Pain isn’t always what it seems. While it often signals injury, chronic pain can also arise when the nervous system becomes oversensitive, sending amplified alerts even when tissues are healthy ⚡. Imagine your body’s warning system as a microphone turned up too high — normal signals suddenly feel loud and urgent.
Physiotherapists help patients understand these signals, working to retrain the nervous system, improve movement 🏃, and restore confidence in the body. By addressing both the “hardware” (muscles, joints, tissues 💪🦴) and the “software” (nervous system messaging 🧠💻), physiotherapy supports lasting relief and function.
Have you ever felt pain that didn’t seem linked to an injury? Share your experience below 👇 or call 6282 5898 (Deakin) or 6254 9889 (Higgins) to explore how physiotherapy may help tune the system back down.

Physiotherapy Insight 🌿
Pelvic floor challenges can be frustrating, uncomfortable, and sometimes even isolating — but you’re not alone.
The science? The levator ani group and deep core muscles like the transverse abdominis work together to maintain internal pressure, stability, and control. If one part isn’t activating correctly, others compensate, which can lead to fatigue, discomfort, and reduced bladder or core function.
Specialised physiotherapy targets these muscles, retraining strength, timing, and coordination. Even subtle improvements in muscle activation can make a meaningful difference, helping you regain confidence, comfort, and function in daily life.
If you’re noticing changes in your pelvic floor or need postnatal support, visit www.tmphysio.com.au/.

Jump Your Way Through December! 🦘✨
Add a little lift to your day — literally! Jumping isn’t just for kids or kangaroos. It strengthens your calf muscles, quads, glutes, and core, boosts bone density, and improves balance and coordination. Each jump also gives your cardiovascular system a workout, helping circulation and heart health.
The rapid muscle contractions during jumping use what’s called the stretch–shortening cycle — training your muscles and tendons to store and release energy efficiently. This enhances balance, coordination, and power, which all help protect joints and prevent falls.
And don’t forget the heart! That burst of movement boosts circulation and cardiovascular fitness, delivering oxygen and nutrients to tissues more effectively.
So skip, hop, or jump rope your way through December — your bones, muscles, and heart will all thank you.
What’s your favourite way to add bounce to your routine? Tell us below or call 6282 5898 (Deakin) or 6254 9889 (Higgins) to keep your step springy this season! 💪

Word of the Day: Joint 🦵
Pronunciation: /dʒɔɪnt/
Etymology: From the Latin junctus — “joined” — the past participle of jungere, meaning to join or connect. The word passed through Old French (joint) before settling into Middle English with its modern spelling and sense.
Historically, “joint” described any point of connection — whether in carpentry, conversation, or anatomy. In physiology, it refers to the meeting place between two or more bones — the marvel of mechanics that makes movement possible.
There are three main types: Fibrous joints (immovable, like the skull), cartilaginous joints (slightly moveable, like the spine), and synovial joints (freely moveable, like the knee or shoulder).
Physiotherapists focus on keeping these joints strong, stable, and supple — ensuring that every connection in your body moves in harmony.
