19.01.2022 DIAGNOSTIC IMAGING = OVERRATED People tend to Injure themselves then automatically assume they need to get an MRI, CT scan or ultrasound.....BULLSHIIIIIT ... You may aswell get your money and throw it away if you do this straight away. It doesn't accelerate your recovery at all Instead, go see a physiotherapist who will assess, diagnose and treat the injury and will more than likely detect what the scan will say anyways! If the injury doesn't improve, then yes get the scan done. If you do get better, great because you won't need a scan at all as it won't change your treatment or outcome Be smart with your body and your wallet the next time you injure yourself #physiotherapy #health #physicaltherapy #physio #fitness #wellbeing #lifestyle

14.01.2022 STOP GOING TO THE GP AS FIRST POINT OF CONTACT FOR MUSCULOSKLETAL INJURIES Even your GP will recommend for you to come see a physio first. There is an increasingly higher rate of people going to their local doctor regarding their musculoskeletal injuries as their first point of contact. There are a few issues with this and reasons why you should see a physio first..... 1. GP's are very busy people with much more important health conditions to keep up to date with. Therefore it is hard for them to stay up to date with the latest evidence regarding your injury, hence not being able to provide you with the best treatment options for YOUR injury. 2. Due to the fact that they are very busy, they do not have the time to do a full assessment to determine what your injury is. This results in them sending you for a scan that you most likely do not need! 3. They are very quick to send you off to a specialist/surgeon when you most certainly do not need to be referred to one. Specialists are not cheap and not easy to get an appointment with. Why leave your injury hanging around for months before you get it checked out properly? We can avoid unnecessary surgeries which will also keep the money in your pocket! Hopefully this will help you to make the right decision next time you get an injury, regardless of how small or big the injury is, that the physio should be your first point of contact for a thorough assessment and treatment. #physio #physiotherapy #physicaltherapy #exercise #rehab #injury #health #surgery #fitness #lifestyle

12.01.2022 ADHESIVE CAPSULITIS Commonly known as "Frozen Shoulder" *DID YOU KNOW*... Once adhesive capsulitis has set in, it can take up to 3 years to regain full movement again, therefore it is very important to seek treatment it in the early stages. Everyone has heard of the term frozen shoulder, but what is it exactly? Adhesive capsulitis is a condition in which the shoulder becomes very painful and stiff, resulting in loss of function and movement. The exact cause of frozen shoulder is still unknown, however, females over the age of 40 have an increased chance of developing the condition. A frozen shoulder can also develop post shoulder injury/surgery due to excessive immobilisation. *REMEMBER... MOVEMENT IS KEY* How do you know if you have or are developing a "FROZEN SHOULDER"? If you find that your shoulder has become very stiff and painful, causing you to stop doing the activities you enjoy.. or don't enjoy doing (like hanging out the washing ), then make an appointment to get yourself checked out. After all, you wouldn't want your shoulder to be out of action for a while. Look after your body, you can't put a price on health. #physio #physicaltherapy #health #exercise #rehab #rehabilitation #anatomy #pain #shoulder #frozenshoulder #adhesivecapsulitis

06.01.2022 SPINAL DISC PROBLEMS DONT FREAK OUT! This diagnosis is extremely common in the general population. As a matter of fact, a lot of us probably have a disc problem one way or the other and we don't even know!... All these scans need to say something in their reports and a lot of the time people will say "I have a disc problem". They don't even don't even know they do half the time because they're doing everything normal from day to day! Disc injuries of course can cause pain and discomfort but don't be discouraged by it. They can be managed through correct physiotherapy and exercise RELAX PEOPLE ITS NOT THE END OF THE WORLD #physiotherapy #health #physicaltherapy #physio #spine #fitness #exercise

04.01.2022 DRY NEEDLING Don't be a wimp and be scared of a little needle! You ain't fragile! ... Dry needling is an effective and efficient technique for the treatment of muscular pain and myofascial dysfunction. In simple terms, the treatment involves needling of a muscle's trigger points. Dry needling works by increasing blood supply to the tissue in much the same way as massage. The needle is much finer and more accurate than a thumb so it can be a very precise and powerful technique. #physio #physicaltherapy #physiotherapy #dryneedling #acupuncture #health #rehab

03.01.2022 INJURIES Have you sustained an injury that you haven't been able to shake off? ... Has your doctor told you that surgery might be an option? When people sustain a serious injury, the thought of surgery pops into their head and they think that it will magically make them better. After you have surgery, there is a long rehab process that goes along with it. Not all injuries require surgery, and surgery should be avoided and only used as a last resort. Physiotherapy rehab alone can get you back to where you need to be. Why put yourself through the stress of surgery only to end up doing the rehab anyway? Book yourself in for a full assessment and treatment of your injury prior to seeing your doctor or a specialist. #physiotherapy #physicaltherapy #physio #injury #surgery #health #exercise #rehab
