25.01.2022 When done correctly weight training can help you lose fat, increase your strength and muscle tone, and improve your bone density. Unfortunately, many gym-goers learn their technique by watching others and in return create a constant cycle of bad technique. Many overuse injuries are caused by doing repetitive actions with poor technique, causing excessive pressure to be applied to certain joints or muscles. It can also prevent you from achieving optimum results by decreasing ...your strength, speed and overall performance levels. To help prevent injury and ensure your technique is correct we offer both physiotherapy and exercise physiology at Sycamore Health.

19.01.2022 Pre and post-operative physiotherapy can be an essential part of recovery for a number of surgeries including, orthopaedic, spinal, obstetric and reconstructive. The goal of pre-operative rehab is to prepare your body as much as possible for surgery to help aid your post-operative recovery. Once the surgery is complete you’ll then typically undertake a post-operative rehabilitation program prescribed and supervised by your physiotherapist. The goals of this program could be t...o: Regain normal movement Regain strength Maintain fitness levels Restore balance Want to know more?

03.01.2022 If youve overdone your running training or twisted your ankle in a bad landing, then you may develop tendinopathy. Think of it as your tendon lodging a formal protest about overuse or trauma. As physiotherapists, we grade tendinopathy along a scale from the short-term reaction to overuse to the long-term degenerative condition where the tendon is unlikely to heal fully. If one of your tendons is sore, then listen to it. See a physio and follow a treatment plan. Complete re...st isnt helpful but theres often a bit of trial and error involved in working out the right load for your tendon during recovery. Here are 5 things you need to know about tendinopathy, https://loom.ly/f7ik2Bs #sycamore #physio #injury #physiotherapy #morayfield #caboolture #sportsphysio #gyminjury #injuryrecovery
