Our Director, Michael Pasqualin was honoured to be invited by Healthscope Private Hospitals to speak about the role of physiotherapists in orthopaedic and spinal surgeries, alongside esteemed local surgeons and friends Dr. David Lieu and Dr. Ganesh Shiva.

Physiotherapy is designed to restore movement, strength, and function after injury, surgery, or chronic issues. That means working with tissues that may be:
-Inflamed or healing
-Weak or stiff from disuse
-Moving improperly due to compensation patterns

So, yes, discomfort is common, especially in the early stages. But pain and harm are not the same thing.

Why Physiotherapy Might Hurt:
❗️Muscles & Tissues Are Being Challenged
If you’ve been inactive or guarding an injury, suddenly using those muscles again can feel sore, like a workout, but more intense.

❗️Breaking Down Scar Tissue or Adhesions
Hands-on therapy or stretching tight tissue can be uncomfortable — but it’s often necessary to restore mobility.

❗️Nerves May Be Hypersensitive
After injury, the nervous system can become extra reactive. Movement may trigger pain even when nothing is “damaging” you.

❗️You’re Relearning Movement
Your body may resist new patterns, especially if it’s been compensating. Rebuilding proper mechanics can feel awkward or sore.

Back pain is one of the most common health issues worldwide, affecting people of all ages. It can range from a dull, constant ache to a sudden, sharp pain. While most cases of back pain improve with rest, time, or simple home treatments, there are situations where seeing a physiotherapist is the right move.

Common Causes of Back Pain:
-Poor posture (especially with prolonged sitting)
-Muscle or ligament strain
-Herniated or bulging discs
-Degenerative disc disease
-Arthritis or spinal stenosis
-Injuries or trauma
-Lack of movement / sedentary lifestyle

When to book with a P1 Physiotherapist:
Pain persists for more than a few days
-It affects your daily activities
- Repeated flare-ups
- Pain radiates to other areas. If pain travels down your leg (sciatica), or you experience numbness, tingling, or weakness, it may indicate nerve involvement.
- Postural problems or stiffness
-If you feel unusually stiff, especially after waking or sitting, a physio can guide mobility and strength programs.

🤔 Why Do our Knees Crack?
-Gas Bubbles (Cavitation): Harmless cracking when gas bubbles in the joint fluid collapse or shift. Common when standing up, squatting, or straightening the knee.
-Ligament or Tendon Movement: Soft tissues snapping over bony structures during movement can create a popping or cracking sound.
-Cartilage Wear (Crepitus): Rough surfaces from cartilage degeneration (e.g. osteoarthritis) cause grinding or cracking. May be accompanied by pain or stiffness.
-Previous Injury or Alignment Issues: Scar tissue or altered biomechanics can lead to irregular joint movement and noise.
-Meniscus or Patellofemoral Issues: Popping could be due to a tear or improper tracking of the kneecap.

🧑‍⚕️ How P1 Physiotherapy can Help?

Our physiotherapists can assist by:
✅ Assessment: Examines your gait, posture, strength, flexibility, and joint mobility and identifing the cause of the cracking (normal or due to dysfunction).
✅ Pain & Inflammation Management: Uses modalities like ice, heat, ultrasound, or TENS if there's pain or swelling.
✅ Strengthening & Stabilization: Targets weak muscles around the knee (e.g., quads, hamstrings, glutes). Helps offload stress from the joint and improve alignment.
✅ Mobility & Flexibility: Stretches tight structures (like IT band or hip flexors) that may contribute to misalignment. Improves joint function and reduces abnormal joint noises.
✅ Patella Tracking & Biomechanics Correction: Exercises to realign or improve the movement of the kneecap. Taping or bracing may be used temporarily.
✅ Education & Prevention: Teaches proper movement mechanics during activities like squatting or running. Advises on footwear, activity modifications, or ergonomic adjustments.
