💢 Is your phone hurting your neck? 💢

Every time you look down at your phone, your neck takes the strain.
At 0°, your head weighs just 5kg.
At 15°, it’s 12kg.
At 30°, it’s 18kg.
At 60°, your neck is carrying a shocking 27kg – the same as a heavy rucksack strapped to your spine!

This “Text Neck” posture can cause:
⚡ Ongoing neck pain & stiffness
⚡ Headaches
⚡ Shoulder tightness
⚡ Early wear and tear of the cervical spine

👉 The good news? Physiotherapy can help relieve pain, improve posture, and protect your neck for the future.

📍 At IP Studio Physiotherapy, Polegate, we can help you!

📩 Send us a message today to book your appointment or find out how we can help you. Don’t ignore the signs — your spine deserves care.

💬 Share this post with a friend or family member who’s always looking down at their phone!

🌍✨ World Physiotherapy Day 2025 ✨🌍

Today we celebrate the vital role physiotherapists play in helping people live stronger, safer, and healthier lives. 💪🧡

This year’s theme is all about Healthy Ageing, Preventing Frailty, and Reducing Falls.
Falls are one of the biggest risks to independence as we age — but they’re not an inevitable part of getting older. With the right support, they can often be prevented.
Physiotherapists make a difference by:

✔️ Building strength and balance through tailored exercises
✔️ Reducing the risk of falls with movement and mobility training
✔️ Supporting independence and confidence in daily activities
✔️ Encouraging active, healthy lifestyles for all ages

Healthy ageing isn’t just about living longer — it’s about staying mobile, safe, and able to enjoy life fully. 🌟

Let’s celebrate the power of physiotherapy in keeping communities active and preventing avoidable falls. 🙌
