See this a lot in clinic with runners and regular walkers! Even though we treat the calcified tendon with shockwave very successfully, there is always an underlying root cause of instability, SI joint dysfunction and weak intrinsic core. There’s so much more to it than rolling out deep gluts, ITB ( never btw! 😱) and doing some stability exercises. Diagnosis of driver is 🔑! Locally treating specific area and muscle imbalances with hands on and modality techniques, then specific muscle balancing correctives/sports conditioning strength training.

Gluteal Tendinopathy can present with back and leg symptoms. A careful history and thorough examination can help confirm the diagnosis.

Don’t take our word for it… take theirs. 😉

Around here, movement speaks louder than words.

And our people leave some pretty amazing ones behind.

Every Google review feels like a little cheer from the sidelines reminding us why we do what we do: helping humans move, heal, and feel their best.

💛 To everyone who’s taken a minute to hype us up - thank you.

You’re the reason Deep Physio is more than a clinic… it’s a community.

Your arches didn’t exactly sign up for pregnancy… but here we are. 👣🤰

During pregnancy, your body changes in ways you expect (hello, bump) and ways you don’t (like your arches flattening thanks to hormones + extra weight).

When those arches drop, the ripple effect travels north:
⚡ Knees cave in
⚡ Hips rotate differently
⚡ Low back takes the load

Translation? More aches and fatigue in your legs, hips, and back - right when comfort matters most.

One simple daily habit that helps: foot rolling.

1️⃣ Ball or frozen water bottle under your foot
2️⃣ Roll heel to toes, pausing on tender spots
3️⃣ Repeat 1 - 2 minutes per foot

Pair it with gentle core activation and you’ve just given your feet the backup they need.

Because strong, mobile feet aren’t just about happy arches; they’re about keeping your whole body supported. 💛

At Deep Physio, we’ve got your back (and your feet, and your hips) with pregnancy-safe care from the first trimester through postpartum.

Harvest takes muscle. But it doesn’t have to take you out. 🚜

For years, the mindset was: “pain’s just part of the job.”

Long tractor hours, heavy lifting, and sore backs were worn like a badge of honour.

But here’s the truth… pain doesn’t make you tougher. It just makes the season harder.

More and more farmers are realizing physio isn’t about sitting on the sidelines.

It’s about:
✅ Loosening stiff shoulders
✅ Easing sciatic pain from tractor hours
✅ Building back + core strength to keep going
✅ Preventing injuries before they stop you cold

Staying strong through harvest doesn’t mean pushing through pain.

It means getting the right care so you can work hard and feel good doing it.

📍 Deep Physio has your back (literally).

Surprise! Your shoulder pain might not actually be a shoulder problem. 🤯

At Deep Physio, we don’t just chase pain. We dig deeper to find the driver - the real reason your body is moving (or not moving) the way it does.

That’s why you might come in for your shoulder… but leave with your diaphragm, hips, or even your feet getting all the attention. Because the body isn’t built in parts, it’s built as a team.

And when one player’s slacking, the whole squad feels it.

✨Our job? Find the driver. Treat the root. Get you moving better, not just masking symptoms.

Not all braces are created equal… and this one’s the gold standard. 🦵✨

Whether you’re an athlete, on the job site, or just trying to get through your day without your knee yelling at you, braces are built to keep you moving.

✅ Stability without locking you down
✅ Lightweight, breathable, built-to-last design

From knees to ankles (and elbows + wrists too), these braces give you backup so your joints can keep doing their thing.

Available now at Deep Physio - and yes, we’ll fit you properly so you’re not stuck guessing sizes. 💪

Parents, ever catch yourself imitating your teen’s posture… and then realize you can’t stand back up?

We get it - nagging doesn’t work. But sneaky little upgrades do.

Here are 5 ways to help your teen swap the slump for strength (without the eye-rolls):

1️⃣ Tech Neck Reset: screen at eye level = less zombie scroll, more stacked spine.
2️⃣ Backpack Fit Check: two straps. Snug. Heaviest books close to the spine.
3️⃣ Chair Power Position: feet flat, knees 90°, screen at eye level.
4️⃣ Movement Break Rule: stand up + stretch every 30–45 min.
5️⃣ Copy & Compete: do it with them. Winner = bragging rights.

Better posture = better focus, better performance, less pain.

No nagging, no “sit up straight” speeches. Just small subtle habits that stick.

Here at Deep Physio, we help teens (and parents) move better, feel better, and yes - sit up straighter. Call us to book an appointment for yourself or your slouchy teen at home. 😉
