Track your progress - how do you know if your treatment/rehab is working?

Jamie had severe low back pain for a month. He saw another therapist a few times and followed a treatment plan at home. It provided a small amount of relief but didn’t last long.

Photo 1 shows how restricted Jamie was when trying to bend forward (bending further quickly increased tightness and pain). He was barely able to work and couldn’t go to the gym, surf or play golf. Photo 2 shows his ability to bend forward after we did 3 sessions in 6 days focusing on problem solving and tracking his progress to make sure he was improving.

When you start a weight loss program or train for a competition, you track your progress so you can see the results. With pain and injury, you need to track your progress. Use physical or functional tests so you can see your progress.

Last week I had a great time at Moore Health in Sydney helping Cath's clients achieve better health through enabling their physical activity and improving the time they spend with family and friends!

Don't believe what your scans tell you

Dont become a VOMIT! 😊
VOMIT stands for: victim of medical imaging technology.
Great poster made by Bahram Jam! 👍

In May I ran a clinic at the Swimming New England & North West Inc. development weekend. It was great to give back to the community where I grew up. I taught the young athletes how to use their glutes when kicking to prevent injury and enhance performance!
I was also able to teach the coaches and swimmers how to teach it to the swimmers at their own clubs!
The kids were lucky enough to have 2 coaches from Sydney Olympic Park coach them for the weekend.
