Generally muscle cramps, sprains and aches are experienced regularly either during an extensive run or after. These general injuries can be prevented by taking the time to properly warm up the major muscles of the body.
Ankle Sprains

- Ice

Achilles Tendonitis
Shin Splints
‘Shin splints’ isn’t really a single medical condition but a term used to describe a symptom rather than a cause. Shin splints are a good indication of an underlying problem.
This term also known as ‘tibial stress syndrome’ refers to a nonspecific pain that occurs in the lower leg during running. Repetitive impact forces during jogging or running often causes shin pain. Shin splint pain can occur in the anterior or posterior aspect of the leg and typically begins at the start of a run but then lessens as running continues.
‘Shin splints’ isn’t really a single medical condition but a term used to describe a symptom rather than a cause. Shin splints are a good indication of an underlying problem.
They might be caused by:
- Tibial stress fracture Overuse which causes irritated and swollen muscles
- Excessive foot pronation due to flat feet (reduced plantar arch) causing stretching of the muscles and tendons
- If suffering from shin splints the first thing to do is cease running until it causes no pain.
- RICE should be applied as soon as possible for 20-30 minutes every 3 or 4 hours until the pain has gone.
- Again physical therapy is the best option to provide advice on gait, running, mobilisation treatment, orthotics and the best exercises to strengthen your muscles.
So take this into account before deciding to commit to a long distance run, as you need an adequate amount of time to prepare your muscles and joints for this strenuous activity. Having tight calf muscles and suddenly starting an aggressive exercise program can also put extra stress on the Achilles tendon.
- Running should be avoided until your therapist says otherwise and a specific treatment plan should be prepared for you.
- Ever felt like your body isn’t straight?
- Constantly feel like your off balance?
- Look in the mirror and noticed that you are leaning to one side or that one shoulder is higher than the other?
- Well guess what – there’s a reason.
- The majority of postural issues is caused by a misaligned or tilted pelvis which of course attributes to the common complaint of lower back pain as well.
- A misaligned pelvis can lead to one hip being higher than the other which in turn can make one leg seem longer.
- A misaligned pelvis can also create a lateral curvature in the spine called a scoliosis.
- So don’t panic if you have been told or you think you have a scoliosis as usually once the pelvis is realigned this curvature in the spine disappears.
- An initial assessment at Physiowell, with either an Osteopath or Chiropractor will determine your postural alignment and create a thorough treatment plan to realign your body and fix your posture.
