The moment you’ve been waiting for! 🎬

In Part 1, we showed how a weak foot was causing a chain reaction all the way up to his spine. So, how did we fix it?

Swipe through to see the exact treatment plan to rebuild the foundation from the ground up! 👇

We started by releasing the stiffness in his right foot with hands-on manual therapy. Then, we moved to the most important part: strengthening. We prescribed specific exercises to wake up the arch muscles and build lasting stability.

The result? He regained natural rotation in his spine and a more efficient walking pattern. This is the power of addressing the root cause! ✨

Your body is a connected system. Don’t just chase the pain—fix the foundation.

At PhysioMotion, we don’t just treat injuries—we build movement strategies to prevent them. 💪

The Romanian Deadlift (RDL) is a cornerstone exercise in many of our rehab and strength programs. Here’s why our clinicians value it:

✨ Targeted Rehabilitation: It’s exceptionally effective for eccentrically strengthening the hamstrings, a key factor in treating and preventing strains.
✨ Joint Stability: By activating the gluteus maximus and medius, it builds a stable foundation for the hips and knees, crucial for athletes and everyday movement.
✨ Core Integration: This movement challenges the entire posterior chain and core to work in synergy, promoting a healthy, resilient spine.
✨ Movement Education: It teaches the essential hip hinge pattern, empowering our clients to lift safely in their daily lives.

The Expert Technique (The DOs):
To get the benefits without the risk, our clinicians cue these key steps:
✅ Initiate with the Hips: Push your hips straight back towards the wall behind you. This is a hinge, not a squat.
✅ Maintain a Neutral Spine: Keep your back naturally straight from your head to your tailbone. Imagine balancing a glass of water on your lower back.
✅ Keep the Bar Close: Drag the weight (dumbbell or bar) close to your legs, tracking straight up and down.
✅ Soft Knees: Maintain a slight, soft bend in your knees throughout the movement. Do not lock them out.
✅ Feel the Stretch: Lower only until you feel a deep stretch in your hamstrings, not until your form breaks.

Proper form is everything. The key is a neutral spine and feeling the stretch in the hamstrings, not how much weight you can lift.

Squat like a Pro, not a Patient. 🏋️‍♂️✅❌

Your form is everything. Here’s my quick physio breakdown to keep your knees and back safe:

✅ DO:
→ Lower down with hips & knees together.
→ Keep your chest up & spine long.
→ Push knees out over your toes.
→ Drive through your whole foot.

❌ DON’T:
→ Hinge too early (like a deadlift).
→ Let knees cave inward.
→ Round your lower back.
→ Hyperextend (over-arch) your low back.
→ Let heels lift off the ground/ Too much weight on the toes.

Quality over quantity! Pain isn’t normal. Get your form assessed.

Struggling with Abdominal Pelvic Dysfunction (APD)? Try Diaphragmatic Breathing Retraining to improve breath-pelvic floor coordination! 🌬️✨

How: Lie on your back, knees bent. Inhale deeply—expand your rib cage while relaxing your pelvic floor (visualize it descending). Exhale fully, gently engaging your pelvic floor (like a slow Kegel).

Why: This helps retrain the brain-muscle connection, promoting better function & relief.

If APD is impacting your life, don’t wait—book a physiotherapy consultation today! Let’s work together toward better pelvic health. 💙

Yesterday’s sharing session with Yetta, our inspiring physiotherapist and former eating disorder survivor, was a profound success! 🎉 A huge thank you to all the staff and F5 students who made this event possible—your support and engagement truly made a difference.

Yetta bravely shared her personal journey, detailing her struggles with an eating disorder and how she overcame it.

Did you know? Multidisciplinary (MDT) approach needed to address both the physical and psychological aspects of recovery. Research shows that 40% of women with anorexia experience urinary incontinence compared to healthy individuals.

As a pelvic health physiotherapist, Yetta emphasized her crucial role in helping patients:
✔️ Restore physical health & mobility
✔️ Reconnect with their bodies
✔️ Manage chronic pain
✔️ Rebuild a healthy relationship with exercise to prevent relapse

Grateful for such an eye-opening and empowering discussion! Let’s continue raising awareness and supporting those on their recovery journey. 💜
