Ladies you have been there you go to the physio tell them you back, hip, knee hurts. You can't even go out for a walk because you worry you can't keep up, or pre-loading with pain killers.

So you make excuses, too busy, too tired, planning lunch in the middle just so you can sit down ... when really there's nothing more you would love to do.

But all you get is a generic sheet of exercises that no one has shown you how to do, or even why you are doing it. No follow up and no real understanding of why you are in pain.

So you assume it's your age, your weight, your menopause... and it's something you just have to live with.

You don't!
Age doesn’t cause pain
Menopause doesn’t cause pain (it can make it feel worse)
Your weight... well I see and help lots of women who get better without losing a lb..

Sheet of exercises is not the answer!

This is the price they pain to manage or avoid their pain.

Missing out on walks with their friends, gardening, sitting for a meal, long trips or holidays, playing with their grandchildren... even retiring early.

Life loses it's sparkle.

But it doesn't have to be like this. It's not their age, they are not degenerating and there is so much they can do.

I see amazing changes daily, in the women I work with.

It simply takes a different perspective 🫶

Is it me?

I am seeing more and more posts about how to 'fix' tight hip flexors, to get rid of back pain.

I am not sure when the hip flexors (the muscles that help bend your hip) became the villain of back pain but I wish it was that easy!

One of the theories is that when they are tight they make it more difficult for the glutes (buttocks / hip muscles) to do their job of supporting you when you stand / walk etc.

Now I am not saying that for some that stretching them can and does help...

But is it really a 'fix' or a 'cure' for back pain?

Or is it great click bait 🤔?

The thing is that for every person that follows the advice and feels better there are many more that try it, it doesn’t work and it becomes another thing that's failed.

It reinforces the belief that nothing works for their back pain. Because I know they will have tried other quick fix tips. I see it in my clients everyday.

Persistent back pain, any pain for that matter is rarely, if ever, simply just because of tight hip muscles. Yes, they can be a part of the problem, but we need to be asking why they are tight in the first place?

If you stretch them or have a massage and it helps you for a bit great! But if it's not giving you longer relief from your back pain, then it's time for a different perspective 🔎

I received an email today that made me both sad and frustrated. It was from a woman in her 60s asking me if there was anything I can do to help her with her back pain, that just isn't getting better, from a fall 5 months ago.

After a visit to A&E she had been told that she hadn't broken anything, but was 'badly bruised' given pain killers and told it would get better. However, after a couple of months she decided she should see her GP again as it hadn't improved, he gave her more pain killers and booked the physio. Physio told her the same as the hospital.

She told me that she didn't know where to go for help and had heard I help women with pain problems or should she try osteopath or a chiropractor? Understandable considering the physio experience she had.

Now healing from soft tissue injuries is 6 weeks so pain should be gone, or going. So why, five months later does she still have pain? We know that pain is essentially the best way our nervous system can protect us from harm. If it's a protection thing what is her nervous system protecting her from?

Well weeks of being unable to move freely can teach your brain that movement itself is the threat. Worry about hurting yourself again can keep the nervous system on high alert. Or maybe there is a problem higher in the back as pain can be referred from here and felt in the lower back, has anyone looked here?

This is what I see over and over again, especially with women over 50, the moment structural damage is ruled out, the search stops.
Even when it shouldn't.

It becomes so easy to label the pain as age. Degenerative changes or wear and tear that somehow is now causing pain, that it didn't before she fell. It's simply just no good enough.

This lovely lady, you and all the other women I see in this situation deserve more. I'd love to know, does any of this resonate with you, or someone you know?

Ladies don’t settle for managing your pain, demand more!

If your pain is stopping you from walking with friends, telling you to say 'no' to that weekend away, making you feel crap, or stopping you from getting stuck into some gardening this weekend, enough is enough!

You're not too old
You're not too 'menopausal'
You’re not degenerating 🫣

You deserve more than 'there's nothing more we can do'

That's someone else saying they're at the limit if what they have to offer

It's not the limit of what's still possible for you

A different perspective is what you need and I can offer it 😊

So many women I work with have waited months for their physio appointment...

Excited to finally be getting some answers, help, support.

Expecting to work towards feeling better, so they can get on with their life.

To come away with several sheets of exercises, half of which they can't do, the other half they aren't sure how to do..

With a 'get in touch if you need another appointment'

Pain is not like a light switch, a few stretches and it's gone.

The irony is that most of the women I see have already tried stretches while waiting for the physio!

Pain is not simply stiff joints, tight muscles or a need to be stronger.

Pain is information, we need to dig deeper and understand the clues it leaves us.

It's not too much to ask is it?

To be able to go out with family or friends, walk with them without pain meaning you need to sit down or slow down

But somehow women over 50 get 'it's your age' 'menopause causes a this pain' 'there's nothing more we can do'

It's all to easy to make that assumption.

Yet women I work with get better... and still have menopause symptoms

Ladies you deserve to be seen and heard 🧡

Still mixing it up a little with a morning clinic doing the more traditional physio work... in the least traditional way!!

I missed being in-person, the energy you get from just being in someone else's presence.

I am so inspired to be better, to deepen my understanding, to make better connections. This helps me.

It helps me navigate the online space, which can be overwhelming and a bit shouty!!

I wonder how many lovely people I see today will be surprised when they don't get stretches for their pain..? 🤔😊
