Shoulder
Shoulders are one of Daniel's specialisms. He spent three and a half years as a shoulder specialist before Vortex.
Daniel often sees
- Rotator cuff problems
- Pain when you lift or reach overhead
- Dislocations and a shoulder that feels unstable
- Stiff, painful shoulders, including frozen shoulder
- Rehab after a collarbone or other fracture
- Rugby, gym and throwing injuries
“I damaged my shoulder playing rugby [...] He's got great experience in sports, so he really understood how it happened and what it needed.”
Back and neck
From a back that's gone this week to one that's been grumbling for years. Daniel has had back surgery himself, so he knows how much it takes over.
Daniel often sees
- Lower back pain, new or recurring
- Pain that travels into the buttock or leg
- Stiff neck and shoulders from desk work
- Back pain that stops you training or lifting
- Neck pain and headaches linked to posture
“I have been to many Physios for neck, shoulder and back pain. But I have never been to anyone like Dan. He has a lovely bedside manner and puts you at your ease straight away.”
Knee
Knees take a lot of load in running, football and the gym. The aim is to find out why yours is struggling, not just where it hurts.
Daniel often sees
- Pain around or behind the kneecap
- Ligament injuries, including ACL
- Cartilage and meniscus problems
- Tendon pain below the kneecap
- A knee that swells or gives way
“I have had 6 sessions with Daniel over a 12 week period to deal with a variety of issues involving my lower back, knee pain, very sore and swollen Achilles [...]”
Hip
Hip and groin problems often show up as something else: a sore back, a tight hamstring, or a knee that won't settle.
Daniel often sees
- Hip and groin pain
- Pain on the outside of the hip
- Hip flexor strains
- Stiff hips that limit running or squatting
“Dan was brilliant in identifying the cause of my hip pain [...]”
Running and gym injuries
The niggle that comes back every time you up the miles or the weight. Daniel trains himself and works on a gym floor, so the plan fits around your training.
Daniel often sees
- Achilles and calf pain
- Shin pain
- Hamstring strains
- Ankle sprains that keep going over
- Lifting injuries and pain under load
“Dan is knowledgeable, professional and very enthusiastic. He is passionate about your performance goals and how best to achieve them.”
Post-operative rehab
After surgery, the hard part is often the months that follow. Rehab runs alongside your surgeon's guidance, and carries on into the gym when you're ready.
Daniel often sees
- After ACL and other knee surgery
- After shoulder surgery
- After back surgery
- Getting strength back after a long spell off
“Super thorough and totally understood where I was with my rehab and how much to push me.”
