19.01.2022 Patient: "I broke my arm in 2 places" Physio: "Stop going to those places!"

19.01.2022 These are just a few of the reasons we have seen people for low back complaints in the last week. Remember back pain presents in different ways through all ages. Pain, stiffness and limitation does not have to be something you put up with.

19.01.2022 Do you get a stiff and achey back? Do you spend large periods of your day seated? Find that massages just aren't enough sometimes? Here are 5 pieces of advice to help with your back health!

17.01.2022 Thank you so much Deb for choosing Physique to help! The bar for Christmas presents has been set at an entirely new level! We love you lots and appreciate your kindness so much, Deb!

17.01.2022 This is WILD! Beliefs > thoughts > actions > 7.5 year difference Its a correlation, not a causation... but the study highlights the impact that beliefs have on your mortality!

16.01.2022 Now this should get your attention! Believe it or not this is something to be thinking about. These tips are recommended by the Continence Foundation of Australia for a happy bowel and pelvic floor: - Listen to your body: if you feel the need to poo, visit the loo. ... - Make sure you relax and take the time to completely empty your bladder or bowel. - Get into the correct seating position (check out the picture below). - Avoid long periods sitting on the toilet ... that's right, leave behind the phones and newspapers.

15.01.2022 We are ALWAYS asked about our patient's posture and how it could be better. The truth is...... there's not one perfect posture. Humans are designed for movement, so the perfect posture is actually a combination of many movements, positions and postures. The important part is not to stay static for too long! Try this - sit up straight, shoulders back, chin tucked in for 5 minutes. I guarantee it will be painful. ANY positoin if held foe long enough will be painful.

15.01.2022 There are many lesser-known symptoms of Parkinson's Disease and they are worth knowing if yourself or a family member has PD. They include: - balance problems - loss of sense of smell -nerve pain ... -incontinence -constipation -dizziness, blurred vision or fainting when moving from a -sitting or lying position to a standing one -swallowing difficulties -insomnia -And very high rates of depression and anxiety But there is help available to you with each of these. Be sure to ask your physio at Physique or GP so they can best guide you to get the help that you need.

14.01.2022 If you headaches or migraines and haven't followed Physique Physiotherapy on Facebook and Instagram... Now is your chance!

13.01.2022 Vertigo is awful! If you have ever had an episode, you know that you wouldn't wish it on anyone! How do you fix BPPV? BPPV is caused by dislodged crystals in the inner-ear...... We can move those crystals UNINVASIVELY to where they can't cause any more grief. Result? Get back to living your life without vertigo! The catch? It is very difficult to diagnose and treat correctly... But thankfully we have two specially trained and experienced Physios able to fix BPPV! Call today on 5545 1133 to fix your vertigo!

13.01.2022 Get pains when you first wake up or get woken through the night? Does this pain get better when you start to move? Nerves need about 25% of your blood supply otherwise they can cause pain. When you sleep, your blood pressure drops and this limits blood supply to nerves and often causes pain. The key to getting rid of this pain and improving your sleep is though hands on therapy and the correct exercises!

12.01.2022 MYTHBUSTING OSTEOARTHRITIS Check out the most common misconceptions when it comes to osteoarthritis!

12.01.2022 Get anxious, flustered in your thoughts, lose track of your tasks and feel the stress get to you? This controlled deep breathing technique alters your nervous system so that you move from a wound up flight/fight physiological state to a relaxed and calmed physiological state. This will shift your nervous system to bias the parasympathetic over the sympathetic side of the nervous system.

12.01.2022 Ever wondered what osteoarthritis actually is? Osteoarthritis (OA) is the breakdown of articular cartilage. Articular cartilage lines joints and provides a smooth surface for bones to move over each other. As cartilage ages it is not as responsive to changes in load and it may breakdown faster than it is building back up. This leads to an uneven joint surface, further cartilage wear and eventually the formation of bone spurs. Hmm, that sounds bad. So what can help? ... Given the prevalence of OA it is not surprising that a huge number of research studies have looked into what can help. Current medical guidelines recommend a combination of physio and GP management as the first step. This is great news! Physio is recommended as a 1st step in managing OA. This is our bread and butter, we are able to apply a huge range of treatment techniques to address individual symptoms and help improve quality of life!

08.01.2022 FOUR FACTS ABOUT JESS .... as told by her fiancé 1. Jess LOOVVEESS puppies - you mightve seen her plight to convince her dastardly partner to buy her one. 2. Jess played hockey until a couple of years ago - handy central player for the Roosters! 3. Jess ALL TIME favourite food is.... Fish and Chips (how boring).... 4. Jess career plan at school was to be a dolphin trainer - somewhere along the way this dream morphed into physiotherapy. Thank goodness! See more

06.01.2022 What do flossing, a glider and nerves all have in common? ...... Not sure? Fair enough, kind of a strange question. Nerves are built to move, stretch, extend, shorten, twist, turn and bend. We at Physique like to use this to our advantage and give our patients nerve mobility exercises. We call these exercises FLOSSING or GLIDERS. ... Flossing your nerves improves blood flow, mobility along the neural bed, nerve extensibility and often pain! Would you like to know more about flossing or gliders? Feel free to ask any of our wonderfyl physiotherapists, they're experts in this field and would be happy to help. Otherwise, stay tuned! We will be posting some examples over the coming weeks.

The influence is a two way street so not only will your body and diet effect your mind, but you can also alter your physiology with your thoughts.

04.01.2022 Highly anticipated Justice for Jess Update ..... It is important to note Hayden did not crumble to the pressure a new puppy. Luna joins the extended family in mid August. While living at home this will sustain Jesss need for a puppy but please remain on guard to re apply pressure to Hayden in the near future.

04.01.2022 We came across these recently from a few years ago - what a tragedy! Hayden and Jess tried to draw portraits of each other aaaaaand it didn’t go well. Who do you think did a better job? (I mean it’s pretty obvious but let’s try and make Hayden feel a little better)
