19.01.2022 Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome (MTSS) (Shin Splints) Medial tibial stress syndrome is the most common form of exercise-induced leg pain. It represents a bone stress reaction of the tibia, the major weightbearing bone of the leg. It often results from a rapid increase in level of weight bearing exercise. The pain from MTSS is usually expressed as a dull ache following exercise that may last hours to days, and may even persist during normal activities of daily living.

16.01.2022 Forefoot overload is a broad term used to define a group of pathologies of similar origin. Individually the conditions may include: Bone stress- where bone is broken down and is at risk of stress response/ stress fracture. This normally occurs at the head of the metatarsal bone. Inter metatarsal pathology- including neuromatoma (pathological thickening of the nerve sheath) and bursitis. Clinically these two problems are difficult to distinguish as bursitis may apply pressure to the nerve resulting in symptoms, (shooting pain, burning, numbness and a full feeling) similar to a neuroma.

11.01.2022 This young chippy came to see us earlier in the year complaining of lower back and mid thoracic pain. It was so bad at times he had to stop playing footy. After... a complete assessment a rehab program was designed using functional strength exercises in the gym to replicate his work environment as well as a comprehensive generalised strength and conditioning program using a combination of different lifts. He came in today after a particularly hard session and wanted some hands on therapy to ease his soreness. After some spinal manips and deep tissue work we used some needles to help ease his DOMs. #rehab #physio #lifting #weighttraining #physiogeelong #pain #DOMs #gettingbetter See more

10.01.2022 One of our podiatrists Lizzy all frocked up for the #melbournecup. Probably not podiatry appropriate shoes

10.01.2022 Tibialis Posterior Dysfunction (TPD) Posterior tibial tendon dysfunction is the most common cause of adult acquired flatfoot. Patients will complain of medial foot pain, weakness, and a slowly progressive foot deformity. A too many toes sign may be present and patients will be unable to perform a single heel raise test. The optimal treatment may change based on the progression of deformity and stage of disease. [ 285 more words ] https://performancepodiatry.wordpress.com//adult-acquired/

05.01.2022 Meet our AWESOME Volunteer and Stroke Survivor, Ryan Ogden.. Ryan Ogden has been a physiotherapist in the Geelong region for more than 10 years. His special int...erest has been using exercise as a means to rehabilitate people from a broad range of injuries, including low back pain and post surgical, to sporting and work place injuries. Living in Torquay, Ryan was a mad keen surfer, fisherman and mountain biker. As an extremely fit and healthy 31 year old, it was a shock when Ryan suffered 2 major strokes requiring life saving surgery in 2012. After a year of grueling rehabilitation and learning how to do most things again (such as walking), it was demoralising when Ryan suffered a third stroke, by far the worst of the three. After more aggressive surgery and years of tedious rehab, amazingly Ryan is now back working as a physiotherapist. Although he has had to modify this treatment techniques, he says he is a more effective therapist these days. Recently Ryan completed studies in Applied Neuroscience and Brain Health. Combining this knowledge with his physiotherapy skills and own personal stroke experience, Ryan finds himself in a very special situation to help people. He is able to treat, rehabilitate and motivate people recovering from stroke and other neurological conditions. Ryan recently began volunteering at the Barwon Stroke Support Centre; prescribing stroke survivors with rehabilitation programmes. Ryan also works at East Geelong Medical Centre 3 days a week and HealthE Allied Services 1 day a week. Ryan is especially energised to assist people who have lost motivation in their rehab or who'd like their rehab plans revised or revamped. Welcome to the Barwon Centre Volunteer Team, Ryan! We're so glad to have you a part of it!
