22.01.2022 As we age we need to protect our tissues - muscle, tendon, bone, etc. Too much loading has detrimental effects, as does too little loading. Finding that 'sweet spot' is the key to the longevity of our physical selves. http://www.premax.com.au//the-mature-age-athlete-prolongin

20.01.2022 With the Tour de France coming up, a little insight into the common injuries we see in cyclists with Physiotherapist Chris Mallac. If you're a cyclist this is for you! "Other than the obvious trauma related injuries sustained in falls such as dislocated shoulders, displaced AC joints (very common) and fractured bones, cyclists tend to suffer from a plethora of overuse based injuries due to the extreme volume of time spent on the saddle. The first factors to consider are the ...Continue reading

20.01.2022 Why do some people with degenerative changes hurt, while others don’t? I hope this can make sense of things. Let's consider degenerative changes like grey hair ...and wrinkles on the inside. They are a normal part of ageing! A better term is probably age-related tissue changes as they are commonly found on imaging among asymptomatic individuals. This graphic is a great example of that. So how do we explain why some people with degenerative tissue changes hurt, and others don’t? Louis Gifford wrote about this in his book Aches and pains: "Feeling low, coping poorly or being under stress, may be background mental states that also prime the central hypersensitivity circuitry. Hence spontaneous onset of physical symptoms due to the unmasking of normally muted nociceptive activity or circuitry. Further, psychological factors may be important in triggering pain states or making them more likely. They are also likely to amplify pain above ‘usual’ levels should the individual sustain some form of strain or injury. That there may not have been an obvious physical incident can be irrelevant if we consider that as most of us age we harbour more and more physical ‘abnormalities and imperfections’ that are silently signalling their status to the CNS. I think this is one of the major reasons why degenerative changes can be present for a great many years without any symptom manifestation." Many factors modulate pain. Do we need to change the structure to get out of pain? No! Let's close with more of Gifford’s words: "Weak and deconditioned tissues in a vulnerable organism are likely to keep the sensitivity dimmer switch on a high setting, get them fitter and the switch can turn it all down. Big point here, it’s not necessarily the tissues getting fitter that do the trick it’s the context in which the tissues get fitter that is the key. How the individual patient interprets it all can massively help or massively mess it all up!"

10.01.2022 Do you use Kinesio Tape on a regular basis? A recent systematic review by researchers in Brazil and Australia has concluded that current evidence does not support the use of Kinesio taping in clinical practice for the treatment of shoulder pain, chronic low back pain, neck, or plantar fascia pain. This doesn't mean that the tape does not have a role in certain conditions but it does give clinicians more insight to when it may not be a useful intervention. http://www.journalofphysiotherapy.com//S1836-9553/abstract

01.01.2022 Men's Health Week: June 15th-21st 2015 A boy born in Australia in 2010 has a life expectancy of 78.0 years while a baby girl born at the same time could expect to live to 82.3 years old. Boys suffer more illness, more accidents and die earlier than their female counterparts. Men take their own lives at four times the rate of women (five men a day). Accidents, cancer and heart disease all account for the majority of male deaths. http://www.menshealthweek.org.au//f/2015-Mens-Health-Week-
