Do you ever wonder why you keep stretching the same muscle, yet it remains persistently tight?

Stretching is great- it can help elongate tight & sore muscle fibres by bringing blood flow and oxygen to the area, which in turn improves range of motion. However, when tightness persists, we must investigate why! Tightness may actually be a result of weakness. When muscles are weak, they often compensate by remaining in a contracted state to provide more stability. A physiotherapist can help you identify imbalances and create an exercise plan to strengthen tight muscles.

Did you know there is a clinical reason why you may feel low mood and low energy during the colder months? 🥶😔😴

It’s called S.A.D. (seasonal affective disorder). Changes in daylight can disrupt our circadian rhythm, consequently affecting our levels of serotonin and melatonin (the hormones that affect our sleep and mood). However, there are ways to reduce these symptoms, such as getting outside, even on cloudy days, purchasing a daylight lamp, ensuring adequate vitamin D intake, staying active, and maintaining a consistent sleep-wake schedule. Although, if you are experiencing severe symptoms, seek medical help from a therapist or a doctor!

Kin vs PT: Who Do I Book With? 🤔

That’s a great question! There is some overlap between services. Generally, physiotherapists assess, diagnose and treat physical injuries and dysfunction, while kinesiologists focus on exercise prescription, biomechanics, and building long-term strength and movement.

Physiotherapists and kinesiologists often work together to support your recovery, and fortunately, at CKP, we have both!
