🔹Did you know that Physiotherapy has moved towards a much more hands off approach with emphasis on strength and conditioning training?🏋️🚴♀️
🔹Strength training can benefit anyone and is a key component to any rehabilitation program.
🔹To name a few of the benefits of strength & conditioning training:
- improved bone density
- improved muscular strength
- improved joint stability
- improved cardiovascular health
- injury prevention
- improved posture

Last week I delivered a Concussion Rehab lecture for which can be found on their coach academy page 🧠
The course was targeted towards S&C coaches as well as physiotherapist, chiropractors, trainers and other healthcare professionals!
Some of the key takeaways from this course were:
🔹A head strike is not required to cause a concussion
🔹There are 5 different concussion profiles
🔹Strict rest is no longer recommended, and instead light physical activity should be initiated 48 hours post-injury
🔹Every concussion is different and therefore requires an individualized treatment approach based on the systems affected
🔹Key treatment plan elements include: vestibular-ocular training, perceptual-cognitive training and exercise
🧠If you have any questions or want to learn more about concussions feel free to send me a DM👍🏼

🔹Now offering DRY NEEDLING🔹
Dry needling is a form of intramuscular stimulation for treating shortened/spasmed/taut muscles that cause musculoskeletal pain.
The needle is inserted into the affected part of the muscle (myofascial trigger point) to ultimately achieve muscle relaxation and pain relief.
If you are experiencing muscular pain, book in for an assessment to determine if dry needling might help you 👍🏼
