Post Exercise Recovery Nutrition 🥦🐓 ———— Proteins such as chicken, salmon and lentils help with the recovery process by providing the body with the necessary ingredients to repair muscle tissue. Carbohydrates such as wholewheat rice, kidney beans, vegetables, bananas and blueberries are all great healthy example of healthy carbohydrates to eat post exercise to help refuel your body. ... Hydration 💧 ———— Make sure to drink plenty of water during and post exercise to help allow efficient transport of blood, nutrients and oxygen around the body. Cool down/ light exercise 🚴🏻‍♂️ ———— Steady cycling on a stationary bike is a great way to increase blood flow around the body to aid in recovery and the transport of the nutrients Having a set stretching routine post exercise to help improve flexibility and reduce the chance of future injury due to tight muscles Contrast therapy 🛁❄️ ———— Contrast therapy is the use of cold/ ice and heat/ hot bath as a way for the body to recover, pain relief and repair Sleep 😴 ———— Make sure to get plenty of sleep as this is important for your body to recharge mentally and physically

Exercise and Mental Health _____________________ Over the last 2 weeks I have been working with an 84year old client with dementia and has been unable to walk and limited to only his bed and chair. I’ve spent 30min a day with him for 2 weeks and today he finally managed to stand and into a wheelchair ! This in itself is a massive achievement. ... But the most noticeable improvement is his mental state, he is happier, more determined, and his memory is getting better ! _____________________ This is my first venture into this type of therapy and it is by far the most rewarding! _____________________ #mentalhealth #sportstherapy #sportsmassage #sportstherapist #rehab #mental #health #exercise #physio #happy #happiness #improve #determination #dementia

Do you need a Sports Therapist OR a Physiotherapist ?? ___________________________ Sports therapist always get refer to as ‘physio’ just because it’s easy to say but the differences between the 2 aren’t that different. Sports Therapy, according to ‘The society of sports therapists’ (governing body), is ‘concerned with the prevention, rehabilitation and treatment of the patient back to optimal occupational and/ or sports specific fitness’. Physiotherapy, according to the c...hartered society of physiotherapists, ‘is a rehabilitation profession that promotes improvement in quality of life through diagnosis, examination and treatment’. Very similar is you ask me! ___________________________ Sports therapy applies a lot of similar skills and techniques that you would find from a physiotherapist such as massage, exercises prescription, electro therapy, physical therapy and many more. What sets them apart? Physiotherapy is more ‘medical’ with use of a better word. Physiotherapist are trained to deal with the initial recovery of serious medical condition such as heart attack, strokes or some kind of neurological/ respiratory disease. Where as sports therapist are trained to deal with muscular-skeletal injuries, with that in mind, that doesn’t rule out sports therapist with working with more complex condition after the initial treatment. ___________________________ So if you have a dodgy shoulder or a bad knee whether it is sport related or lifestyle related maybe you should consider a sports therapist first. Plus probably cheaper too! ___________________________ #physiotherapy #sportstherapy #msk #muscle #skeletal #injury #gym #therapy #recovery #fitness #optimal #health #didyouknow #spotthedifference #sport

Hamstring Prevention Programme ____________________________ Hamstring injuries are the most common injury in most team sports and athletic running. Therefore to reduce injury then a well structure and diverse programme aimed at reducing injury is required. ____________________________ These programme should be done as part of a active recovery session and on days where high intensity/ long distance isn’t happening. ... Scheduling these sessions are very important and the variety in training will do your body good as the rest and recovery will greater improve your body rather than training at your maximum every day. ____________________________ #recovery #sportstherapy #physio #injury #prevention #injuryprevention #prehab #hamstring #football #gym #exercise #fitness #training #programming

Self Myofascial Release ___________________________ This very simple but effective technique can reduce tightness within the feet, calves, hamstrings and even lower back. Also better known as the superior back line. The superior back line is a chain of the muscles and fascia that all connect and if one area is tight it could affect the opposite end of the chain. ___________________________... This simple technique of rolling a hard ball along the bottom of your foot can really improve flexibility across the whole body. All you need is a hard ball like a hockey ball or a cricket ball and just spend a couple minutes on each foot to notice the benefits and I would recommend to add it to any warm up or cool down. ___________________________ #sportstherapy #recovery #flexibility #fascia #massage #stretch #myofascialrelease #muscle #fitness #gym #prehab #flexible #gym #physiotherapy #physio

🙅🏼‍♂️Back Pain❗️ _________________ Many people suffer with back pain, young, old, very active lifestyles, sedentary lifestyles. Most cases this pain is easily fixable by improving posture, strengthening muscles and increasing flexibility. _________________ By strengthening the muscles you are allowing them to be able to meet the demands of your life. ... _________________ Flexibility is also key, I suffered with back pain a lot due to poor flexibility of my hamstrings and weak muscles in my back but over the years it has decreased. _________________ So by just adding some simple stretches and strengthening exercises which doesn’t mean having to go gym everyday but 10-15mins stretching or strengthening 2-3 times a week can drastically decrease back pain. _________________ #back #pain #stretch #strength #gym #life #sportstherapy #sportstherapist #physio #fitness #health #wellbeing #flexibility #yoga #pilates #weights #resistance #bands #work #tuesday #lifestyle #active #exercise #legs #hamstrings

💪🏻Rehabilitation 🏋️‍♀️ __________________ As well as #sportsmassage and injury assessment. I also provide rehabilitation to help prevent injury and also to help repair soft tissue such as muscle, ligament and tendons. __________________ Even when injured rehabilitation helps repair these tissue so that scar tissue doesn’t hinder and tighten the tissues and progressively worsen your injury. Rehabilitation can start at the very early stages of injury it actually helps the hea...ling process and return you to pre injury condition quicker than just resting. __________________ During the very early stages of rehab the exercises may seem easy but depending on the level and severity of injury these are the most important steps as they are building the foundation of strength, stability and support of an injury, with the main goals of increase Range of Motion. __________________ #rehab #rehabilitation #sportstherapy #sportstherapist #sports #gym #studio #physiotherapy #legday #chestday #resistance #resistancebands #workout #strength #muscle #ligament #training #train #tbt #recovery
