Most shoulder issues I see aren’t really the shoulder’s fault. It’s the shoulder blade not doing its job.

When the muscles around it get lazy, your shoulders roll forward and it starts to pinch when you reach overhead. This is one I give a lot of my patients to get those muscles working again.

Biggest mistake I see? Arching your lower back to get your hands to the floor. Keep it flat and stop a bit short. You’ll get way more out of it.

Sore for a while? Come in and we’ll find out why. Link in bio.

Out on hole 2 at Warringah, the hole we sponsor ⛳️

Lower back pain is the most common injury I see in golfers, and it's usually not the back's fault.

Your swing is meant to rotate through your hips and upper back. When those areas are stiff, your lower back ends up twisting to make up the difference. Add a weak core and weak glutes and you've got an unstable base, which puts even more pressure through the lower back every time you swing. Do that for 18 holes and it adds up.

If your back's been giving you grief, on or off the course, come in and let's sort it out.

I’ve been following LeBron’s career for years, and this jersey’s been on my office wall for a long time 🏀

He was 18 in his rookie year. He was 41 in year 23, still one of the best in the game. That doesn’t happen by accident.

Yes, he reportedly spends around $2m a year on his body. But this isn’t about money, it’s that he’s proactive. He looks after himself every day, not just when something hurts.

Most of us do the opposite. We wait until the back locks up or the knee goes before we do anything about it.

You don’t need a pro athlete’s budget. Keep moving, look after your recovery, and get things checked before they turn into a problem.

What does a “good” spine actually look like? 🦴

From behind it should be pretty straight, with your hips and shoulders level. From the side you want three gentle curves: neck, mid back and lower back. Those curves work like suspension and help spread the load through your joints.

What I see a lot in clinic is the neck losing its curve, the mid back rounding forward and the lower back arching more. When that happens, some areas end up copping more load than they should.

If you’ve ever wondered what your own spine’s doing, pop in and I’ll have a look with you. Link’s in my bio, or give the clinic a ring.

Back pain that runs into your buttock or leg, and it’s worse when you sit or bend forward? I see this most days in the clinic, and these are the exercises I usually start people on.

Quick explanation first. Your discs have a soft, gel-like centre. Sitting and bending push that gel backwards, toward the nerves. Bending backwards (extension) is thought to nudge it forward again and take some load off the back of the disc.

Here’s the order I go through:

1. Lie face down and just relax, 2 to 3 minutes
2. Prop up on your elbows, hold up to 2 minutes
3. Press-ups, 10 reps. Let your hips sag, don’t lift them
4. Standing back bends, 10 reps. Good one to do after you’ve been sitting a while

Don’t rush it. Only move on when the step you’re on feels comfortable.

What to watch for: if the leg pain eases or creeps back up toward your spine, that’s what we want. If it heads further down the leg, stop.

⚠️ These aren’t right for everyone. They may not suit you if you’ve lost a lot of disc height (less than about 70% of normal). And if you’ve got numbness around the saddle area, changes in your bladder or bowel, or weakness in your leg, don’t wait. Get urgent medical care.

This is general info only, not a replacement for getting properly assessed.

Dry needling + TENS: what’s actually going on? 👇

In this video I’m needling the shoulders, lower back, hips and Achilles, then clipping a TENS machine onto the needles.

How it works
Fine, sterile needles go into tight, irritable bands of muscle (trigger points). This can prompt the muscle to release and increase local blood flow. Adding TENS sends a gentle electrical pulse through the needles, so the muscle gets a rhythmic contract-and-relax stimulus instead of a single static one.

Pain and your nervous system
Pain isn’t just about the muscle. It’s also about how your nervous system is processing signals from that area. Needling and TENS give the nerves a new, non-threatening input, which can help “turn the volume down” on pain signals travelling to the spinal cord and brain. It’s also thought to encourage the release of your body’s own pain-relieving chemicals (endorphins) and help shift you out of that wound-up, protective state, so the muscles stop guarding and the area can settle.

What it feels like
Most people barely notice the needles going in. You might feel a dull ache or a quick twitch as the muscle responds. Once the TENS is on, it’s a steady tapping or pulsing sensation, and you’ll often see the muscle gently jumping in time with it. Strange at first, but most people find it surprisingly relaxing. We set the intensity together, so you’re always in control.

How it may help
✅ Tight, overworked shoulders
✅ Lower back stiffness
✅ Hip tension and restricted movement
✅ Achilles and calf tightness
✅ Calming a sensitive, overprotective pain response

Afterwards, it’s common to feel looser, sometimes with a mild “worked out” soreness for a day or so.

Stuck with tech neck? 📱

Hours looking down at your phone or laptop can pull your head forward and flatten the natural curve of your neck. The result is often neck pain, stiffness, headaches and tight shoulders.

One tool we use to help is the cervical Denneroll: a simple wedge you lie on for a few minutes at a time, designed to gently stretch your neck back towards its natural curve.

But here’s the important part: it’s not one-size-fits-all. ⚠️

Before we prescribe a Denneroll, we take X-rays. Why? Because where the wedge sits, which size you use and how long you use it all depend on your specific alignment. The wrong placement for your neck could make things worse.

Your X-rays show us:
✅ The shape of your neck curve
✅ How far forward your head sits
✅ Whether the Denneroll is right for you at all

Then we fit it to you and show you exactly how to use it at home.
