Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is The Recovery Strategy™?
The Recovery Strategy™ is a structured approach to injury recovery and pain prevention that restores natural movement, reduces pain, and prevents recurring injuries by addressing the underlying causes rather than just symptoms. It follows a four-step methodology—Release, Strengthen, Lengthen, and Stabilise—to optimise foot function and movement efficiency.
2. How does The Recovery Strategy™ differ from traditional rehab or treatment methods?
Most traditional rehab focuses on short-term pain relief rather than correcting the underlying cause. The Recovery Strategy™ is designed to create long-term solutions for pain and injury recovery by improving biomechanics, stability, and movement efficiency.
3. Why does foot function play such a crucial role in pain and injury recovery?
Your feet are your foundation. When foot function is compromised, it leads to compensations, instability, and stress on the joints and muscles. This contributes to chronic pain, overuse injuries, and movement inefficiencies. By restoring foot mechanics, The Recovery Strategy™ improves recovery outcomes and reduces the risk of future pain.
4. What are the four core principles of The Recovery Strategy™?
The Recovery Strategy™ follows a structured four-step methodology:
- Release – Reduce tension and pain by addressing muscle tightness, fascial restrictions, and nerve compression.
- Strengthen – Build intrinsic and extrinsic foot strength to improve resilience and recovery.
- Lengthen – Restore mobility and flexibility in the foot, ankle, and lower body to enhance movement efficiency.
- Stabilise – Develop postural control and balance to support injury resistance and lasting recovery.
6. Can The Recovery Strategy™ help with chronic injuries or recurring pain?
Absolutely. Many chronic injuries are caused by poor foot mechanics, compensations, and joint restrictions. The Recovery Strategy™ helps restore natural function, improve tissue health, and strengthen weak areas, leading to more effective injury recovery and long-term pain prevention.
5. I don’t have foot pain—do I still need The Recovery Strategy™?
Yes! Pain isn’t the first sign of dysfunction—it’s often the last. Many people don’t notice movement issues until they experience chronic discomfort or repeated injuries. By addressing underlying imbalances early, The Recovery Strategy™ helps prevent future pain and movement limitations.

7. How long does it take to see results?
Recovery timelines vary based on injury history, movement patterns, and consistency. Some individuals experience immediate relief, while deeper corrections take weeks or months to fully integrate. The key is consistent, progressive work to ensure lasting recovery and pain prevention.
8. Can The Recovery Strategy™ improve balance and posture?
Yes. Stability starts at the feet. When the foot and ankle lack strength or mobility, it affects balance, posture, and overall movement control. The Recovery Strategy™ restores foot-to-core stability, improving postural alignment and reducing strain on other joints.
9. Is The Recovery Strategy™ only for athletes, or can anyone benefit?
Anyone can benefit—whether you're recovering from an injury, managing chronic pain, or simply looking to move better. Foot function impacts everyone's daily life, from walking and standing to athletic performance. The Recovery Strategy™ provides individualised solutions for long-term movement health.
