25.01.2022 Apologies to anyone who received an indecipherable or group of messages yesterday from LPP. Our management software had some issues sending out texts to our clients from the month of March. We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused. Be well, LPP
24.01.2022 Good morning, We are living in strange and difficult times. Ive just yesterday made the decision to self isolate and not go into the practice for 2/52. This was not an easy choice for me but after much consultation with family, friends and medical colleagues I thought it was the response to this virus I needed to take. When Im working I am close to my patients and while LPP has taken every step to safeguard both staff and clients through all our hygiene measures, I have to ...acknowledge that my age and regular patient contact may put me and subsequently my family at risk. Im feeling fine but I couldnt bear the thought of bringing this virus home to my family. In recent days we have all seen how Australians have reacted to this virus, from panick buying to shell be right mateand I think its appropriate we take it more seriously. I also acknowledge that people still wish to carry on their lives as normal and medical experts do state that due to WAs isolation, our chances of contracting the disease are low. So, a couple of messages regarding Lowther Physiotherapy and Podiatry. First, its still open for business. People need hands on therapy so the practice will be manned by Rob Nichols, a highly qualified and skilled physio who is happy to continue working with all our safeguards in place. Second, my Physio son Harry has set up a telehealth video consultation app that people can download and have a face to face session with me where we can discuss their problem, I can then send a set of exercises and advice regarding the management of the injury and hopefully help to keep you mobile. All the patients need to do is ring Bron on 93222210, ask for a Telehealth consultation, she will book it in and I will contact you re downloading the app. This is new to me, Ive practiced it and its pretty cool but its still early days so Im learning on the job. The message is the same for all our clients, look after yourselves and well get through this together. Cheers Ian

20.01.2022 Well here I am sitting up in my hospital bed following my total knee joint replacement. Starting to feel stronger and moving the knee quite well. It still hurts but its more the instability that makes you really concentrate. After all these years helping people to manage their knees and hips and shoulders post op Im now the patient. Really strange but the staff here at Hollywood have been wonderful in looking after me. Now I just need to concentrate on bearing weight through the leg just like I tell all my patients. Cheers

15.01.2022 Dear all, Its been a month since my total knee replacement and its slow and steady. It certainly tells you if you do too much but my advice for all future candidates for this operation is consult with someone who has experienced it. Some will have more uplifting stories than others but ultimately its a question of being patient and accepting of your situation. Having treated so many people who have undergone the procedure, I now have a totally different understanding of t...he difficulties faced and more importantly how to assist people on their road to recovery. Its a heck of a road. More updates soon. Regards Ian See more

Taking a look into the modern era of sport intensity and associated injury / management. As a former Fremantle Dockers sports physiotherapist, any insight and/or lessons from the past certainly couldnt hurt. Today Tonight
15.01.2022 Everyones back on deck at Lowther Physio & Podiatry now. Robs had a fabulous family skiing holiday in Japan and Linda and family were nearly blown away and drowned out whilst camping at Augusta two weeks ago with the wild weather down there. Pilates classes are re-commencing but currently only at 12.30-1.30 timeslots on Mondays Wednesdays and Thursdays. Wishing all our fabulous Lowther patients a terrific New Year moving forward. Cheers Bron
12.01.2022 Dear All, 9 weeks post total knee replacement and I thought Id let people know that Im back to work full time. Whilst still recovering my full strength in the knee, the joint is doing really well. I have much greater respect for all joint replacement patients now and in some ways feel guilty about perhaps showing less empathy to my patients before my own experience.... I would urge all people contemplating joint replacement to seek the advice of a physiotherapist experienced in the area to provide them with the best possible preparation for their up coming surgery. Im happy to help anyone who may be in this position. Cheers, Ian

10.01.2022 Dear all, After 6 weeks post total knee replacement Im going back to work a few hours a day. Thank goodness. Im sorry its taken so long but these ops are a lot more impacting on you than I thought. Once I know how the joint likes me standing on it for 2 or 3 hours or so, I can plan my full return a little better. I guess from all of this, the greatest thing to come of it is the knowledge I now have on the procedure pre and post op.... Theres so much I can pass on and Im looking forward to doing just that. Regards Ian See more

09.01.2022 Linda has recently attended a course Screening and Conditioning for Dancers. Shes got lots of fresh ideas for developing strength and control around the hip, knee, foot and of course the core! Come in with your dance questions. Often useful for non-dancers too!!
08.01.2022 Hi everyone, I just thought Id post a little news story. I just walked the cape to cape down south. Now admittedly I had to miss a couple of days because of my arthritic knee (damn thing) but it was still an amazing adventure and one I thoroughly recommend. Beautiful coastline and the fellow trekkers were outstanding as they walked for the Lifechanger Foundation to raise funds for Aust. Youth. Cheers
07.01.2022 Hi everyone, I havent written anything for a while so I thought its appropriate that I do now. Ive just returned from Tasmania. I, along with 10 others did the overland trek. The trek is demanding both physically and mentally. I trained for it but had no real idea what I was getting myself in for. The trek was done as a fundraiser for a wonderful charity called Lifechanger and you can read all about Lifechanger on their website. The biggest issue was they had the coldest ...weather fronts go through the region in years and it was freezing. I got through it ok but developed a chest cold which got worse so Ive had to take a couple of days extra off work. To all my patients, my apologies and Im hoping to be back at work very soon. Best regards Ian See more

05.01.2022 Dear all, Just to let you know LPP is open on Christmas Eve. We hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and exciting new year. Regards Ian, Bron, Rob, Linda, Millie, Kate, Issy
05.01.2022 Yay! I have finally received my Clinical Pilates Certification. Although I completed all the levels back in 2002/03, DMA Melbourne has evolved over the years and recently added a Certification process. The application of this type of exercise has always been individualised and treatment based, but recent research has enabled Physiotherapists to modify and be more specific when choosing appropriate exercises. While general exercise is of course beneficial, research has shown that individual programs can provide a much greater change in function and movement control. Book a one on one session to find out what its all about. Still rebatable through Private Health Funds as it is considered part of Physiotherapy treatment.
05.01.2022 Happy new year everyone. Its tough but back to work and looking forward to next Christmas. Ian, Bron, Rob, Linda, Kate, Millie and Issy.
