Good afternoon everyone,

New Tool for the Tool Box!!

After a few trials, different models, different head shapes etc. We finally have a prototype design for a hand held vibration massage tool.

Say hello to the Milwaukee Fuel 12v sander, with modified massage attachment. Great thanks and appreciation go out to master 3D printer Michael Scott for his dedication to designing a sweet attachment for this powerful little device.

Vibration of tissues especially at low frequencies has been shown to increase blood flow and lymph movement through the body but also stimulate muscle and connective tissue response and stiffness. We have had good feedback and are looking to perfect the design for maximum client comfort and results, much more comfortable & effective than any percussion massage gun.

If your intrigued and curious get in touch with us or come for an appointment at the clinic and try it out first hand. It is a great addition to the tools in our tool box for helping improve your musculoskeletal aches and pains.

Jump on our website - www.newcastlemyoskeletal.com.au to make a booking, or grab us on 0401 056 009, ryan@newcastlemyoskeletal.com.au

Happy Friday!!!

Ryan

Clinic has a new name, new Look and a new location. Stayed tuned for some news everyone🥳.

06/06/2023

Attention Fortis Clients:

Due to unforeseen circumstances out of my control, Crossfit Newcastle will be ceasing trade and closing its doors.
As The Fortis Clinic operates from within the same building, this means I am having to relocate the business and close temporarily myself.

This news was only given to me at 4pm yesterday so I am very sorry for the short notice to all that visit the clinic.

Unfortunately this means, I must suspend all appointments and clinic operations from Thursday 8th June 2023 until a new place of business can be acquired.

This is not an easy situation. I am sorry to all of my clients who will be inconvenienced by this, and I am very sorry to those who have future appointments booked. I am doing my best to find a new location so that the clinic can resume trading as soon as possible.

If you have a future appointment booked I will be in touch in the coming days to update you with my situation moving forward.

Thank you to all who have supported and helped me grow the clinic into what it is today. If you are aware of suitable space that may be available please let me know, I am considering all options and will be working diligently on reopening at a new location.

Warm regards

Ryan

KNEE PAIN AAARRRGGGHHHH ! ! !

Do you or have you suffered from knee pain? Or does someone you know?

Has it been a hanging on for a while and nothing seems to last or relieve it long term?

Have you considered your knee is the joint stuck between you foot and your hip?

Do both of those work well? Load correctly? Are they impacting the transfer of force and load through the knee?

Perhaps looking at the whole leg as a unit from pelvis to foot could help come up with a solution to your pain.

Hit us up at The Fortis Clinic. We can help you relieve that nasty knee pain and come up with a solution to stop it from coming back so you can get back to running, playing and enjoying life without being held back.

At The Fortis Clinic we love what we do and we want to see you moving your best!!!

Have a great and happy Monday,

Ryan

Hi all, second blog post now up, check it out.

#2 Musculoskeletal Pain in The Modern Day

Not in a previous time in recorded history has life been for the majority of human society as easy as it is today. Technology has allowed us to flourish with effortless and minimal effort. Not only have we mastered and tamed our environment, we now don’t even have to leave the comfort of our own homes to have almost anything we want delivered directly to our doorsteps. Did somebody say…… MenuLog?

Morning everyone,

First article in an ongoing series of weekly email blasts that we send out to our customers on things we come across or that we work with in the industry that can help to help keep people educated and informed on their health and wellbeing.

This 1st article is about back pain and there is a link to the study we referenced in the article below.

Here is a snippet to the content, if you would like to become part of our mailing list. Contact me here or at info@thefortisclinic.com.au.

#1 Back pain in Physical vs Non Physical Careers

In 2016 and 2017 neck and back pain was rated the 3rd leading cause of disability worldwide. Due to its frequency and commonality in modern society it is very rare to find someone above the age of 30 who has not experienced some form of back pain at one time or another. Musculoskeletal disorders alone are the biggest single cause of incapacity to work, with back pain topping that list of disorders.

Mechanical stress and poor postural loading from occupational activities such as heavy lifting, repetitive movements and posture strain are the main back pain risk factors, however there may well be other important risk factors such as age, gender, length of employment, awareness of prevention techniques and treatment compliance.

Back pain affects many people from a wide variety of employment situations. From physical labour styled repetitive lifting, too continual typing, sitting and office orientated work. All of these types of work are physically straining and if you disagree, the workers and the science say’s otherwise.

You only need to sit at a computer for a day when it is not your normal routine to see how restricted and tight your can feel through your hips, Lower back, pelvis, Thoracic and neck region. After not moving our bodies much for 8 hours or so our muscles, tissue mobility, organ motion, even our blood oxygenation and circulation are being down regulated due to lack of movement.

The study concluded showing that different strategies are needed for different types of back pain. It also showed the importance of proper body posture, preventive techniques, reliable training and ergonomic equipment.

This particular study also highlighted that education for all workers on on how to best use their bodies for their chosen professions is a must so they can avoid inappropriate habits that may result in; Cervical, Thoracic and Lumbar pain and disfunction.

Important to not that the study also showed in both groups importance of stretching and range of motion exercises as a preferred method for back pain prevention and that it also noted an awareness for the need for regular physical activity should be enhanced as it has positive effect not only on musculoskeletal system but also on cardio-vascular system.

If neck and back pain are bothering you or you are experiencing discomfort and reduced range of motion in any area of the body now is the time to do something about it.

Book an appointment or contact us to see how we can help minimise your pain and maximise your quality of life.

Kind regards,

Ryan from The Fortis Team

Good afternoon all,

Happy Friday!!!!!

Hope the lifting of the lockdown in the NSW regions has returned some normality to everyones lives and has been a welcomed change in time for the festive season.

Cue my next Rant, please do not continue to read if my annoying dribble bores you. Sorry in advance. 😅 😂

Since my last post many things have been presented through the many clients we have had attending our clinic, but one thing that continues to arise is proprioceptive awareness ( what is this? Think eyes closed i know how to touch my nose) and the lack of STABILITY, MOBILITY & FLEXIBILITY through the joints in our bodies that not only allow us to lift or move objects in our world but also allow us to maintain our posture, position and accurate loading in the gravity. (think poor seated positions)

Sitting, standing, walking, working, breathing, heck even sleeping are all affected by gravity. The more correctly we can load our joints in the gravity means the better we can preserve our ranges of motion (ROM) and minimise our discomfort through this gravitational distortion placed on our joints and tissues.

An example I give to people often is have you ever considered the pressure and loading through your feet when say brushing your teeth? or watering the lawn? And how that loading is going into your hips and pelvis? Unfortunately for most of us this proprioceptive thought process just ins’t there and to add to this challenge our work tasks provides a great distraction with repetitive movements that makes it very difficult to discern what is the best way to hold ourselves in the gravity on a daily basis.

For all of you that will say I know I have bad posture and I do have pain and discomfort. Do you know how to correct it? Have you ever been taught? Have your ever made time to learn? If you can relate to any of these we at The Fortis Clinic can help.

Peeps this is our jam!!!

Efficiency in the gravity and minimising pain whilst maximising your function and performance is what we do. If you have aches and pains or are stiff to move let us show you how modern living is affecting your ability to maintain correct STABILITY & MOBILITY in your daily lives and how we can help you improve it.

Don’t let pain and limited ROM dominate your life, come find us in Broadmeadow where we can help you reduce your pain, increase your movement and educate you on how to improve your daily movements to maximise your body comfort so that you can enjoy life to its fullest.

This little pic below should be what we are all keeping in mind when we are looking to move and feel better.

Till next time.

Sending the good vibes,

The Fortis Team
