There are few things in life that are more annoying and disabling than acute lower back pain. Often you are in too much pain to sit, stand, drive, walk, sleep, look after your kids, play sport, go to work… the list goes on.

The shoulder is one of the most mobile joints in the body and allows movement in a number of different directions. We need adequate mobility in our shoulders to enable us to do various activities in our daily lives – hanging the washing on the line, putting on a shirt or even throwing a ball. Unfortunately the shoulder sacrifices stability for this mobility and this is why it is vulnerable to injury and the most commonly dislocated joint in the body. However there are some things we can control to improve stability of the shoulder joint through movement.
We would like to congratulate Lisa, one of our physiotherapists, who has been awarded a fulltime Government Research Training Program Scholarship to complete her PhD. Lisa works at our Blacktown rooms and is currently completing her PhD at the University of Sydney. She is looking at creating a health model involving physiotherapists and GPs to help improve the diagnosis and treatment of people with a chronic lung condition called Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. We wish her all the best in her studies!
