24.01.2022 WORKOUT WEDNESDAY. . FRONT & LATERAL RAISES. . The deltoids are an important muscle involved in moving the shoulder.

The further the weight is from the body, the harder your body has to stabilise in order to move the load efficiently!... . There are some minor changes to face-to-face consultations.

24.01.2022 CLIENT SPOTLIGHT. . TIM D. . Everybody, meet Tim! He has been attending the clinic for almost 4 years now. We love throwing different and challenging exercises at him because he is a champ at giving things a try! Here is what Tim has to say about staying active with us:... My biggest achievement at CHOP has been coming from having on-again/off-again lower back pain every other week, to being virtually free of back pain! It has had a massive positive effect on my life and has allowed me to be much more active without the feeling that a seemingly normal, day-to-day movement may cause another flare-up to occur. I exercise not only to help prevent lower back issues, but to maintain all-around fitness in muscle groups I might not tend to use in my everyday life - hopefully preventing me from other surprise injuries! Goals for the rest of 2020: Apart from getting out alive, continuing to maintain my fitness while trying to make incremental progress. Oh, and riding my bike more!! . Were running Telehealth and seeing only urgent patients face-to-face during Stage 4 lockdown. Phone (03) 8683 9442, email [email protected]. *video filmed prior to Vic lockdown restrictions. . . . . #osteopath #osteopathy #osteo #clinicalpilates #clinicalexercise #exerciserehab #strengthtraining #musclestrength #strongbodies #sportsinjury #injuryrehab #exercise #healthcare #alliedhealth #osteotreatment #manualtherapy #manipulation #musculoskeletal #rathdownestreet #carltonnorth #backpain #neckpain #shoulderpain #sportsinjuries #osteoswholift #exerciseright

24.01.2022 Just an important update regarding allied health appointments during Stage 4 restrictions! All clients will require a specific referral letter from either their regular GP or specialist in order to attend face-to-face appointments at Complete Health as of 11:59pm TONIGHT. All clients who have appointments from tomorrow (Thursday) will need this referral. If you have a current care plan for Osteopathic services, you are allowed to attend the clinic.... We recommend changing non-urgent appointments to our already popular Zoom sessions if you are unable to attend the clinic. Thank you to all our wonderful clients for being so patient and cooperative in the current climate. We sincerely appreciate your loyalty to our business! Stay safe and well! The CHOP team x

23.01.2022 We are doing our best to keep our community safe and healthy. Just a reminder that we are still open and taking precautions with all our treatments, either hands on or clinical exercise/rehab. Stay safe from the CHOP team!

23.01.2022 HAPPY FATHER'S DAY! Love from the dads of CHOP and the entire CHOP team. #fathersday

23.01.2022 Wishing our lovely osteopath, JENA, a happy milestone birthday today!! Enjoy the day! #happybirthday

23.01.2022 CLIENT SPOTLIGHT. . ROD J. . Say hello to Rod! Rod was referred to @complete.health.osteo by his wife (who also attends our clinic) to help him keep on track with regular exercise. We are very impressed with his willingness to take on a challenge and try different things! Here is what Rod has to say about regularly staying active:... . My biggest achievement at CHOP is with balance which I particularly notice going up stairs especially when carrying our dog, Rusty, who is now 10kg. I also enjoy greater flexibility; noticeable when doing up my shoes or working in the garden. I exercise because it gives me pleasure and an enhanced feeling of wellbeing. Exercising also eases muscle aches from doing the occasional more challenging lifting. My goal for 2020 is to maintain the improvements I have attained and hopefully further loosen up in-spite of the advancing years and to keep enjoying the challenges the team throws up. . This could be you! We offer both Osteopathy treatments and Osteopath designed Clinical Exercise Programs here at @complete.health.osteo. We work closely with you to create a management plan appropriate for your goals and requirements! Book your FREE Full Body Assessment or an Osteopathic consultation to get you started.

19.01.2022 REVISED UPDATE FROM DHHS: We can only provide treatment and clinical exercise services to clients who are in 'acute' or 'severe' pain during stage 4 restrictions, without the need of a GP or specialist referral. Unfortunately, this means we may not treat clients who do not have the above symptoms. For clients who fall into this category, we recommend changing your appointment to a 'zoom' telehealth session instead. There are no restrictions on telehealth.... Please get in contact with reception if you have any queries. We thank everyone for their cooperation and understanding while we navigate this ever-changing landscape! x The CHOP team.

19.01.2022 STAFF SPOTLIGHT. DR. PHILLIP LE - OSTEOPATH. . 1. What is the best advice you've been given to date?... You are your biggest obstacle that the ability to achieve a goal is determined by your belief in yourself, your attitude and your commitment to that goal. . 2. What something you have wanted to try but haven't yet? Ive always wanted to try to become a morning person and jump out of bed before the birds sing. Unfortunately, I am forever finding myself rolling out of bed just in time to get ready for work, something tells me my commitment to this goal is lacking. . 3. What is your favourite exercise and why?! Pull ups, I love them because there are so many regression exercises to learn the pull up, and once the pull up is mastered, there are so many variations to make them even harder! They are a great compound exercise that works on multiple muscle groups at once, especially the muscles that are necessary to pull those hunched over shoulders back! . You will see Phil at the clinic, Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. . . . . #osteopath #osteopathy #osteo #clinicalpilates #clinicalexercise #exerciserehab #strengthtraining #musclestrength #strongbodies #sportsinjury #injuryrehab #exercise #healthcare #alliedhealth #osteotreatment #manualtherapy #manipulation #musculoskeletal #rathdownestreet #carltonnorth #backpain #neckpain #shoulderpain #sportsinjuries #osteoswholift #exerciseright See more

19.01.2022 PATIENT SPOTLIGHT. . Telina F. . It’s 2021! A new year, a new client spotlight! Meet Telina! Telina has been dedicated with her strength sessions here at CHOP for the past few months and is kicking goals left right and centre. This is her first time trying a floor press with the barbell and she is killing it at her 3rd set of 25kg! Here is what she has to say about participating in regular exercise:... . My biggest achievement: No more lower back or sciatic pain. After my first couple of sessions I noticed a huge difference in that area of my body and I had been struggling with it for years. That motivated me to keep going. I'm still correcting a couple of postural issues with my hip and shoulder, but I also exercise so that I can get my body stronger and continue to improve my quality of movement and balance. I feel my core is still something I need to work on, so my main goal is to continue building up the strength in that area to get my body to where it should be. . This could you be you!

Management of persistent pain is usually multi-disciplinary and can include medicinal treatment, manual therapy, exercise, and behavioural/psychological treatment.

11.01.2022 HOW TO WEAR A MASK 101. . Always make sure you wash and dry your hands before fitting your mask! If you are using a disposable surgical mask, make sure it is the right way around (usually blue side out) and the right way up (metal strip at top). If you have a small face, tie knots into the elastics so they form a smaller side (see video in comments). OTHERWISE, hold the mask by the elastic ear loops and place it over your face, then put the elastics around the back of your ...ears. Pull down the bottom of the mask around your mouth and chin. Then finally pinch the metal nose strip to seal off the mask. There should be minimal airflow escape when the mask is fitted well. Avoid touching the outside of the mask where possible. If you do touch it, make sure to clean your hands ASAP! Replace with a new one if it gets damp or soiled. When removing the mask, try to only touch the ear loops, and then make sure to wash your hands. . WE REMAIN OPEN AS AN ESSENTIAL SERVICE! All patients and staff at @complete.health.osteo must wear a mask to appointments, including clinical rehabilitation sessions. We are also taking everybodys temperature as they come into the building. Strict hygiene and cleaning procedures are still in place. Again, we request you stay home and get a COVID test if you are showing signs of illness. STAY HEALTHY & SAFE! See more

There is a huge body of evidence that supports the use of exercise therapy to help manage physical conditions such as osteoarthritis, chronic pain and osteoporosis, as well as positive effects on mental health i.e. depression, PTSD, etc. The recommendations of weekly exercise from Exercise Right Australia are: - Accumulate 150-300mins of moderate intensity AEROBIC exercise for the week. - Strength training should be performed at least twice weekly.... - Exercise on most, if not all, days of the week. - Any movement is better than none!

09.01.2022 Pain can be indicative of a physical injury but it can also be there without any physical damage! How strange! Pain is a response sent from your brain when it detects something that is harmful or potentially going to hurt you. It takes a lot of energy to send pain signals, so this is why we don’t feel pain with every little bump or knock. Do you ever notice bruises that appear out of nowhere and aren’t painful?! This is your brain telling you that it’s not worth the energy to... send pain to the area you knocked so you can concentrate on other things! So remember, pain is not always damaging.

09.01.2022 Why does my Osteo perform an assessment? An assessment provides us information about your condition. It’s sort of like a funnel. We start looking at the bigger picture first, and then we funnel down into specific areas depending on what we find.

06.01.2022 Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) plays an important role in stabilising the knee joint internally. Injury management can be either via conservative methods (via rehabilitation) or surgical intervention. Studies show that outcomes from surgical versus non-surgical care have similar results, indicating that outcomes can be person-dependent. If opting for surgical intervention, a period of pre-operative rehabilitation (prehab) can yield good recovery outcomes with regards to pai...n, function and quality of life.

03.01.2022 With stage 3 restrictions beginning at 11:59pm tonight in Victoria, we thought we would let all of our current and prospective clients know that our clinic continues to remain OPEN to provide essential medical services to our community. . We understand that it may be a confusing and stressful time for some. It is BUSINESS AS USUAL (in the current climate) but we would like to outline what we are continuing to do to ensure staff and client safety: - strict cleaning and hygiene... procedures remain in place. Please wash or sanitise your hands upon arrival and before leaving. - your temperature will be taken before your appointment. A client has generously donated funds towards the purchase of two thermometers (thank you!). If you measure a consistent high temperature after 2 attempts, unfortunately you will be asked to leave the clinic. - limit of 6 people in the Pilates studio including staff. According to legal guidelines, we are able to have 15 people in the studio, meaning that we are well within the social distancing limits. - we ask that, where possible, you do not bring any additional people with you to your appointment unless they also have a booking at the clinic. This is in an effort to keep the waiting room capacity to a minimum. - lastly, if you are exhibiting signs of illness (however mild), we ask that you do not attend the clinic for the safety of others. . If you have any queries or concerns, please get in touch with us for further information. We will get through this if we all do our part!

01.01.2022 Unfortunately, it is still not business as usual yet. The directive from the Department of Health & Human Services (DHHS) allows us to see patients face-to-face under the following criteria: 1. To prevent significant deterioration in functional independence which would result in escalation of care. 2. For assessment and diagnostic purposes for people who have had to delay care during Stage 4 restrictions, where further delay is likely to result in deterioration.... 3. To provide essential pre- or post-operative surgical care. In regards to our Clinical Exercise sessions in the clinic, only 1 on 1 sessions are permitted (no groups) and you must meet the above criteria. All other patients must remain on Telehealth Zoom. Please don't hesitate to call the clinic if you need further clarification about these restrictions. We hope everyone does their part so that we can return to normal as soon as possible :) Stay healthy & well! Complete Health.
