**** Words Can Exacerbate Pain **** There are many studies that show degeneration of joints in groups of people with no pain, equally studies show perfectly healthy joints in people who have pain! Pain is not just physiological, it is also influenced by social and psychological factors unique to you, your belief systems, your fears, your history. Often someone with chronic lower back pain will have an MRI scan and see the words degeneration, herniated disc, etc and panic, think they are old, feel like there is no hope, fear movement and on and on. What do you think that does to their pain? Remember pain is an output to protect us where the brain senses danger. What if you were told when you got your scan results that your level of degeneration is age appropriate? What if you were told that many people have these levels of degeneration and have no pain? What if you were told that movement actually helps with pain? You see words can also help with pain....... There are many ways we as soft tissue and movement therapists can help improve your pain.

LATERAL KNEE PAIN? TRY THIS!⠀ ⠀ Our final Knee Pain clients of that day was lateral or outer knee pain accompanied by overactive, hypertonic lateral quads and sensitivity of the IT band attachment. Soft tissue work improve these symptoms for the client. This taping will also help relieve these symptoms but it won't solve the problem!⠀ ⠀ This client had had a knee replacement 18 months previously , although the pain was not in the knee joint the soft tissue around the area were causing the client discomfort. The client was actually limping. There was fear, emotion, worry surrounding the knee to the extent it was changing the clients loading pattern, creating tension and pain was prevailing.⠀ ⠀ In short our treatment and home-care plan is about relieving these symptoms to allow the client to move better and grow in confidence To start loading through the knee to balance his gait from side to side and get him back to feeling strong again.⠀ ⠀ Not all knee pains are the same - so why treat them the same!⠀ ⠀ #unique #tailormade #treatments #sportsmassage #massagetherapy #thewholepicture #kinesiotape #kneepain #fitpro #fitness #crossfit #movemore #movebetter #movementismedicine #pain #knee #arthritis #painrelief #sportsmassagetherapist #rehab #prehab #mobility #tkr #totalkneereplacement #kneereplacement
Are you a Victim of Medical Imaging Technology?⠀ ⠀ Have you had a back, neck, knee, hip scan and been told you have degeneration? Is your pain now worse? Have you changed how you move since hearing this? Are you scared of your body?⠀ ⠀ Alternatively, have you lots of pain but your scans say everything looks clear?⠀ ⠀ Believe it or not Pain is not directly related to damage, you can have no degeneration, no damage and yet have pain. On the flip side, you can have degeneration or damage and have No pain! So why have some people lucked out and others not?⠀ ⠀ Pain is an output from the brain to protect and sometimes it this protection is no longer helpful causing us pain, preventing us from moving and stopping us from getting strong and feeling good. Pain is not just influenced by physiological factors, it is influenced by social and psychological factors too. You need to treat pain addressing all of these factors unique to you.⠀ ⠀ You can change this output from your brain by making it feel safe again – would you like to know more about I can help you feel safe?⠀ ⠀ Get in touch and start your journey to feeling and moving better :-) ⠀ ⠀ #sportsmassage #chronicpain #mriscan #arthritis #lowerbackpain #movement #movementismedicine #massage #stimulus #iastm #nervoussystem
ANTERIOR KNEE PAIN? TRY THIS!⠀ ⠀ Knee pain 2 that day was anterior or front of knee pain around and under the knee cap (patella) accompanied by overactive, hypertonic quads and hip flexors on that side. Soft tissue work improve these symptoms for the client.⠀ ⠀ But once again this is only part of the picture as on assessment we discovered the clients foot (which had a previous fracture a couple of months before onset of knee pain) was rigid, the client over supinated and also bore most of their weight on the lateral aspect of the foot when walking. Some hip restrictions in ROM were also adding to the picture. These both needed some good soft tissue work too and into the spine to improve fluidity of movement.⠀ ⠀ Home-care plan looks a lot like foot mobility work, foot self massage (ball), foot stabiliser work and a functional loading plan with some stretching to support the treatment plan.⠀ ⠀ Not all knee pains are the same - so why treat them the same!⠀ ⠀ #unique #tailormade #treatments #sportsmassage #massagetherapy #thewholepicture #kinesiotape #kneepain #fitpro #fitness #crossfit #movemore #movebetter #movementismedicine #pain #knee #arthritis #painrelief #sportsmassagetherapist #rehab #prehab #mobility #jumpersknee #brokenfoot #brokentoes #runnersknee
*** BIRTH TRAUMA ***⠀ ⠀ Sometimes when the mind has experience trauma, stress, anxiety, the body creates tension to help us deal with the event. To help us Fight, Flight or Freeze, to help us survive.I for one Fight, I bottle it all in to be strong for everyone. But what happens when the event ends? What if we have not let go of this tension?⠀ ⠀ Somatic experiencing is where the body remembers tension, patterns, functions that are associated with that trauma. Sometimes seemingly unrelated somatic or bodily pains, feelings, sensations can be linked to that trauma and need to be released.⠀ ⠀ For me it started with a warm foot, I then developed a chronic migraine a 9 out 10 all day every day, a stiffness or pain in my mid spine and a feeling or not being able to breathe. I was convinced it was my back from carrying the baby, I should know better right?⠀ ⠀ But it all started after my baby was signed off as well as healthy, so it couldn't be related to that stressful year of carrying a baby I knew was going to be unwell, the baby who arrived and was unwell, well it absolutely was ALL to do with this.⠀ ⠀ Understanding this is the first step to getting better. Learning that is ok to be scared, to be worried, is the prevention. ⠀ ⠀ We need to feel our feelings to let them go!Are you holding old traumas in your body? Is it time to release them? @corefascialrelease⠀ ⠀ #bodymindcore #corefascialrelease #facia #somaticexperiencing #chronicpain #migraine #birthtrauma #cbt #feelyourfeelings #letitgo #pain#therapy #trauma #release #wellbeing #gettingbetteratgettingpeoplebetter #nomorepain #sportsmassage #massagetherapist #movemore #breathe #yoga #pilates #movement #movementismedicine
MEDIAL KNEE PAIN? TRY THIS!⠀ ⠀ So Knee pain 1 was on the medial aspect or the inside of the knee and was accompanied by overly tense adductors. We did soft tissue work to reduce the tone and sensitivity in these areas and this taping will help the client support themselves until the next session allowing them to focus on the home-care loading plan.⠀ ⠀ This is only part of the picture as the cause on assessment looked to involve hyper-mobility, a compromised core and a lack of movement leading to increased load through the knee. Oh and it seems back pain is a common theme too :-)⠀ ⠀ Home-care plan looks a lot like Core re-connection and a functional loading plan with some stretching to support this.⠀ ⠀ Not all knee pains are the same - so why treat them the same!⠀ ⠀ #unique #tailormade #treatments #sportsmassage #massagetherapy #thewholepicture #kinesiotape #kneepain #fitpro #fitness #crossfit #movemore #movebetter #movementismedicine #pain #knee #arthritis #painrelief #sportsmassagetherapist #rehab #prehab #mobility #pilates #football #yoga #basketball #baseball #tennis #badminton #horseriding
