  • Isometric exercise and their effect on tendon pain

    Hi All,

    On this talking tendons episode, I dive into the very murky world of isometric exercise and their effect on tendon pain. A new study by Sinead Holden and team brings some (just a little) light to the evidence. I argue that isometrics are useful for managing tendinopathy, but using them for short term pain reduction is just the tip of the iceberg.

    Also if you're wanting to earn some extra CPD before Christmas check out my two upcoming workshops in December in Sydney and Melbourne (bookings).

  • Interview with Igor Sancho - Feasability of jumping and hopping as rehabilitation for Achilles tendinopathy.

    Hi All,

    In this episode of Talking Tendons I have an enjoyable chat with PhD student and Spanish physio, Igor Sancho. He has recently published a study that assessed the feasibility of using jumping and hopping as rehabilitation for people with Achilles tendinopathy. We discuss the study and how to apply these findings in clinic.

  • Selfcare & Selfcompassion
    The biggest morning tea is an annual fundraiser for cancer research in Australia.

    This year again I had the honour of guest speaker in Mount Gambier with some 350 people in the audience. Sorry for the background noise. The topic was SELFCARE & SELFCOMPASSION a much needed notion in our competitive world and after the self-esteem movement!

    It was directed towards carers and supporters of people who are effected by cancer. It is considered a helpful ingredient in the field of empathic care for ourselves and others; also in preventing burnout.

  • Isometrics in Tendinopathy: they are useful but they are not the cure for cancer

    Isometric exercise for tendinopathy has exploded onto the scene over the last few years. Unfortunately, the certainty of evidence surrounding their use is far less certain and compelling than what we are told about them but some people. They may work, but the reality is we don't fully understand how and for whom. This episode delves into this uncertainty and provides lots of top tips for how to use isometrics and when they are useful. Enjoy!
