Kelly's Consult

About this Consult:

Kelly has been experiencing right back/hip pain and tension for 2.5 years, as well as delayed pain after sexual activity.

Kelly had her first child, then experienced this pain during a second-trimester miscarriage after the passing of her mother.

Kelly describes that she had some “typical pregnancy pain” during her most recent pregnancy.

She then experienced a right knee injury which required surgery 3 months after birth.

Unfortunately the right hip pain and tension returned.

To date, Kelly has tried seeing three Physiotherapists (one of which being a Pelvic Health Physio).

She has been using “good posture”, “staying aligned”, breathing and stabilization techniques with little long term improvement.

Now her pain comes and goes inconsistently.

It is not related to her fitness classes or the frequency of manual therapy.

How does Antony navigate this assessment with Kelly while her three treating Physios are in the same room?

What movements, strategies and stories change Kelly’s ideas around her pain?

Who Is This Consult For? 

Health and fitness professionals who have female clients, will benefit from watching this unique consultation. Whether you’re a personal trainer/coach, a physical therapist/physiotherapist, a nutritionist or anything in-between, the concepts explored in this enlightening consult can help you deliver better customised care to your clients. 

What Will I Learn By Watching This Consult?

By watching the consult, you’ll see the kind of questions to ask your clients. You’ll see modelled how to go through the assessment process and how to partner with your clients instead of telling them what to do. 

Most importantly, you’ll learn how to apply these principles in your own practice. It’s an awesome way to get a different learning experience, rather than just knowledge – like someone speaking over powerpoint slides. It’s like you’re there with Antony, watching him work with someone just like your clients and being able to reflect and ask questions about the consult. 

Each consultation is as unique as the clients themselves. No two people are the same, so no two consults are ever the same. And no consult is ever perfect – you’ll be learning from observing mistakes as well.

Topics covered in this Consult include:

  • Impact Loading Exercises
  • Lifting/CrossFit/HIIT
  • Pain

Concepts also covered in this Consult:

  • Do something different

  • Change in tension, posture/position, strategy
  • Permission to break the rules 
  • Variability is key
  • Progress within minutes, not weeks
