Quick update on my Nuffield Joint Pain Program

[Kendrew]

Just to say I've been contacted by the program organiser at my local Nuffield gym. Unfortunately because of a high volume of interest, the next program is fully subscribed but my application apparently remains active. It may therefore be some time before I can get onto the course, but as soon as I do, I'll send some feedback.

Hard luck!!

😔 😟

[Bothan in reply to PMRpro]

Thank you, live in the west but will check it out

[Bcol]

That's a bit sad. 😢

[Kendrew in reply to Bcol]

Not to worry. Good things come to those who wait.... allegedly! 😄

[Bcol in reply to Kendrew]

Guess that depends on how long you have wait!! It is sad though given all the research you carried out.

[Kendrew in reply to Bcol]

Haha! I guess so.

Does it have a rolling intake? Ours does, the lady I saw said that people drop out. Disappointing when you’ve geared yourself up for it. X

[Kendrew in reply to SheffieldJane]

I'm assuming & hoping so as I was told that as soon as a place became available for me, I'd be notified. Fingers crossed 🤞

That’s bad luck just as you were raring to go. My experience was that quite a few people dropped out early leaving spaces free and others could join. Is there more than one Nuffield near to you? I’ve just finished the excellent joint pain program with great results. The trick will be keeping all the hard work going. Good luck. I hope you get accepted very soon. 😃

Hi Pangolin43,

Thankyou.

Unfortunately there's only the one gym that's near enough. There is another listed but it's a 45min drive away...if the M11 is clear!!

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to Pangolin43]

One is left to feel that is probably a penalty for the fact it is free!

A bit frustrating but it will be worth the wait. I found it extremely beneficial.

[Kendrew in reply to DAW28]

Thankyou. Good to hear you found it helpful.

Pro has kindly answered the question and provided you with the appropriate link.

It just sounded so good, and so many people seem to be benefiting from it, so I decided to sign up.

It's free and you'll be given more than just exercises to help manage joint pain....it offers a whole package of advice, strategies, tips etc to help manage individual pain & mobility needs.

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to Kendrew]

Did you mean this for Bothan?

[Kendrew in reply to PMRpro]

Sorry...yes I did.I'm all over the place at the moment. I'm just out but I'll redirect it asap. Thanks 👍

[Bothan]

Hi Kendrew , can you enlighten me and tell me what is the Nuffield programme. I live in Ireland and never heard of it. Thanks

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to Bothan]

It is an exercise programme run by Nuffield Health at their gyms

There is a Nuffield Health gym in Dublin so they may be able to tell you more about whether it exists in Ireland.
