We are lucky to have Julie as our local Peterborough Physiotherapist. She really is very professional and awesome! Julie grew up in Peterborough and was a competitive athlete in soccer and hockey. Being exposed early to the benefits of physical therapy in treating her own injuries, she discovered her passion for helping others get back to doing the things they love. She did her undergraduate degree at University of Toronto in Physical and Health Education and enjoyed playi...ng varsity soccer. She went on to complete a Bachelor of Science Physical Therapy degree at University of Toronto in 1999. She has post graduate education in manual therapy techniques, Level 3 acupuncture, neural mobilization, vestibular rehab, concussion management, chronic pain and advanced exercise prescription. She is also GLA:D certified (training to work with individuals who have osteoarthritis). Julie takes a hands on/active/educational approach to developing and personalizing a treatment plan that assists her clients back to function and returning them to the activities they enjoy doing. Her strength is actively listening to her clients needs and empathetically working with them in collaboration to achieve their goals. Areas of professional interest include sacro-iliac joint dysfunction, shoulder injuries, arthritic conditions, post surgical rehab and chronic pain management. In her free time, Julie is an avid sports fan, enjoys music, cooking and entertaining, traveling around the world with her camera and spending quality time with family and friends. If you’re interested in living an active pain free life, Julie can help you achieve that.

What is a Sprained Ankle? Ankle sprains are a common injury often caused by twisting or rolling the ankle while playing a sport or simply by walking on uneven ground. The result can be sharp pain on the inside or outside of the ankle, swelling, bruising or inability to walk on that foot. There are three bones that make up the ankle joint. In order for these bones to hold up the weight of the body they require strong ligaments to hold them together. These ligaments prevent... it from twisting too far inward (inversion) or outward (eversion). When we forcefully bend the ankle in these directions, we can tear the ligaments partially or fully. Treatment Immediate treatment includes rest, ice, compression and elevation (RICE). Take the time to relax. Recline with your foot elevated higher than your heart, wrapped in a tensor, with a bag of pees (or cold pack) on it. More severe sprains may require an air cast, splint or crutches. Further treatment includes strengthening, stretching and proprioceptive exercises to get back on your feet or back to your sport. It is important to slowly progress exercises to avoid further damage to the ligaments. A good rule of thumb is to progress to a new exercise only if it is pain free. During sports physiotherapy or chiropractic treatment, your therapist will work with you to design exercises to slowly build you muscles back. For more questions, feel free to reach us.

What is Rotator Cuff Injury? The Rotator cuff is a group of four muscles that move and stabilize the shoulder. These muscles include the supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor and subscapularis. When these muscles or their tendons are damaged it can cause pain along the front or side of the arm and neck pain. Other symptoms include inability to lift the above shoulder level or to reach behind your back. Treatment... Treatment for rotator cuff tendinopathy includes rest, ice, range of motion and strengthening exercises. REST- As with most injuries to the arm it is important to limit heavy lifting. With the rotator cuff we also have to avoid overhead activities such as lifting something off a shelf and repetitive activities such as painting. ICE can be placed on the shoulder to reduce swelling. This is particularly important immediately after you perform an activity that causes you pain to prevent swelling in the rst place. We will show some range of motion and strengthening exercises in our next post. So stay tuned!

[Diabetic Foot Care Tips] If you have Diabetes, you know that your feet require special attention. I'd like to share our top 5 tips to take the best care of your feet. 1. Check your feet daily for cuts, blisters, bruises, cracked skin, colour changes and swelling. Use a mirror to inspect the soles of both feet if you are unable to reach.... 2. To protect your feet from injury, avoid walking barefoot as much as possible, even around the house. 3. Before you put on your shoes, check inside for stones, sharp objects, and rough places inside the uppers and on the sock liners. 4. Wash your feet with soap and water every day, taking care to gently clean between your toes, and dry very well, especially between the toes. 5. Do not apply cream between your toes as too much moisture may cause blisters, cracks and fungal infections. See your We-Fix-U chiropodist on a regular basis for foot care and check ups. Early detection and treatment of a foot problem is always best.

What is the best Cardiovascular exercise for back pain patients? As one well known spinal surgeon said: I do not care what they dojust get them moving.... Whilst this may be a little simplistic the message is clear - do whatever the person can do that raises their heart rate to a suitable level and keeps it there for as long as necessary. In our experience swimming is a great option (assuming the person can swim well for 20-30 minutes), however some low back patients can do a CV program on the stationary cycle, treadmill or even stepper; depending on their individual condition and level of pain. You may need to try small sessions on each apparatus and check for pain during and after the sessions. Note: Please remember that all back pain is different and needs to be fully assessed by a trained professional before embarking on a CV program speak to your local We-Fix-U Physiotherapist today for help.
