19.01.2022 The use of imaging in lower back pain has been a source of much discussion in recent years. In our most recent blog post we discuss when imaging may help, and when it may not be needed. Check it out at: https://www.ffphysio.com/spinal-physiotherapy/imaging/

19.01.2022 Lower back pain is one of the most common reasons for people to present to a Physiotherapy Clinic. Lower back pain is often poorly understood and impacted by incorrect or incomplete information. One of the most common inaccurate beliefs is that lumbar disc injuries dont heal. Patients will often attribute ongoing pain to this belief, but as the articles below discuss, spontaneous recovery is in fact common. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31372127/... https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25009200/ See more

02.01.2022 With many of us returning to the gym following lockdown many will lower weights, but be tempted to increase volume. However as this graphic from Strength and Conditioning Research shows lower load, higher volume work can result in greater fatigue and slower recovery. The take home message is that we need to control total volume of work, not just load.
