25.01.2022 Lower back pain is sometimes associated with nerve irritation from underlying wear and tear or trauma (but not always!). These abnormalities irritate the nerve root and can lead to muscle dysfunction and shortening. The flow on effect is the development of pain leading to changes in movement patterns, muscle use and further complications.... Through the use of dry needling this muscle dysfunction can be reversed and the nerve irritation controlled to prevent ongoing episodes of pain.

23.01.2022 TIP 13 SURFACES Running is bad for your knees, and don’t even get me started on road running!!! We hear these things from our patients so often.... Turns out, these ideas aren’t entirely true. Studies show that knee osteoarthritis rates in recreational runners are LESS than that of sedentary people (although elite runners have higher rates of knee OA). Also, run on a road, then run on grass. Which feels harder? With less ground reaction forces, like grass, your muscles have to do a little more to get that spring back up. For variety, we think it’s a good idea to mix up your running surfaces, to keep your body on it’s toes, figuratively (and literally).

22.01.2022 YOU'VE RECENTLY HAD A SCAN OR X-RAY NOW WHAT? You may have recently been referred by your GP, specialist, or physiotherapist to have some kind of scan done to investigate a potential joint or injury. This may be an X-ray, CT scan, ultrasound, or MRI.... Then, you receive a report from your health professional that may tell you of a problem visible on the scan. Popular findings are things like shoulder ‘bursitis’, muscle tears and low back disc bulges. In this situation, it is easy to assume that this is the cause of your symptoms or pain.

22.01.2022 Once you give your consent treatment will begin and your therapist will check regularly with you on what is being felt and if there is any unusual or significant symptoms being experienced you can request treatment be discontinued at any stage.

22.01.2022 OUR COMMITMENT TO YOU At our clinic, we refuse to see you too much, and we promise never to over service you to see you more than you need to be seen. But we also promise to see you through to the end of your treatment to get you across the line and back to your goals whatever that might be.... Whether it’s to run half marathon, or get back to touch footy, or to be able to get around home independently by yourself so you don’t have to end up in a nursing home (if you’re elderly)! If it means back to playing with your kids or getting back to work, whatever your goals are we want to see you to the end of that.

18.01.2022 It is very similar to Acupuncture and overlaps a lot in respect to how the treatment works however the sites chosen for needle insertion and the reasoning for this is where the two types of needling differ the most.

18.01.2022 "Hydrotherapy has also been found to be useful in the treatment of things like insomnia, diabetes and fibromyalgia." As physiotherapists, we employ hydrotherapy for the treatment of musculoskeletal conditions such as low back pain, arthritis and returning to walking/exercise after trauma. Studies conducted in the past 10yrs have shown that people living with back pain who use hydrotherapy as treatment experienced marked long term reductions in their pain then those who did no...t use it. The benefits of this are enormous as it cuts down on drug use, improved mental health and an overall better quality of life just by exercising in water!

16.01.2022 Evidence also shows that when a needle is inserted, the area around the needle becomes stimulated to release cytokines and trigger the release of natural opioids (Beta-endorphin and Enkephalins). This is your body’s own natural pain relief and anti-inflammatory system which have a flow on effect in other areas of the body leading to the release of white blood cells and antibodies responsible for dealing with infections.

16.01.2022 A big thanks to Corey and the gang at Gorilla Pit Strength & Conditioning for partnering with us at Lambton again this year!! We love working out of the gym and being more accessible to our Newcastle based clients. Looking forward to another great year in 2021. Not so big a thank you for the dead legs I will undoubtedly have tomorrow

14.01.2022 Be very careful about ignoring niggles! Who can relate to this?

14.01.2022 Dry needling for trigger point therapy was first introduced in 1979 when it was realised that the response to pain relief injections was not a result of the pain relief medication being delivered.

10.01.2022 5 TIPS FOR THE WEEKEND WARRIOR Here are 5 top tips for avoiding niggles and training well: 1. THINK BIG, START SMALL... The best way to avoid tendon issues, muscle strains or any number of overuse injuries is to start off your training at a lower level (less km’s, less time, half the weight, etc.) and slowly build back up over 3-4 weeks. 2. RECOVERY IS ALL-IMPORTANT The body repairs this over the next 24 hrs and, more importantly, bolsters the muscle fibres to be better prepared for the next workout. So schedule in rest days and chillout time. If it’s strength training you’re into, go for a light jog/swim on your day off. Make sure you get good sleep, hydrate well and ensure you have adequate protein intake pre- and post-workout for better muscle recovery. 3. MIX IT UP A good, balanced training program from a S+C coach, physiotherapist or personal trainer will ensure you cover all the bases and get the gains you’re after! 4. HAVE A TRAINING BUDDY If it’s motivation or consistency you lack, there’s nothing like a training partner who’s meeting you at 6:30am rain, hail or shine. Make sure you have similar goals and fitness levels and communicate on how both of you are feeling pre- and post-workout. 5. KNOW YOUR BODY AND MANAGE YOUR INJURIES WELL Niggles are often just a part of being active and playing sport. It’s often hard to know when something is just sore from working hard or whether there are more serious underlying issues grumbling away. In a culture of ‘she’ll be right’ and ‘I can put up with it’, too many of these innocuous niggles go on to more serious, harder to manage injuries.

09.01.2022 This is where Dry Needling can help to release the trigger points, optimise muscle function and activity and restore normal function. When the needle is inserted most patients will feel little more than a twitch and are often unable to detect when the needle has been inserted or removed. In some cases where larger trigger points have caused the muscle to become sensitive and shortened you may experience a minor cramp or ache sensation similar to a green ant, quite mild and ...very different to the sharp pain or discomfort you may be thinking about when the term needle is used. The needles we are talking about are tiny. Much smaller than anything you’ve experienced giving blood or receiving an immunisation and as a result any discomfort experienced will be significantly less as well.

06.01.2022 TIP 14 CONSISTENCY IS KEY This is the big take home message. People who are training at continuously high loads are less likely than people who have spikes and dips in their consistency.... That’s because the first group of people are used to the volume, whereas the second group will not be used to the sporadic long runs. So try and be consistent with your running, and if you’ve been busy, or sick, and have had a quiet week or 2 running, be prepared to drop back and build up again.

05.01.2022 Whenever dry needling is used your therapist will discuss options and alternatives and the reasons why dry needling is recommended. They will warn you for any risks that may be associated with needling but realistically these risks are small and occur less regularly than risks we attribute to other treatments without even thinking about it. Prior to any treatment commencing your therapist will ask for your consent and if you have any questions or concerns you should not hesit...ate to ask so you can be relaxed and have full confidence in what is being done. You can rest assured you’re in safe hands at Terrace Physio Plus when this treatment is being used on your issue.

05.01.2022 Standard (polyester) pillows should be replaced every six months as they lose structural support! We often replace our footwear regularly after six months up to a year if we spend time walking, standing or playing sports. Just like footwear, our pillows need to be replaced.... If you have a memory foam pillow the structural integrity can last from 18 months to 36 months.

04.01.2022 Needle insertion triggers a local twitch response which is an involuntary reflex in the muscle fibres which have become contracted and taut. This twitch in effect is the trigger point short circuiting and switching off, kind of like hitting the reset switch on your computer when it becomes slow and buggy. This allows the muscle fibres to reset and operate more normally contracting and relaxing as they should....

03.01.2022 The most common side effect is temporary soreness in the muscle being treated especially in and around the needle sites but this typically resolves in a day or two. Generally this would not affect performance the next day but may be an issue for some people who would prefer to avoid this at all cost. Obviously if you have a needle phobia, we don’t want to cause you distress.... This is one treatment option from a number on offer and whilst it may be the most effective in some situations, it should not be something that creates distress for you.

02.01.2022 Do you suffer from neck pain, headaches, migraines, or difficulty getting to sleep? The cause of this can often come from the pillow. Maintaining posture throughout the day is very important, however we also spend up to eight hours a day sleeping.... For this we all need the appropriate support to allow the soft tissue structures supporting the neck to relax and recover from the daily load it is placed under. Reducing this load at night tight works to reduce headaches, neck pain, stiffness, snoring and ultimately improves quality of sleep through improving neck and head position.

02.01.2022 Whilst we don’t claim to truly know or understand Acupuncture, our basic understanding in how it differs to Dry Needling is that Acupuncture targets the restoration of energy pathways or Qi through the body. Acupuncture practitioners target blockages to the flow of Qi by needling along specific energy channels called meridians linked to specific dysfunctions and abnormalities. This is why they might insert needles in your leg to treat a lower back complaint....
