🎄 Christmas Trading Hours 🎄

We’ll be open pretty much right through the festive season, except for the public holidays. So if you need a last-minute tune-up, injury check, or just want to stay moving over Christmas, we’ve got you covered!

We’ve had so many Hyrox athletes in over the past few weeks for final tune-ups and last-minute check-ins — it’s been awesome seeing you all getting ready!

With the big weekend almost here, here are a few quick tips to help you feel strong and enjoy the day:
• Warm up – a light jog, some mobility, and a few activation drills. Aim to get your body ready, not tired
• Pay attention to good form, small adjustments can make a big difference!
• Pace yourself – if technique starts slipping or niggles start to show up, slow down, breathe, and reset. You’ll finish stronger.
• Stick to what you know – no brand new shoes, snacks, gels, or drills. Your body performs best with what it’s used to.
• Fuel & recover – make sure you get enough carbs, drink plenty of water (electrolytes help too), cool down, stretch out, and get some sleep.

Good luck to all those competing! 💪

🎅 End of year appointments 🎅

With the end of year craziness upon us, it’s the time of year our appointments start filling up super fast!

Most of our practitioners are now booking out well in advance, especially for those prized after-hours appointments - so if you’re hoping to get in before the end of the year, now’s the time to book!

Jump online or give us a call to find yourself a time 😊

Sleep and rest aren’t lazy, they’re where real progress happens. 🙌
Muscles repair, hormones rebalance, and your body prepares to come back stronger.

Without recovery, you’re just adding stress on top of fatigue.
With it, you’re unlocking better performance, more consistency, and fewer injuries 💪

✨ Work hard. Recover harder.

🧠 The way you lift matters just as much as what you lift.

Proper technique isn’t just about looking good it’s about building strength safely, protecting your joints, and getting the most out of every rep.

💪 A clean deadlift means more power, better posture, and fewer injuries down the track.

Train smart, move well, and your body will thank you for it 👊

We’ll take ghosts and goblins any day over bad posture, ignored injuries, and last-minute marathon prep 👀 💀

Have a Happy Halloween from the team at Active Balance Physio! 🎃 🧡

It’s not true! 👇

Here’s the real story:
✅ When done with good technique, overhead pressing actually builds shoulder strength and stability.
✅ It helps improve mobility and posture by training your shoulder through a full, controlled range of motion.
✅ It reduces injury risk by strengthening the rotator cuff and supporting muscles that keep your shoulder joint stable.
✅ It’s one of the best ways to build resilient, functional shoulders for both sport and everyday movement.

It’s not the lift that causes pain, it’s how you lift, how much
load you use, and how well you prepare your body for it.

💡 Train smart, strengthen gradually, and your shoulders will thank you.

Last night we were so lucky to have Tash from Lighthouse Physio join us to educate us on all things women's & pelvic health 🙌

It was wonderful to have someone so knowledgeable and passionate come and teach us - we discussed many aspects of pelvic and women's health including:

🟣 Working with pregnant athletes and guiding them with training through pregnancy
🟣 Working with post partum women, with a focus on returning to sport and training
🟣 Ways we can help to treat & prevent musculoskeletal issues during and after pregnancy
🟣 Considerations around menopause & perimenopause, pain and exercise
🟣 Recognising when clients may need more specialised care and when to refer them onto services such as Lighthouse

Thanks so much Tash, we can't wait to have you back for another education session next year! ❤️🙏
