Supporting Movember Charity

We are please to be Supporting Movember charity this November.

We are offering a 30 minute sport massage for £35 - where £5 will go towards the Movember Foundation.  The Movember charity helps to spread awareness of men’s health issues around the world. They work closely with local charities that help with projects that have a positive impact on Prostate cancer, Testicular cancer, mental health and suicide prevention. We hope to help the charity by also spreading awareness and making donations where possible. We will be giving regular updates of our moustache growing attempts in support of the Movember charity. Last year, our very own Doug made a fantastic attempt, but this Year Daryl is going to out do him. Please support Movemeber charity and send us your moustache attempts to:  [email protected]

The effects of caffeine on athletic performance have been shown in many studies, and its broad range of metabolic, hormonal, and physiologic effects has been well established.

How and when caffeine should be taken to give this extra performance is of course, the real question.

We pride ourselves by thinking differently.

We found that our way of applying these thoughts gets better results for our patients.

In short, Moveology just works.

Not for my clinic thanks. 😂 ...

A beautiful sunny start at the Herts Triathlon event. #postracemassage #improvementthroughmovement @eventsatw ...

Just to let everyone know that I can’t wait to be back working at another ATW!! I’ll be providing post race massage and injury advice at Stanborough Lakes tomorrow. I can’t wait to hear some race stories again. It’s been too long. Just look for my flags and gazebo. ...

Think of the movement in terms of a 3 dimensional sphere.

Mobility allows the body to move to the outside of the sphere.

Stability supports the structure around the sphere.

A big thank you to everyone who has started to follow our St Albans page. 106 already. If you haven’t yet please do. We intend to post content relevant to and in response to our patients injuries and issues that come to see us at the St Albans clinic. ...

Tough commute to work today..... ...

Don’t worry! I’m being tested before going on set. #outofretirmentagain ...

Go for a walk they said. ...

We are now playing the waiting game. Moving is hard when sleeping 😴 ...

I love it when you see the light bulb moment on a patients face.

It often comes after they learn and discover a part of their anatomy then the realisation kicks in of how a muscle works a joint but how that muscle plays a role on the entire system of a persons body.

Take the psoas (Hip flexor) muscle, it is essentially a spring. Especially when you walk and definitely when you run. But, when it doesn`t work, think of it as a spring but a spring continually being pushed together. It can no longer function as a spring.

The spring would have the potential of being a spring again if it wasn`t being continually compressed.

So!!! Anytime you have been sitting for a while, at a desk, or driving etc put the function back into the psoas and give it a little stretch. Let go of the spring.
...

Stop Exerciseing!!!!
When you perform any rehab movements like stretching, try to think that the stretches and movements are restoring your body’s function. You are hitting the reset button, returning the body back to your norm.
When you think of exercise it implies you are trying to train the body beyond the norm. This is exactly what you want to do if you are exercising.
I hope you do not think of sleep as exercise. That would be ludicrous. Sleep is the best thing for rehab as lots of great things happen when you sleep well, including optimal healing and repair.
