Tom said that after he exercises he feels “chuffed, proud & happy” ☺️ Let’s send him some love and encouragement in the comments below 👇🏽

So a little update on the KT Tape UK, KT recovery+ wave product. Prior to starting I had been needing to take max doses each day of codiene, paracetamol, strong NSAIDs and diazepam. I’d been popping these for over 2 weeks. I applied the product as advised and wore for at least 12 hrs. Now the pain I have is around my QL but it’s a difficult area to trigger point or stretch, being a deep muscle. Also the painful area moves. So as the pain moved, over a period of 3-4days, I re-adjusted the product to ensure it covered the most painful area. Each time after a few hrs, my pain receded. I’ve not needed any other pain meds while triallling the product. After 4 days my pain had gone. I removed it and carried on my normal duties. 2 days later it was twinging again. I reapplied it, later that day the pain had gone. I continued to wear it for another 24 hrs and removed it. The pain hasn’t returned. Now placebo or not, for me it’s worked. I know my pain will return, that’s because my biomechanics at my foot is altered and effects my back, but the fact I can now not have to take my cocktail of pills, is a thumbs up from me.

I contacted KT tape uk for their research paper info and they have responded and provided a number of papers to review. I’ll do that separately. However I briefly looked over the first paper and I’m a little miffed that the product in the paper is not actually theirs along with some other discrepancies in the claims and research methods, so I’m not convinced with their claims of being “clinically proven for pain relief” as being specifically for their product, but I’ll have a closer look and review the papers in more detail.

Honestly though grab one while it’s on a Black Friday offer, it’s definitely worth a go 👍

Yes 🙌🏻 this 👇 so many times I see people posts on running groups and suddenly everyone is diagnosing plantar fasciitis. I get it, it is a common occurrence, but it’s not the only cause. It needs assessing properly by a suitably qualified person.

Application of the KT Recovery+ Wave. I’ll wear this for the recommended period over the next few days and feedback to you. I’ve also not taken any of my pain meds since yesterday to make sure I can give a true reflection of how this works and what level, if any, pain relief it provides

Might be early to bed, but still time for course work ready for the practical sessions at the weekend ☺️

Finally, I’m always telling people you can’t stretch the ITB, check out the latest research

New research has found that foam rolling or stretching the ITB doesn’t reduce stiffness or increase range of movement.
