Get active. Have fun 😁 Find something you love to do.♥️ If you need assistance getting back to the things you love or want to start a new activity, talk to one of our active physios. We often get asked
"what do you do to stay fit?" Physio Sam loves dance and boxing. And of course being a mum of young kids means you never sit down 🤣

Meet happy C6 😊 the 6th vertebra bone of the neck. It helps support your head and neck, protects the spinal cord and facilitates a variety of movement like toattaion on flexion of the neck. The nerves that exit here help control bending your elbow, rotating the forearm, extending your wrist. It also contributes to function of some of the muscles around the shoulder.

Movember: More Than a Moustache

Did you know?
- In South Africa, 1 in 16 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer.
- Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men over 40, both locally and globally.
- Testicular cancer is the most common cancer in men under 40.
- South Africa has the 10th highest su***de rate in the world, and 79% of those affected are men.

Men often feel pressure to “stay strong” but silence can be dangerous. It’s time to talk, check, and take action.

This Movember, the Pelvic & Women’s Health Physiotherapy Group (PWHPG) encourages all men to:
- Do regular self “nuts & bolts” checks.
- Get annual PSA blood tests after age 40 (earlier if you have a family history).
- Reach out for support, physiotherapy can help with incontinence, pelvic pain, recovery after cancer, and returning to exercise safely.

Let’s start conversations that save lives.
Because men’s health is more than physical, it’s mental, emotional, and vital.
