🌟 Recovery Journey Begins with Early Physiotherapy! 🌟

🏥 Undergoing rotator cuff repair surgery is a significant first step towards regaining full shoulder function. But did you know that the key to a successful recovery lies in starting physiotherapy early?

🔄 Why Start Early?

1️⃣ Prevents Stiffness: Early physiotherapy helps maintain joint mobility and prevents the stiffness that can set in after surgery.
2️⃣ Builds Strength Gradually: Starting early allows for a gradual increase in exercises, strengthening your shoulder progressively without overwhelming it.

📆 Consult Your Doctor: Always follow your surgeon’s advice on when to start physiotherapy. Timing can vary based on the specifics of your surgery.

💪 Take Action: Remember, the sooner you start, the smoother your journey to recovery will be! Don’t hesitate to make an appointment (tinyurl.com/ux7bnxz9) and set your post-surgery recovery on the right track.

👀 Keep following us for more tips on healthy recovery and proactive healthcare management!

🌟 Exciting News from Jenny, Your New Local Physiotherapist in Newcastle! 🌟

After years of honing my skills in hospital settings across the UK gaining experience in emergency care, orthopaedics, and rehabilitation, I'm thrilled to bring my expertise to private practice here in Newcastle. My mission? To empower you to achieve your health goals through personalised care and education.

When I'm not in the clinic, you might catch me exploring new cultures, enjoying local eats, or staying active with yoga and ocean swims—even in winter!

Let's connect and start your journey to optimal health together! You can find me at our Gateshead and Belmont clinics.

🏈 Hi, I'm Brendan and I have 12 years experience working in professional sport such as AFL, Rugby Union, Badminton, Volleyball, Track & Field, Fencing, Touch Football, Rowing and I'm currently in the professional Netball space 🏐

🏋️‍♂️ As a physiotherapist I am passionate about delivering rehabilitation through exercise in conjunction with manual therapy for any musculoskeletal injury with the aim of returning you to being better than prior to your injury. Between being a physiotherapist and strength & conditioning coach, I love watching all sport (mostly AFL), going to the gym, and I'm currently training for a triathlon 🏃‍♂️

🐾 Outside of that I love my golf, the beach, good food, good beer, and even better company. Still the best part of me is my Labrador, Shelby, who failed guide-dog training and was rehomed with me, and is my best mate 🐕

🌪️ Twist and Shout? More Like Twist and Ouch! 🌪️

Did you know that lateral ankle sprains are one of the most common injuries, especially among athletes? But here's the kicker - about 85% of these sprains happen not from contact with another player, but from an awkward twist or landing. That’s right, your own misstep can be your sneakiest opponent! 🏃‍♂️💥

The good news? Most people recover fully with proper care and physiotherapy. So, if you find yourself on the wrong foot, remember, it's just a step (and a little rehab) away from getting back in the game! 🏋️‍♀️🏆

🧊✨ Frozen Shoulder Fun Fact! ✨🧊

"Frozen Shoulder" doesn’t mean you’ve been chilling in the snow too long? 🌨️❄️ It’s actually a condition that restricts your shoulder movement, making it feel as if it’s frozen!

But no worries, you won’t need an ice pick to thaw it out. With the right exercises and a little bit of patience, you can melt away the stiffness and get your groove back! 💃🕺

Remember, if your shoulder’s giving you the cold shoulder, it’s time to warm up to some physiotherapy! 🔥👩‍⚕️

🌟 Did You Know? 🌟

While low back pain might feel like a uniquely modern human experience, it's actually been a companion of humans for thousands of years! 🦴 Researchers have found signs of spinal degeneration and low back issues in mummies and skeletons dating back to more than 3,000 years ago!

But don't worry, unlike our ancestors, we have the knowledge and resources today to manage and alleviate it. Let's stand tall (with good posture, of course) and tackle back pain together! 💪🏽🌍
