Complete Physio in Central London shares expert advice for runners who miss two to three weeks of marathon training. Our physiotherapists explain how time away from your plan can affect fitness, what realistic adjustments can be made, and why jumping back in too quickly often leads to injury. We also look at how training goals can be adapted, the role of tapering, and practical ways to stay on track without increasing risk.

Our highly trained team work with athletes and patients of all levels to deliver safe and effective care.

In this episode of the Complete Physio podcast, Dr. John Houghton joins us to discuss recurring tendon issues affecting areas like the Achilles, elbow, and glutes. We explore why some patients experience repeated tendon pain, potential underlying autoimmune or inflammatory conditions, and the influence of factors such as genetics, age, cholesterol, and diabetes. Get practical advice on recognising signs of tendon problems that could indicate a systemic issue, and learn about treatment options ranging from physiotherapy to advanced therapies for managing long-term tendon health. Watch now to understand how tendon issues might signal deeper health conditions and when to seek specialist care.
