Welcome to our new pilates instructors, Elin and Maxine 😊

Have you ever seen those stainless steel tools used during a massage and wondered what they’re for? 🤔

Known as muscle scraping (or Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilisation - IASTM), this technique is more than just a social media trend. Research suggests it may help reduce pain, improve mobility, ease muscle tightness, and support recovery when used as part of the right treatment plan.

At Realign Physio & Co, our massage therapist incorporates muscle scraping into sports massage when clinically appropriate, and it can also be included in remedial massage upon request.

But does it really “break up scar tissue” or “release toxins”? The science says... not exactly.

We’ve unpacked what muscle scraping actually does, the benefits supported by research, and who it may be suitable for in our latest blog.

🔗 Head to the link in our bio to read the full article and find out if muscle scraping could help you move and feel better.

Mid-year body check… How’s your body really feeling?

We often check in on our finances, careers and goals—but when was the last time you checked in on your body?

It’s easy to brush off stiffness, aches or reduced mobility as “normal.” But those little niggles can slowly become bigger problems if they’re ignored.

👉 Swipe through these 7 signs your body might be asking for attention.

If you find yourself nodding along to a few of them, it might be time to stop pushing through the pain and start taking care of the body that gets you through every day.

The earlier you address a problem, the easier it usually is to treat—and often, it only takes a few small changes to get you moving and feeling better again.

At Realign Physio & Co, we’re here to help you move with confidence through:
-Physiotherapy
-Exercise Physiology
-Clinical Pilates
-Remedial Massage
-Personal Training

Don’t wait until the pain stops you from doing what you love.

Make the second half of the year your healthiest and strongest yet. 💙

4 hip flexors stretches for you!
Tight hip flexors can limit hip extension, making your lower back work harder during everyday movements.
If you spend hours sitting, your hip flexors stay in a shortened position. Regular stretching can reduce stiffness, improve hip mobility, and make standing and walking feel more comfortable.

Winter is here, and for many people that means heading to the snow! While skiing and snowboarding are great fun, they can also put a lot of stress on your body. Skiers often experience knee injuries, while snowboarders are more prone to wrist and shoulder injuries from falls.
The good news? Preparation can help reduce your risk. Strength training, balance exercises, mobility work, and a proper warm-up can all help you stay safer and perform better on the slopes.
Planning a snow trip this season? Now is the perfect time to get your body slope-ready!
Read our June blog post for practical tips on injury prevention, recovery, and preparing for the snow. Find the link in our bio! ❄️
