๐Ÿค• Arm or Leg injury?

๐Ÿง‘๐Ÿผโ€โš•๏ธ Following a time of injury, muscle loss and strength reduction is one problem we wish to avoid.

๐Ÿ“ƒ Multiple studies have shown that training the opposite name with high quality resistance work regularly can curtail the loss of muscle mass, strength and performance on the injured limb.

๐ŸŽฏ Start training early with physiotherapy to target the affected muscles

๐ŸŽฏ Heavy slow loading is show to have the greatest benefits

๐ŸŽฏ Neural pathways are optimised to help maintain muscle mass, straight and enhanced early performance once the cast comes off the injured limb.

๐Ÿ“ธ Wicklow is beautiful!

๐Ÿง‘๐Ÿผโ€โš•๏ธ Getting outside and walking in this beautiful county is a luxury that most envy. From the green forest walks to the fresh coastal breeze, being outside is amazing for your physical health and emotional wellbeing.

๐Ÿค• Injury can often stop you going outside, stop you doing the things you like and also make you feel hopeless, especially when you have tried a few things that just didn't help you out like you hoped.

๐Ÿง‘๐Ÿผโ€โš•๏ธNot all back pain is the disc or "alignment". The body is a system of cells that work together to create you!

๐Ÿฆ Bacteria is always trying it's best to take a foothold in your body and our bodies often fight it off successfully. However, it can take a foothold in the gut and even in the discs the selves.

๐Ÿ˜ทIf this bad bacteria is given a chance to multiply through factors suck as being ill, poor sleep, stress, the bacteria will result in inflammation, cytokine release which makes you hurt ๐Ÿ˜ซ

๐Ÿง‘๐Ÿผโ€โš•๏ธPhysio is useful to assess your back and point you in the right direction to help alleviate and reduce back pain

PAIN ๐Ÿค•
This is the number one motivator for seeking help and physio is a good way to go.

๐Ÿ“ƒ I do a detailed assessment and come up with a treatment plan targeting areas that need improvement in order for you to have less pain and gain better health.

๐Ÿ“Pain is often helped take hold by many factors other than mechanical breakdown , like a muscle tear. Don't forget the BIO in Biomechanics

๐Ÿ˜ดSleep is our superpower. It promotes healing and repair. 8 hours is the advised time on most and is longer in teens and athletes.

๐Ÿ Nutrition supplies the building blocks for tissue repair. Make sure to eat a little more high quality food to help get through the inflammation and allow repair.

๐Ÿซจ Stress - This drives up cortisol which can reduce tissue healing and drive up inflammation.

๐Ÿง‘๐Ÿผโ€โš•๏ธ Getting lower levels of inflammation is a good thing. Addressing the above issues with a high quality rehabilitation program will improve the chances of returning to a pain free and active lifestyle.
