Runner’s Knee is a very common complaint we hear about in (you guessed it…) runners! It’s official name is patellofemoral pain syndrome, but basically it causes pain behind the knee cap during loading exercises such as running, jumping or squatting

Headaches are an extremely common complaint, but having headaches daily or even a few times a week isn’t actually normal. If you have had them for as long as you can remember, physiotherapy can help! And it might be something you haven’t thought of (or tried) yet!

Shoulder bursitis is a very common complaint that we see a lot of here at Sunny Side Physio! If left for too long, it can be quite a debilitating, painful injury that takes a long time to resolve without proper intervention.

During my time as a physio, I have developed a few golden rules that I follow (and tell my family and friends to follow) to help avoid injury or improve your recovery times! Continue reading to find out what they are and feel free to save this for later in case you need it down the track!

Achilles tendinopathy is a common injury we see in the clinic here at Sunny Side Physio.

The Achilles is a very strong and robust band of tissue that connects your calf muscle to the heel of your foot. Whilst we mainly see this condition occur in young, active people or middle aged (especially around menopause) – it can happen to anyone!

Have you recently strained your hamstring? Or know somebody who has? It’s a very common injury, especially among football players and runners. Not only can it be quite painful, but there’s also a high rate of re-injury. This means rehab needs to be thorough and should address both movements at the hip and the knee for best results. It’s recommended to do this under the guidance of a physiotherapist to get you back to sport and avoid re-injury in the future!
