Another test you can try in our falls prevention series is the 30 second sit to stand test. You need a chair or bench 43-45cm high. With arms crossed you try and stand straight up and sit down again as many times as you can in 30 seconds. There are age band targets which you can find on this linkhttps://www.cdc.gov/steadi/media/pdfs/STEADI-Assessment-30Sec-508.pdf If you are below the figure for your age group then your risk of falling is increased. Donโ€™t forget to enquire about our new balance and falls prevention classes starting in November. 9284 0388

Physiotherapy has always been about helping people move better, recover from injury, and build strength. But one challenge has always been measuring strength accurately. Traditional โ€œhands-onโ€ testing gives only a rough estimate. Now, with force dynamometry via the Muscle Meter, we can precisely measure muscle force in kilograms โ€“ taking the guesswork out of your rehabilitation.

Why does this matter?
Because numbers donโ€™t lie. Data provides clarity, motivation, and a roadmap for progress:

โœ… Accurate diagnosis โ€“ By comparing your muscle strength to the other side of your body or to population norms, we can quickly identify weakness that may be contributing to pain or injury.

โœ… Personalised rehab programs โ€“ With clear data, we can design strength programs that target exactly what needs to improve โ€“ and track your gains over time.

โœ… Motivation & confidence โ€“ When you see your strength increasing in measurable numbers, itโ€™s easier to stay motivated and know your hard work is paying off.

โœ… Injury prevention โ€“ Many injuries occur when thereโ€™s an imbalance between left and right sides or between opposing muscle groups. Data testing helps us catch and address these imbalances before they cause issues.

โœ… Return-to-sport clearance โ€“ For athletes, we can now provide objective data on when itโ€™s truly safe to return to training or competition โ€“ not just relying on โ€œit feels okay.โ€

At Regenerate Physiotherapy, we pride ourselves on blending hands-on expertise with the latest technology. Our dynamometer means youโ€™re not just guessing โ€“ youโ€™re getting evidence-based care, backed by numbers.

Whether youโ€™re recovering from surgery, managing a long-term condition, or looking to optimise your athletic performance, data-driven physiotherapy ensures youโ€™re making real, measurable progress.

๐Ÿ“ Visit us in Wembley to experience the difference. Your recovery deserves more than guesswork โ€“ it deserves precision.

When should I see a Physiotherapist and when is Dr Google (or AI) enough?

Weโ€™ve all done itโ€”typed symptoms into Google or asked AI for exercises. Sometimes, this can be useful. For example, if youโ€™ve had a mild strain or a small ni**le and just want some general advice on rest, stretching, or gentle exercises, online information may point you in the right direction.

But hereโ€™s the thingโ€”real life injuries arenโ€™t always textbook.

โš ๏ธ What looks like a โ€œsimple calf strainโ€ might actually be a more serious tear, a nerve issue, or even a circulation problem. What feels like โ€œjust back painโ€ could be related to your hips, posture, or something else entirely.

This is where a Physiotherapist makes the difference.

A physio can:
๐Ÿ”น Assess and diagnose the exact problem (not just the symptom).
๐Ÿ”น Tailor treatment and exercises to your body, your lifestyle, and your goals.
๐Ÿ”น Prevent the injury from recurring or getting worse.
๐Ÿ”น Guide you safely back to work, sport, or the activities you love.

So when is it ok to Google or ask AI?
โœ… For general health information.
โœ… To learn about basic stretches or strengthening for prevention.
โœ… To understand possible causes of mild, short-lived symptoms.

When should you see a Physiotherapist?
๐Ÿ‘‰ If pain or symptoms last more than a few days.
๐Ÿ‘‰ If the pain is severe or gets worse.
๐Ÿ‘‰ If the injury is stopping you from moving normally.
๐Ÿ‘‰ If youโ€™re unsure of the cause.
๐Ÿ‘‰ If youโ€™ve tried online advice but it isnโ€™t helping.

The bottom line?
Dr Google and AI are great for curiosity. But for recovery, prevention, and peace of mindโ€”you canโ€™t beat a personalised plan from a qualified physiotherapist.

๐Ÿ“… If youโ€™re dealing with an injury or pain that isnโ€™t settling, weโ€™re here to help. Book online today and letโ€™s get you moving better, sooner. https://regeneratephysiotherapy.bookings.pracsuite.com/guest

Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS), also known as kneecap mal-tracking, is a common knee condition characterised by pain around or behind the patella (kneecap). This pain is typically aggravated by activities that involve bending the knee, such as running, jumping, squatting, or kneeling. Crepitus, or a grinding noise is a common symptom.

PFPS can be caused by various factors, including:

1. Muscle Imbalances: Weakness or imbalance in the muscles around the knee, particularly the quadriceps and hamstrings.

2. Overuse: Excessive or repetitive activities that put stress on the knee joint, such as running long distances or participating in sports with frequent knee bending with not enough recovery time in between loading session.

3. Faulty Biomechanics: Issues with the alignment or movement of the patella, leading to increased stress on the knee joint.

4. Trauma: Direct injury to the knee such as a fall onto the kneecap.

Fortunately PFPS is one of the conditions that Physiotherapists treat with great success in most cases. For most people this will involve:

1. Taping may be used to unload the patella

2. Strengthening exercises for the muscles that hold the kneecap in place (inner quads) and gluteals to improve your biomechanics

3. Massage/releasing and stretching of tight structures that are pulling the patella out of alignment (the ITB and lateral quads).

I've hurt my lower back - should I get a scan???

The first episode of lower back pain (LBP) can be very worrying. You may have had friends or family needing back surgery or know people with chronic ongoing pain. And everyone seems to want to give you advice about what to do or who to see!

The good news is most back injuries are simple injuries no different to a sprained ankle. Statistics suggest that around 90% of first episodes of LBP will get better in 6 weeks. Your Regenerate Physiotherapist will help to guide you through the initial stages and then teach you to strengthen your back to avoid recurrence.

There is usually no need to have an X-ray or any type of scan in the first 6 weeks. In fact, research would suggest that having imaging done in the first 6 weeks can be detrimental to your recovery. For example, lets pretend you are a 50 year old male who has first time back pain and attends your GP who sends you for a CT scan. Naturally the CT scan will show some normal age related change. But, the way it is described on the report can make it sound like your back is falling apart and has all sorts of degeneration when in fact the result is very normal for your age. This can create stress, reduce activity levels, as you are scared of further hurting your back, and this inhibits your recovery as a result.

Current RACGP guidelines include the following statement:

"Unnecessary diagnostic imaging causes more harm than benefit because it can result in increased costs, delays in appropriate treatment, exposure to ionising radiation and increased absence from work. It may also lead to unnecessary referrals, procedures and surgery, and is associated with higher rates of prolonged disability".

There are of course exceptions. If a patient has significant neurological signs such as weakness, sensory loss, loss of reflexes or bladder changes we may do an MRI to look for nerve root compression or spinal cord issues. If a person with back pain has a history of cancer we may need to image to exclude metastasis. Fortunately these are rare and most episodes of mechanical low back pain will heal with the right advice, exercises and with no imaging needed.

Your Physiotherapist can assess your low back pain, provide hands-on treatment where indicated and guide you on the best exercises to get you back doing what you love sooner.
