Not sure if you need a physio? Here is your sign 👇

1. 🤷‍♀️ Pain that won’t quit - lasted over a week or keeps coming back.
2. 😪Movement’s changed - can’t turn your neck, squat, or reach overhead like you’re used to.
3. 🛍️ Everyday stuff hurts now - stairs, working out, grabbing shopping.
4. 🩼 You’ve started compensating - limping, favouring a side, pushing off a furniture stand.
5. 🤕 Post-injury or post-surgery but still not back to normal - or you’re avoiding things you love because of it.
6. 💻 Desk life catching up - or you’re stuck in a push-flare cycle that never actually resolves.

If a few of these sound familiar, that’s your cue - book in. Link in bio.

❓Do you treat the cause - not just the sore bit?

That’s the difference a holistic approach makes.

❌2 rehab habits to break:

💆‍♀️Don’t rely on massage and heat alone.

⏸️ Don’t stop your rehab exercises just because the pain fades.

Feeling better and being fully recovered aren’t always the same thing - stick with the plan.

✅3 things we always tell our patients to do:

🔥Warm up properly. Raising your core temperature switches on your nervous system and - most importantly - helps prevent injury.

🏋️Add in single-leg work. Split squats and single-leg Romanian deadlifts build strength and stability that double-leg exercises can miss.

🧊Cool down after training. Stretch out your tight muscles.

Simple habits, big difference.

❌2 things NOT to do after an injury:

🧊Don’t ice aggressively or laid up on anti inflammatories early on.

🤖Don’t trust everything you see online, including AI.

If in doubt, come and see us - we’ll give you advice that’s actually about you, not a search result.

Pelvic floor tip: it’s not just for women 💪

It matters to men too, especially if you’re a runner, do high intensity training, or lift heavy.
