Twenty-eight years young, yes, we are and what an incredible journey. The doors to Sarum opened twenty-eight years ago on a snowy day, with two physios, one dream and a couple of clients. Since then, the team has grown, with some staying for many years. While others pass through, but all have left their mark. [...]
Skiing is invigorating; will you be on the slopes this year? While skiing is less mainstream here in the UK and requires you to hop on a plane, which might not be something you plan to do this year, it’s an exhilarating sport. I often talk about taking a walk in Winter to feel the [...]
Does Christmas give you backache, make your knees ping and your ankles swell? This time of year is fraught with danger, Christmas light wires trailing, scissors left where you’ve forgotten them and a turkey the size of a bowling ball to lift into the oven. The time when you’re more likely to disappear into the [...]
The calm before the storm, by which I mean Christmas – there I said it. Hard to believe that 2021 is almost at an end. And again, we are left wondering if next year will be different – better. Safe to say, none of us could have predicted the last two years, and many of [...]
Spooks and Creaks - Pains and Shrieks. Yes, it's a Halloween themed blog this month, giving me a chance to talk about all things bonkers, I mean conkers. You see, Autumn is my absolute favourite time of year. The colours are gorgeous, the falling leaves stunning, and yes, collecting conkers - I love it. Catching [...]
Working from home can be a right pain in the neck, back and wrists. It can create a ball of pain in the shoulders, and you’ve had enough. In the last few blogs, I've shared exercises for the golfer, runner and tennis player but on our Facebook page, we had a request for the home [...]
Paralympics for more inspiration; yes, if the Olympics wasn’t enough, the Paralympics has started. First, I want to take a moment to touch on the fantastic event that was the Olympics 2020. This year showing inclusivity with new events and participants as young as twelve and thirteen taking part. Not forgetting Phillip Dutton (57), the [...]
Running is good for the soul. It is you pounding the streets or running in the park – mind in neutral and being at one with the outside environment. Space for no thought or letting your thoughts wander. It is smiling at the couple walking their dog or waving at the children on the swings. [...]
Tennis, strawberries and cream and the all-important Pimms. Although obviously at Sarum we’re not seeing injuries from too many strawberries or Pimms, we are seeing tennis injuries. So, with Wimbledon just around the corner, this blog will focus on the game of white shorts and yellow balls. And here is the reason we are seeing [...]
Golfers are back in the swing of it. In fact, we’re all getting out and about and back to the sports we love. Springing into action and taking advantage of restrictions lifting – it’s wonderful, isn’t it? But at Sarum, we’ve noticed injuries being presented because a little more exuberance has been shown than was [...]
