Thanks for you feedback, it's good to know what people find interesting!

Acute torticollis is another term for wry neck. It could be what your wife is having (it is hard to be sure without seeing her, of course) but it sounds like it. The raised trapezius in that case would be the muscle system responding and becoming protective. There is nothing in my experience that would suggest that it would progress or need any botox. What is important is to make sure that at the end of the episode, when it has settled, that she regains full range of movement again and she doesn't have some lingering restriction 😀

@@adelaidewestphysio thanks for your reply doc. So I am assuming Acute Wry Neck and Acute Torticollis are the same.

@@58bang25 that's right

I guess there is, it all comes down to what your current capabilities are. If you have a walking tolerance of 20 mins and you walk for 2 hours, you might find yourself muscle sore, your joint might be swollen and sore as a result too. That amount might be fine for someone else, but for you it is too much at this point in time.

Thanks for that! 😃

Sorry to hear that. Wry necks can hurt a LOT! Typically things will improve over the next few days, whether you use ice or heat is up to you, but I tend to suggest heat to help the muscles to relax a little. You won't do any harm with ice either. Ice can have the effect of reducing pain and muscle activity too, it just comes down to which feels better for you.

@@adelaidewestphysio how long would u wait to have a massage on this area

@bangonfishingadventures4957 personally, I wouldn't rush into it. You'll find that _if it is a wry neck _it will start to improve over the next 24-48 hours, there is a natural resolution that will happen. I'd get an opinion from a physio you trust about how you should manage it from here.

On our RUclips home page there is the full video, a few more good ideas there too if you are interested

Great to hear!!

Hello. You said you've been _working on_ front splits, have you achieved it yet? thanks ❤

Hey there, you might find this video useful by Nicole ruclips.net/video/hYDNF9aFzvY/видео.htmlsi=A3vyAnAV9BS6LShD

Thanks! Agreed, exercise is vital for lots of reasons, and it's amazing what changes it can induce, even in cartilage!!

Thanks for your reply! Not moving enough is key. The body loves movement, it needs it to stay healthy. Pain isn't a measure of damage, it's a measure of protection!

Thanks a lot!

It's good to know she is over there in WA doing good stuff! Glad it helped you 😃

Hiya, it is impossible to give you a good answer without looking at your problem. Fast bowler always means being mindful of stress fractures, the left is the side you might expect to see one. Work with a physio on this, get their help on managing your bowling load as well

A pleasure! Check out our website for a more indepth article on the trigeminocervical complex too

It would be great to never get injured! If you don't have a pain system that works, you will tend to get injured very easily. It's the pain system that protects you.

@@adelaidewestphysio No, I meant that somebody would mangle or break whatever is supposed to cause damage. (For example, a sharp weapon would get badly bent rather than poke and make someone bleed because that person would have 200% armor for flesh.)

​@@cbsteffen I'm not sure I'm quite on the same wavelength to be honest! Armor like that would severely impair our ability to do human things. There's a tradeoff I guess. We have a pretty good alarm system involving vision, hearing, smell, touch and our pain system, immune system etc that does OK most of the time

Systemic inflammation is low level body wide inflammation that has different effects on different systems, with diet and lack of exercise being two of the contirbuting factors. You can read more about here if you are interested: www.adelaidewestphysio.com.au/anti-inflammatory-diet/

If your butt bones start hurting, a couple of things: move more often, vary your position (maybe look at a sit-stand desk) and something softer to sit on. It's OK to slouch some of the time, the key is to know that you are slouching and what the alternatives are

Thanks a lot!

They are fabulous aren't they?

@@adelaidewestphysio no, they aren't! Gorillas are the best 👍👍 Good day madam or sir 😊

@@mgp870 gorillas are amazing too

Thanks very much for your comment. That's our aim! 🙏

I couldn't agree more! 😍

You can hear the chainsaws and the sun shouldn't shine so bright so close to the jungle floor , so there is no real jungle there left, maybe some patches waiting to be logged in the very near future.

Thanks for your feedback. Yep, it's true. Cartilage and joints have the ability to improve with the right amount of loading - not too little and not too much!

Thanks a lot Tom! I really appreciate that

I'm glad you like it. They are beautiful, aren't they?

If you are working in a practice or an environment where electrotherapy is still used a lot, or if your clients expect it, then it is going to be a gradual process to turn that ship around. I imagine you might have to start with reducing the electro and increasing the exercises rather than going cold turkey. We have a constant dialogue about this stuff with patients and have a culture of self efficacy, so it is relatively easy for us, but I recognise that if your culture is an expectation of certain things, it is harder. But you have to start somewhere. How to convince people to do their exercises? Don't give out random exercises. Prescribe exercises that you believe in. Don't give out too many. Don't give them out last in a consult, give them first. Review them first in a consult to give them importance. Biggest tip: when you prescribe an exercise, ask them patient if doing them x times a day is 'doable', then get them to think about when they will do them and plan it before they leave the room.

Those werent eggs ma boi, they where brown

The nests are for sleeping. To keep them safe at night.

@@SS11660 no they are high rise toilets to pizz and shizz in.

Nowhere, as they are not marsupilami from comic books. They build a nest every evening just to sleep in that. The baby orangutan has a very tight grip of the mother's fur with all fours right after the birth, and is being carried everywhere with their mother.

Thanks Guruv, she is a great physio!

The cicadas sound like chainsaws

Thats Cicadas nothing else

You can def hear some kind of circular saw running in the background probably from a nearby sawmill.

I have cicadas outside my home all summer and they are very loud but they do not sound like that. That sounds like an industrial saw. This beautiful being builds this amazing nest but how can he or she get any rest or peace in such a noisy environment. Certainly not like the peace of the forest where they should be. Humans certainly have messed everything up.

So true Jonas!

“Orangs” lmao

Yeah, but that nest on the ground will get her or himself killed by a jaguar.... needs to be up in the tree tops where big heavy predators can't get to. It's pretty cool to see them build though... but mom's nest would've been unfilmable... lol

@@garrettthum6238 yes and no. Yes for orangutans in sumatra island, because the tiger will kill them. But not for orangutans in borneo island, theres's no danger predator except humans.

@@bambangm7606 so then it's yes and yes.

Yes you can! It just makes it super challenging in a different way, you have to control the carriage much more in both directions

You're so welcome!

Thanks for checking it out, Raja

Thanks for watching!

Thanks for the comment. You might want to try using a spikey ball for massaging the sole of the foot, it is simple and you can do it yourself any time!

Hey Amanda, good question! In the next video that we publish there will be an example, but it is a situation where you are using your muscles to create the range of movement, or to control the increase in range of movement. For example, if you want to increase your hamstring flexibility, it might be lifting your straight leg up and controlling that movement rather then bending forwards and letting gravity act on your body to passively stretch the muscle. I hope that helps! 😀

It makes a lot of sense, you just have to do those things now. Thanks for your comment 😃

A bit extreme, Adrian - I hope it doesn't come to that! But whatever it takes to get a good sleep!! It's a bit of a risk with pillows - what if you get it home and you don't like it... At least doing this gives you an idea if it will help, and you can use it more longer term if you want. Otherwise, check out the pillows that have adjustable elements to them. We have one of those kinds of pillows in stock in three different levels of density/softness and height. I might do a video on these to demonstrate! Thanks for your comments Adrian 🙏

Thanks Jon. I feel like this info will be really relevant for the calisthenics girls. There’s more in the pipeline

Thanks Pat! We appreciate your support

Thanks for that feedback Jon. I agree, it's one thing hearing what the top 10 are, but what you want to know is how to avoid them!! 😁 Cheers
