Dry needling and acupuncture are often confused. They are distinct therapies with unique foundations.

Dry needling has a western medicine basis, where the principles of neurophysiology and neurochemistry explain it's effectiveness.

In contrast, acupuncture is grounded in the ancient practices of Chinese Medicine, focusing on meridian lines and Chi points to restore balance.

Shoulder blade movement and its positioning on your ribcage are crucial for maintaining healthy and functional shoulder activity.

At Physiotherapy for Women, we often see winging shoulder blades in women experiencing shoulder and mid-back pain. This may be a sign of muscle weakness, causing the inner edge of the blade to lift away from the thorax.

Our skilled physiotherapists will assess specific muscle weaknesses and tailor exercises to enhance your shoulder strength and function.

Sciatica is that nagging pain that travels along the sciatic nerve, stretching from your lower back, through the hips and buttocks, all the way down each leg. It’s not a condition in itself but a symptom that signals something isn't quite right.
This discomfort often stems from irritation or compression of the sciatic nerve. Fortunately, physiotherapy offers a pathway to relief! With effective pain management techniques, manual therapy, tailored exercise programs, postural education, and ergonomic insights, you can reclaim your comfort.
Most individuals experience significant improvement within 4-6 weeks of consistent physiotherapy. However, if your symptoms worsen, you don’t see any progress after several weeks, or if you notice neurological signs, it’s crucial to consult a doctor for further evaluation.

Absolutely not! A tummy separation known as diastasis recti can persist well into a woman's postnatal years and beyond. This gap isn’t exclusive to moms; it can also affect women who haven’t experienced pregnancy and even men.
Improper exercise techniques can lead to uneven distribution of intra-abdominal pressure, straining the central abdominal line.
For postnatal women, mastering deep abdominal and pelvic floor muscle exercises is essential to restore appropriate tension across the tummy. For expert guidance and advice, connect with skilled physiotherapists who work exclusively in this area.
Call 08 8443 3355 to consult with a physiotherapist focused on the needs of pregnant and postnatal women.
