I had a sea swimmer come and see me this weekend, they’ve been suffering with their shoulders, particularly the right.

Continue Reading I had an old client return to clinic this weekend. I wish it had been under more favourable circumstances. Unfortunately a few weeks ago they were walking home, and got head butted in a crazy ambush situation. The swelling had gone down, and there were now no visible signs anything had happened, but they were…
Continue Reading A client (13 year old) presented today with knee and ankle issues. Nothing of major significance in their history, so we started with the core. Without a stable platform to operate from limbs (and the neck) have to stabilise and mobilise at the same time, leaving them more prone to injury. The whole intrinsic core…
