Louis came to me with 5 tendinopathies across 4 body regions and hadn't managed a full training week in 18 months. He'd seen physios, chiros and an osteo in London and Sydney, and they all worked on where it hurt, but things didn't improve. For 3 weeks we didn't touch any of the painful areas, and all of them got better. I've cut this case from the masterclass into a 17 min watch, covering how a blocked right talus led to a right elbow tendinopathy and what we did about it.

Drop it in the comments and we'll brainstorm

Since the last one in June, We've had the attendees messaging with amazing results and cases they've cracked using exactly what we covered in the room, less guesswork and symptom management, more finding root causes and improving the underlying movement patterns. So it's happening again. 26th–27th November, London. I'm opening a handful of Super Early Bird spots before this goes anywhere public. If you're a physio, osteo, chiro, or coach and you're tired of referring your hardest cases out because you can only take them so far, this is built for exactly that gap.

I'm curious where people find this gets difficult. Could be something completely different from what's listed below, whatever's actually the hardest bit for you. I'd love to hear what people are coming up against in practice. Is it:

Here's a movement I like to teach someone to get onto their non-dominant or reluctant leg. Helps with shifts in squats, and hinges, and single side overuse in running.

Hey guys, I have a case with a client of mine. He has had a history of lower back pain for a long time. We worked on that years ago and resolved it. He came back to me a few years later and now struggles with neck pain. Mainly on the right side, his right shoulder and neck are very flared up and aggravated. His assessment findings are as such. He has a significant lateral hip shift to the right. His right foot in inverted and left foot everted. He has no stability in both in any plane of motion. His left lateral hip causes a lot of issues because he cannot load it at all. So any type of load hurts him tremendously. His right side is very compressed and right shoulder sits lower than the left. His t spine doesn't move well at all and nor do his ribs. T spine lateral flexion is worse on the right side. T spine rotation is worse on the right as well. Shoulder flexion is very limited, especially due to his lack of t spine extension. Both shoulder are winging but his right one is tipped anteriorly pretty excessively. He works on a desk and his sitting habit gets him flared up all the time. He is unable to focus at work, his neck tenses up and starts hurting him. What happens is he starts of well and about an hour in he ends up very rounded in the spine and shoulders and starts hurting. He then "fixes" his posture by tensing his t spine into extension and just hold it there. Making things much worse. I have been working with him for 2 months and he still gets lots of flare up and is hurting. His stress levels are high and sleep isn't great. lol quite a lot isn't it. So what i have done is i taught him about his capacity. That stress, sleep, diet, recovery all play a role in flare ups. So now when a flare up happens he doesn't get as stressed. I have given him some t spine extension work which helped him a lot with his overhead shoulder movement. I urged him not to brace his t spine as he exercises and sits. I also gave him some neck drills such as shrugs with more protraction and a long neck when he executes. We work on breathing drills to down regulate his nervous system and general push and pull exercises to increase his load capacity.
