Still doing that same stretch for your lower back pain… and wondering why it’s not working?
Here’s the truth:There is no single stretch or exercise that can fix chronic pain - especially in the lower back.
Why?Because real healing needs a personalised, whole-body approach.
👉 Core stability
👉 Postural balance
👉 Nervous system retraining
👉 Daily habits
👉 And a deep understanding of your body
That’s why we start with assessment - not assumptions.
Your back pain isn’t a random event.It’s a pattern your body has learned… and it can unlearn it too.

1. Get clear on your length tension relationships. Essentially what muscles are tight and which are loose.2. Get your Core working optimally. 3. Create an exercise program that will support your work or sports environment. 4. (Not mentioned in the video) Eat clean organic foods to your body’s needs. The less inflammation there is the better your body will move and operate and you’ll have more energy. Ditch the protein bars and shakes! Reference: “How to eat move and be healthy” from the . Find a CHEK certified coach in your area as they are taught assessments and programming to a deep level. Have you ever assessed your own body and programmed accordingly?

A quick mini assessment for you to witness how I look at clients when they come in with various musculoskeletal issues.

Jordiee informed me that she had some left Achilles tendinitis so I wanted to have a brief look at what may potentially be influencing this.

After this short look from the standing position I’d have a look at how her body responds on the massage table using a comparative range of motion as well as looking at multiple movement patterns.

A quote I always tell myself is “where the pain is, the problem is not” - as the pain is almost always just a symptom of dysfunction happening elsewhere.

In this one the most critical findings were the scoliosis in the spine and her anterior pelvic tilt which can manifest as pain below in the ankle joint.

Our assessment is normally 2 hours long so be mindful I tried to be quick for you guys here!

The good news is these are all correctable with specific stretches and exercises!

If you’re looking to have a deeper underunderstanding of your body and what may be affecting your performance, feel free to reach out.

Today marks the end of an era.

Horizons of Health is leaving the Gold Coast and today was the last day .

We ended the day with a session with Scott’s dad, who has been our longest client after recently notching past 100 sessions (go dad!).

His efforts and commitment has been second to none. Always practising his exercises at home and showing remarkable improvement. We’ve gone a long way from doing sessions in our spare room to using this facility and moving into strength and performance training.

And of course it has been a great bonding opportunity ❤️

So lots of emotions in the family as we move to the Sunshine Coast this weekend. We are so grateful for everyone’s support we’ve received on the Gold Coast, for our mentors, family, friends, clients and more.

And very grateful for for having us at your beautiful space. Anyone up Arundel should check it out!

We can’t wait to share with you all our next chapter. But for now time to reflect and celebrate 🥂

IF YOU’RE A WOMAN AND TRAINING THE SAME WAY AS A MAN - you’re doing it wrong!

Did you know there are a number of considerations we must take when working with females for rehabilitation and strength training?

Posturally - women are more susceptible to forward head posture and a rounded upper back. This is due to longer hair, weaker neck extensors and the extra weight at the front pulling the shoulders forward. You must be particularly cautious to not do exercises that exacerbate this.

Hormonally, women have a monthly cycle which changes greatly week to week. During menstruation it’s important to listen to your body and give it the rest it needs as this is a time where your body is shifting and resetting. Failure to do so may result in injury.

During ovulation, Estrogen is generally higher which is a better time for higher energy output based activities. Of course always listen to your body, your conditioning level and push yourself without extreme demand.

There are many more factors we must consider to effectively program exercise for females, these are just a few. Remember to listen in, play with movement, have fun and rest when you need.
