“Your muscles work in groups of twos or threes” - a saying I use a lot when explaining things to clients. Your body is a big team with loads of smaller teams in it. Muscles work in small groups to keep everything operating and moving properly, however the downside of that is the “domino effect” - when one has an issue, high probability of the rest following suit.

We don’t always just focus on “where it hurts” we focus on the full chain that’s being affected - to 1. Reduce the pain the client is in but 2. Restore optimal function of the full area to allow the “team” to work together as planned and prevent this reoccurring.

In this video, my client was struggling with tight traps, upper back pain & headaches. However, he didn’t realise how much his upper back and trap problem was causing his shoulders to shrug and rotate forward, giving a tightness in the pec and lats. The dining table laptop posture definitely didn’t help the case 🤷🏽‍♂️

Always look after your full team 😎

The old saying “work a job you love and you’ll never work a day in your life” can come across quite pretentious, but it is true.

Getting to come in here every morning and help people feel better than when they came in and watch their quality of life grow each time is a real honour. It’s more of a lifestyle than a “job”.

We have built a great community here at CL SMT and we are really excited for what the future has in stock. Some goals have been set for the 1, 2 & 5 years and we look forward to every step of the journey, with everyone involved in the journey 🤝 😎

We genuinely appreciate every single person who walks through our doors. Whether it’s your first appointment or your 100th , we’re always happy to see you. From the moment you book in, we do our best to make you feel comfortable and at ease—even before you’ve met any of the team, and even more so upon arrival 😀

𝟐. 𝐖𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐧 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐚𝐬 𝐦𝐮𝐜𝐡 𝐚𝐬 𝐰𝐞 𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐤👂
As much as we love explaining things (and occasionally having a waffle about everything else!), we’re all ears. To give you the best possible care, we take the time to understand your issue, your history, your goals, and how your pain affects your daily life. From there, we create a treatment and rehab plan that’s tailored specifically to you. It’s never a one size fits all approach, it’s about you, so we need to understand you 🫵🏼

𝟑. 𝐖𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐧𝐞𝐱𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐩 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫 ✅
“Uncertainty creates anxiety” - That’s why we make sure every patient understands the plan—both in the short and long term. We’ll explain what we’re doing, why we’re doing it, and what the next steps are, so you leave feeling informed, confident, and reassured throughout your recovery, as opposed to having the mystery of what’s coming next. We implement this at every stage of your journey 🤜🤛

Another fun and productive weekend in 🇪🇸.

It is forever a privilege to go out and get some treatments done in the sun and it is brilliant to see a client base growing across the sea. However, this time it was great to attend the event ran by and as well 🙌🏻 .

So much knowledge, wisdom and motivation gained from listening to some amazing speakers and networking with many like minded people in business.

Back home now 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 ☔️ and straight back into clinic this afternoon 🙌🏻. I am yet to sort my next work trip to Spain but it will be before the end of summer for sure. So for anyone out there don’t hesitate to get in touch and I’ll get you sorted next time 🫡

Have a great week everyone 💙

Confused as to why your upper back & necks always sore when you’re running? Consider this 👇🏻

When you run, chances are you’re running with your scapulas elevated and your shoulders essentially shrugged. In doing so putting the upper trap and surrounding muscles into a shortened state. Which is fine short times and distances, but as soon as you are running for hours upon hours it’s hard for you to then let these areas relax.

Big man from ran 60 odd k that weekend there, in preparation for 2 upcoming ultra marathons. And was in today getting the legs and upper back loosened up to allow him to keep training pain free 🫡

Rob Lipsett 🫡 🤝

An absolute honour to work this morning with Rob. I started the gym back when I was 17 with 0 motivation and saw it as a chore. Until I found Rob’s youtube videos and from there my motivation grew. Fast forward 8 years and I’m still regularly training away and love every second of it, and I genuinely put it down to this man.

To be out here in , Marbella & to be working with the big man is nothing short of a privilege. Extremely grateful for the opportunity this job has gave me and for everyone who’s been part of the journey 💙

Until next time big man 😎

Where you feel your pain & tension is often a result of the positions you put your body in daily. The majority of us work the same job for 4,5,6 even 7 days per week. Spending hours each day in the same positions, using the same muscles and moving the body in the same way every day.

We regularly need to expose all our muscles and joints to their two end ranges of stretched & contracted / flexed & extended to have our best hope at keeping them in peak physical condition. However, it’s very easy to get caught up in a busy days work, breaks go out the window, no energy to do any resistance training or even any stretches, and we let these niggles get worse and worse to a stage that we expect a sports therapy treatment to fix it all.

Yes, we pride ourselves on our skills used during our “body resets” - like in this video we have Nathan from in for his 6 weekly reset. However, this needs to be paired with the appropriate moving patterns between the treatments to allow you to get maximum potential from your session.

Lucky for you, we always provide the appropriate aftercare for to get the outcome you want from your session. Feel yourself getting caught in the rut of being sore and uncomfortable every day? Drop us a message and we will get your recovery journey started 😎 💙
