I had certainly planned to put some extra training in throughout January to get back on track after overindulging over the Christmas period, but I wasn’t planning on also having to do it following the Man Flu (a very serious health condition, as I am sure you are all aware!). I hope it didn’t get you too, but there certainly seems to have been a lot about this time around.
Knee injuries are common among athletes and active individuals, particularly those who engage in high-impact sports like skiing. For those who have previously suffered an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury, or who experience ongoing knee instability, participating in such activities can be daunting. Similarly, individuals with osteoarthritis often struggle with chronic knee pain that limits their daily activities. Fortunately, Ossur offers innovative solutions to support and protect the knee, enabling people to stay active with confidence. This article explores the benefits of the CTi3 knee brace for ACL injuries and the Unloader knee brace for osteoarthritis pain relief.
Training has been going well, consistency has been good, movement is improving but I am inwardly somewhat competitive. It felt like I needed something to aim for that would challenge me to firstly stay true to the course, but also to push me out of my comfort zone.
Que an evening out for a friend’s birthday, a few drinks in he announces he had signed up for the Brighton Half Marathon an event which I have previously run some 11 years or so ago. My result has always irked me, as I completed the race in 2 hours and 32 seconds. This included a wee stop, due to drinking far too much water pre-race in attempt to ensure I was hydrated! In short, I have always felt I should have completed it in sub 2 hours. Now perhaps it was the wine, but I felt compelled to sign up, so picked up my phone and with a few taps I was signed up…

Testimonials
I’ve been recommending Sam for years as he has done so much for my mobility. The Health Hub is a very welcoming environment and I enjoy my chats with Maggie – seem to learn something every time! With Covid-19 they are very thorough with their cleansing and wearing of PPE, so patients should feel very safe.
It is due to a number of practitioners, now at the Health Hub, that my recovery from a serious injury was the successful. I cannot praise Jodie and Tina enough for their knowledge, advice and support in 2018, which expedited my recovery giving me the opportunityto continue pursuing my sporting hobbies. I am so thankful they continue to deliver their skills from a new base, which houses the best professionals in the area. I have often joked with Sam that I need a sports top saying ‘This body has been rebuilt and regularly serviced by The Health Hub’.
Visited the health hub after my girlfriend had a good experience a while back for a sports massage from Tina. I injured my back and called for a same day appointment with Joe Lancaster, after a few sessions/treatments with Joe I am back to full health and managing to carry on with mountain biking again with no issues. No pressure from Joe or the Health hub staff to rebook etc, will definitely be back to see Joe and also get booked in for a sports massage to hopefully avoid injury again!
The health hub is a humane, professionally run clinic. The service received across the board is second to none.
I’ve been going to the Health Hub for a few years now and it’s always been incredible. When I injured my shoulder, Sam activated pressure points to encourage healing and helped with my movement to get back to the gym. Tina was great at helping me improve my range of motion through regular sports massage. And now, after suffering a sports knee injury, I’ve been seeing Martin, who has been great at offering his expertise and supporting my recovery with acupuncture, exercises and massage. Everyone at the Hub is super friendly and easy to talk to – when I wasn’t feeling too good the guys at reception even offered me biscuits! Can’t recommend them enough. Many of my family members have come here too and have always had great experiences. Thanks for everything the whole team does!
First class treatment always very professional and friendly. Nothing is too much trouble.
Incredibly thorough care and treatment in terms of identifying my issues and preparing an exercise regime that was updated ahead of appointments. Health Hub have gotten me on the right track to recovery.
Welcoming reception team. Sam has always relieved my back/shoulder/neck injuries and highly recommend health hub. Easy to book your own appointments online.
Sam has been brilliant dealing with my back and nerve issues, he is very professional yet caring at the same time, he listens and explains things in a way that makes sense to me and always offers advise / exercises to help with the pain, I can’t recommend the Health Hub enough.
