💗 It’s a girl 💗

On Friday 25th February 2022 at 10:11am, Shaun & I welcomed our beautiful daughter Harley Grace Lynette Brewster into the world 🌎

We have been living in a blissful little bubble of baby love for the past 2 weeks, which is why it has taken me so long to post a photo!

Thank you to everyone who has sent us messages of congratulations so far & for all the beautiful gifts we have received.

We are all super happy & healthy, and both mum & dad are loving every minute watching our perfect little girl grow & change everyday.

Looks nasty, but feels SO good 👌🏼

We’ve all seen the marks left over after cupping therapy, but what are they and why are they useful?

Firstly, the marks are simply very small broken blood vessels.
Does it hurt? Absolutely NOT.
Neither the cupping, or the marks left behind should hurt 🙅🏼‍♀️

Apart from the amazing deep muscle and connective tissues effects that the cups provide, the blood in the tissue kicks off a chain of events involving enzymes and other chemical mediators that reduce inflammation ⬇️, produce anti-oxidant effects and improve immune function ⬆️.
And not just in the muscle, but systematically around the body! 💪🏼

This Myo Mummas-to-be is away on a little camping babymoon this week before I smash out my last couple of weeks in the clinic and head off on maternity leave 👶🏻

My last day in the clinic will be Thursday 6th January 2022, there are limited appointments available between now & then for my existing clients only, so please don’t leave booking to the last minute or you may miss out!

Also… PLEASE 🙏🏼 be mindful of last minute cancellations. I know this can be a busy time of year for everyone, but it’s incredibly difficult to fill an appointment with less than 24 hours notice - which means I lose out on income if you forget your appointment or cancel last minute.

Everyone receives an appointment confirmation text & email the day before for a reason 🤨

Have a great week, looking forward to seeing you all in the clinic 💙

Great post by Advanced Clinical Education with a simple explanation of the importance of finding the balance between recovery & stress to maintain a high level of performance without causing strain/injury👌🏼

With the AFL Grand Final today, it is a great time to consider what it takes to consistently perform at a high level.
We NEED some stress in our life to grow and develop.
Maximising that growth depends on swinging between "comfort" (recovery) and "stretch" (stress). If we maintain a health balance of the two, it allows us to sneak into "strain" (potential for damage) at times, without risking too much.
-
How is your "Comfort/Stretch" game currently?
Are you being mindful of that balance?
-
Likewise, are you spending too much time in comfort, or perhaps in strain?

The difference between boredom and burnout is all about where you spend your time.

Ever get that déjà vu feeling?
Yeah, me too 😞

Due to the 7 day snap lockdown for Greater Geelong & the Surf Coast Shire, the G Myotherapy clinic will be closed as of 11:59pm tonight.

I will be in contact with all clients who have upcoming appointments this week to reschedule to the following week & then I’ll keep all my fingers & toes crossed that we open up again when we’re expected to 🤞🏼

Stay safe everyone.

Generally speaking, most people think of scars as a visual mark on the skin, sometimes with an interesting story behind it 🧗🏼‍♀️🏂🏄🏻‍♀️🚴🏻‍♂️

However, what most don’t know is that these seemingly unremarkable scars are only the top of the iceberg.

Picture the scar as a tree trunk 🌳 Below that trunk is a network of roots weaving their way into the ground (i.e. your soft tissues) and tethering to anything they can.

As you can imagine, this in turn can cause all sorts of problems - pain, restrictions, a feeling of dragging and pulling.

Scar tissue dry needling is one of the techniques I use to treat not just the scars you can see, but also it’s roots underneath the surface.

Results include a reduction in pain, change in scar visibility and a greater range of movement.

Reposted from :

The Victorian government are telling us that the decision to shut out Myotherapists is to minimise movement in the community. So let's look at this in real life -

👉🏻 Patient in debilitating pain;
👉🏻 Unable to access trusted Myotherapist that 'knows' their pain story, what treatment helps and what doesn't;
👉🏻 Patient now 'moves' about community to access alternate care options;
👉🏻 Alternate care provided may not ‘work’ to ease any of the pain;
👉🏻 Same patient is now forced to seek additional care – perhaps from the same provider or may choose to another care option;
👉🏻 Patient may even seek pharmaceutical relief – or visit their GP for prescription of pain medications; OR
👉🏻 May avoid further treatment due to their vulnerability and fear of flaring their pain and possibly wake one day, unable to move due to their debilitating pain and end up in our hospitals.

Removing access to their trusted Myotherapists for patients in pain may in fact create unintended consequences.

What could have been 1 interaction with their trusted Myotherapist may now be multiple interactions.

Does this serve the governments theory to reduce community movement – we think not!

Let Myotherapy be a part of the solution.
