Greetings

Welcome to the In Balance Physiotherapy newsletter.

Running injuries can be a frustrating setback for any athlete. Whether you’re a casual runner or a marathon runner, learning how to prevent and treat common running injuries, such as runner’s knee and shin splints, is key to keeping you active.

The terms physiotherapy and Occupational Therapy are often used interchangeably, but they are two distinct therapies. Physiotherapy focuses on improving mobility and function; it helps to relieve pain, increase range of motion, and develop gross motor skills.

On the other hand, occupational therapy focuses on improving your ability to perform daily tasks, such as dressing and eating, among others. Occupational Therapy helps to improve fine and gross motor skills, allowing you to perform your daily activities independently.

While physiotherapy and Occupational Therapy focus on different things, they both enhance overall functioning and improve quality of life. 

World Arthritis Day is celebrated every year on October 12th and is supported by a year-long campaign to raise global awareness about arthritis.

The debilitating effects of arthritic diseases are not well known, but their impact is often felt silently. World Arthritis Day aims to inform people around the world about the signs and symptoms of these diseases, preventative measures, and the importance of early diagnosis and treatment for optimal quality of life.

The ultimate goal of World Arthritis Day is to improve the lives of individuals affected by these diseases. 

Here are two simple recipes to enjoy for lunch or dinner.
