Physiotherapy for Pregnancy

Pregnancy places incredible demands on your body — and physiotherapy can help you feel stronger, more supported, and better prepared for birth and recovery.

During pregnancy, physio can help with:
· Lower back, hip or pelvic pain from postural changes and growing load
· Pelvic girdle pain or instability caused by increased laxity of ligaments caused by hormonal changes
· Rib and upper back tightness from changes in breathing and posture
· Pelvic floor awareness and strength to support delivery and reduce issues like incontinence
· Safe, trimester-specific exercise advice

After pregnancy, physio is just as important:
· Abdominal separation (diastasis recti) recovery
· Pelvic floor rehab for weakness, heaviness or incontinence
· Postural pain from feeding, lifting and holding your baby
· Guided return to movement and exercise, safely and with confidence

Every pregnancy and recovery journey is unique — we’re here to support you at every stage 💛

What causes an ACL injury? 🤔🦵

Your ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) is a key stabiliser in the knee — and it’s especially vulnerable during fast, high-impact movements.

Most ACL injuries happen during sport — but surprisingly, many are non-contact and caused by poor movement mechanics and female athletes are more at risk, due to biomechanics and neuromuscular control differences.

Here are the top causes of ACL injuries:
⚡️ Sudden changes in direction or pivoting
🛑 Abrupt stopping or slowing down
⛷️ Landing awkwardly from a jump
❌ Poor strength or control through hips, glutes & core
🧠 Fatigue or poor technique under pressure

The good news? ACL injuries can be prevented — and if you’ve had one, recovery is absolutely possible with the right plan.

At Flex Sports Physio, we assess how you move, build strength, and guide you from injury prevention through to full recovery.

📍 Book in with our team if you're experiencing knee pain — or help to reduce the risk of ACL injuries.

🤲 Manual Therapy vs Exercise Therapy – What’s the Difference?

At Flex Sports Physiotherapy, we use both manual therapy and exercise therapy to help you recover faster and move better. Here's what they include and what they are used for:

Manual Therapy
✅ Hands-on techniques (massage, joint mobilisations, dry needling)
✅ Reduces pain, releases tight muscles, improves mobility
✅ Great for early-stage recovery or when movement is limited

Exercise Therapy
✅ Targeted exercises to build strength, flexibility, and control
✅ Helps correct movement patterns and prevent re-injury
✅ Key for long-term results and performance

Used together, they deliver the best outcomes—relieve pain, restore function, and get you back to doing what you love.
