Lumbar stress fractures are becoming more common in cricket, especially for fast bowlers who put a lot of strain on their lower back. Healing usually takes between 6 to 12 weeks or more, depending on how severe the injury is and how your body responds.

Rest is important, but so is a rehab program that focuses on strengthening your core, managing your workload, and gradually getting you back to bowling safely. Catching it early and following a tailored plan can make all the difference in preventing further problems. 🏏🦴

If you need help this cricket season, give us a call at 9873 3333 or book an appointment through the BodyMotion website, we’re here to support your recovery!

Ankle sprains are a common injury in cricket, often resulting from sudden direction changes, jumping, or uneven landings. Recovery typically takes between 4 to 12 weeks, depending on the severity and grade of the sprain.

While pain and swelling may subside early, proper rehabilitation including mobility, balance, and strengthening exercises is essential to restore full function and prevent recurrence. A structured recovery plan supports a safer and more effective return to play. 🏏🦶

If you're seeking support this cricket season, we welcome you to call us on 9873 3333 or book an appointment online through the BodyMotion website.

Ice or heat: which should you use for an injury?

❄️ Use ice for acute injuries such as sprains, strains, or any injury that has occurred within the last 72 hours. If there is swelling, inflammation, or bruising, ice is typically the best option. It helps reduce blood flow to the area, limits swelling, and provides pain relief.

Always use a towel or cloth between the ice and your skin to prevent ice burns. Apply for 15 to 20 minutes at a time, allowing at least an hour between applications.

🔥 Use heat for chronic pain or muscle tightness where there is no swelling. Heat increases blood flow, improves tissue flexibility, and helps reduce muscle tension. It can be helpful for conditions such as back or neck stiffness, arthritis, or long-standing muscle aches.

Use a warm (not hot) heat pack or hot water bottle wrapped in a towel. Apply for 15 to 20 minutes and avoid using heat on any recent injuries.

General rule: use ice for swelling and heat for stiffness.
If you are unsure which is right for your injury, speak to one of our physiotherapists to get individual advice!

🧠 Myth vs Fact: Understanding Physiotherapy

❌ Myth: Physiotherapy is only for people recovering from sports injuries or surgery.
✅ Fact: While physiotherapists do play a key role in rehabilitation, their expertise goes far beyond just injury recovery.

Physiotherapy also addresses chronic pain management, posture correction, mobility and flexibility improvement, and even preventative care to support your long-term health. Whether you're dealing with recurring discomfort, looking to improve your movement and physical function, or simply aiming to prevent future issues then physiotherapy can help.

It’s not just reactive care — it’s proactive, personalised support for your overall well-being.

Understanding the Difference: Acute vs. Chronic Injuries

An acute injury happens suddenly often from a fall, twist, or impact (like a sprained ankle or muscle strain).
On the other hand, a chronic injury develops over time, usually from overuse or damaging movement habits (such as lower back pain).

Early assessment and treatment can prevent long-term issues. Let our team at BodyMotion help you recover properly and get back to doing what you love.

📅 Book online via our website or call us on 9873 3333 to schedule your appointment.

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 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.
