📍 Update from our Co-Director, Scott Gordon, checking in from Buenos Aires, Argentina! 🇦🇷⚽️

Scott has been in South America, immersed in the culture, learning Spanish, and soaking up the unmatched energy of Argentinian football.

At Fortis, growth and curiosity are core values, not just for our patients, but for our team. Scott is living that ethos, stepping outside his comfort zone by studying physiotherapy in a different language and deepening his understanding of global approaches to healthcare.

It’s an incredible way to expand knowledge, gain new perspectives, and bring back insights that will ultimately benefit our Fortis community here at home. 💪🌎

Scott will be away until early December - in the meantime, our team has you covered with Scott H, Adam and Ash all available for appointments.

We’re so proud of Scott for leading by example - exploring, learning, and growing so he can bring even more value back to Fortis.

Bien hecho, Scott! 👏🇦🇷 Nos vemos pronto!

Shoulder pain when you lift? 💪
Here’s Scott G pointing out the subacromial space — a small gap at the top of the shoulder that does a huge job. 

When this space becomes irritated, it can lead to one of the most common shoulder issues in athletes: Subacromial Pain Syndrome (SAPS).

This happens when the tendons and bursa around the shoulder get compressed or inflamed, often from repetitive overhead movements, poor posture, or muscle imbalances. The result? Pain when lifting, reaching, or even sleeping.

Physiotherapy focuses on reducing pain and restoring shoulder function through targeted exercises, hands-on treatment, and improving how your shoulder blade moves. The good news — with early rehab, most people recover well and get back to training with reduced pain. 🏋️‍♂️

👉 Read the full blog on the Fortis Physio website to learn what causes SAPS, which structures are involved, and how physio can help keep your shoulders strong and moving well.

🔥 PURE PASSION 🔵

When the Queanbeyan Blues were down 22–26 with a minute to go, Captain Dylan McLachlan crossed under the posts to seal a 28–26 Grand Final victory — and Fortis Physio’s own Scott Gordon, Practice Principal and Head Physio for the Blues, was right there celebrating every second! 🙌

From the sideline to the clinic, Scott’s commitment to helping athletes perform at their best is what Fortis is all about. We’re proud to support the Blues and our wider Canberra sporting community. 🏉

📸 Big thanks to Trisha's Sports / Events Photography for the fantastic photos from the day!
