Researchers are still trying to figure out exactly what happens within muscle to create knots, also known as myofascial trigger points. But they do know some ways you can avoid or alleviate them.

Well it’s been a heck of a year where I’ve seen the inside of a hospital more times than I’d like! It feels like I’ve been rehabbing forever... But this week marks a milestone - I started back at work and loved it 💕 I’m not able to do house calls yet, but appointments at my home are available once again 😊👍🏻

I hope you’re all taking care of yourself over the festive season 😋

A good straight forward article about ACL injuries!

If I had a dollar — scratch that, just a dime — for every time I have heard a patient, a friend, or some random person my mother gave my number to say, “So-and-So said I tore my ACL. Please tell me it’s not my ACL!” all my medical school loans would be paid off …

Hello wonderful people! 👋🏻
After an eternity away with my own knee surgery and rehab I’m thrilled to let you know that... I’m back baby!!! Week commencing 2nd September I’m at your service again. I can’t wait to catch up, to see what you’ve been up to and most importantly of all, to help you achieve your prime health and activity goals 💪🏻💪🏻
So just a reminder: I’m available Monday to Friday from early morning to late afternoon. We can discuss weekends if necessary. My rates are $100 per hour for a house call, and $70 for a session at my house. I bring my fabulous massage table, towels and oil. Not only will you receive a bespoke sports massage, but we will discuss (prescribe, demonstrate) exercises that support your body going forward.
I look forward to hearing from you soon. I’m still able to be reached on 97255273.

Dear friends
Today I’m having knee surgery which is going to take me off my feet for a while. I won’t be able to work during this time, but hope to be back, literally up and running, in a couple of months.
In the meantime, keep well and I look forward to seeing you all again soon 😘

I'm back and ready to treat your aches and pains!

It is Christmas time AGAIN! Where did 2018 go? I want to thank you all for your support, making 2018 Physical Fix's best year so far. I am now on holiday until the 7th January, so I hope that you all stay happy and healthy over the holiday season, and I look forward to seeing you and treating you in 2019! Very best wishes.

Many of you know that recently I've had to hang up the running shoes due to a knee issue, but I remain on the lookout for good workouts that don't worsen my injury. In the spirit of trying something new, fun and healthy, this morning I did my first Swimsanity class!

Now if you've ever wanted to try aqua aerobics but wondered if it was a 'real' workout, let me tell you that Tracey delivers in buckets (literally!!!). It's a 45 minute hiit class, that had me sweating in the pool (sorry Sam!). Talk about targeted, energetic training - with no impact on my knees! So I'm attaching the promo video here, and if you want to try a class contact Tracey Pickford at pickfordtracey@hotmail.com.
