Brilliant chat with @painsci on @runchatlive Trigger (point) warning: Interesting story about a guy rubbing his own skin off to reach a "trigger point" that turns out to be bone...🤢🥴😱. Thanks for the great convo Matt and Paul 👏 runchatlive.com/paul-ingraham-…

@beckytLCFC I’ll take it - as long as we agree what is better eating?

Serious Question... If I paid you every month to eat better, work out and share your results, would you take the job? 🥙🤸🏻‍♂️💜

If you think you may be developing symptoms of ME/CFS after COVID-19 infection, join this new group where long haulers can share their experiences and receive support and wisdom from long-time ME/CFS patients: m.facebook.com/groups/2057030…

What I really like about this trial is that their inclusion criteria were in sync with clinical reality. Approx 25% of the participants had widespread pain. Many previous studies have effectively excluded those at ⬆️ risk of poorer outcomes by restricting the inclusion criteria.

Superb overview by Prof Bingel on the role of expectation in shaping the pain experience. journals.lww.com/pain/Fulltext/…

@OnlinePhysios I pondered this while rehabbing client yesterday - how it is that the animal kingdom does not have physios / chiro/ Osteo and they seem to recover very well most of the time...

If physiotherapists, chiropractors, osteopaths and manual therapists of all kinds didn't exist and had never existed... Would there be more back pain in the world, or less? 🤔

In this article, Dr. Bronnie Lennox Thompson shines light on how people in #pain may be more likely to benefit from #movement that is personally gratifying (e.g. gardening, dancing, hiking) as opposed to a standard exercise prescription. healthskills.wordpress.com/2020/08/10/is-… @adiemusfree

@SanDiegoSummit @MikeMakher @PaulBliton @PhysioMeScience It's always been integral to persistent pain management since the early days of Turk, Main, Fordyce and Loeser. It's just not effective to change behaviour but it does help reconceptualising hurt vs harm, & intro to mgmt not cure

Fresh from live chat hour with Joletta Belton and Peter O'Sullivan. What an insightful discussion about understanding pain. Please consider trying to find an hour to catch up, promise it's worth your time facebook.com/watch/?v=10026… @MyCuppaJo @PeteOSullivanPT #JOSPTasks #yourJOSPT

@Browndawg81 Sorry to hear that. It is going to take time (discuss with surgeon and rehab team) - all you can do is work hard at your rehab, be patient. Good luck with journey ahead

Just ruptured my Achilles and due surgery to repair. Was wondering if any runners have also ruptured their Achilles and how long it took them to recover, and if they ever returned to their previous level or improved. Thanks in advance for any advice #ukrunchat #runningmotivation

@Liz_Kentish @UKRunChat @AndrewHulbert For 7km you should not need any additional nutrition or hydration (weather dependent- as with some of the recent heat but of fluid sensible). Best is to test various options and find what works for you. Keep going!

Q1. I’m new to running (March this year) and now run twice a week at 7am, either 7km or 10km. What should I be eating the night before and should I eat something before my run? @AndrewHulbert @UKRunChat #ukrunchat

@Swiffin @UKRunChat As long as there are no signs of worsening neurology ( such as weakness, loss of function or control) then a gradual increase in activity is encouraged. As with all these things probably good to get some advice and guidance following assessment.

Question for the @UKRunChat fitness and health gurus out there. Few weeks back, I slipped a disc. Much more mobile now but still a little pain. Keen to do some sort of yoga or something to aid recovery and build a stronger back but should I give it a miss? Any advice? #ukrunchat

@Retlouping @OnlinePhysios @GatesPhysio Careful David or you will join me on the bench -

@OnlinePhysios @GatesPhysio C other. The world is rarely dichotomous But I understand Pushed I will choose A because the likely hood of success is greater due to the sum of contextual effects. You stated A would “do their honest best to help” my mum would see B once and never go back.

🤔Your mom has chronic disabling back pain and you have to choose between: A) A non evidence-based therapist who's very kind and warm, will do their honest best to help, who you think your mom will like B) A knowledgeable, evidence-based clinician who your mom prob won't like

@GreenwichHour Towel in the freezer and then lay it on you when you go to bed - or even just folded on your head

HELLO EVERYONE! Welcome to this week's #GreenwichHour! Hot 🌡️enough for you 😜? What are you doing to combat the heat? Let's spread some wisdom and tips so we can all get a better night's sleep.

@OnlinePhysios He he!

@TheVideoPhysio Alas! You're out of the game! Go sit on the bench! 🤣🤣

@OnlinePhysios Ah but I choose not to have to 😇

@TheVideoPhysio Nope, sorry Greg, that's cheating. It's a thought experiment where you HAVE to pick A or B. 😈

@homepics49 @UKRunChat @runr_uk @AWRunFitness @VirtualRunnerUK @HybridRunning Groin pain on a hop test I would flag - and recommend you speak to someone or have it assessed. I would probably recommend not running on it until you have had it assessed - Twitter is not the place for medical diagnosis / management. If you want to chat further DM me.

@TheVideoPhysio @UKRunChat @runr_uk @AWRunFitness @VirtualRunnerUK @HybridRunning Morning, I’ve just done that and yes it does

Advice need please, after my run on Saturday I now have a groin strain what device can anyone give me on how to sort this out thank you in advance @UKRunChat @runr_uk @AWRunFitness @VirtualRunnerUK @HybridRunning #painful #help
