Sitting too much? Your heart might not be happy about it! 💔

A new study published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology (JACC) has found that lounging around for more than 10.6 hours a day significantly increases the risk of heart failure and cardiovascular-related death—even if you exercise regularly! 😧

Researchers tracked over 89,000 participants and found that those who exceeded this sedentary threshold had a much higher risk of heart issues, reinforcing the importance of staying active throughout the day.

The good news? Even swapping 30 minutes of sitting for light movement can reduce heart failure risk by 6% and cardiovascular mortality by 9%! Moderate-to-vigorous exercise cuts those risks even further.

At The Rehab Clinic Tuncurry, we’re all about helping you move better, feel stronger, and stay active—whether that’s through physio-led exercise, gym memberships, or personalised rehab plans.

Our clinic gym memberships give you a supportive space to move, with guidance to help you stay on track. If you need help getting started, our therapists can create a plan to build strength, improve mobility, and keep you moving safely.

Want to break free from too much sitting? Book in with our team or ask about our gym memberships today!

Lifestyle Medicine & Physiotherapy: A Holistic Approach to Health 🌿💪

Chronic conditions like diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, and mental health disorders are on the rise, often linked to lifestyle factors such as poor diet, inactivity, and stress. But what if healthcare focused on preventing and even reversing these conditions instead of just managing symptoms?

That’s where lifestyle medicine comes in. This emerging approach looks at the root causes of chronic disease—focusing on movement, nutrition, sleep, stress management, and social connection—to improve long-term health outcomes.

So, How does physiotherapy fit in?
Physios already take a whole-person approach, helping clients with exercise, behaviour change, and rehabilitation. By incorporating lifestyle medicine principles, they can:
✅ Use exercise as medicine to prevent and treat chronic diseases
✅ Help manage chronic pain, arthritis, and metabolic conditions
✅ Support mental health through movement and mind-body strategies
✅ Work within multidisciplinary teams for integrated care

At the Physio Clinic, we believe in treating more than just injuries—we help you build a healthier, more active life. Book an appointment with one of our physios today to take the first step!

This Thursday marks Beth’s last day at the front desk, and we’re feeling all the emotions! While Beth won’t be greeting you at the clinic anymore, we’re happy to share that she’ll continue to be part of our team, working behind the scenes to keep things running smoothly.

Beth has been such a valuable part of our clinic, with her exceptional customer service, incredible work ethic, and warm presence making a lasting impact on staff and clients alike. She’ll be so missed around the clinic, but we’re excited for her as she moves to Newcastle to begin the next chapter of her career and studies.

Thank you, Beth, for everything you’ve done for the clinic and for being such an important part of our team 💚💚
