Scientists began exploring the potential use of shockwaves (sound waves) on human tissue in the 1960s and 70s, and by the 80s shockwaves began to be used to break up kidney stones and gallstones 😅. This technology has been adapted to successfully treat conditions such as:

🌟Tendon disorders
🌟Myo-fascial pain (pain in muscle & fascia - what we love to use it for at FFC!)
🌟Osteoarthritis
🌟Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
🌟Sciatica and Back pain

Other conditions treated with shockwave therapy include: nerve entrapment, ligament injuries, low back and neck pain.

No additional fees for use of shockwave therapy at our Morley or Southern River location. New Consult bookings available by the link: https://www.formfunctionchiro.com.au/contact-booking

It's important to consider scoliosis not only during adolescence but as adults too! With one sided sports or working predominately with one side of the body such as brick laying among many other factors, jobs, activities ect. You may develop adult scoliosis that could have been prevented.

Complications resulting from adult onset scoliosis include: pain of varying severity from such things as spinal stenosis, nerve compression or disc bulging, loss of height (stature), shortness of breath from lung compression, premature feeling of fullness from associated abdominal pressure.

What to do:
- supervised weight lifting
- postural training
- manual therapy
- weight management
- activity modification

❌ INJURY MANAGEMENT ❌

🥇 INJURY RESOLUTION 🥇 is Something we are REALLY passionate about...
It's very common to hear about injury management, and we think it's very important to remember that injuries shouldn't last forever nor should they require constant "management". When we think managed, we think issue addressed and fixed!

When we experience injury we should look to educate ourselves on the why and how and find a way to resolve the issue that is resulting in pain. Sometimes this looks like an athlete learning about the biomechanics of the elbow and how to strengthen the elbow so that it is well balanced in its function and able to endure the load we are requiring of it, without pain. Rather than feeling that the pain is acceptable given the demand the sport has on it. It's important to know that although pain can occur after a diagnosis of an injury, it should go away once we educate ourselves and tackle all of the components of the problem. If pain is reoccurring we need to consider whether the pain generating structure has been identified and treated correctly, and whether knowledge (injury education) around the issue is sufficient.

Pain is never normal or to be expected.
