💥Struggling with back and/or neck pain for more than 3 months?

🏃‍♀️Does your pain limit you in your everyday activities?

🩻 Have you sought medical care for your condition, i.e ongoing doctor visits, scans, procedures and care from physios/chiros with little to no relief of your condition?

✅ If you answered yes to any the above questions, you could benefit from joining the BNAP program.

The Back and Neck Assistance Program (BNAP) is an evidence-based, active rehabilitation program that aims to help you address your pain and improve your quality of life. In this program, you work closely with your physiotherapist to provide you with the knowledge and skills to understand and manage your pain in order to help return you to participating in meaningful life roles.

The program is entirely funded by medical aid. BNAP is covered by your risk benefit and not from your day-to-day savings. Therefore, you will not run out of funds which is typical when the payment comes from day-to-day benefits, savings or cash.

If you belong to the following medical aids, you will be considered for the program:
* GEMS
* Polmed
* Universal Health
* Wooltru
* Bestmed

If you are interested in being an active participant in the program, feel free to contact us at 021 854 3080 or email us at info@strandphysiotherapy.co.za

The Caryn Adam Physiotherapy team would like to wish everyone participating in the Two Oceans Marathon this weekend a special good luck! 📣

🏃‍♂️If you have any pre or post-run niggles, book a sports massage to sort them out.

Benefits of sports massage:
* Assists in muscle recovery and preparation for physical activity
* Improves joint range of motion and reduces stiffness
* Reduces pain and DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness)
* Reduces fatigue perception of muscle
* Increased relaxation and sense of well-being

How to do it:
Lying on your back, bring one knee up to 90 degrees. Use opposite hand to offer resistance at the knee. Gently push your knee out against the hand whilst you exhale. Keep your back flat on the ground and tummy muscles engaged. Hold for 20 seconds, swap sides

How to do it:

Kneel and place your wrist and forearm on top of a stability ball (or chair). Extend your arm straight and keep your head in a neutral position.
As you keep your back flat and your arms straight, lower your chest toward the floor. Sink into the stretch while you press the backs of your palms into the ball. Hold for 5 seconds.
Remain in the stretched position and release the downward tension on the ball for 5 seconds—work toward sinking deeper into the stretch for an added challenge.
