Great to welcome Darlington FC’s Max Howells and club physiotherapists Nathan and Liam to Elevate Performance Healthcare.

It was particularly good to catch up with Max again, having previously worked together during our time at Middlesbrough Football Club.

We’re pleased to be playing a part in Max’s ongoing rehabilitation, working alongside Nathan, Liam and the medical team at Darlington FC to support his recovery and progression towards a return to football.

Collaboration and communication are key parts of successful rehabilitation, ensuring everyone is working together towards the same goal.

Great to be involved, and wishing Max all the best as he continues his recovery! 💪

NEW BLOG: UNDERSTANDING TENDON PAIN

Tendon pain is one of the most common issues affecting runners, gym-goers, and active individuals.

One of the biggest misconceptions? That complete rest is the answer.

While reducing aggravating activities may help in the short term, tendons need the right amount of load to adapt, recover, and become more resilient.

In our latest blog, we explore:
✅ Why tendon pain develops
✅ The relationship between load and tissue capacity
✅ Why rest alone often isn’t enough
✅ How progressive rehabilitation supports recovery
✅ The importance of understanding tendon function and adaptation

Whether you’re dealing with Achilles pain, patellar tendon pain, tennis elbow, or another tendon-related condition, understanding the underlying principles can help guide a more effective recovery.

If you’ve been struggling with persistent tendon pain, this blog is for you.

OBJECTIVE KNEE STRENGTH TESTING

Strength matters, but so does being able to measure it accurately.

Using a single-leg knee isometric push with VALD ForceDecks, we can objectively assess:

✅ Force production
✅ Limb symmetry
✅ Strength deficits
✅ Progress throughout rehab

This helps identify weaknesses that may contribute to pain, reduced performance, or increased injury risk.

More importantly, it allows rehab to become outcome-driven, with clear data guiding progression and return to activity.

No guesswork.
Clear measurements.
Better decisions.

Whether you’re returning from injury, preparing for surgery, or building strength for performance, objective testing helps ensure the right things are improving.

OUTER RANGE STRENGTH & PERTURBATION TRAINING

Following shoulder injury, it’s not just about getting movement back, it’s about building strength and control where it matters most.

End-range positions are often where the shoulder is most vulnerable.

That’s why rehab should include:
✅ Outer range strength development
✅ Perturbation training to challenge stability
✅ Exposure to unpredictable forces
✅ Control under load

This helps prepare the shoulder for real-world demands, whether that’s sport, gym, or everyday movement.

It’s not just about being pain-free.

It’s about being strong, stable, and confident at range.

It was a privilege to have Baroness Tanni Grey-Thompson in the clinic recently.

One of the most decorated Paralympians in history, with an incredible record including:
🥇 11 Paralympic gold medals
🥇 16 Paralympic medals in total
🥇 Multiple World Championship titles

Since retiring from elite sport, she has continued to make a significant impact, becoming a member of the House of Lords, and a leading advocate for disability rights, accessibility, and inclusion across sport and society.

A true example of consistency, resilience, and high performance, both in sport and beyond.

Great to support someone who has achieved so much at the highest level.
