Need to slow down? Stretching has been shown to help release endorphins and reduce pain. Add the breath to a stretch for even more healing. The breath alone can undo muscle tension and calm the mind. Research using randomized controlled trials suggests that deep breathing reduces heart rate and cortisol levels, which some of us know as a 'stress hormone' (Perciavalle et al, 2017). Prolonged exposure to our own stress hormones can trigger disease. Physical therapist, Leah Segelove, Sydney University Physio Graduate who now lives and practices in New York, says that it only takes 4 deep breaths to start to relieve muscle tension and pain. Try it now!
If you need some help, Upright Physio can assist with quality hands on techniques to unstress your body. Call today 0403093913.

Looking for an older, wiser Physiotherapist?
Physiotherapy arts can be traced back to ancient India, China, and Greece. Forms of massage, hydrotherapy and therapeutic exercise are thousands of years old. In 460 B.C., Hippocrates, an ancient Greek physician traditionally regarded as the father of medicine, began to advocate the use of massage and manual therapy techniques for the treatment of certain conditions. In the same year, also in Greece, Hector started to employ hydrotherapy. Even Aristotel, the famous Greek philosopher, also recommended that massaging with oil could help relieve tiredness. However it wasn't until the 1800's that the term Physiotherapy(borrowed from the Greek' was coined for natural hands on healing and exercise, and a "physiotherapy school' didn't open til 1913 in NZ in Otago.

From what I can deduce its origins are ancient and there is no sign of hands on healing going out of fashion. Most of our clients know when they reach a point with pain that they need the hands of a therapist to untie their knots, iron out bumps, reduce their tension. Thousands of years of use can't be refuted.

Upright Physio has moved to Coolum after 6 years at Peregian Beach, only 7 mins down the road. And we are discovering that Coolum's Coastline is a health inducing wonderland. Beach run, bush walk, stair climb, clifftop meditation, they are all on offer.

Stair climbing has been shown to not only burn more calories than walking, reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke, increase muscle strength but also to invigorate and improve mood states. And in an environment like this, who can argue?

Find our new treatment room at BayTerrace, Coolum, not fat from one of the most beautiful staircases in Queensland!
