Knee pain when running, squatting, or going down stairs? It could be Runner’s Knee (Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome).

The good news? Most cases respond very well to the right combination of strengthening, load management, and a gradual return to activity.

Don’t let knee pain keep you from doing what you love. Get assessed, get a plan, and get back to running with confidence.

Dealing with whiplash can feel overwhelming, but the right information is your best tool for a full recovery.

Whiplash is a neck sprain caused by your head suddenly snapping backward and forward—like a whip—which can injure the neck’s soft tissues. While most full recoveries happen within the first 3 months, roughly 20% to 50% of people may deal with long-term stiffness if the injury isn’t managed correctly.

Swipe through our latest guide to understand the physical and cognitive symptoms you shouldn’t ignore and how to take charge of your healing. ➡️

Signs & Symptoms to Watch For:

Physical: Neck pain, reduced range of motion, dizziness, blurry vision, or headaches starting at the base of the skull.

Cognitive: Difficulty concentrating, memory problems, irritability, or increased anxiety while driving.

The Empower Guide to Recovery:

✅ DO: Stay active with gentle neck movements, use heat/cold packs for pain, and start early rehab with a physiotherapist.
❌ DON’T: Use neck braces long-term (they can slow recovery), ignore persistent pain, or jump back into high-impact sports too soon.

When is it an emergency?
Please visit Emergency if you experience severe numbness, weakness, trouble walking, or loss of bladder/bowel control. For all other neck pain, see your doctor and visit a physiotherapist soon to guide your “fast but safe” healing journey.

Don’t let a sprain slow you down. Let’s get you back to feeling like yourself! ⬇️

Wrist pain on the pinky side? It might be your Ulnar Collateral Ligament (UCL)—a small but mighty stabilizer that keeps your wrist steady during every twist and turn. 🩺✨

Recovering from a UCL injury isn’t just about waiting; it’s about moving smart. Here is how to get back on track:

✅ The Game Plan:

Start physiotherapy early to guide your recovery.

Strengthen your shoulder and upper back to take the load off your wrist.

Use light movement to keep the joint mobile and happy.

Keep in mind, most people recover in 6 to 12 weeks with the right care!

❌ What to Avoid:

Don’t ignore that persistent ache.

Don’t push through sharp pain (your body is talking to you!).

Don’t stop moving entirely—stiffness is the enemy.

Physiotherapy helps restore strength, mobility, and stability safely so you can get back to doing what you love without the “click” or the “ouch.”

And come on in! Empower Physio will teach you how to do these exercises so you can get back to moving with confidence. 💪🏼
