JOINT REPLACEMENT,
- Atlas Physio

Joint replacements are surgeries conducted to replace bony human joints with prostheses to restore function and minimise pain. Every year in Australia, over one-hundred thousand surgeries are performed to replace knees and hips alone. Other joints like the shoulders, the elbows, and ankles can also be replaced, but hip and knee surgeries are by far the most common. People elect to undergo joint replacement surgeries for many reasons, but the most common is because the joint is painful to use because of age-related weardown of one of its component parts.

Physiotherapy input following joint replacement is important for two reasons. Firstly, because surgical procedures require causing damage to the body to achieve a therapeutic aim, rehabilitation will focus on restoring the limb to as good a functional state as it can be before undertaking heavier exercise or returning to work and life. Secondly, physiotherapy rehabilitation is necessary to minimise complications such as stiffness, pain and weakness.

Management of your discomfort depends on its causative factors, how it feels and changes during the day, what makes it better and worse, and the length of time you have been experiencing that pain. At Atlas Physio, we will provide you with education, structured management, and ongoing monitoring of your pain both in-clinic and out. Contact us to arrange an assessment, and to take the first step on a course of corrective care today.

MUSCULAR WEAKNESS,
- Atlas Physio

Muscular weakness refers to a situation in which a muscle or group of muscles cannot produce the strength needed for a task. Muscular weakness can happen after periods of intense exercise or effort. This is muscular fatigue and is a normal part of living. The harder muscle groups will need to work, the longer they will need to rest. Even if the effort isn't intense but sustained, muscle groups can become fatigued with time. Anyone who's started slouching after a long period of sitting down at a desk can attest to that. Muscular fatigue can become a problem if the fatigue occurs earlier than expected or takes a longer time than usual to recover.

There are other causes for muscular weakness in addition to this, such as illnesses, injuries, changes in the connection between the muscle and the brain, and changes in the physiology of the muscle itself. In these cases, weakness is the result of a process that needs to be addressed alongside strengthening the muscles themselves. Common causes of muscular weakness in this way include decreased endurance because of changes to the heart and lungs, decreased strength due to a stroke, decreased coordination and sustainability of movements because of Parkinson's disease, and many other factors.

Management of your discomfort depends on its causative factors, how it feels and changes during the day, what makes it better and worse, and the length of time you have been experiencing that pain. At Atlas Physio, we will provide you with education, structured management, and ongoing monitoring of your pain both in-clinic and out.

CORE MUSCLE WEAKNESS,
- Atlas Physio

Core Weakness refers to poor strength, power generation or muscular endurance of one or more of the muscles that comprise the Core Muscles. The Core Muscles include the abdominals, the obliques, the transversus muscles, as well as the muscles of the diaphragm and those muscles that make up the Pelvic Floor. Weakness of the Core Muscles can lead to poor posture when in static or moving positions, can lead to increased discomfort in the lower and midback, can lead to increased stiffness of muscles around the core, and can increase the risk of irritation and injury of those structures.

Weakness of the Core Muscles, poor posture, and poor muscular endurance are risk factors for developing back pain, and are often the first things addressed in the management of that condition. However, Core Weakness can have other effects too. A weak Core makes it more difficult to lift, move, and push objects as well as increasing the risk of injury from recreational exercises like running, weightlifting, and cycling, as well as awkward movements like those needed around the house.

Management of your discomfort depends on its causative factors, how it feels and changes during the day, what makes it better and worse, and the length of time you have been experiencing that pain. Contact us to arrange an assessment, and to take the first step on a course of corrective care today.

SPONDY SPINAL CONDITIONS,
- Atlas Physio

Spondylosis, Spondylitis, Spondylolysis, and Spondylolisthesis are structural conditions that affect the alignment and integrity of the bony parts of the human spine. Spondy- conditions typically occur in the lower back, but due to the lifetime strain, ongoing loading and physical activities, as well as the effect of age- and disease-related deterioration, it is possible for Spondy- conditions to affect other segments of the spine as well.

Regardless of the nature and extent of the condition, physiotherapy intervention can help to assess, diagnose, triage and manage any discomfort as well as take note of the presence or likelihood of serious side-effects or symptoms that warrant further investigation.

Management of your discomfort depends on its causative factors, how it feels and changes during the day, what makes it better and worse, and the length of time you have been experiencing that pain. Contact us to arrange an assessment, and to take the first step on a course of corrective care today.

FRAILTY,
- Atlas Physio

Frailty is a clinical state that is associated with an increased risk of harm, admission to hospital, disability, and poorer quality of life. Frailty refers to a loss of physical strength and physiological reserve, means that an individual living with frailty is more vulnerable to the physically stressing effects of diseases, infections, and injuries. Because of this increased vulnerability, individuals who are frail sometimes require increased care support and monitoring, from medical and allied health, social supports, and personal care.

Frailty is most commonly seen in the elderly, though any individual can experience frailty as a consequence of illness, injury, or some other factor that depletes the body's ability to maintain itself. For this reason, while frailty is associated with ageing, frailty is a problem separate to ageing and increasing geriatry. Because of this, anyone who experiences a chronic illness, who spends a long time in hospital, or who becomes injured runs the risk of frailty.

Management of your discomfort depends on its causative factors, how it feels and changes during the day, what makes it better and worse, and the length of time you have been experiencing that pain. Contact us to arrange an assessment, and to take the first step on a course of corrective care today.

POST-SURGERY PHYSIOTHERAPY
- Atlas Physio

Post-Surgical Physiotherapy refers to any physiotherapy intervention undertaken following, and in the context of, surgical management of a problem. Timely physiotherapy intervention in the form of post-surgical rehab has been established as a highly effective means of ensuring a good outcome following surgery, minimising the risk of an adverse outcome, and best preparing someone to meet the demands of their lives.

Post-Surgical Physiotherapy can be conducted as soon as less than twenty-four hours of an operation, depending on the surgeon's orders as well as the state of the patient following the procedure. This physiotherapy is routinely conducted within the hospital, on ward or in a specific rehabilitation gym designed to provide a safe and supportive environment in which exercise can be undertaken, and where patients can be monitored and cared for in the event of an issue.

Management of your discomfort depends on its causative factors, how it feels and changes during the day, what makes it better and worse, and the length of time you have been experiencing that pain. Contact us to arrange an assessment, and to take the first step on a course of corrective care today.

FALLS
- Atlas Physio

A fall is an event where the body, or part of the body, comes to rest on the ground unintentionally. This means that a fall can refer to any time someone slips, trips, slides off a chair, and lands on the ground. Falls can occur in many circumstances - due to illness, weakness in the legs, loss of balance, loss of blood pressure, a blow to the head causing unconsciousness, and ingestion of alcohol or narcotics. Falls can be minor and result in superficial injuries, or they can be fatal. A fall onto grass can be inconsequential for a child or someone immediately post-adolescence, while a fall onto the same surface can result in a lethal fracture for someone of significantly older age, and this risk is amplified by the presence of comorbidities.

Management of your discomfort depends on the cause of the pain, how it feels and changes over the day, what makes it better or worse, and the length of time you have been experiencing the pain. At Atlas Physio, we will provide you with education, structured management, and ongoing monitoring of your pain both in and out of the clinic. Contact us to arrange an assessment, and to take the first step on a course of corrective care today.
