Have you ever been told you've "done a disc" or "s

Have you ever been told you've "done a disc" or "slipped a disc" in your low back?

It might sound scary and you probably have some questions. What is a disc? What have I done? Can I be fixed? 😟😟

Let's start with what a spinal disc actually is. You have them all through your spine, they sit between all your vertebrae. They serve a really great purpose, and that's cushioning! We spend our days doing lots of activities, all those activities put force through our spine, what the discs do is absorb some of that force. Why is this so important? It keeps us moving! It allows the spine to flex and move as it needs to, gives us the movement to keep up with our busy days.

So what happens in a disc injury? There's a few different terms we might use when talking about your disc injury and they range from mild to more severe. The damage we do occurs in what we call the annulus fibrosus, the outer circle of the disc - it's the stronger part of the disc. Depending on the damage we've done there, the inner part of the disc called the nucleus pulposus may begin to push outwards from where it should be. This may be called a disc bulge or herniation.

One thing we don't want you to do is be filled with worry if you have a disc injury. In fact if you did a scan of every body, many people would have disc bulges that they didn't even know about or feel! 🤯

If you do have a disc injury that is causing you pain or worry, osteopathic treatment may be able to help. Osteopaths can help encourage movement in the joints, and may help ease your pain. They're also able to give you advice for at home to get you back to doing what you love faster 😄

Have you been wondering what the difference is between an osteopath and a chiropractor? You may find the answer in the new blog by Dr Tristan Joss 😄

Explaining the specific differences between osteopathy and chiro can be quite difficult. Even for those of us who are osteopaths! The main reason for that is we can only speak for our own profession, not that of others.

If you are still wondering though, a big difference from what we can see is that chiropractors focus on spinal health and osteopaths look at the whole body as a functional unit. 🤯

Have you been wondering what an osteopath does during your appointment? 🤔⁠
⁠
After taking an in-depth history about why you've come in, an osteopath will perform a thorough assessment of your body. This is to get a better understanding of what might be going on in the area, and the surrounding joints and tissues. Osteopaths use the information they gather during this stage of your consultation to understand where your pain might be coming from and why. From there, they can help you find the best management plan for your issue. ⁠
⁠
When it comes to treatment, your osteopath will have a variety of techniques they might use. These include stretching, massaging, mobilisation, manipulation and exercise rehabilitation. These are all designed to reduce tissue stress, get you back to moving better and feeling better. ⁠
⁠
If you're interested in booking a consultation with us, you can give us a call on (03) 9859 5059, or book online using the link in our bio!! 😍⁠

Do you have shoulder pain? Have you ever heard the

Do you have shoulder pain? Have you ever heard the words rotator cuff followed by impingement or tear? 🥴⁠
⁠
The rotator cuff is made up of four muscles around the shoulder. The supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor, and subscapularis. These muscles have a role in your arm movements - like lifting and turning your arm in or out. ⁠
⁠
Sometimes, we can injure this area. We might find ourselves loading our shoulder joint more than we're able to or used to. This can cause a tear or an irritation of the muscles tendons. When this happens we might see pain, tenderness and weakness. ⁠
⁠
Your osteopath is trained to be able to diagnose an issue with the rotator cuff, and they can help you with a management plan to get you back to doing all the things you love.⁠
⁠
If you've been experiencing shoulder pain and you'd like an appointment with one of our osteopaths, you can give the clinic a call on (03) 9859 5059, or click the link in our bio and book online 😍

NEW BLOG POST!! 🥳🥳

In this blog by Dr Elise Fuller, we look at why sitting can be linked to your back pain 🤨

We see the same story in so many of our patients, back pain seemingly without a cause, and yet it's there. Once we dive into your history we might see that you've been sitting a lot perhaps for work. It doesn't seem like such a simple activity could cause back pain but it definitely does!

If you're curious about the reason why sitting may be causing your pain have a read of Elise's blog using the link in our bio!! 😄

When all you want to do is enjoy your time as a family with your new baby, it can be incredibly distressing to have that interrupted by breast pain from conditions like blocked ducts, mastitis and engorgement. 😟⁠
⁠
We love to see the enjoyment our patients get from their breastfeeding experience when it goes well, and we hate to see that change to frustration, pain and fear when it doesn't. That's one of the reasons our osteopaths are so passionate about helping women through their breastfeeding journey. 🥰 ⁠
⁠
Our practice offers treatment for a variety of breastfeeding related conditions and pain. Our osteopaths have developed their skills for this type of treatment over a number of years, and they continue to develop and learn more so they can help the women who walk through our clinic doors. Not only this, our aim is to teach you the skills you need so that you can help yourself in the comfort of your own home and keep breastfeeding your little one pain free. ⁠
⁠
If you would like to learn more or book an appointment you can give our staff a call on (03) 9859 5059, or jump onto our website linked in our description!!⁠
⁠
Alternatively, check out our sister company @yourtwojugs, for online masterclasses on how to treat your breastfeeding related pain from home!⁠
