The temporomandibular consists of two joints between your cheek bone and jaw bone and it is the most commonly used joint in your body for eating, drinking, talking, and expressing emotions. The most common symptoms include grinding, jaw clicking, and popping, restriction of the joint or deviation while opening, and inability to clench your jaw completely. Dysfunction of this joint can cause headaches, ear pain, dizziness, upper neck pain, and ear ringing (tinnitus). Together with help from your Dentist, Physios can assess and treat for pain relief including; massage, dry needling, coordinated mobility exercises, and stretches. TMJ treatment is offered at all our Sydney physiotherapy locations except Mt Pritchard and Macarthur.

Sports injuries can occur during any sporting activity or gym session. The most common sports injuries include sprains and strains/tears, which can be categorised as being an acute, chronic or an overuse injury.

The purpose of a musculoskeletal athlete screen is to develop a clinical picture of an athlete’s capability regarding their sport. Athletes require strength, range of motion and co-ordination, not only to maximise their performance, but reduce the risk of injury. During the screening process the athlete is asked to perform a battery of tests and the results of these tests are compared to normative values to identify areas which may place the athlete at risk of injury. Injury prevention should be the top priority for all athletes to maximise their performance, and longevity of their sporting careers. Musculoskeletal athlete screening is offered at all our Sydney physiotherapy locations.

Kinesiology tape (K-tape, kinesio tape, rocktape, dynamic tape) is a form of stretchy sports tape that’s used to dynamically assist muscle function without restricting any range of movement.

The biomechanics of the human body can be viewed in many different functional tasks such as walking, running, squat and overhead lifting.
