I often find myself repeating these things in the clinic, some of which may surprise you (2 and 6?) 😯

Ouch! 😲 That's got to hurt!

I have had the privilege of assisting this young athlete on his journey after breaking his clavicle and undergoing surgical repair.

Fun fact: they don't always surgically repair broken clavicles! Every case is different but for this patient, a surgical repair was decided on given the young man's promising Judo career ahead.

Another fun fact: a fracture is often written as a hashtag ( #) in medical shorthand!

I'm very happy with how he is progressing 12 weeks post surgery- full range of motion, and gaining functional strength already 💪🏼 Super excited to give him the green light to go back to Judo 🙌🏼

One of my favourite things to do as a physio is to help people return to doing what they love the most!

If you or someone you know is scheduled to have a hip or knee replacement surgery, it's vitally important that you receive the right post-operative care? ✅

Not every hospital automatically refers patients to a physiotherapist upon discharge, so it's crucial to take the initiative and schedule an appointment with a physiotherapist within the first week after the surgery 📆

This way, you can start your recovery journey promptly, rather than waiting for six weeks or more...

Rest assured, we won't push you into intense exercises right away 🙅🏼‍♀️

Instead, we can assist with managing swelling, early range of motion exercises, gait normalisation, assistance with walking aids, and gradually introducing appropriate graded exposure and exercise rehabilitation 👌🏼

We have helped tons of people with hip and knee replacements and we've consistently observed that those who start their rehabilitation early achieve the best and fastest results while avoiding setbacks in their recovery process ✅✅✅

We also know that often people won't take the initiative to book themselves in right away thinking that the surgery is done and so they will be fine....only to find they are still having issues down the track due to improper post-operative management 😔

So if a loved one of yours is scheduled to have a surgery, and you want to ensure best outcomes for them, then please encourage them to book in with us 🤗 We will do our best to take care of them! 👐🏼

I was shocked! 😱

Once I treated a man in his 90's and it was his FIRST EVER physio appointment!!

I did let him know he has had a very good run, injury-wise! 🏃🏼‍♂️

Safe to say, within a few sessions he was back being pain-free and active again! 🙌🏼✅

But it did make me realise that many people have never seen a physio, and have no idea what goes on at an appointment 🧐

Let me explain what happens, particularly in your first physio visit 👇🏼

👉🏼 𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐮𝐩, 𝐲𝐨𝐮'𝐥𝐥 𝐟𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐚 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦.
This helps us get to know your relevant medical history, your physical activity profile and your specific goals for seeing a physio.

👉🏼 𝐍𝐞𝐱𝐭, 𝐰𝐞 𝐚𝐬𝐤 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚 𝐛𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐡 𝐨𝐟 𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬.
This helps us form a 'hypothesis' as to what the problem could be.

👉🏼 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐰𝐞 𝐝𝐨 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐩𝐡𝐲𝐬𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐬.
This is unique to every person and injury. We need to conduct a physical assessment to test our hypothesis.

👉🏼 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐰𝐞 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 & 𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮
From our assessments, we explain our findings and together we work out what the best plan of action is, starting right away! This usually involves some kind of manual therapy to immediately help reduce your pain (hands-on techniques, gliding joints, massaging muscles, dry needling, theragun, assisted movements etc.)

👉🏼 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐰𝐞 𝐠𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 (𝐬𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐨𝐟)
We let you know how to best manage your condition outside of the physio clinic. This can include lifestyle modifications and exercise prescription to rehabilitate your ache/pain/injury and help prevent it from coming back.

And there you have it! What happens at your first physio appointment with us. Of course, every assessment and treatment is tailored 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗱𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝗶𝗻-𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲👌🏼

So if you want to experience this for yourself then book in today!

Do you experience pain in your upper back between your shoulder blades? 😣

That pesky nagging ache that no one can put their finger on! (except for a skilled clinician 😉)

Did you know that the area of pain isn't always where the problem is? 😯

It's our job as physios to play detective and find out where the likely source of pain is coming from! 🧐

Some likely sources for this area of pain:
👉🏼 Scapulothoracic muscles
👉🏼 Thoracic facet joints
👉🏼 Thoracic discs
👉🏼 And even the neck can refer to this area (and is commonly missed in this presentation!)

🧠⚡️ Plus, in all cases the nervous system plays a big role in your pain and recovery!

What's important is that you get an individualised assessment and treatment from a qualified physiotherapist who can help identify the source of the pain, reduce or eliminate it, and give you advice on how you can prevent it from reoccurring.

I love it when I check the PhysiApp on my end and see people completing their rehab programs! 💪🏼

And yes, I can see when you've been on there! 👀

✅ Home exercise is an integral part of your pain/injury rehab, and you'll see quicker results if you stick to the plan!

I use a program called "PhysiApp", which is easily accessible via desktop or mobile app so you can complete your exercises anytime, anywhere.

Every client at Transition Physio gets a tailored program to suit your individual needs and diagnosis.

Do you have pain or injuries that you want sorted?

🏃🏻Call 0414169266 or book online at www.transitionphysio.com.au

Do you have:
🦶🏼 Heel pain on one or both sides
🦶🏼 Heel pain first thing in the morning
🦶🏼 Heel pain during the first few steps of walking after sitting for a while
🦶🏼 Heel pain when barefoot or on hard surfaces
🦶🏼 Tight/stiff ankles

🧐 You might have Plantar Fasciitis!

Plantar Fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain. Approximately one in ten people will experience Plantar Fasciitis in their lifetime.

Despite the ‘itis’ in the name (which usually means inflammatory), the condition is not usually inflammatory and is sometimes called Plantar Fasciopathy instead by therapists.

You might be at risk of developing Plantar Fasciitis if you have poor ankle mobility, increased BMI, or stand for prolonged periods of time. It also tends to be more common in runners.

Most people with Plantar Fasciitis will improve within 12 months but there are some things you could be doing to help your body speed up the recovery process.

Whilst there are some common treatments, I like to assess people individually to make sure we are addressing your specific limitations which we discover in your first appointment...
