Have you been told that your heel pain is being caused by a heel spur? 💁‍♀️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For many people, it has been a long held belief that heel pain is caused by a little spur of calcification which grows on the front edge of the heel bone. Swipe across to see 👉
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
More recently it has been found that heel spurs occur in quite a high number of people who are not experiencing any pain at all. So we now understand that a heel spur can actually be a “normal” incidental finding on an x-ray and may have no contribution to your heel pain at all. This means that we don’t need to focus on the spur and that the spur doesn’t have to go away for the pain to subside.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Heel pain has many possible sources from Plantar Fascia overload, to fatty padding or nerve irritation. It’s important to look at all options and look at why the heel pain started in the first place.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For anyone wanting some more information about what’s causing their heel pain, our Heel Pain E-Book is available as a free download via the link in our bio 😊

👉 Helping others to set and achieve their goals is a passion of ’s from
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Today we had Lena on as a guest to talk about how she helps her clients achieve their goals. There were many similarities in the way we help our clients to plan their rehab pathway.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Some of my favourite takeaways included:
• Breaking down your goal to the bare bones and find our small actionable tasks
• Acknowledging that your progression will not be linear. There are going to be hurdles so we need to put steps in place to overcome them
• Most of the biggest successes are born from “failures”
• A goal can make us feel a little uneasy - we need to get comfortable with being uncomfortable!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As Lena likes to say (which is one of my favourites) - Become accountable and “do what you say you’ll do”
