Each week we answer Sports Medicine and Strength & Conditioning questions that are tweeted and/or e-mailed to us.

This week, the excellent running store Advance Performance (@Advance_P) asked us a question about ‘Shin Splints’ – because it is a common problem amongst runners…

Of the endless list of runners and sports people that we’ve helped over the past 5 years, ‘shin splints’ has to be very high in the “list of things that people come to see us about’.

In this video we talk about what shin splints is, and isn’t – we talk about how important a correct diagnosis is, the things that we will consider/help you with if you present with shin splints, and show you some useful things that you can do at home to help; if it turns out (as it does in most cases) that you actually have something called “MTTP”…

As I mentioned in the previous post, we recently sat down with a few of our clients and asked them to tell their stories on camera.

This client decided to take up running after the birth of her children, and soon suffered leg pains after just short distances. She visited several practitioners to solve the problem but just couldn’t find a solution. In this video she tells her story and talks about her experiences as a Core Cambridge client – and how, despite the history, we helped her to achieve the ‘best thing I’ve ever done’!

This week, the excellent running store Advance Performance (@Advance_P) asked us a question about ‘Plantar Fasciitis’ – because it is a common problem amongst runners.

so this is our reply…

We talk briefly about what it is and how it can be treated and then we demonstrate some simple things that can be done at home or in the gym to help tackle some of these issues.
