Falls prevention

As we age falls prevention is crucial in staying healthy in our later years. At least one in four older people have a fall each year and around 10% of all falls result in serious injury requiring hospitalisation. Injuries sustained can include bruising, lacerations, fractures and head injuries.

Falls can be caused by a number of factors including; loss of balance, dizziness, poor eyesight, poor footwear or trip hazards. Poor hydration, alcohol consumption or taking more than five medications can also contribute to falling.

Physiotherapists can tailor exercise programs specifically for each client to improve their leg strength, mobility and balance. Regular exercise is a great way to help prevent falls at home and in the community. Get started today to maintain your independence at home by calling 0477 934 546

Physiotherapy during pregnancy

Your first pregnancy and the early months after delivering your first child can be an exciting time. What most first time Mums don't expect is the aches and pains that go along with it!

During pregnancy the hormone relaxin is released into the body causing a softening of the ligaments. This is essential to allow for the baby to pass through the birth canal. Unfortunately a the side effects can be back pain, sacroiliac painor pubic symphysis pain.

Physiotherapists can help you correctly diagnose the source of your pain, treat the underlying structures causing the pain and develop strategies to prevent recurrence during the remaining weeks before birth.

Physiotherapists are also highly skilled in educating you regarding the activation of pelvic floor muscles and developing exercise programs to ensure the pelvic floor stays strong during and after pregnancy.

Let us take away your pain so you can enjoy the special months leading up to your latest arrival.
