard work, education and dedication to the profession.

And the learning doesn’t stop after graduation! πŸ“ˆ

YOUR INJURY DESERVES MORE THAN TEMPORARY PAIN RELIEF. πŸ”₯

WHAT MAKES FORGE DIFFERENT? πŸ”₯πŸ“ˆ

At Forge Injury & Performance, we’re proud of the team we’ve built and the standards we set ourselves.

From our university education and professional registrations to our clinical experience, facilities and patient reviews.

We work hard to make sure everyone who comes through our doors receives the best care we can provide.

Here’s 5 reasons why you should consider Forge for your injury rehabilitation πŸ‘‡

FIRST-CLASS EDUCATION πŸŽ“πŸ“š

Both Theo & Josh graduated from the University of Salford with First-Class Honours degrees in Sport Rehabilitation!

That’s 3 years of university, practical exams, clinical placements and plenty of late nights studying injury assessment, rehabilitation and strength & conditioning.

Becky also holds a degree in Physiotherapy, bringing another clinical background to the team.

We’re proud of our academic achievements, but even more excited to keep developing our knowledge and skills in the clinic.

The learning never stops πŸ“ˆ

MORE THAN JUST A TREATMENT ROOM πŸ‹οΈπŸ“ˆ

At Forge, we want to offer more than just hands-on treatment and a few exercises to do at home.

We’ve invested in our own dedicated injury clinic in Chadderton, alongside working with Hale Training Club to provide access to fantastic gym facilities.

This means we can support you through different stages of rehabilitation.

βœ… Initial injury assessments

βœ… Hands-on treatment and recovery

βœ… Strength testing and rehabilitation

βœ… Gym-based strength & conditioning

βœ… Return to running and sport

Our goal isn’t just to help reduce your pain. It’s to get you stronger, more confident and back to doing what you love.

HARD WORK DOESN’T STOP AFTER UNIVERSITY πŸ“ˆ

Between the three of us, we’ve built up thousands of hours of clinical experience through university placements, sporting environments and working with patients in the clinic.

From professional sporting environments to grassroots sport and everyday MSK injuries, we’ve been fortunate to learn from a wide range of experiences.

But we’re still learning every single week.

Goal: Back on the Rugby Pitch πŸ‰πŸ“ˆ

Great having Oli Morgan , ho**er for Goole Vikings down at Forge following a nasty lateral ankle sprain sustained in the final game of the season! πŸ‰

Despite initially managing the injury himself, Oli was still experiencing swelling, reduced ankle mobility and difficulty with sprinting and acceleration.

On Assessment πŸ”

Following a thorough injury assessment and objective testing, our findings were consistent with a significant lateral ankle sprain involving the ATFL and CFL ligaments.

We identified several key issues:

❌ Persistent lateral ankle swelling
❌ Restricted ankle mobility, particularly inversion
❌ Reduced ankle inversion strength (16% deficit)
❌ Increased ligamentous laxity on anterior drawer testing
❌ Reduced single-leg stability and confidence

With this being Oli’s third sprain to the same ankle, restoring strength, stability and reducing the risk of reinjury are major priorities.

The Rehab Plan πŸ“ˆ

We’ve started hands-on treatment and progressive rehabilitation focusing on restoring mobility, improving ankle strength and rebuilding dynamic stability.

With preseason approaching, the aim is to get Oli back sprinting, changing direction and performing confidently on the rugby pitch! πŸ’ͺ

Looking forward to reassessing his progress at his next session!

HIP PAIN STOPPING YOU FROM ENJOYING YOUR SPORT? πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸ”₯

Whether you’re running, lifting weights, playing football or taking part in HYROX, hip pain can seriously affect your performance.

At FORGE Injury & Performance - Sports Rehab Manchester, we carry out comprehensive injury assessments to identify what’s contributing to your hip pain and build a clear plan to get you moving again. πŸ“ˆ

Common causes of sporting hip pain include:

πŸ”Έ Hip flexor strains and tendon overload
πŸ”Έ Gluteal tendinopathy (hip abductor tendons)
πŸ”Έ Training load and strength-related issues
πŸ”Έ Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI)
πŸ”Έ Hip labral injuries

Running-related hip pain can sometimes be linked to increased training loads and reduced tissue capacity, but not every case is simply an overuse injury.

Our assessment looks at your injury history, hip mobility, strength, training demands and clinical signs to help identify the likely cause and screen for more serious conditions that may require further investigation.

Our goal? Not just to reduce your pain, but to rebuild your strength, confidence and capacity to return to the sport you love. πŸ’ͺ

Class to have another OFA athlete down at the clinic preparing for his upcoming fight on Cage Warriors Academy πŸ“ˆ

After meeting Kangi at our first pop-up down at Oldham Fight Academy , we had a good chat about a few problems he’s been having with his lower back and shoulders.

Following this, Kangi decided to get booked in with Theo for a session ahead of his next fight.

Main focus was assessing a few injury concerns, including a left quad tear and right shin contusion, alongside some recovery work to keep him moving well.

Pleasure having you in the clinic bro, looking forward to working with you more over the next few weeks.

Let’s get ready for fight night my G πŸ”₯πŸ₯Š
