Being active is great, but repetitive movements, muscle imbalances, and improper mechanics can lead to common injuries. If left untreated, these issues can affect your performance and overall mobility.

Knee & Lower Body Injuries

• Knee Pain (Runner’s Knee, Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome) – Common in high-impact activities, often caused by poor movement mechanics, weak stabilisers, or overuse.

• Shin Splints – Inflammation and pain from repetitive impact on hard surfaces, often affecting runners and court-sport athletes.

• Achilles Tendinitis – Overuse of the Achilles tendon, leading to stiffness and discomfort, especially in running and jumping activities.

• IT Band Syndrome – Tightness along the outer thigh, resulting in knee pain, typically from repetitive motion or improper biomechanics.

• Hip Tightness & Imbalances – Reduced mobility caused by prolonged sitting, excessive training, or muscle imbalances affecting movement patterns.

Spinal, Postural & Upper Body Injuries

• Lower Back Strain – Excessive spinal load due to poor lifting technique, weak core stability, or improper movement mechanics.

• Postural Pain – Neck, shoulder, and back discomfort from poor movement patterns, extended sitting, or imbalanced muscle activation.

• Sciatica & Nerve Compression – Radiating pain, numbness, or tingling from nerve irritation caused by tight muscles, spinal misalignment, or movement dysfunctions.

• Shoulder Impingements – Pain and restricted movement caused by repetitive overhead lifting or improper shoulder mechanics.

• Tendon Injuries (Rotator Cuff, Tennis Elbow, Golfer’s Elbow) – Overuse and inflammation from heavy lifting, racket sports, or repetitive gripping motions.

• Wrist & Elbow Strain – Common in weightlifters, racquet sport athletes, and desk workers who experience repetitive strain from gripping, lifting, or prolonged computer use.

Overused and Chronic Pain

• Shoulder Impingements – Pain and restricted movement caused by repetitive overhead lifting or improper shoulder mechanics.

• Tendon Injuries (Rotator Cuff, Tennis Elbow, Golfer’s Elbow) – Overuse and inflammation from heavy lifting, racket sports, or repetitive gripping motions.

• Wrist & Elbow Strain – Common in weightlifters, racquet sport athletes, and desk workers who experience repetitive strain from gripping, lifting, or prolonged computer use.

• Muscle Tightness & Stiffness – Often due to inadequate mobility work, improper recovery, or training imbalances.

• Joint Pain & Inflammation – Repetitive strain on joints from improper movement mechanics, lack of stability, or overuse without proper recovery.

Minor discomfort may not seem like a big deal, but ignoring it can lead to chronic pain, reduced mobility, and decreased performance. Small imbalances can cause compensations in your movement, leading to further strain and injury over time.

1️⃣ Injury Prevention & Movement Screening – Identifying muscle imbalances, mobility restrictions, and weak points before they lead to injuries.

2️⃣ Strength & Stability Training – Building a strong foundation to support your body’s movements and reduce strain on joints and muscles.

3️⃣ Flexibility & Mobility Improvement – Enhancing range of motion and reducing stiffness through stretching, joint mobilisation, and soft tissue therapy.

4️⃣ Recovery & Rehabilitation – Hands-on treatment, dry needling, and personalised rehab programs to restore function and prevent future issues.

5️⃣ Performance Enhancement – Optimising movement efficiency, improving power output, and refining mechanics to help you train harder and recover faster.

✔ Pain or Discomfort That Won’t Go Away – If knee pain, back stiffness, or shoulder discomfort lingers after training, it’s time to get it checked before it worsens.

✔ Recurring Injuries or Stiffness – If you keep dealing with the same injuries, there’s likely an underlying cause that needs to be addressed.

✔ Reduced Mobility or Flexibility – If movement restrictions are affecting your performance or causing discomfort, physiotherapy can help restore range of motion.

✔ Weakness or Instability – Feeling off-balance, unstable, or like certain muscles aren’t engaging properly? A physio can identify and correct the issue.
