Hey mums! Trampolines aren’t just for kids—they’re awesome for your fitness too! As a physiotherapist with a special interest in women’s health, I find trampolining fantastic for core strength and coordination, which are crucial for you as well. Adding some skipping or jumping on the trampoline to your pelvic floor program can be a game-changer! It challenges your pelvic floor in different ways, making workouts fun and effective. Try different jumps, hopping, and quick stops—it’s a blast!

Exercise 🤝 Osteoarthritis
Regular exercise is important for relieving pain and improving function in people with knee and/or hip OA. Here are the exercise recommendations for those with hip and knee OA:
🔵 For knee OA, land-based exercise such as muscle strengthening exercises, walking and Tai Chi are strongly recommended.
🔵 Other land-based exercises that could be considered for some people with knee OA include stationary cycling and Hatha yoga.
🔵 The best land-based exercise for people with hip OA has yet to be determined but relatively pain free exercise will result in improvements in pain.
🔵 Aquatic exercise may be considered for some people with knee and/or hip OA.
🔵 Weight management is strongly recommended for people with knee and/or hip OA who are overweight or obese.
If you're struggling with OA pain and not sure how to get started call to book now with our Exercise Physiologist (02) 9970 7982

Grip strength is an incredibly useful biomarker for current and future health outcomes. A strong grip is associated with better overall strength, increased bone density and overall quality of life. A weak grip is associated with a number of negative health outcomes, most importantly its relationship with all-cause mortality!

Mastitis is a very common condition for people who are breastfeeding.
Mastitis is an inflammation of breast tissue that sometimes involves infection. It is typically caused by a blocked milk duct which can lead to painful, inflamed breasts.
Physios can actually help in treating mastitis if you notice the symptoms early on!
If you are experiencing any redness of the breast tissue, tenderness or can feel a blocked duct you may have the early symptoms of mastitis! Some of the treatments mentioned above may help prevent it from progressing and requiring antibiotics

Ever felt dizzy or unstable? Your vestibular system, responsible for balance and spatial orientation, can be affected. Symptoms like dizziness, vertigo, lightheadedness, and difficulty with coordination may stem from issues in the neck and upper spine
A sports chiropractor can indirectly support vestibular health by addressing these areas with gentle mobilisations and manual techniques. By improving neck function, chiropractic care aims to alleviate symptoms linked to vestibular issues and restore your stability!
✖️ Lower Back Disc Pain? Learn How a Sports Chiropractor Can Help! ✖️
Lower back disc pain can be a sharp, shooting pain or a dull ache that hangs around, coming from issues with your spine.
Discs in your spine can become inflamed, irritated and sometimes protrude. This is a normal condition, usually because of wear and tear, injury, or age-related changes, and can press on nerves nearby, causing pain, numbness, or weakness.
The great news is that disc bulges can be well-managed with sports chiropractic care, with a blend of targeted manual therapy and rehabilitative exercises.
Regular physical activity and a balanced diet are key for weight loss. Exercise burns calories, leading to reduced body weight, and lowers health risks. Consistent exercise improves overall health, regardless of weight loss.
If exercise is your main strategy, it requires dedication. The American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) recommends:
- 150 minutes per week of moderate-intensity exercise for weight maintenance.
- 250-300 minutes per week for meaningful weight loss.
Combined with a caloric deficit, exercise can be as effective as diet alone, but significant activity is needed.
So, why prioritise exercise?
The benefits include:
- Reduced health risks: Regular exercise lowers blood pressure, decreases LDL cholesterol, increases HDL cholesterol, and improves glucose tolerance.
- Better body composition: Exercise can reduce visceral fat and maintain lean muscle, even without major weight loss. Resistance training is especially effective for dieters.
How can an Exercise Physiologist help?
An Exercise Physiologist ensures your exercise journey is safe and effective. They will:
- Customise your program to fit your preferences.
- Monitor your progress to maximise benefits.
- Use evidence-based practices for your plan.
Our Exercise Physiology services are available at our Narrabeen clinic or via home visits!

Is your shoulder pain coming from your neck?
Shoulder pain can often stem from issues in the neck, known as referred pain. This occurs when nerves in the neck are irritated or compressed, causing pain signals to radiate to the shoulder. A sports chiropractor specialises in diagnosing and treating such conditions by addressing muscle tension and nerve impingements that contribute to both neck and shoulder discomfort. Through targeted mobilisations, soft tissue therapies, dry needling, and tailored rehabilitation exercises, a sports chiropractor can effectively alleviate pain, restore mobility, and prevent future injuries, offering athletes and active individuals comprehensive care for optimal performance and recovery.
Pelvic girdle pain is common during pregnancy as hormonal changes allow joints to loosen and expand to create more space for the growing baby. This can result in joint instability and pain.
Physio can help to manage pain and discomfort!

Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is a prevalent condition among women, affecting millions worldwide. It occurs when physical activities such as coughing, sneezing, laughing, or exercising exert pressure on the bladder, leading to unintentional urine leakage due to weakened pelvic floor muscles or poor muscle coordination.
Women's health physiotherapists play a crucial role in treating SUI through specialised interventions. They employ targeted pelvic floor exercises to strengthen muscles that support the bladder and urethra. These exercises improve muscle tone and control, reducing episodes of leakage.
In addition to exercises, physiotherapists educate patients on lifestyle modifications like bladder training techniques and dietary adjustments that can alleviate symptoms. They also offer personalised assessments to identify contributing factors such as childbirth, menopause, or certain medical conditions, tailoring treatment plans accordingly.
The comprehensive care provided by a physiotherapist with a special interest in women's health offers hope and practical solutions to women dealing with stress urinary incontinence, empowering them to regain control and improve their quality of life. If you or someone you know is affected by SUI, consulting with a specialised physiotherapist can be a transformative step toward managing this common yet treatable condition.

How can physiotherapy help with constipation?
Physiotherapists with a special interest in women's health play a crucial role in addressing constipation, a common yet often overlooked issue that can significantly impact your quality of life. By specialising in pelvic floor health, we can offer tailored treatments that goes beyond conventional approaches such as dietary adjustments and medical interventions.
What physiotherapy treatment & education may include:
- Education on staying hydrated: Drinking plenty of water throughout the day to keep stools soft and easy to pass.
- Assistance with maintaining a regular exercise routine: Physical activity helps stimulate bowel movements and improves overall digestive health.
- Establishing a regular toilet routine: Try to go to the bathroom at the same time each day, especially after meals when the colon is most active
- Education on the effects of delaying bowel movements: Respond promptly to the body's signals to avoid stool hardening in the colon.
- Education on the best positioning when opening your bowels: A foot stool can be very helpful
- Pelvic Floor Exercises - coordination, strength and/or relaxation: improved pelvic floor muscle function assists with bowel movements.
- Referral to other professionals for other treatment strategies such as diet management, increasing fibre intake/supplements, and stress management
Constipation in women can stem from various factors such as pregnancy, postpartum recovery, or pelvic floor dysfunction. Physiotherapists with a special interest in women's health employ a holistic approach, combining exercises, manual therapy, and lifestyle modifications to alleviate symptoms.

In physiotherapy, diagnosing lower back pain can be approached in two ways: structural diagnoses and movement diagnoses. Structural diagnosis focuses on identifying the specific anatomical issue, such as a facet joint issue or a disc issue. While this can be useful, it often doesn’t provide the full picture.
Movement diagnosis examines how you move and where dysfunction or pain occurs, such as a flexion or a rotation movement dysfunction. This approach is often beneficial because it empowers you to take control of your recovery. By understanding your movement issues, you can actively participate in your rehabilitation, making the recovery process more structured and manageable.
At BeachLife Physiotherapy in Frenchs Forest and Narrabeen our goal is to help you understand and improve how you move, enabling you to achieve long-term relief and prevent future issues.

Remedial massage plays an important role in sports and exercise recovery, particularly for elite athletes. For these athletes, remedial massage therapy is a key component of their routine, helping to enhance performance, reduce muscle soreness, and prevent injuries. It promotes blood flow, alleviates muscle tension, and accelerates recovery, ensuring athletes maintain peak physical condition.
However, you don’t need to be an elite athlete to benefit from remedial massage. For those of us who engage in regular physical activity, taking care of our bodies is essential for maintaining health and preventing injury. Remedial massage therapy can help alleviate muscle tightness, improve range of movement, and aid in faster recovery after workouts. Despite its benefits, remedial massage and overall recovery are often overlooked aspects of fitness routines.
Many Northern Beaches locals lead active lifestyles, making recovery an essential part of their healthy habits. We offer remedial massage therapy at our Narrabeen clinic to support your recovery needs. While we don't have a dedicated massage therapist at our Frenchs Forest clinic, our physiotherapists are skilled in providing massage and maintenance sessions. Prioritising recovery through remedial massage can enhance your overall fitness and well-being, helping you stay active and injury-free.

An exercise physiology assessment is a comprehensive evaluation designed to create a personalised exercise program tailored to your unique health needs. At BeachLife Physiotherapy, our assessments begin with a detailed medical history review, where we consider factors such as previous injuries, metabolic health issues, cardiovascular conditions, and musculoskeletal imbalances.
Next, we conduct physical tests to assess your current fitness level, strength, flexibility, and endurance. These tests help identify any specific areas that need attention, such as muscle weaknesses or joint instabilities. For example, if you have a history of lower back pain, we will focus on assessing your core strength and spinal mobility.
Following the assessment, our exercise physiologists analyse the results to design a customised exercise plan. This plan is tailored to address your specific health concerns and fitness goals, ensuring that you can safely and effectively improve your health.
At BeachLife Physiotherapy, we offer these comprehensive assessments at our Narrabeen location and through home visits in the Northern Beaches and North Shore areas. By understanding what an exercise physiology assessment involves, you can better appreciate how it guides you towards achieving optimal health and wellness.

Physiotherapy for Prolapse Management!
Prolapse, a common issue for many women, involves pelvic organs descending from their normal positions, causing discomfort. Physiotherapy offers effective solutions:
Understanding Prolapse:
Pelvic organs descend due to weakened pelvic floor muscles and connective tissues, often from factors like childbirth or ageing.
Identifying Symptoms:
Symptoms include pelvic pressure, noticeable bulges, discomfort during intercourse, incontinence, and difficulty emptying bladder or bowel.
How Physiotherapy Helps:
- Pelvic Floor Muscle Training: Personalised exercises, like Kegels, strengthen muscles, reducing prolapse severity.
- Education and Lifestyle Modifications: Guidance on lifting techniques, posture correction, weight management, and preventing exacerbating factors.
- Manual Therapy Techniques: Hands-on approaches like soft tissue mobilisation and myofascial release improve muscle function and alleviate discomfort.
With physiotherapy support, women can find relief and regain control over their pelvic health. Seek guidance from our qualified physiotherapists specialising in women's health for comfort and confidence.
