COVID – 19

Like many of our clients we are aware of the impact the Coronavirus is having on our community and have implemented further precautions to limit the risk of infection to our clients and in our clinic.
We are following recommendations from NSW Health and our Physiotherapy Association to reduce the risk of COVID-19 spreading.

These include:
Regular cleaning of the clinic, Pilates studios, equipment, furniture etc
Continued good hand washing hygiene before and after each client
Hand sanitiser is available in the clinic and Pilates studios

We request any clients to reconsider or delay treatment if they have flu like symptoms or have travelled to internationally known hot spots in recent weeks.

We are providing telehealth appointments for clients who are unable to attend the clinic due to the risk of infecting others.

We have unfortunately had to close our Pilates studio as we feel we must to be doing our duty in the fight against COVID-19. We are running classes online (through Zoom), please email us for more information or book through Mindbody.

Benefits of Physical Activity

Today we’re looking at Physical Activity as part of Women’s Health Week and the many benefits to your health.

Recommended amount of physical activity per week:

  • Be active everyday (this can be walking to get a coffee, grabbing a bit to eat for lunch or hopping off the bus one stop early)
  • Do muscle strengthening exercises 2 times per week – this can be swimming, weights at the gym or Pilates
  • 2 ½ – 5 hours or moderate exercise per week or 1 ¼ or 2 ½ hours of intense exercise per week

The Benefits of Being Physically Active

  • Reduce risk of chronic disease such as diabetes, heart disease, osteoporosis
  • Reduce the symptoms of osteoarthritis
  • Improve blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar levels
  • Assist in maintaining a healthy weight
  • Build strong muscles and bones
  • Great for mental health

Tips on how to be active:

  • Get up more often at work (set your alarm every 30 minutes)
  • Take the stairs rather than the lift
  • Walk to the shops rather than driving
  • Get a buddy to exercise with
  • Join the gym or a group training class
  • Come to Physio On Miller for Pilates

“I put off seeing a physio for so long, simply because I didn’t think they could do anything to help me. After I eventually went to see Melissa at Physio on Miller, I was kicking myself I didn’t go earlier.  The facilities are top-class, and Melissa and the team are friendly, extremely professional and knowledgeable.  Most importantly they got me back into half marathon training again, minus the pain,” Anna, Manly.
