Looking for a healthier alternative to fries? Try our curried carrot chips recipe!
Carrots are high in fibre, beta carotene, potassium, vitamin K1 and antioxidants! Olive oil has anti-inflammatory properties and is good for liver health!

The oils typically used in conventional fries and other fried food can contribute to inflammation and other negative health outcomes. Eating inflammatory foods can also make your pain worse and inhibit healing. So, if you're seeing us at the clinic to help you get out of pain or rehab an injury, ask us about how you can maximize your results with the right nutritional support too!

There are other validated, conservative treatment options that can help a lot of people to avoid invasive surgeries or to remove reliance on medication (which can have side-effects) to manage their pain. Below are the key treatments that we have seen success with. As always, what will work for one individual won't necessarily work for another. We need to identify your individual triggers and find the right mix (in the right order) of treatments for YOU! Reach out if we can help in any way.

Do you have shoulder pain when moving your arm? Maybe it's starting to feel stiff? Maybe you've been diagnosed with tendonitis or frozen shoulder?

There is a lot of misunderstanding about frozen shoulder. Most think of it as the shoulder being stuck or unable to move it. This is actually the end result not the start.

What we understand the process to be is that when we lose optimal control of movement of the shoulder blade (scapulohumeral rhythm), we start to get nerve irritation. This ultimately results in overuse of the long head of the bicep at the front of the shoulder. After too long, this inflammation travels up into the joint. The goal of inflammation is to heal so this inflammation causes scar tissue to build up in the joint. As this grows we lose motion in the shoulder.

The key is to get to this in the initial stage where we have loss of optimal scapular function and perhaps some shoulder pain. Time is of the essence. If corrected at this stage it can save 18-24 months of typical healing time for full blown frozen shoulder with extensive scar tissue formation.

Did you know that Type II Diabetes is the leading risk factor for frozen shoulder and that 50% get it in both shoulders? This makes sense as diabetes causes a cascade of inflammation and when we have inflammation generally in the body, this can accelerate the process of frozen shoulder.
