25.01.2022 ON THE BLOG! Were excited to announce that our brand new shiny blog is up and running! Our first article is for women and men to help you determine if your pelvic floor is struggling. Remember its not normal to leak and there is something you can do about it!

25.01.2022 It’s not just about the sore bit This cricket player presented with elbow pain after throwing. Yes there were some things at the elbow that we addressed but it was weaknesses around the shoulder that were causing the elbow to work harder to throw the ball and therefore get sore. Shoulder region got stronger & elbow got better Note: Maaaaaaany things can be the culprit in a thrower all the way down to the leg

24.01.2022 TELEHEALTH AVAILABLE I am now set up to provide safe and secure Telehealth to anyone who may need it! Im feeling a little helpless at the moment especially with my loved ones in Canada in lockdown so Im hoping to provided a little relief to those in need. I will post a detailed video tomorrow on how this works but basically its Physio online. I will do an assessment as I normally would in the clinic (allow 45-60mins) which includes taking your history, assessing you visually and providing you with an action plan. If you or anyone you know is unable to attend a clinic to get the help you need Im here Statistics show great results with Telehealth consultations so theres no need to struggle! Message, call, text or email for more info. Stay safe everyone

23.01.2022 Powering through some post-op knee rehab Steady progressions have lead to a successful return to full lifting loads and now the start of a return to running program Absolutely nailing it @lloydcjohnson

23.01.2022 DEADLIFTS One of the best exercises to strengthen hamstrings when done correctly! People often fear them as they have heard that deadlifts injure backs, this is only the case when they are done with poor form. This picture of @joey1809 from @aspiregroup demonstrates beautiful technique! Mainly note that his back is neutral NOT extended, which is where things can go pear shaped When taught correctly this is a great exercise but you have to earn the right to load! Focus on form first with a broomstick then gradually increase your load as form allows (this can take weeks to months depending on the person). Patience young grasshoppers

22.01.2022 THIS IS HOW WE DO IT Not matter what you’re training for, progressing your load depends on how your body responds. Positive response, great, load it again and you’re safe to add little more. Negative response, don’t stop everything, instead readjust, load again and repeat until there is a positive response. . Load management is one of my favourite things to do with patients so fire through any questions .... credit: The amazing @gabbetttim See more

22.01.2022 Watching storms roll in Stay safe everyone!

Louise is not only loved by farm animals shes a physiotherapist with a special interest in womens health issues, co-owner of Apex Physiotherapy and an all around amazing human! Tomorrow we will be launching her educational postnatal health video that focuses on helping you understand the roll of your pelvic floor, how to correctly contract and strengthen it for life and why contracting incorrectly is harmful. This video is a must watch for all moms and moms to be !

18.01.2022 Hello to this amazing community! 3 years ago when I started my post graduate degree I had to make the hard decision to put the brakes on the Stability Studio to focus on my studies. Im back now with a renewed focus and will be rebranding to SNS Sports Physiotherapy to reflect that. We are currently in the process of getting the website up and running which will have the same great content and more! In the meantime I am working on getting a Vimeo account made public to y...ou so you can have free access to all of our amazing videos from years past. Im so excited to reconnect and continue to promote health and happiness - Steph

17.01.2022 I’ve done what to my tail? And it’s going to take how many months to get stronger?

17.01.2022 Don’t under estimate the power of a good stroll: Mental & physical benefits Great form of active recovery on rest days or when soreness creeps in! Bonding time with 2&4 legged friends #anyexcuseforasnagpic

17.01.2022 MUSCLE LENGTH We have a lot of tools in our bag of tricks to help lengthen muscles and reduce tension, the most effective and long lasting being specific exercises. An occasional nudge from massage or needling can provide temporary relief but MUST be backed up with some quality rehab/exercises

16.01.2022 HAPPY WA DAY! Hoping that all of our fabulous followers in Western Australia are taking some time to appreciate this amazing place today :)

16.01.2022 LATERAL MOVEMENT I love the running warm-up that Scarlett from @doserunning_perth posted a few days ago (in my story) but I love her form a little bit more! Often people struggle with these movements and knee/hip pain can present. Lets break down a few key points to focus on to ensure good form: . 1) Yellow line (Level Pelvis): Scarlett keeps her pelvis level rather than letting the side of her floating leg drop towards the ground .... 2) Red & blue lines (Leg position): On landing your knee should point to the outside of your foot not the inside. This indicates strong glutes and leg muscles and reduces pressure on the knee, hip, ankle & foot . 3) Also note her use of arm swing for momentum and openness through her chest . Start slow, as she does in the video, and do in front of a mirror a few times to check your form. Over time build to bounding as your control allows See more

15.01.2022 Relax the "core" muscles! :) Should we stop using the term "core stability"? When you brace your spine, you compress it more, which can lead to more pain. Peop...le with chronic low back pain tend to have more trunk muscle activation. There are a lot of fears and wrong beliefs about the back in our society and most physiotherapists are also afraid for the back. We dont need to be. :) It is not a vulnerable structure that need to be protected. We dont have to be fearful for bending... We dont have to pre-tense before we move... We dont need to pull your belly in before you move. We dont have to sit up straight all day. The back is strong, robust and can be trusted. We can sit slouched, upright, it doesnt matter... its the time in one posture that is probably more important. So just move more and relax! :) In this video, Prof. Peter OSullivan explains more why we should stop thinking about the "core". Check out also the other OSullivan/ CFT videos in the playlist: https://www.youtube.com/watch Picture made by hamish the physio! :)

11.01.2022 BAND PLACEMENT EMG studies have shown greater glute (bum) activation with the band placed around the feet Next best activation is around the ankles followed by around the knees Every human is different so do what gets you the best activation but have a play with all 3 Just make sure its the centre of your bum thats fired up NOT the outside of your hips ... Note: Dont do all 3 at once as pictured See more

On top of that the program and @doserunning_perth community have reinvigorated my relationship with running Thank you Scarlett & DOSE Running
