Today we’re saying farewell for now and "see you soon” (not goodbye!) to our incredible physio, Kadell, as he heads off on an exciting three-and-a-half-month adventure. ✈️🌏

We feel incredibly lucky that even while Kadell is off exploring, he remains very much part of the TLC team. Once his holiday part of his travels pauses, he’ll be continuing to work with us remotely, and we couldn’t be happier to get to continue to have him part of our team!

While Kadell won’t be in the clinic over the coming months, his clients are in very good hands and he has set our team up for every success. In true Kadell fashion, as he has done consistently for the past 3.5 years since he joined our team, he has put an enormous amount of care into every aspect of his role as physiotherapist, clinical supervisor, social media whizz, and absolutely amazing colleague, making sure every client is well support, with thorough handovers to our wonderful clinicians and admin team, and plenty of planning behind the scenes to make the transition as smooth as possible for our clients and our team.

Kadell, we hope you have the most amazing time. Enjoy every minute, make plenty of memories, and know that your TLC family will be following along, cheering you on from Cairns.

We’re so grateful to have you as part of our team, even from the other side of the world! 💜🩵

See the summary of what matters the most to have a meaningful impact with your strength training.

A multidisciplinary approach is best! Reach out for further information or bookings.

Exercise rehab for quadricep strains 📈💪

Quadricep, and more specifically re**us femoris strains, are one of the most common strains to occur within football (soccer).

This is due to the combined high load of the kicking action, and sprinting/accelerations.

They're also an injury with a high recurrence rate - meaning once you'd had one, you're chances of having another are much higher.

If you've had a strain, consider seeking a professional opinion and completing proper rehab.

Things to consider:
1. General quadricep strength - targetted with strengthening exercises such as squats
2. Strength through length - exposing the muscle to high forces in a stretched position, such as in a reverse nordic
3. Running and sprint exposure - a crucial element before return to sport
4. Power development and rapid movments - such as a box jump.

The exercises relevant for you will depend on your injury, your stage of rehab and many other factors.

If you want to learn more, make a booking or head to our website to read Kate's blog on re**us femoris strains in football! ⚽️

Chronic back pain is complex! There is emerging evidence that reveals the extent to which our whole-body health and lifestyle plays a role in how we feel pain.

This new research found associations between the gut microbiome (how healthy our gut environment is) and back pain/inflammation.

This is one example of many, that show the importance of a holistic approach to chronic back pain - including diet, lifestyle factors, sleep & exercise.

If you have chronic back pain and want to learn more, reach out to make a booking or get in contact with our team.
