About time 💪

The importance of skeletal muscle mass is increasingly being recognised in the medical field.

For patients with type 2 diabetes who need medical assistance with weight loss with GLP-1 receptor agonists, this may have potentially damaging effects on skeletal muscle.

A recent Comment discusses the effects of GLP-1 receptor agonists on skeletal muscle mass: https://hubs.li/Q02VDjmt0

Its that time of the year again- Winter Sports are almost here! If you're like me, spending hours down at the kids training sessions watching them get put through their paces, you want to watch out for the early signs of Sever's Disease. It's a common cause of heel pain and stiffness in active kids.

Heel Pain in Active Kids Working with representative sports kids and their parents, I see a lot of heel pain following activity. The most common cause of heel pain in kids aged 10-12 is Sever's Disease. The first sign your child might have Sever’s Disease is stiffness in the heels after a game. Once the condition progress...

“Osteopathic Medicine is a system of health care that depends upon using a patient specific, anatomically accurate hands-on procedure known as Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment.
Osteopathy cannot exist without the inclusion of Osteopathic Manipulation”

Explaining Osteopathy….🤔 That jargon doesn’t fly with patients. Try this:

https://www.edwardclarkosteopath.com/what-does-an-osteopath-do

🤬😡I HATE these photos- but not for the obvious reason.

Our culture has demonised "poor” posture for hundreds of years. A lot of people tell me they have horrible posture- and thats why they have pain 🤔

But it’s not that simple…

👉 When I see this photo I see a lady on the left who is tired, struggling, a bit down, or who has just had a really, really tough day. She is not bad, flawed or morally deficient.

👉 Posture is not bad. It’s a reflection of a complex mix of internal factors. Stop demonising your own posture and ask yourself better questions.

If you’ve got tennis elbow or golfers elbow & a gym pass try this exercise:
Golfers/tennis elbow are stupid old-timey names for epicondylitis: inflammation around the elbow insertion point for your wrist and finger tendons. This is a common overuse type injury for office workers, manual workers and sporadic gardeners- not just tennis players.
It can be painful & frustrating. Try this exercise. If pain persists or gets worse you’ll need a graded plan.

💥NECK CRACKS💥

Do Osteos do them? Are they safe? When should you consider it and who should you see?

Check the video I’ve put together with Erin from Movement Collective Studios (thanks Erin🙏) to counter some of the rubbish out there:

Will An Osteopath Crack My Neck? The answer is possibly. Neck manipulation is a technique used by manual therapists to mobilise joints in your neck so they make an audible "pop" noise. There is a lot of confusion and mis-information out in the public domain about neck cracking, not least because it is called a different thing by ea...
