Thanks very much to everybody who joined us for this weekend’s online #KnowPain course. It was a pleasure working with you all. Have fun putting your learning into action!

[Will Turner @WT_Physio]

@knowpainmike Thanks for your time Mike, really interesting weekend! I can’t say the course met my expectations because it completely changed my expectations of what I thought I wanted to learn 🤪 Will let you know what I’ve been brave enough to try

Cheers @TheHipPhysio for the cracking study day organised by @TherapiesEKHUFT. Very engaging and practical! I’m gonna be dreaming about hips tonight 🙄

Here is a thread of papers discussing metabolic factors and osteoarthritis for anyone who is interested 🧵 👇

@paintoolkit2 @Retlouping @MKargelaDPT Incredibly powerful video, thank you for sharing Pete! Working in an inpatient setting I often try to remind myself that whilst it might just be another day for me, this could be the scariest, most challenging day of someone else’s life, so try and behave accordingly

Lovely gesture from @TheOpen donating some tickets to @EKHUFT. Had a fantastic day out watching some great golf! 🏌️‍♂️⛳️ @TherapiesEKHUFT

'When you look at the evidence, painkillers do not work for the majority of people with chronic pain'.

With #LineOfDuty’s Steve Arnott developing an addiction to painkillers, @xandvt reveals the reality of the situation - and what the Medicines watchdog is now recommending.

@Tanya_Physio Love this 💪🏽💪🏽

[Will Turner @WT_Physio]

@AdamMeakins Couldn’t agree more! I still always reflect on that experience and if I now feel someone is “exaggerating” their symptoms, I like to try and consider WHY they might be doing that, instead of just writing it off (which is often easier)

[Will Turner @WT_Physio]

@AdamMeakins Eventually one physio, without necessarily saying it, made me feel as if he believed me...few sessions later, bit of advice, bit of exercise and a whole new mindset...my issues were under MY control!

Cinderella ending...I’m now a physio 💪🏽

[Will Turner @WT_Physio]

@AdamMeakins Love this! I spent my late teens struggling with lower back issues. Had a couple different therapists/doctors make me feel like I was making it all up, got to the point where I was exaggerating my symptoms in the hope someone would actually listen to me.

Today’s activity, dismantling the old shed 🔨 And without being dramatic...almost losing a foot in the process 😳 #WeActiveChallenge #AHPsActive

[Will Turner @WT_Physio]

Another good walk ruined ⛳️ 😂
14.5km with about 15kg of waterproofs on the back (didn’t rain though 😒), good exercise and good fun #WeActiveChallenge #AHPsActive

[Will Turner @WT_Physio]

@boris_noel I wouldn’t want to say who’s worked harder then 👀😂

[Will Turner @WT_Physio]

Given how hot it was at work today, that’ll do...

@JjordanTtaylor Didn’t want to get it dirty thank you 😂

[Will Turner @WT_Physio]

Patiently waited for some shade in the garden 🥵 #WeActiveChallenge #AHPsActive

[Will Turner @WT_Physio]

Bit of fruit picking to get the steps in today 🍎🍑 #WeActiveChallenge #AHPsActive

[Will Turner @WT_Physio]

First go at stand up paddleboarding this morning...or what I repeatedly did, which was...kneel down for ages, slowly stand up and fall off paddleboarding...great fun 😂 #WeActiveChallenge #AHPsActive

[Will Turner @WT_Physio]

A soggy but fun 35 mile ride in North Devon today 🚴‍♂️ Been a while since I’ve been on a bike...so I’ll be walking like John Wayne tomorrow 🤕 #WeActiveChallenge #AHPsActive
