Struggling with pain that just won’t shift?

If you’ve been dealing with tendon or joint pain that’s hung around for weeks or months despite rest, stretching, or over-the-counter painkillers, shockwave therapy (ESWT) might be worth exploring.

It works by delivering pulses of mechanical energy into the affected area. This helps stimulate blood flow and encourages your body’s own healing response in tissue that’s become stuck in a chronic, slow-to-heal state. It essentially gives the healing process a kick-start.
It can help with a range of conditions, including:
🔹Plantar fasciitis (heel pain) — and for this one specifically, it’s a treatment recommended by NICE
🔹 Achilles tendinopathy
🔹 Tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow
🔹 Shoulder pain from calcific tendinopathy
🔹 Hip and outer thigh pain (greater trochanteric pain syndrome)
🔹 Shin splints and other stubborn tendon injuries

It’s usually offered once other treatment hasn’t fully resolved things, and most people need a short course of sessions rather than just one to see the benefit. It’s a well-established, evidence-based option, not a quick fix, but a way of helping your body do what it’s already trying to do, more effectively.

If you have had a pain that has been sticking around longer than it should, get in touch and we can talk through whether shockwave therapy is right for you.

New to reformer and not sure where to start? ✨

We love helping people begin their pilates journey…and everyone starts somewhere different, so we’ve got options to meet you where you are.

Enter our Discovery 1-1s: one-on-one sessions designed to take the guesswork out of reformer pilates . You’ll get hands-on guidance from one of our instructors, learn how the machine works, move through the fundamentals, and build a bit of confidence before jumping into a group class, all at your own pace, with zero judgement.

Starting something new can feel daunting, but it doesn’t have to be. Let’s take that first step together.

Holiday flares can feel like they come from nowhere.

For anyone living with IBD, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, axial SpA or rheumatoid arthritis, they often make sense when you look at what has changed.
Food, sleep, activity, stress, hydration, travel and medication routines can all place extra demand on a body that usually does better with consistency.

That does not mean you should avoid holidays. It means your body may need a little more support around them.

A few simple anchors can help:
• keeping medication times consistent
• protecting sleep where possible
• pacing the first few days
• staying hydrated
• moving gently after travel
• keeping up with helpful exercises, even briefly
• knowing what to do if symptoms start
