🏃‍♂️ Just Started Running? Read This First! 🏃‍♂️

Thinking of lacing up your runners and hitting the pavement? 🏃‍♀️ Running is a great way to boost fitness — but doing it the right way can help you avoid common injuries and stay on track!

💡 Top 4 Tips for Beginner Runners:

1️⃣ Don’t Overdo It
Start slow. Run 3x per week and let your body rest in between. Recovery = progress!

2️⃣ Strength Training Matters
Balance your training with strength work, especially on weaker muscles. This supports better performance and injury prevention.

3️⃣ Your Shoes + Surface Count
Choose soft, even surfaces (like grass) when you can, and make sure your shoes are the right fit with proper support.

4️⃣ Listen to Your Body
A little soreness is normal, but if pain sticks around for more than 48 hours, don’t push through it — speak to a professional.

💬 Our physiotherapists can help you build a safe, effective running plan that works for your body.

📞 Book an assessment today and run smarter, not harder!

⚽🏃‍♂️ Osteitis P***s – a common cause of groin pain in runners, soccer players, and footballers.
It happens when the p***c bone joint becomes irritated and inflamed from repeated load, running, or kicking.

💪 How Physio Helps:

Health vs. Wellness – What’s the Difference?
Health is about your physical, mental, and social wellbeing. Wellness goes further – it’s about thriving, not just surviving. You might feel “healthy” but still lack wellness if you’re stiff, fatigued, or unable to enjoy the activities you love.

Physiotherapy can help you regain wellness by:
✨ Setting meaningful, personal goals
✨ Identifying barriers (like old injuries or poor balance)
✨ Building confidence to try new things

Little by little, you can move towards both health and wellness. 💪
Speak to your physio today about how to start your journey!

Give us call on 07 5495 3255 to book in a physiotherapy assessment today!

In 2025 we’re celebrating 36 years of practice and keeping you on the path to better health!

The human brain is one of the most complex systems in the world, with billions of neurons working together to control thought, movement, memory, and emotion.
But in its complexity lies a beautiful simplicity: the brain can learn, adapt, and even heal. Through repetition and support, it can form new connections after injury — a process called neuroplasticity.
Brain injury, where caused by trauma, disease, or blood loss, is often called the “invisible injury” not because it isn’t real or life-altering, but because its effects are often hidden beneath the surface. No two brains are the same, and no two people will experience a brain injury in exactly the same way.
That’s what makes understanding brain injury so complex—and so important.

Some people may look "fine" but struggle daily with memory loss, fatigue, sensory overload, or mood changes. Others may face challenges with speech, mobility, or emotional regulation. These effects can be lifelong, misunderstood, and incredibly isolating.

This week, we recognise the resilience of our amazing patients and everyone living with brain injuries, the challenges they face, and the importance of compassion, awareness, and individualised support.

Let’s work together to break the stigma, start conversations, and ensure that no one facing a brain injury ever feels invisible.

💥 Shoulder Dislocations – What You Need to Know

The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the body — and that flexibility comes at a cost: less stability. That’s why shoulder dislocations are so common.

🦴 A dislocation happens when the head of the upper arm bone pops out of its socket — often during a fall, sports injury, or sudden force while the arm is raised.

⚠️ First-time dislocations are typically the most serious and should always be assessed by a medical professional. X-rays may be needed before safely relocating the joint.

👨‍⚕️ How physio helps:
✔️ Guidance on protecting the shoulder during early healing
✔️ Strengthening exercises to stabilise the joint
✔️ Rehab plans to help prevent future dislocations

If you’ve dislocated your shoulder — or had repeat episodes — we’re here to support your recovery.
📞 Book with our physios today.
