Whiplash injury after a motor vehicle accident
Whiplash is a terminology for neck pain post car accident. This article gives you an understanding of how we treat whiplash, and what sort of support that you can expect to have here in Australia.
Core stability and control
How core muscles are protectors of your spine, and how do you make sure that their natural muscle tone supports your posture. The key is not to consciously keep your core activated - that is a very outdated. The key is to have that core muscle tone so it supports you without thinking about. That is core stability and core control!
Barefoot strengthening helps you to conquer the distance
Your foot and ankle can be strengthened with safe barefooted activities. Provided that the environment is right, the intrinsic muscles underneath your feet can work very hard for you and subsequently serve to support your foot arch. This has the benefit of injury prevention.
Meniscus injury may not require surgery
Certain exercises can support knee meniscus health by strengthening surrounding muscles, improving joint stability, and enhancing mobility. Targeted movements for the quadriceps, hamstrings, and hip muscles reduce stress on the meniscus, promoting better knee alignment and resilience. These exercises aid in pain management, prevent further injury, and support long-term knee function.
Correct squat lifting technique helps you to stay strong
Using correct squat lifting technique not only strengthens your muscles and bones but also boosts mental health. Loading through the body stimulates bone density, reducing injury risk, while releasing endorphins that enhance mood and reduce stress. Practicing safe, effective squat techniques builds physical resilience and supports overall well-being.
Sacro-iliac joint pain
A high percentage of lower back pain originates from the sacroiliac joint (SIJ), a common but often overlooked source of discomfort. The good news? SIJ-related pain is highly treatable. With targeted assessment and therapy, our physios can help relieve your pain and restore comfortable movement.
Upper cross posture from long screen time
Upper-crossed posture from long screen time leads to forward-rounded shoulders and a strained neck, common among those with long office hours. This posture imbalance places excess tension on the neck and upper back muscles, often resulting in discomfort and stiffness. Addressing this with targeted exercises can help realign posture and reduce neck strain.
How dry needling works?
Dry needling targets trigger points in muscles, effectively reducing musculoskeletal (MSK) pain by relieving muscle tension and promoting natural healing. This technique helps to release tight areas, improve blood flow, and restore mobility, providing quick relief and supporting long-term pain management.
Better sports performance with controlled and efficient movements
Controlled, smooth movement is essential for preventing musculoskeletal (MSK) pain, as it minimizes strain on joints and muscles. When movement is well-coordinated, it reduces the risk of overloading specific areas, enhancing balance and stability. Developing movement control promotes joint alignment, prevents injury, and supports long-term physical health.
How does acupuncture work?
Acupuncture can effectively reduce musculoskeletal (MSK) pain by stimulating the body’s natural healing response. By targeting specific points, acupuncture releases endorphins, reduces inflammation, and improves blood flow to affected areas. This holistic approach not only alleviates pain but also supports muscle relaxation and improved mobility.
Side-lying rotator cuff
The side-lying shoulder rotator cuff strengthening exercise is a gentle starting point for shoulder rehabilitation, ideal for acute shoulder pain and frozen shoulder. This low-impact movement activates stabilizing muscles without strain, promoting mobility, reducing pain, and supporting gradual recovery in a safe, controlled manner.
Women’s Health Physiotherapy
Women’s health physiotherapy focuses on addressing physical issues unique to women, including pelvic floor dysfunction, prenatal and postnatal care, incontinence, and recovery from surgeries. Through targeted exercises and therapeutic techniques, women’s health physio supports pain relief, improves pelvic stability, and enhances overall quality of life for women across all stages of life.
