RheumMates is back and oh wow do we cover some ground in this podcast. Faye Stones is a Physio and has Ankylosing Spondylitis.

Jack March and Faye cover topics like acceptance of the diagnosis, how her management has varied over time and what happened during her pregnancies. So much to learn in this podcast and I hope it is of use to Therapists and women with Axial Spondylitis alike!

Session 100 creeps closer and boy oh boy do we have some exciting news for you to come... 

Beforehand though we continue to record sessions of super high quality and this month we are delighted to speak to Steve Miller of Grow Physio who bridges gaps between the Sports and Musculoskeletal landscape.

How different are these areas of practice? Can you specialise in both or do you become a generalist? Where are the overlaps and what are the differences?

A fascinating discussion and we would love to hear from you about it so email us [email protected] or get in touch by social media with the team on @tpmpodcasts, Jack @jackachew and Steve @growphysio

If you havent got a ticket for Therapy Live Sport THERE IS STILL TIME 

How comfortable are you asking for help to support your mental health/wellbeing at work? And if you ask, is help forthcoming?

If you are are manager, business owner or colleague being asked for help, what resources and systems are in place to provide that kind of support?

In this episode I talk to Susie Martin about her own experiences of asking for help at work and moving away from a 'stiff upper lip' culture. We also discuss the use of the Mind Wellness Action Plan at work.

More jam packed than a jam packed sarnie - in this episode we combine two huge in-person events with live recordings and interviews from The Arnold Sports Festival 2021 as well as a preview of Therapy Expo 2021 with event director Shelley Williams and Liam Richardson.  

Liam and Shelley introduce us this this years Therapy Expo, telling us why it's "our" show and how they are catering for the needs of therapists. They have very kindly provided listeners of The Massage Matters Podcast with a 20% discount on tickets - use MASSAGE20 as the voucher code on checkout.  

Then we fly back in time to last weekend's extravaganza at The Arnold, where The School and Physio Matters joined forces to provide the event with physiotherapy and soft tissue therapy cover.  Live recordings and interviews with our very own therapy team, motivational speaker Mark Ormrod and the legendary Wim Hof!

This month Jack is joined by Jo Turner as co-host to speak to Karen Forshaw and Chrissie Mowbray about resilience for health care professionals, this is both well timed and brilliant. A real insight into a whole host of ways you can be more resilient in these challenging times. 

The topic goes so much further than this podcast, see below for details of Karen and Chrissie's book and keep an eye on social media for 2 events we are running with them to let you get much much more training in Resilience!

93! 93 months in a row and we are still here. This month's episode is an absolute belter, pure unmissable gold. Rhiannon Griffiths has been mega popular not once but twice at Therapy Live conferences and we could not ignore the requests to get her on the pod as well.

Rhiannon and Jack dive deep into the Menopause and how it affects women including peri-menopausally. What do we need to consider from an MSK perspective as well as wider health implications.

One of the most popular topic requests from listeners to TPMP is the impact of Obesity in MSK. Jack and Jennifer cover an incredible amount of ground on the subject leaving virtually no stone unturned. 

Obesity is on the increase and as MSK Therapists we must know much more about it and its effects. This is a must listen podcast.

In this episode, Jo discusses all manner of things with Evie under the umbrella of 'What is enough?' What is enough money, experience, credibility? What makes a good physio/clinician? And what advice would we give our younger selves? Evie also tells me how she came to be founder of PhysiosOnline, her hopes and some might say humble ambitions for what this project might achieve.
