Menopause is a natural stage of life, not a medical condition. 🌸

While symptoms like hot flushes, sleep changes, and mood shifts can be challenging, lifestyle factors (nutrition, exercise, stress management) play a big role in how you experience this transition.

Knowledge = power. Talking openly about menopause helps break the stigma and gives women the support they deserve. 💛

🌿 Let’s talk about menopause 🌿

Menopause isn’t just the end of a menstrual cycle, it’s a major hormonal shift that can affect bone density, heart health, mood, and sleep.

During this stage, estrogen and progesterone levels drop, which is why strength training, good nutrition, and stress management are so important. 🏋️‍♀️🥦💤

Every woman’s experience is different, but with the right lifestyle support, you can stay strong, healthy, and confident through this transition. 💪✨

✨ NEW MINI SERIES ✨

We’re excited to launch our Women’s Health Mini Series: A space to open the conversation, share knowledge, and support women through every stage of life.

Our first topic? Menopause.

A stage that impacts every woman differently, yet is often spoken about far too little. Over the coming weeks, we’ll be diving into what menopause really is, the changes it brings, and strategies to support your health and wellbeing during this transition.
This is about empowering women with knowledge, breaking down stigma, and reminding you that you don’t have to go through it alone. 💛

👉 Follow along and join the conversation. Let’s talk women’s health openly, together.

“I didn’t realise how much it was holding me back.”

It often starts with a niggle, a sore shoulder, a tight lower back, a knee that just won’t settle. You push through it, thinking it’ll go away on its own… until it doesn’t.
That’s where physiotherapy comes in. 💪

At Macquarie Health Hub, we take the time to understand what’s really going on, not just treating the symptoms, but addressing the cause.

Whether it’s an injury, post-surgery recovery, or ongoing pain, our physiotherapy team is here to help you move better, feel stronger, and get back to doing what you love.

Managing Hip Osteoarthritis with Movement

Did you know? Hip osteoarthritis is one of the leading causes of hip pain and reduced mobility, impacting walking, balance, and everyday activities, even getting in and out of a car.

The good news? Exercise is a proven way to manage symptoms, strengthen the muscles that support your hips, and keep you moving confidently. And if you’re preparing for a hip replacement, here’s better news: Prehabilitation with a physiotherapist or exercise physiologist before surgery leads to better outcomes—including faster recovery, improved mobility, and reduced pain.

Here are some of Laura’s top recommended at-home exercises for hip osteoarthritis:

Banded Hip Abduction
Banded Hip Extension
Glute Bridges
Step-Ups (small step, pain-free range)
Seated Marches
Standing Hip Flexor Stretch
Tandem balance
If hip OA is limiting your life, or you’re preparing for surgery, let’s create a personalised exercise plan to support your journey. Reach out today!

More joint-specific OA exercises coming soon—stay tuned!
