🙌A huge congratulations to everyone who took part in the Sunday Chester running events...

👍...and a massive well done to our physio Steph who completed the Chester Marathon and the triple series !

🙌At CoActive Physio our Pilates instructors are experts in recovery and pain management.

👩‍⚕️Physiotherapist-lead Pilates is very much aimed at complementing our clients' recovery programme. Exercises are modified to suit your personal needs from a health and injury point of view.

🤔If you are struggling with injury, pain and/or a long term health condition, which is preventing you from joining in other activities that many take for granted, then we can help you.

👌We have a dedicated Pilates space in our clinic where you will have an hour of 1:1 private tuition, following an initial consultation with your therapist who will take into account your individual circumstances, medical history and goals.

👉If you then wish to join in the classes, you can be reassured we keep them to small numbers so that each individual goal and need is still met within the group session. Or you may be more suited to regular 1:1 sessions to build up your individual progressions.

🧘‍♀️Clinical Pilates is all about the individual and is great for injury prevention, by improving your awareness of your own body. We promote strength and flexibility while avoiding excess strain on joints. We also help our clients through Pilates with postnatal recovery, menopause symptoms, post operative recovery, hypermobility syndromes, arthritis....and much more

🙌Today is National Fitness Day!

🏃‍♀️As healthcare professionals, we are continually advocating movement and physical activity to our clients to help them on their health and fitness journeys.

❤️The key theme this year is "Your Health is for Life".

👌Fitness is not about exercising at just that one moment in time, but about the longevity in taking small steps towards a lifestyle which can both protect and improve your health.

😎Just simply moving more each day can have many benefits to your overall health.

👉If pain or injury is holding you back from physical activity, then contact us today to book in with one of our specialists, who can help you on your journey to a healthier, fitter you

🌎Yesterday was World Physiotherapy Day and this year's focus is low back pain...

👉Here are a few key messages from this year's campaign:

😞Low back pain is the leading cause of disability worldwide

🙌Physiotherapists provide expert advice, guidance and treatment for low back pain

😎Backs become healthier with movement and physical activity ; self management and exercise are key

A few key myths:

❗️Myth: I need a scan or xray to know whats wrong with my back ....

Fact: Scans rarely show the cause of low back pain. So called abnormal findings on scans like disc bulges, disc degeneration & arthritis are common and normal in most people without pain, especially as they get older

** Your Physiotherapist is well trained in looking out for indications when a patient DOES need a scan, for example if sinister pathogy is suspected or if symptoms are not resolving/being managed with physiotherapy alone.

❗️Myth: I should rest and stay in bed to help my back recover...

Fact: immediately following the injury, avoiding aggravating activities may help to relieve pain. However, light exercise & gradual return to usual activities is important for your recovery

❗️Myth: it hurts when I do exercise & move so I must be doing harm...

Fact: Backs become healthier with movement & physical activity. The spine is strong and capable of safely moving & loading. Warnings to protect the spine are often not necessary, and can lead to fear & overprotection.

❗️Myth: Strong pain killers will speed up my recovery

Fact: Simple pain killers such as ibuprofen should only be used alongside other measures, such as exercise, and only then for a short period of time. Pain killers can help your recovery by enabling you to move more and so gain the benefits of exercise rehabilitation. They will not speed up tissue healing. Depending on the nature of your back pain & any other symptoms you may be experiencing, different types of pain relief may or may not be beneficial. Discuss this with your physiotherapist or GP
