Guess the diagnosis! 👀

Case details:
30-year-old male

Pain with overhead movements, pressing, and reaching behind the back
Discomfort when lying on the affected shoulder
Minimal to no pain at rest

What do you think is going on?

Possible Diagnosis:
➡️ Rotator cuff–related shoulder pain (including tendinopathy or subacromial pain syndrome)
This is a classic example of a load-related shoulder issue, where the shoulder is being asked to do more than it’s ready for.

These conditions respond very well to progressive, targeted rehab, not rest alone. Shoulder pain isn’t about avoiding movement. It’s about restoring capacity, control, and confidence.

👉 And if shoulder pain has been limiting your training or daily life, consult with us to get a clear diagnosis and a plan that actually works.

The postpartum "recovery phase" is so much more than just waiting for the weeks to pass. It’s about gently rebuilding your connection with your body.

Gentle foundational movements aren’t about rushing strength. They’re about stability, alignment, and confidence in movement.
✅ Pelvic Tilts to find your alignment again.
✅ Lying Hip Rotations to release tension.
✅ Crook Marches to wake up those deep stabilizing muscles.

Every postpartum body is different. Before trying any new exercise, it’s important to know what your body is ready for. If you’re unsure where to start or want guidance that feels safe and supportive, consult with our highly-trained and experienced pelvic floor physiotherapists. We’re here to help you move with intention, not pressure.

The "two-weeks-postpartum" fog is real. 👩‍🍼 Between the feedings, the naps (or lack thereof), and just trying to find your feet again, your body can start to feel a little stiff.

In those early weeks after birth, gentle movement can go a long way. It helps release tension, reconnect you to your core, and gently remind your body that it’s safe to move again. Even a few mindful minutes, like flowing through the Cat Cow exercise, can ease the stiffness that builds up from feeding, holding your baby, and those long, sleepless nights

✨ You’re doing great! And if you want support along the way, we’re here to guide you with care and encouragement every step of your recovery.

If you’ve recently welcomed a little one, you’ve probably heard the term "pelvic floor" a thousand times, but knowing exactly how to care for it postpartum can feel like a guessing game.

Those small, intentional exercises can make a big difference in bladder control, core support, and intimacy after birth, and the best part is how easily they fit into real life. You can work on your recovery while brushing your teeth or even during a 2:00 AM feed! 🤱

If you’re unsure whether you’re doing these correctly, experiencing leaks, pressure, or discomfort, you don’t have to figure it out alone. We’ve helped countless people in the community feel confident, strong, and supported through postpartum recovery.

👉 Book a consult with our pelvic floor physiotherapists to get personalized guidance.
