Pain is not just about tissues - it also involves the nervous system. 🧠

Your body has specialised sensors called nociceptors. These receptors detect potential threats such as pressure, inflammation, or extreme temperatures. Signals travel through the spinal cord to the brain, where the brain decides whether to create the experience of pain.

This system is designed to protect you. Touch something hot and you immediately pull your hand away 👍 - a fast, helpful response.

But sometimes the system becomes a little overprotective. After injury or ongoing stress, the nervous system can remain more sensitive than usual.

This means pain does not always equal damage. The tricky part is that it can be hard to tell the difference.

If you are living with ongoing pain and cannot find a clear cause, our physiotherapists can help you better understand what may be driving it.

Call 6282 5898 (Deakin) or 6254 9889 (Kippax) to make an appointment and start getting some answers. 📞

Your calves do more work than you think. Every step, every climb, every run. 🦵

Exercise of the month: Standing calf raises

Rise onto your toes, pause briefly at the top, then lower slowly.
Behind this small movement are two hard-working muscles: the gastrocnemius and the soleus. Together they power push-off when you walk, help stabilise the ankle, and absorb force with every step.

That slow lowering phase is where the magic happens. It loads the Achilles tendon and the plantar fascia – the strong band of tissue under your foot. Controlled loading helps these tissues adapt, which is why calf raises (often performed off a stair) commonly appear in rehabilitation programs for plantar fasciitis.

Simple exercise. Clever biomechanics.

Do calf raises already feature in your workouts?
Drop a 👍 if they do, or a 👣 if you might give them a try.

Or call 6282 5898 (Deakin) or 6254 9889 (Kippax) to book an appointment. 📞

Slow and steady wins the race… but sometimes you need to sprint for the last Tim Tam. 🍫🏃

Your muscles contain different fibre types, each with their own job.

Type I fibres, often called slow-twitch fibres, support endurance. They contract slowly and resist fatigue. You rely on them when you walk the dog, carry the shopping, or stubbornly hold a suitcase that you’re too stubborn to admit is too heavy.

Type II fibres, known as fast-twitch fibres, create quick bursts of force. They help you react fast. Think catching yourself when you slip, stepping quickly off a curb, or making a last-second dash for the final Tim Tam in the staff room. ⚡

In physiotherapy, exercises can challenge these fibres in different ways. Longer, lower-load work builds endurance. Faster, more powerful movements train speed and force.

Because life sometimes needs patience… and sometimes it needs excellent Tim Tam reflexes. 🍫
