Our osteo word of the month is ‘Gastrocnemius’ (pronounced gas-troc-nee-me-us). The gastroc (for short) is a powerful muscle found in the back of our leg, or calf region. This muscle crosses both the knee and the ankle joint, and so plays an important role in moving both joints. The gastroc is joined by two other muscles in the calf called the ‘soleus’ and ‘plantaris’. These muscles literally put a spring in our step, driving our bodies forward when we walk or run.

So many of us suffer from lack of sleep in this bustling world we live in. Regular and plentiful sleep is important to ensure our bodies repair from the daily grind and function at full efficiency each and every day! Aim for 7-9 hours of sleep each night. How do you sleep?

The shoulder is the most moveable joint in the body! The vast range of motion in our shoulders allow us to carry out important daily tasks, including washing and brushing our hair, doing up our bra straps and putting our hands/arms behind our back.

Do you have shoulder pain and struggle to carry out some of these tasks? See us for a thorough assessment, diagnosis and treatment. We’ll have you washing, brushing and moving in no time! 👌🏼

Vitamin A is important for healthy skin, eyes and a strong immune system.

Good sources of vitamin A include meat, poultry, fish, tomatoes, leafy green and orange vegetables, such as carrots.

Remember your parents telling you that carrots help you to see in the dark… Well turns out they actually do! Eat up!! 🥕

Exercise time! Ever considered squats? If not, maybe you should. They target the glutes, quads, hamstrings and core, as well as being a very functional exercise for us humans. We squat for many things in life… sitting from standing, going to the toilet, gardening, lifting boxes and many more!

Want to check if squats are good for you? We can assess your back, hips, knees and ankles to see if you have the right movement required to perform a good squat, while giving you some pointers in the process! Ask us about squats next time you’re in the clinic 🙌🏼 ��

A natural part of ageing is the slow degeneration of our bodily tissues. When this affects the tissues of our joints, it can lead to arthritis. But did you know there are different forms of arthritis? Most of us are familiar with osteoarthritis… The most common form. Other types include:

👉🏼 Rheumatoid arthritis
👉🏼 Psoriatic arthritis (relating to the skin condition psoriasis)
👉🏼 Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (affecting young people)
➕ Many more.

Osteopaths can treat the effects of arthritis and help you to manage your condition to the best of your ability.��

An average adult human brain weighs 1.4 kg (approximately 3 lbs). That’s about the same as 1.5 bags of sugar! Our brains are remarkable and are the driving force behind everything we do… breathing, moving, talking, swallowing, the list goes on! Thank goodness it is encased in a super strong skull. Look after those heads people!��Head pain? Come and see us for an assessment. 👌🏼 ��

Our osteo word of the month is ECZEMA. This condition is most commonly associated with itchy inflammation of the skin and can affect people from early childhood.
Did you know some foods can trigger an eczema flare up? Common culprits include dairy, wheat products, citrus fruits and eggs. We treat the body through the skin, so always tell us from the word go if you have a skin condition or irritation. 👌🏼 ��

The job of the human skull is to house the brain, eyes, parts of our ears and hearing system, as well as support structures of the face. The jaw bone, or ‘mandible’ is the largest bone in the skull and moves to allow us to speak and eat. Chomp chomp!

Did you know the bones that give your cheeks their shape are called the zygomatic bones. Now that’s a funny word! Who’s heard it before? 👇🏼 We challenge you to throw it into a conversation this week 😜 ��

Have you considered YOU lately? 2025 was a big year. Take some time to consider how your mental health really is. It’s an area of health that is overlooked by many. But we are only truly healthy if our mind, body AND spirit are all ticking along nicely together.

There is a wealth of help out there if you are struggling. Just talking to a loved one or close friend can be beneficial. But if you are worried and feel you need help, speak to your GP today.

You can always trust health professionals to have an open ear and everything you say in a treatment session stays confidential. We are here to help you find the help you need.��
