✈️ I’m off to Italy! 🇮🇹

I’ll be away for the next 4 weeks recharging, exploring (and probably walking more than my body’s ready for). During this time, I’ll still be checking messages periodically but appointment availability will be paused until I return.

In the spirit of travel — here are 3 quick tips to help your body handle long-haul flights:

1️⃣ Move often – Stand up, walk the aisles, or do gentle ankle pumps every hour to keep blood flowing.
2️⃣ Support your posture – Use a small pillow or rolled-up jumper behind your lower back.
3️⃣ Stay hydrated – Cabin air dries you out, and dehydration can worsen muscle stiffness and cramps.

Safe travels to anyone else heading abroad — your body will thank you for looking after it mid-flight!

Side planks = powerhouse for hip strength

Research shows side planks are one of the best exercises for engaging the hip abductors (key for stability, balance & injury prevention).

👉 Start with the easy version: knees bent.
👉 Progress to legs straight as you get stronger.
👉 Begin with short holds, then build up over time.

Strong hips = better performance + reduced risk of pain & injury.

🚶‍♂️ Shin Splints (Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome) 🚶‍♀️

🔥 Location of pain:
Sharp or aching pain along the inside of the shin bone, often worse with running, jumping, or prolonged walking.

⚡ Contributing factors:
- Sudden increase in training load.
- Hard running surfaces.
- Poor arch support or strength.
- Poor ankle range.
- Weak calf or hip muscles.

💪 Treatment & management:
- Relative rest (don’t push through pain).
- Gradual return to training
- Addressing relevant impairments (Strengthening calves/hips/foot, improve ROM etc).
- Supportive footwear or orthotics.

👉 Online physio can guide you with a tailored rehab plan to not only settle symptoms but also prevent them coming back stronger.

Heading up to Exmouth? Make sure to check out Tahila’s Pilates classes while you’re here! 🐠🌊

Whether you’re visiting from Perth for a getaway or lucky enough to call Exmouth home, her sessions are the perfect way to keep your body moving well while enjoying the coast.

Pilates is fantastic for building strength, improving mobility, and preventing injury – so you can make the most of your snorkelling, hiking, and exploring without the aches and pains.

Look after your body, and leave your holiday feeling better than when you arrived. 💪✨

Temporarily away from Perth!
I’ll be providing rural physio services in Exmouth for a short time and won’t be available for in-person consults in Perth during this period.

I am still available for online consults and free advice!

See you soon!

1. Identify the aggravating activity:
This could be prolonged sitting, walking, work tasks, lifting, or your sport. Noting when your pain flares up helps pinpoint the underlying trigger.

2. Identify the impairment:
Is it a stiff joint, tight/weak muscle, poor control, or lack of endurance?

3. Begin gradual exposure:
Avoiding movement makes things worse. Reduce the aggravating activity, and slowly build it up as symptoms improve.

4. Support with mobility or strength work:
Once you’ve calmed the flare-up, add the missing piece — address the impairment!

5. Stay consistent:
Long-term improvement comes from consistent, progressive input — not quick fixes. Think of physio like brushing your teeth — small habits done often.
