Now the work year is winding down, many of our clients are looking to spend more time on the golf course. We have a few tips to help avoid back, shoulder and wrist pain.

Footwear: wear suitable shoes to help with stability and help avoid twisting the back and hips.
Pre and Post Golf warm up: spend 2-3 minutes minutes warming up and down by stretching hamstring, quads, chest and shoulders.
Golf Bag: when picking up your golf bag, be mindful how you do and remember to bend from the knees.
Practice: Injuries can occur from turning up with no practice or experience. Try to fit in some 9 hole rounds, invest in some lessons or visit the driving range to help with fitness.

Enjoy your summer of golf and remember we are here to help if any issues arise.

Climbing requires strength, agility and mobility in order to move from hold to hold effectively.

Osteopathic treatment can help with injuries or imbalances in your joints, muscles, ligaments and nerves, can reduce pain and discomfort, and speed up recovery from injury. Osteopaths use gentle but direct techniques to increase joint mobility and muscle flexibility.

Sprains are a very common issue that osteopaths treat.

An ankle sprain involves damage to the ankle ligaments and tendons, typically caused by simple sudden traumatic incidents, such as rolling or twisting the ankle.

Your osteopath can assist in the rehabilitation of an ankle sprain with soft tissue treatment to promote optimal stability and range of motion. They will also usually prescribe mobility exercises to restore the normal range of motion to the foot and ankle.

As young female bodies mature, hormonal changes can cause pain, stress and discomfort. Often the symptoms and discomfort increase as we then transition through perimenopause and menopause.

Osteopathic treatments can target multiple organs and structural components affected by menstrual disorders. It is a holistic and gentle way to ease tension, maintain strong mobility and assist in alleviating menstrual-related discomfort.

To find out more, read our blog on hormonal health at https://osteo.co.nz/hormones/

A long weekend is not far away.

With next Friday being Canterbury Anniversary Day, we won't have as many appointments available as usual.

Along with going to the races or taking in the sights and sounds of the A & P Show, it could be a good time to book an appointment.
