Learning never stops at Red Centre Health Focus!

Recently, our team got together for some hands-on professional development with our Women's Health Physiotherapist, Brianna, exploring the use of diagnostic ultrasound in pelvic floor assessment.

It was a fantastic opportunity to learn more about how ultrasound technology can be used to observe pelvic floor muscle function and movement in a non-invasive way. The session sparked plenty of discussion and curiosity.

We're passionate about continuing to develop our skills and knowledge so we can offer evidence-informed physiotherapy services to our community.

A big thank you to Brianna for sharing her expertise and helping the team build confidence in this valuable assessment tool. 👏

Some of the team are now equipped for assessment of pelvic floor muscle function with diagnostic ultrasound!

Want to give your muscles a boost without extra gym time? The Compex muscle stimulator uses electrical impulses to activate deep muscle fibres, helping increase strength, improve endurance, and speed up recovery – perfect for athletes and rehab alike!

Recent studies show that regular use of devices like Compex can significantly improve muscle strength and reduce recovery time. For example, a 2025 study highlights how EMS helps reduce muscle soreness by improving blood circulation and promoting metabolic waste removal, accelerating recovery after exercise (Patel et al., 2025).

Whether you’re bouncing back from injury or looking for that performance edge, Compex could be the game-changer you need. Always check with your health professional to see if EMS is right for you.

What a great day out at the footy!

Recently, some of our team headed along to the AFL game here in Alice Springs, and as always, it was an incredible day for our community. There's something special about seeing people of all ages come together to enjoy the game, cheer on their teams, and soak up the atmosphere.

As proud sponsors and physiotherapy providers for the AFL NT Academy, we were excited to spot our signage around the ground. Even better? Catching a glimpse of it during the national TV broadcast!

It’s one of those little "pinch me" moments that reminds us how lucky we are to be involved in supporting local athletes and programs that create opportunities for young people across the Territory.

We love the energy, connection, and joy that AFL brings to Alice Springs, and we're proud to play a small part in helping keep our community active, healthy, and moving.

Did you spot us on TV? 👀🏉

Did you know that with a Medicare Chronic Disease Management plan, you can access subsidised physiotherapy sessions? If you have a chronic condition or complex care needs, your GP can help you get a referral that allows you to claim rebates for physiotherapy treatments. This makes our expert care more affordable and accessible for you.

Physiotherapy can assist in managing pain, improving mobility, and enhancing your quality of life. We work closely with your GP to provide a tailored treatment plan that supports your health goals.

Ask us or your GP how to get started with Medicare referrals and take a proactive step in your recovery or ongoing health management.

Pelvic floor physiotherapy assessments don’t always have to be invasive.

At Red Centre Health Focus, we use diagnostic ultrasound as a non-invasive tool to help assess pelvic floor muscle function, movement, and coordination in real time.

Using ultrasound imaging, we can observe how the pelvic floor muscles respond during contraction, relaxation, breathing, and functional movements. This can be particularly helpful for people who may feel uncomfortable with an internal examination, are experiencing pain, are early postpartum, or simply prefer an alternative assessment option.

A 2021 study published on PubMed found transabdominal ultrasound assessment of pelvic floor muscle contraction demonstrated excellent intra-rater reliability, with ICC values of 0.97–0.98 during contraction assessment (PMID: 3449). Additional 2021 research also supported ultrasound as a reliable method for pelvic floor muscle evaluation and rehabilitation guidance.

Importantly, internal examination remains the gold standard for assessing pelvic floor muscle strength, tone, and tissue function. However, diagnostic ultrasound provides a valuable non-invasive option that can still offer meaningful information to help guide assessment, education, and rehabilitation when internal examination is not appropriate or preferred.

Every assessment is individualised, and we work collaboratively with you to ensure you feel comfortable, informed, and supported throughout the process.

If you’d like to learn more about pelvic floor physiotherapy or whether diagnostic ultrasound may be suitable for you, feel free to contact us at [email protected]

Knowing what to watch for can make all the difference.
