15.01.2022 Happy Women’s Health Week! This is the week to put yourself and your health first. Book that health check you’ve been putting off. Take some time out of your busy week to do something for you! I don’t have time is not a good enough excuse.... You can’t take care of everyone else if you neglect yourself. Yes ladies I’m talking to each and every one of you #physio #womenshealth #womenshealthweek2020 #pelvicfloor

11.01.2022 What is a pelvic health physio? Do you think of pelvic floor, continence, pregnancy, pelvic pain? Do you think it’s just for women? I’ve been thinking a lot about this question and how to explain it to patients.... We certainly can help with pelvic floor concerns, pain, continence and pregnancy related conditions. But we also look at you as a whole person and how your pelvis and pelvic floor connects to the rest of your body. We look at how your symptoms impact on your life and work with you to help manage them. We definitely treat men as well as women because after all they have a pelvic floor too (even if they don’t know). Pelvic floor conditions are often more complex than just the structural issue. #physio #pelvichealthphysio #pelvicfloor #holistichealth

02.01.2022 Ready to get back to the gym post-iso? Be sure to follow these tips from physios around Australia to make your return without injury as smooth as possible. Wa...rm-up and cool-down properly using stretching, foam-rolling and icing techniques to aid in your recovery. Drop your pre-iso weight by 20-30% and gradually increase the weight over four-eight weeks depending on your age and fitness level. Get your form checked by a professional and ensure you are controlled and slow in your repetitions. Don't go too hard, too early! Build up to your pre-iso levels as your muscles and tendons will have likely shrunk, making you more susceptible to injury. Check in with your local physio to avoid injury and manage your return to full capacity. For more recommendations from APA Sports and Exercise Physiotherapist Julie Campbell, MACP, and Brooke Patterson, APAM, on returning to the gym, head to https://ab.co/2XPA3Z6 #StayFitSaturday #gym #choosephysio #weekendworkout

01.01.2022 The Knack An important component of stress urinary incontinence management. I think of it as functional pelvic floor training. The knack refers to active contraction of the pelvic floor muscles prior to activities which cause incontinence such as coughing, sneezing and jumping. Leaking often can occur with these activities as the pelvic floor may not be strong or coordinated enough to counter the sharp, sudden increase in intra-abdominal pressure.... Best to check with a pelvic health physio if you’re experiencing any of these symptoms. #physio #pelvicfloor #theknack #womenshealth #pelvichealthphysio #stressincontinence
