Strong bones aren't built by chance—they're developed through evidence-based exercise strategies that target bone density and skeletal health. 💪

At TPS Health, our science-based bone health exercise classes combine weight-bearing movements, resistance training, and balance work proven to stimulate bone formation. Research shows that targeted exercise can increase bone mineral density by up to 3% annually when performed consistently with proper form and progressive overload.

Our certified Exercise Physiologist designs each session around three key principles: mechanical loading to stimulate osteoblast activity, functional movement patterns that enhance daily living, and fall prevention techniques that reduce fracture risk. Every exercise is backed by peer-reviewed studies and adapted to individual fitness levels.

Whether you're looking to prevent osteoporosis, recover from bone loss, or simply build stronger skeletal foundation, our classes provide the scientific framework your bones need to thrive. Each participant receives personalized modifications ensuring safe, effective progression.

Why We Love the Countermovement Jump 🏀⛹️‍♀️⛳️
It’s not just a jump — it’s a simple test that reveals how well your body produces, absorbs, and controls force.

🔹 Power & Athleticism
Your jump height shows how quickly you can create force — the same quality behind sprint speed, explosive take-offs, and even a stronger golf swing.

🔹 Control & Symmetry
Landing where you started — and landing evenly on both legs — tells us how well you control powerful movement, and whether there are any strength or mobility gaps holding you back.

🔹 Elastic Efficiency
A great jump uses the body’s built-in spring system (tendons + fascia) to create free energy. The more elastic you are, the more effortless your movement becomes.

🧠 Ergonomics: Optimising Your Workstation for Injury Prevention

Poor workstation setup is one of the most common contributors to neck, shoulder, and low back pain in office workers. Even small postural deviations can increase spinal and muscular loading by up to 50% over time.

🪑 Advanced Ergonomic Tips from Our Physios:

💻 Monitor height & distance:
Top of the screen should be at or just below eye level, roughly an arm’s length away. Dual screens? Align them centrally or prioritise your main monitor.

🪶 Chair & lumbar support:
Adjust the backrest to maintain a slight lumbar lordosis (20–40°). Use the chair’s lumbar support or an ergonomic cushion to reduce spinal disc pressure.

⌨️ Keyboard & mouse position:
Keep elbows bent at 90–100°, wrists in a neutral alignment, and shoulders relaxed. Avoid resting wrists on hard edges — use a soft wrist support if needed.

🦶 Lower limb positioning:
Feet should rest flat on the floor (or on a footrest if your chair height requires it). Knees should be at or just below hip height to promote optimal pelvic alignment.

⏱️ Movement breaks:
Every 30–45 minutes, stand, walk, or perform light mobility exercises. Dynamic postural variation reduces static muscle fatigue and improves circulation.

💬 Physio Insight:
Ergonomics isn’t just about posture — it’s about movement efficiency. A well-set-up workspace supports your body’s natural alignment and encourages frequent, pain-free movement.

📍Book an ergonomic assessment with our physiotherapists to optimise your workstation and reduce work-related discomfort.

🏊‍♂️ Swimming & Injury Recovery: Why It Helps 🏊‍♂️

Swimming is often recommended for rehabilitation because it’s low-impact and gentle on the joints, while still allowing you to stay active. Here’s why it’s great for injury management:

1. Low-Impact on Joints
- Water supports your body weight, reducing stress on knees, hips, ankles, and spine.
- Ideal for people recovering from joint injuries, surgery, or arthritis.

2. Builds Strength Without Strain
- Water provides natural resistance, helping maintain or improve muscle strength safely.
- You can target muscles around injured areas without overloading them.

3. Improves Cardiovascular Fitness
- Swimming keeps your heart and lungs strong, even when you can’t run or do high-impact exercise.
- Maintains overall fitness during recovery periods.

4. Enhances Flexibility & Range of Motion
- Movements in water encourage gentle stretching of muscles and joints.
- Can help reduce stiffness after injuries or surgery.

5. Promotes Healing & Circulation
- Hydrostatic pressure of water improves blood flow and reduces swelling.
- Warm water can relax tight muscles and relieve pain.

🚴‍♀️ Common Cycling Injuries & How Physio Can Help

Cycling is fantastic for fitness, endurance, and joint health — but overuse, poor bike setup, or technique issues can lead to injury. Here are the most common cycling injuries and how physiotherapy can support your ride 👇

🔹 Knee Pain (Patellofemoral Pain / ITB Syndrome)
Often linked to overuse, weak glutes, or bike fit issues. Pain usually felt around the kneecap or outer thigh.

🔹 Low Back Pain
Long hours in a flexed position and reduced core control can overload the lumbar spine.

🔹 Neck & Shoulder Pain
Sustained postures or poor handlebar positioning can strain neck and shoulder muscles.

🔹 Wrist & Hand Pain (Handlebar Palsy)
Pressure on the handlebars can compress nerves → causing numbness, tingling, or weakness.

🔹 Hip Pain
Often due to muscle imbalance between quadriceps and glutes or reduced hip mobility.

🧑‍⚕️ How Physiotherapy Helps Cyclists

✅ Assess injury, bike fit factors & cycling biomechanics
✅ Hands-on treatment to reduce pain & tightness
✅ Strength & mobility programs for cyclists
✅ Core, hip & lower limb conditioning for power & efficiency
✅ Return-to-ride planning + load management
✅ Prevention strategies to keep you riding pain-free

If you’re cycling with discomfort, early intervention can keep small niggles from becoming long-term issues. Let’s keep you riding stronger, longer 💪🚴‍♂️

What is 'The Rotator Cuff'?

The rotator cuff is a group of four muscles (Infraspinatus, Supraspinatus, Subscapularis and Teres Minor) that stabilise the shoulder joint and allow you to lift and rotate the arm.

Common injuries include:
Tendinopathy - Symptoms: pain when lifting/reaching, weakness, discomfort at top or front of shoulder.
Impingement - Symptoms: pain when raising arm, difficulty reaching, or throwing.
Subacromial bursitis - Symptoms: pain at the top of the shoulder, swelling, reduced range of motion.
Tears - Symptoms: sharp pain, weakness, popping or clicking sensation.
Calcific tendinitis - Symptoms: sudden, severe pain, often at rest or at night.

What is the Role of the Physiotherapist:
1.ASSESSMENT & DIAGNOSIS:
Identify which muscle/tendon is affected
Assess shoulder movement, strength and posture
Determine the cause (overuse, trauma, poor mechanics)
2.PAIN MANAGEMENT:
Inflammatory management advice
Soft tissue techniques
Education on activity modification to avoid aggravation
3.MOBILITY & FLEXIBILITY:
Improving shoulder joint range of motion
Stretching/releasing tight muscles around the shoulder and chest
Correcting scapular mechanics and upper body posture
4.STRENGTHENING:
Shoulder stabilisation exercises
Gradual load progression
Functional training to return to sport, work or daily activities
5.EDUCATION & PREVENTION:
Advice on modifying activities
Guidance on long term rotator cuff care
Injury prevention - teaching proper lifting and overhead approaches or assessing form/technique

Speed starts from the ground up — not the hands.
A better golf swing isn’t just technique, it’s biomechanics.

✅ Hip rotation → creates torque
✅ Thoracic mobility → controls the club path
✅ Lower body power → builds clubhead speed
✅ Core stability → keeps it all repeatable

If one link is weak, the swing compensates. That’s when you lose distance, consistency… or end up injured.

Get assessed like an athlete. Swing like one too.
