Victory’s Head of Performance, Helen Murawska, explains why we don’t just stop at helping you to get out of pain – our aim is to help you stay there, and to avoid reinjury. And our performance team are here to help you do just that!
Recovering from breast cancer isn’t just about surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy – it’s also important to maintain your movement, especially around the shoulder, so that you can get back to a fairly normal life. Meet our lovely patient Jill, who’s managing just that.
This week, we explore the science behind the hormones of acute and chronic stress – adrenaline, noradrenaline and cortisol. How do they work, when do they help us – and when do they become a problem?
