Physiotherapy After A Car Accident: Were you recently involved in a motor vehicle accident?

Increase Your Bone Strength

Increase Your Bone Strength – Physiotherapy Parramatta

In order to learn how to increase bone strength, we must first understand what our bones are. Bones are living tissues, and the body is constantly replacing old bone with new bone. As we get older, our bodies don’t replace new bone quick enough, which makes our bones weaker.

There are two important things that we should remember when it comes to increasing our bone strength.

1. Weight-bearing exercise


Weight-bearing exercise simply means any kind of exercise that requires us to be on our feet. This means that sitting or lying down for long periods of time is not good for our bones.

The less weight bearing exercise we do, the weaker our bones get.

This is similar to what happens to astronauts when they come back from space. The strength of their bones is significantly lower and they can end up with osteoporosis, which basically means brittle bones.

2. Good nutrition


When it comes to good nutrition there are two vital minerals we need to help build strong bones. They are Calcium and Vitamin D. One cannot go without the other.

Basically without Vitamin D, our body will not absorb calcium well. And we need calcium to build strong bones.

As a simple starting point, you can get calcium from milk and vitamin D from the sun, but it is always good to get your calcium and vitamin D levels checked by your local doctor.

Migraines: Cause and Treatment

Migraines are similar to a headaches but a lot worse in terms of discomfort and lost productive time.Migraine can be caused due to tight muscles and stiff joints in the Cervical spine. They can affect children and adults equally. There is no specific age group where migraines are more prevalent. Individuals could suffer migraines from childhood all the way to middle age and beyond. With these statistics, its important to seek treatment at an early stage.

Common treatments

There are a range of treatments which can reduce symptoms of migraines. There are also preventive techniques you can use to make sure that you don’t have frequent migraines in the future.

Medication : Over the counter medication like paracetamol. However, it has been recommended that you only use these types of medication when the migraine is not severe. When you are in intense pain, you should seek medical advice from your GP.

Physiotherapy: Physiotherapy is a natural way to treat physical causes of migraines. Physiotherapists can assist by reducing muscle tension and mobilising stiff joints. Physiotherapists can also teach you exercises, stretches and postural control to prevent migraines from occuring in the first place.

Conclusion

Migraines are an incredibly painful and unpleasant condition to experience. They are very common, especially among the younger population and can last for a long time. Finding out what causes your migraines and what treatment options are available is of paramount importance. Contact Physiotherapy Professionals Parramatta today to find out more.
