WORLD PHYSIOTHERAPY DAY
Proud to be part of a profession that makes a difference in people’s lives - restoring movement, increasing confidence through addressing pain and movement restrictions. Rehabilitation back to previous levels of functioning. Giving hope and reducing fear through education. Sometimes it is giving a word of encouragement, a hug, a listening ear. We give a lot of ourselves emotionally. But it is such a rewarding occupation! I thank God that I am able to do this!

You and your ‘CORE’
Take home message from me - there is no ONE exercise to fix a back. Move your body!

There still is way too much focus on core exercises when you have back pain

These are said to reduce pain, improve stability, and prevent reoccurrence better than other exercises or treatments!

But yet again despite common assumptions there is no evidence that they do any of these things

Thats not to say they are any worse than other exercises, but bird dogs, planks or pilates are NOT your only options if you’ve got back issues!

Shoulder painful arc syndrome
(Previously often refered to as impingement syndrome)

Refers to shoulder pain usually between 60-120 degr of shoulder elevation.
You may have night pain - often from sleeping on that shoulder. With passive elevation, there is no pain.
Common causes: rotator cuff tendinopathy/tear, bursitis, calcific tendonitis, AC joint pathology.

Consult with your physiotherapist of you have these symptoms for treatment options during the acute, sub-acute and later stages of these symptoms.
