22.01.2022 Ever had a sprained ankle? Of course you have. Its the most common injury. No big deal right? WRONG!! Re-injury rates are high and ankle sprains can lead to problems further up the chain effecting the knee and hip. Simply put, ligaments are responsible for keeping joints stable by recruiting the right muscles at the right time. When ligaments are damaged they lose the ability to do this I can help. There are lots of exercises and treatment techniques available to combat these problems. Get in touch for more info #NotJustForAthletes #KnowledgeIsPower

21.01.2022 Barefoot training Yes or No? Personally I’m in the camp. Firstly because I’ve always had problems finding shoes that actually fit due to having wide feet. Secondly because the human body is way more intelligent than shoe companies. . . .... . . . Barefoot training is increasing in popularity and with good reason. Feet are very complex pieces of kit. With 28 bones, 30 joints and over 100 muscles, tendons and ligaments there’s a lot going on there. They come in all different shapes and sizes and are being squashed in a pair of trainers will do you no favours. There is also no need to correct your arches, or amount of pronation or whatever else we have been led to believe by clever marketing. You walk the way you walk and you run the way you run. I refer back to my earlier point about the human body being more intelligent than well all of us. We have our own shock absorbers in the form of skeletal muscles A clever warning system to tell us when we’re in danger of injuring ourselves know as proprioception Thanks ligaments. Bones are hard and will stay that way if they’re exposed to load a regular basis. They will also become even stronger if the loads are increased (GRADUALLY) If the foot or any part of the anatomy has interference from outside forces it will become dysfunctional and lead to weakness, poor mechanics and reduced proprioception. I CANNOT stress the importance of proprioception enough. I’m not saying we should throw out all our shoes and wander the streets with naked feet. I am a girl after all and I do enjoy a beautiful piece of footwear especially with with a pretty handbag In the gym you will see me without shoes and socks If you can’t perform barefoot it’s because of faulty mechanics in the foot and ankle which leads to problems all the way up the chain. No shoe on earth can correct that.

02.01.2022 Let’s talk ankles The ankle or Talocrural joint if you want to give it it’s proper name is a tricky little customer. To all intents and purposes it’s a simple joint. Three bones all fitting together quite nicely. It’s a superb piece of engineering. When it works properly all the joints glide over each other smoothly and invert and evert and rotate and dorsiflex and plantarflex and it’s beautiful...Continue reading
