August is Tradies National Health Month, a time to spotlight the health and well-being of the people who keep our country moving.

Tradies are at higher risk of injury, especially to the back, shoulders, and knees. As physiotherapists, we’re here to help reduce that risk through prevention, treatment, and education.

This month is a great reminder to check in on your body, not just your tools.

Book in for an assessment by calling the clinic on 9873 3333 or via the BodyMotion website.

As physiotherapists, we regularly remind our patients about the importance of good posture. But even we aren't immune to the occasional lapse, especially during long hours at the desk.

A timely reminder that posture and ergonomics matter for everyone, including us!

Physiotherapy can be a game changer for tradies.
Ongoing back, knee, and shoulder pain can seriously affect your quality of life and your ability to keep doing the work you love. Here’s how physio can help:

🔹 Prevent injuries: Learn safe movement techniques to reduce strain and avoid common work-related injuries.
🔹 Early intervention: Address pain early to prevent it from becoming a long-term issue.
🔹 Improve quality of life: Manage pain effectively so you can stay productive and enjoy life outside of work.
🔹 Adapt with age: As your body changes, physios can help you modify work habits to reduce stress and extend your career.

If you're dealing with pain or want to stay ahead of it, we’re here to help. Call us on 9873 3333 or book online via the BodyMotion website.

As running becomes more and more popular as a sport, events have become packed with runners all seeking personal bests with either distance or time.

Sam, one of our physiotherapists, will be participating in the Run Melbourne 2025 10 km, looking to potentially run a personal best in that distance on the day. He's been slowly but consistently ramping up his training in preparation for the event, doing a mixture of high intensity interval work and base-building jogging.

For all those training for and participating in any Run Melbourne event, Sam has a strong interest in treating distance runners and helping them achieve their goals to perform their best on race day. Make sure to book in for a pre-race tune-up!

Sam is available to book on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays.

Strong joints are essential for maintaining overall mobility, balance, and functional independence. In physiotherapy, joint strength is emphasized to enhance stability, reduce the risk of injury, and support optimal movement patterns. Strengthening the muscles surrounding a joint helps to absorb impact, relieve stress on the joint surfaces, and improve alignment during activity. Regular therapeutic exercises, proper body mechanics, and joint-specific strengthening programs play a crucial role in preserving joint integrity and function, especially in individuals recovering from injury, managing arthritis, or seeking to improve athletic performance.

Here are is one effective exercise - Straight Leg Raise: for strengthening the knees

How to do it: Lie on your back with both legs straight. Tighten the thigh muscle of one straight leg and slowly lift it to the height your comfortable with. Hold for a few seconds, then slowly lower it.

Benefits: Strengthens the quadriceps without putting strain on the knee joint, ideal for early rehab.

This is a generalised exercise - of course, please book in with one of our awesome physiotherapists to get individualised treatment plans for your specific condition.
