11.01.2022 Exercise Right Week Is Here!Exercise Right Week Is Here!

09.01.2022 Are you sitting for long periods throughout the day? If the answer is yes, you may have tight and overactive hip flexors which can cause a myriad of functional movement problems. Movement impairments caused by tight hip flexors can lead to excessive low back arch (lordosis), hamstring strain (long and weak hamstrings) and/or back pain. The statistics show that 80% of adults experience low back pain during some point in their lives, with the majority of acute low back pain bei...ng a result of movement impairment. The more time the hip flexors are in the short-contracted position, the harder it is to restore them to their optimal length. This puts the low back into extension and the pelvis to shift anteriorly (anterior pelvic tilt-further contracting the hip flexors and lengthening the hamstrings). This destabilises the lumbar spine and can cause pain and injury. An accredited AEP can help restore flexibility and improve stability and strength. If your condition is considered chronic (at least 12 months) you may be eligible for an EPC from your local GP (up to 5 medicare rebates). Our EP's can design a home exercise program or you can attend the clinic for supervised exercise sessions. Call us on 9922 2201. TEC See more

07.01.2022 Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in Australia. The number of people living with cardiovascular disease is increasing due to factors including population ageing and improved treatments that have resulted in people living longer with CVD. Two common surgical treatments for CVD are coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). CABG is used as a surgical procedure to treat narrowed/blocked arteries that supply blood ...to the heart muscle. This is accomplished by bypassing the blocked artery with a healthy blood vessel grafted from a healthy leg, arm or chest. The new graft carries blood around the blockage to increase blood flow to the heart. PCI - formerly known as 'angioplasty with stent' uses a catheter (thin and flexible tube) used to open a blood vessel in the heart narrowed from plaque build-up (atherosclerosis). Each of the above procedures are interventions to help increase your ability to participate in physical activity. The modifiable risk factors that can be managed through exercise and lifestyle changes include High Cholesterol T2DM HTN Smoking Obesity Sedentary lifestyle Stress Insomnia sleep deprivation An Accredited Exercise Physiologist will consider your current activity level and work with your Doctor to prescribe the best intervention to help improve your health outcomes.
