25.01.2022 Wahooo! What have you got planned for these lovely sunny days??

24.01.2022 We have an exciting announcement for Hills Physiotherapy, but particulary for our Emerald clinic... WE'RE MOVING! We've taken on two shops in the new development on 333 Belgrave-Gembrook Road, and we've started the process of fitting out the premier Allied Health facility in the Dandenongs! We'll miss our federation cottage dearly, but over the years we've outgrown it and it's time to move into a larger space. ... Thank you to Trevor and the team at Paramount Projects, and Lana and Daniel of Falcone Property Management for helping us make this happen, and answering all.the.questions! We'll keep everyone updated with progress and move in dates. We're looking forward to an exciting few weeks! #physiotherapy #physio #physicaltherapy #melbourne #fitness #rehab #health #physiotherapist #rehabilitation #emeraldvictoria #massage #pilates #myotherapy #backpain #easterndandenongranges #pain #exercise #mobility #wellness #gym #repost #osteopathy #sport #recovery #medicine #physicaltherapist #painrelief #exphys #remediamassage

23.01.2022 BJ is all over it! We're hoping to open our new clinic very soon. Just waiting on the certificate of occupancy and we're a go! Watch this space, we'll be singing it from the rooftops!

23.01.2022 What a night?! We hope all of our patients and families are ok! Both Emerald and Rowville have power and we have physios working today if you need emergency treatment. ... A reminder that if you are an emergency services worker we always offer you 20% off your treatments, and if you've injured yourself last night and we can keep you out of the emergency department please give us a call to discuss. 1300 944 557 Stay safe.

21.01.2022 It's #nationalstrokeweek Did you know that in Australia every 9 minutes a person suffers from a stroke? You need to this F.A.S.T. because time is critical and stroke is ALWAYS a medical emergency. Check out Ben's latest blog post about stroke, and see the attached video for more information, and learn how to act F.A.S.T. and save a life. ... Ben's blog here: https://hillsphysiotherapy.com.au/stroke/ Stroke Foundation Almost 19,000 strokes will be experienced by NSW residents this year and there are almost 160,000 stroke survivors living in the NSW community. The first step in ensuring better outcomes from stroke is getting to hospital quickly, and that means recognising the F.A.S.T. signs and calling triple zero (000) straight away. https://vimeo.com/423020759

21.01.2022 Health care has now changed from being "Heavily Restricted" to "Restricted". This means we still need to ensure that the care we're providing is essential, however this has now relaxed to allow Chronic Pain management to be a reason for care. Unfortunately this still means Myotherapists and Remedial Massage therapists are unable to treat at this stage, we'll advise when we have a date for these services. Despite community transmissions being lower it is still our job to redu...ce movement in the community, and so please only book in if your condition is preventing you from functioning or will result in escalated care (hospital / specialist etc). . . . . . #stroke #physio #physiomelbourne #mupss #melbourneuniphysio #latrobephysio #physiotherapy #physiotherapymelbourne #hillsphysiotherapy #hillsphysio #clinicalexercise #clinicalpilates #massage #remedialmassage #osteopathy #recovery #clinicalrehab #rehab #sportsphysio #backpain #pain #painscience #sprain #lowerback #surgery #acl #tmj #headache #neckpain #soreback See more

21.01.2022 As per State Government regulations, for a person to attend Face-to-Face Allied Health consultations from midnight Wednesday 5th of August you will require a referral from a GP. If you already have a referral under third-party scheme such as TAC / DVA/ NDIS / WorkCover/ Medicare then as long as your treatment is essential you can attend. Anyone else legitimately requiring treatment can attend, once you've gained a referral from your doctor (via Telehealth). If you already h...ave an appointment for Thursday or Friday you'll be contacted regarding this, with the option to rebook if you need time or don't consider your treatment essential. We thank you for your patience while we slow the spread of this pandemic.

21.01.2022 Check out this super cool page for you to identify exposure locations, and it even includes what you're supposed to do if you've been to one. https://covid19nearme.com.au/state/vic Please also see the a communication from us- we know this may vary from what the DHHS has told you if you have travelled to NSW, but we are taking no chances! We'll regroup after the 14th with further communication about our own company policy. We don't want to be on that map thanks, and know you'...ll all understand! Ben and Ness Kewish

19.01.2022 In order to streamline our essential services we're closing the Knoxfield clinic for the duration of Stage 4 restrictions. Myotherapy and Remedial Massage services have ceased at this stage so that we're not moving too many people through our doors. We are available at our Rowville and Emerald clinics for essential physiotherapy treatments. Telehealth appointments are encouraged. ... . . . . . . #physiotherapy #physio #physicaltherapy #melbourne #fitness #rehab #health #physiotherapist #rehabilitation #caribbeanpark #massage #pilates #myotherapy #backpain #fisioterapeuta #pain #exercise #mobility #wellness #gym #repost #osteopathy #sport #recovery #medicine #physicaltherapist #painrelief #osteopatia #remediamassage See more

19.01.2022 Ben Kewish is taking Ben Jones Pilates class tomorrow morning, while the new Groom celebrates his wedding and honeymoon. If you're in for some Saturday morning moderate to advanced Pilates, there are two spots left. https://hillsphysiotherapy.appointment.mobi/bookinggateway

16.01.2022 In Flanders’ fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky... The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders’ fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe; To you from failing hands, we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders’ fields. By Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae #WeRememberThem www.rslvic.com.au/commemoration/remembrance-day www.awm.gov.au/commemoration/WeRememberThem

15.01.2022 Getting there Victoria! We'll be working through any changes today (if any!) from yesterdays announcement. Watch this space for further information. ... Also a quick reminder that face shields worn ALONE are not acceptable at any of our clinics. If you want to wear one with a properly fitted face mask (that covers your NOSE and mouth!) that is fine. . . . . #stroke #physio #physiomelbourne #mupss #melbourneuniphysio #latrobephysio #physiotherapy #physiotherapymelbourne #hillsphysiotherapy #hillsphysio #clinicalexercise #clinicalpilates #massage #remedialmassage #osteopathy #recovery #clinicalrehab #rehab #sportsphysio #backpain #pain #painscience #sprain #lowerback #surgery #acl #tmj #headache #neckpain #soreback

15.01.2022 What an awesome study in JAMA (credit to Adam Meakins for the article find). We know walking is good for us, but how good? This study tracked nearly 5000 US adults for 3 years, and found that people walking avg 2000 steps a day were nearly 450% more likely to die (mortality 22/1000 adults compared with 5/1000) than those walking avg 12000 steps per day. Even during Stage 4 restrictions you can get your 12000 steps! Put your sneakers on.

14.01.2022 It's happening, but we just need a little minute! xx . .... . . . #stroke #physio #physiomelbourne #mupss #melbourneuniphysio #latrobephysio #physiotherapy #physiotherapymelbourne #hillsphysiotherapy #hillsphysio #clinicalexercise #clinicalpilates #massage #remedialmassage #clinicalrehab #rehab #sportsphysio #backpain #pain #painscience #sprain #lowerback #surgery #acl #tmj #headache #neckpain #soreback

13.01.2022 Fabric masks back in stock at Rowville and on our line shop here: https://hillsphysiotherapy.org/collections/fabric-face-masks $10 each, triple layered.

13.01.2022 Historical buildings are gorgeous, but they need a bit of love every once in the while. We apologise for any inconvenience with emergency re-bookings, but there's going to be a few trades in over the next few days. We'll be servicing emergency face to face consults out of Knoxfield for the time being.... As always, if you're not sure whether you're allowed to see a physio right now it's best to call us on 1300 9 HILLS (1300 944 557), and we'll chat about the next best steps for you.

13.01.2022 We still have to make sure that we adhere to spacing limits in each area of our clinic. Please wait in your car until your exact appointment time, or call us on 1300 9HILLS (1300 944 557) to let us know that you'd like a call to come in when your therapist is ready. Thank you!

12.01.2022 What constitutes essential treatment? The government has issued that 'services that prevent a significant change/deterioration in function ... necessitating escalation of care (e.g. a requirement for specialist ... an increase in care needs ... avoiding a hospital admission or emergency department presentation," are permitted to be treated in a private practice setting during Stage 4 Restrictions. This means if you just have a sore back, a headache, a minor strain, a sore kn...ee, or a sore shoulder you don't need to see a Physiotherapist right now, we'll see you in 6 weeks. If you have broken a bone, had surgery recently, had a significant muscle tear, or injured your back or neck in such a way that it is preventing you from functioning, then your treatment is essential, and you should book in to see us. . . . . . . #painmanagement #chronicpain #pain #painrelief #health #wellness #cannabis #painfree #physicaltherapy #cbdlife #backpain #yoga #fitness #physiotherapy #anxiety #healing #therapy #holistic #alternativemedicine #arthritis #healthcare #holistichealth #jointpain #chronicillness #inflammation #bhfyp #physiotherapy #lorimermoseley #explainpain

11.01.2022 Yes, it's true! We have a few rules however, since this will increase the volume in our clinics: Please wait in your car until it's time for your treatment. No waiting room hangs please! ... You must have a properly fitted face mask on for your treatment. don't play with us on this one, it's the rules. We have them for sale if you've forgotten. We have to wear full PPE to treat you so discomfort is not an excuse! Please please please call to rebook your appointment if you can't come. Spaces are tight and "no shows" are just plain rude, and you'll likely cop a fine from us. If you OR ANYONE IN YOUR HOME is unwell or awaiting COVID test results you MUST cancel your appointment. We're still in a pandemic!

03.01.2022 Just a reminder that our Knoxfield location remains closed for the time being. We're constantly assessing the best way to move forward, and it looks likely that this clinic will stay closed until the end of October unless there are dramatic changes to to the Victorian Roadmap to a COVID-19 "normal". Our Knoxfiled clinic houses most of our Myotherapists who are not allowed to practice face to face under the current (and likely next) phase of restrictions. Our physios have be...en moved over to our Rowville location at Wellington Village, and to our Emerald clinics. Emergency physiotherapy services can be accessed from these locations until this passes.

03.01.2022 What a lovely sunny start to the day! Just a quick one- our online booking system is OFF for the moment so that we can work through the best way of determining the necessity of your appointment. Appointments are with physio only at this stage and for emergencies (for example: If you can't get in to see a physio then your only other option is an emergency department at a hospital, you're that injured...) and for those with existing situations that need care. ... In order to determine whether you're situation is severe enough to move around the community, we simply need to have a quick chat to book you in. if you have a pre booked appointment and you can survive without it, or can do a tele-health consult please give us a bell to chat through this as well. Help us keep our communities safe. Any questions call 1300 9 HILLS (1300 944 557)

02.01.2022 Physiotherapy has never been more necessary than during this crazy time, where people are experiencing more pain, sensitivity and headaches than ever. At the same time, as leaders in the health care space, it is our responsibility to educate people about what constitutes "necessary care" - doing our bit to reduce community movement and transmissions of COVID19. Thanks to the Hills Physiotherapy team for navigating through this time with tolerance and good spirits, always ther...e for your patients despite risk to yourselves and your family.

02.01.2022 State Government advice yesterday reported that Stage 4 restrictions defined Allied Health (AHPRA registered professionals) as necessary BUT required a GP referral...This ran counter to 44 years of Physiotherapists in Australia being Primary contact practitioners (not requiring GP referral). In practice this would mean thousands of unnecessary GP visits for people who are well, but in pain, exposing themselves to people who are sick. This has been overturned overnight, you n...o longer require a GP referral to see a physio. However, you DO need to consider if the condition you're seeing the physio for necessarily requires face-to-face treatment, or whether we can assess, advise and manage rehabilitation via Telehealth. . . . . . . #physiotherapy #physio #physicaltherapy #melbourne #fitness #rehab #health #physiotherapist #rehabilitation #caribbeanpark #massage #pilates #myotherapy #backpain #fisioterapeuta #pain #exercise #mobility #wellness #gym #repost #osteopathy #sport #recovery #medicine #physicaltherapist #painrelief #osteopatia #remediamassage See more
