back pain

Walking away from back pain.

An interesting case in clinic yesterday. A lady was suffering with back pain on extension in her yoga practice, she also had a history of a now resolved frozen shoulder on her right. It was a bit of a head scratcher at first, so we went back. Why the frozen shoulder? “I don’t suppose the … Read more

Chronic Pain – A Heavy Burden To Carry

Have you ever tried lifting a heavy suitcase and having to walk…. and walk…. and walk. When it finally feels like your forearms are pumped up like balloons and your arms are 5 inches longer than when you started, you rest it down, destination reached.

TMJ dysfunction

TMJ DYSFUNCTION OR 100% FUNCTIONAL?

My first introduction to TMJ dysfunction was many years ago while I was still a dancer. I was seeing a girl at the time, who was renowned for her love of chatting, however one day I popped round only to be greeted by a rather sheepish looking face and an uncharacteristic silence. “My jaw is … Read more

bunions and the big toe

Osteopathy, Bunions and the stiff big toe

The big toe, or Hallux to its friends, is one of my favourite parts of the body. This rather strange looking piece of anatomy, which is bolted onto our extremities and often forgotten about, is in fact a crucial power house when it comes to movement. With every step we take this joint (the metatarsal … Read more

Nearly everyone has turned an ankle at some point in their lives, be it tottering on high  heels, missing the curb after a beer or two or catching a pot hole while out jogging. We hobble around for a few weeks, curse a bit then the memory slips into obscurity – or does it? Surely … Read more

The Movement Lab – It’s Intention

September 2014 sees the first collaboration between myself and Ulric Whyte (yoga teacher extraordinaire) at the Life Center in Islington. Here a conversation on a plane on the way back from San Fransisco becomes real and ‘Movement Lab’ will be born. In preparation for the event, I decided to write down my intention. While every idea should … Read more

pronation

Pronation-public enemy number 1?

Anti pronation, zero drop, bare foot….the choice of foot wear available is unlimited, and the flavour of the month changes like a David Beckham haircut. We are told that over pronation is bad and should be avoided by barricading the foot behind layers of foam cushioning, and that if left unsupported, will cause knee pain, … Read more

Scars-the tip of the iceberg

Me: “Have you got any scars or have you had any operations or surgery”Patient: “No, the surgeon’s knife has never touched my unblemished skin”Me: “Positive?”Patient: “110%”If I had a £10 wager on every patient who swore blind that they had no scars I would be retired to my villa overlooking the Caribbean sea by now. … Read more
