23.01.2022 Getting onto and off the ground In part 2 of our 3 part mini series we break down the movement between our two lunge phases that help us get both down and back up.... Todays phase focuses on moving from the static lunge to your bottom or the seated phase. If you have been practicing this at home remember to keep using a solid item for balance and support first and foremost as you need your movement to be as safe as possible. I also discuss the use of an aid such as a walking stick and a chair. Stay tuned this Saturday for the final instalment. Hannah Liddington Strength and Conditioning Coach Langton Physiotherapy

22.01.2022 Raise your hand if you’ve been hitting the footpath more than usual while in lockdown! Great idea, but if it’s caused some flare ups of old injuries, ...consult your physio for a plan to safely exercise without overdoing it. Call to chat about your options, whether that be a telehealth appointment or in-clinic consultation. Either way, you can be assured that your health is their top priority.

12.01.2022 In todays episode we are covering off part 3 of our mini series focusing on GETTING OFF THE GROUND In our previous two episodes we have worked on getting onto the ground safely and comfortably. Todays picture series is all about getting up from the ground with emphasis on how to slowly and calmly position yourself to be able to move should you have a fall.... Falling is a huge concern for a lot of people within our community, apart from being an injury risk many worry that if they are home alone they may not have the strength or ability to get back onto their feet or be able to move to the phone to call for help. As with all episodes I always urge you to seek assessment and advice from a trained professional should you feel you are not at a stage of health or fitness to attempt practicing any movements given. An individually tailored, low intensity home strength and mobility program, coupled with movement assessment can reduce your risk of falls and condition you to be able to feel confident in your daily movement.

10.01.2022 In todays episode of our Moving Better series we are breaking down the complex movement pattern of getting on and off the ground Today we are covering off on PHASE 1 which is our lunge movement to reduce our height and lower us down. This is also used in reverse to help us stand up. To practive this at home use a sturdy support such as the back of the lounge, a bench etc and ensure you do not go passed a depth that is comfortable for you.... I'd you wish to progress to placing a knee on the ground ensure you have something soft or a raised height so you so as not to drive your knee with force into the hard floor! This movement needs to be conducted slowly to ensure we are using muscles not gravity to move. I'd you can't conduct this slowly regress your depth and work on control.

05.01.2022 Friday is our last day before Christmas break time! See you in 2021.

01.01.2022 In todays episode of our Moving Better series we are working on getting onto and up from the ground! I am incredibly passionate about this subject as it is such a duanting task for so many people and often a huge concern if you do have a stumble or a fall and feel you cannot get back up on your feet unaided. By breaking this movement down to three stages or three main movement patterns and working on each until you feel confident it doesn't seem such an overwhelm...ing task. Keep tuned for the second part of this post to learn what the first phase of the movement is and how to work on it at home. Hannah Liddington Strength and Conditioning Coach Langton Physiotherapy
