Chronic pain is any persistent symptoms or pain that last for more than 3 months. Pain could be sharp, achy, shooting, burning or perhaps even felt as pins, needles or numbness. It can be caused by a number of factor including injury, illness, medical history of previous surgery. 🥲

Whilst a number of chronic pain conditions cannot necessarily be reversed, physiotherapy can greatly assist to help you manage the symptoms and in many cases prevent further changes. 😊

National Pain Week takes place in the last week of July this year, aiming to increase awareness in chronic pain conditions. If you are experiencing chronic pain, get in touch with our team for a thorough assessment and better understanding of your condition! 💪

Managing prediabetes through physical activity is a highly effective approach to improving your health and reducing the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

Here’s how getting active can help! 😉

1. Improves Insulin Sensitivity 🧐 : Regular exercise helps your muscles use glucose more efficiently, which can improve your insulin sensitivity and lower blood glucose levels.
2. Aids Weight Management 🎖 : Physical activity helps burn calories, which can aid in weight loss or maintenance, both of which are important for managing blood sugar levels.
3. Reduces Blood Sugar Levels 🤓 : Exercise causes your muscles to take up more glucose, which can help lower blood sugar levels immediately and for several hours after physical activity.
4. Enhances Cardiovascular Health 🫀 : Regular physical activity improves heart health, which is important because people with prediabetes have a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases.
5. Reduces Stress 🤔 : Exercise can help reduce stress levels, which can have a positive effect on blood sugar levels as stress hormones can raise blood glucose levels.
