Ladies in your 40’s and beyond - suddenly experiencing tendon problems?

THE EFFECT OF ESTROGEN on your tendon health:
Did you know that a decline in estrogen levels lead to a decrease in collagen production. This can effect your tendon’s ability to take load.
Especially repetitive stress tends to overload the tendons and lead to niggles and pathology.

KNEE OA
DID YOU KNOW: movement is GOOD for knees, even if you are diagnosed with arthritis.
Findings on a scan does not correlate well with pain - many people have radiological changes which are normal with ageing and might not experience any symptoms.
ALSO - running is not bad for your knees….. contrary to what you have been told 20/30 years ago:-)
MOVEMENT IS MEDICINE!

WORLD PHYSIOTHERAPY DAY
Proud to be part of a profession that makes a difference in people’s lives - restoring movement, increasing confidence through addressing pain and movement restrictions. Rehabilitation back to previous levels of functioning. Giving hope and reducing fear through education. Sometimes it is giving a word of encouragement, a hug, a listening ear. We give a lot of ourselves emotionally. But it is such a rewarding occupation! I thank God that I am able to do this!

You and your ‘CORE’
Take home message from me - there is no ONE exercise to fix a back. Move your body!

There still is way too much focus on core exercises when you have back pain

These are said to reduce pain, improve stability, and prevent reoccurrence better than other exercises or treatments!

But yet again despite common assumptions there is no evidence that they do any of these things

Thats not to say they are any worse than other exercises, but bird dogs, planks or pilates are NOT your only options if you’ve got back issues!

Shoulder painful arc syndrome
(Previously often refered to as impingement syndrome)

Refers to shoulder pain usually between 60-120 degr of shoulder elevation.
You may have night pain - often from sleeping on that shoulder. With passive elevation, there is no pain.
Common causes: rotator cuff tendinopathy/tear, bursitis, calcific tendonitis, AC joint pathology.

Consult with your physiotherapist of you have these symptoms for treatment options during the acute, sub-acute and later stages of these symptoms.
