✨ Meet the Team – James ✨

Next up in our line up of physiotherapists is James!

🔹 What area of physio are you most passionate about?
Providing excellent musculoskeletal physiotherapy care. I love seeing patients regain their spark. The ability to help facilitate this by helping reduce or eliminate pain, restore function and confidence, and support patients through the recovery process is something I am very grateful for.
A particular area of interest of mine is tendon related pain and dysfunction (upper and lower limb).

🔹 Favourite holiday destination?
I think we are so fortunate to have such amazing places to visit in our own backyard – within Australia. I really love Queensland and have a soft spot for the Sunshine Coast, and the Far North (Cairns–Port Douglas and the Daintree Rainforest).

🔹 What’s your favourite part of working at Physio Centre Bendigo?
The tight-knit team we have here – it’s genuinely enjoyable coming to work each day. And of course, working with our patients – being trusted to help patients improve their health and quality of life is something I feel very grateful for and I take this seriously. It’s the best job.

With many winter sports now commencing their pre-season training, it is important to be mindful of the potential increased risk of injury during this time.

When training intensity ramps up faster than your body adapts, the risk of strains, sprains and overload injuries increases — especially in sports like football, soccer and netball that involve sprinting, cutting and jumping.

Why risk is higher:
• Sudden jump in training load
• High-speed running + jumping
• Reduced off-season conditioning
• Fatigue with limited recovery

✅ Reduce your risk:
• Progress loads gradually (don’t go 0–100)
• Prioritise strength (glutes, hamstrings, calves, groin)
• Include landing & neuromuscular control work
• Warm up properly
• Recover well — sleep & fuel matter

🔹 The area of physiotherapy you’re most passionate about?
I have focused on pelvic health for the majority of my professional career and love working in this area.

🔹 If you weren’t a physio, what would you be?
Possibly an architect or something related to building design.

🔹 Favourite holiday destination?
I rarely go back to the same place as I like new experiences. I choose destinations based on the local cuisine or access to good food!

✨ Exciting News! ✨

We’re thrilled to officially announce the opening of our second site at 2/60 McIvor Road, Bendigo!

Our new Neale Street Clinic is located just across the road from our original McIvor Road Clinic, right on the corner of Neale Street and McIvor Road.

You can expect the same great service you know and trust, with most of our friendly team working across both clinics.

This expansion means more appointment availability throughout the week, making it even easier to book a time that suits you when you need it most.

It’s that time of year again - Australian Open season!

With the Aussie Open in full swing in Melbourne, we all suddenly become massive tennis fans.
Whether you’re glued to the TV or inspired to pick up a racquet yourself, tennis season often brings a spike in one very common issue…

Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis)

Pain on the outside of the elbow isn’t just for the pros. Tennis elbow develops when the forearm muscles and tendons are overloaded repeatedly, leading to irritation and micro-damage over time.

Common causes include:
Repetitive gripping or wrist movements
Poor technique or equipment setup
Sudden increases in training or work load
Prolonged computer, tool, or manual work

It usually creeps in gradually and can make everyday tasks like lifting, pouring a kettle, or shaking hands painful.

The good news? With the right rehab, load management, and technique adjustments, tennis elbow is very treatable.

Headaches and migraines aren’t always “just something you have to live with.”

Neck tension, posture, muscle tightness, and joint restrictions can all play a role in triggering or worsening symptoms.

Physiotherapy can help by addressing these contributing factors through hands-on treatment, targeted exercises, and education to reduce frequency and severity.

If headaches are impacting your work, sleep, or daily life, a professional assessment may help you get back to feeling your best.
