Proprioception is your body quietly telling your brain, “I’ve got this, trust me.” 🧠
The word comes from Latin proprius, meaning “one’s own,” and capere, meaning “to grasp.” Together, it literally means “to grasp one’s own.” In other words, your body is constantly checking in, letting your brain know where your limbs are and how they’re moving - without you watching.
After an injury, proprioception can falter. Muscles, tendons, and joints may not communicate as clearly, making balance wobbly and movements less precise. Physiotherapy retrains these internal sensors with balance exercises, wobble boards, and targeted movement drills, helping you move safely, reduce re-injury risk, and regain confidence.
Try a mini test: stand on one leg with your eyes closed. That subtle sway? Your proprioception at work.
Call 6282 5898 (Deakin) or 6254 9889 (Kippax) if you’d like to work on sharpening your body’s internal GPS.

Long drives sound like freedom…the open road, the world in front of you… until your body disagrees 🚗😅
Somewhere between the first playlist and the third coffee stop, your back stiffens, your neck tightens, and your hips start trying to negotiate an early exit. Car seats don’t always make great ergonomic partners - but you can still take back a bit of control.
Sit as upright as the seat allows, with your hips right back. A small towel behind your lower back can add support, and adjusting your mirrors can stop that creeping chin-forward posture. Keep your shoulders relaxed and your knees slightly bent.
When you stop (which you should…often), keep it simple. Roll your shoulders, gently lean back with hands on hips, stretch your calves, and make sure you walk for a couple of minutes 🚶♂️
Small resets can make a long drive feel a lot shorter.
If the drive got to you and you’re feeling more like a circus contortionist than a free-spirit exploring the open road, call us on 6282 5898 (Deakin) or 6254 9889 (Kippax) to make an appointment here at TM Physio - we’ll work with you to get you moving freely, not folding awkwardly. 🚗✨

Pain is not just about tissues - it also involves the nervous system. 🧠
Your body has specialised sensors called nociceptors. These receptors detect potential threats such as pressure, inflammation, or extreme temperatures. Signals travel through the spinal cord to the brain, where the brain decides whether to create the experience of pain.
This system is designed to protect you. Touch something hot and you immediately pull your hand away 👍 - a fast, helpful response.
But sometimes the system becomes a little overprotective. After injury or ongoing stress, the nervous system can remain more sensitive than usual.
This means pain does not always equal damage. The tricky part is that it can be hard to tell the difference.
If you are living with ongoing pain and cannot find a clear cause, our physiotherapists can help you better understand what may be driving it.
Call 6282 5898 (Deakin) or 6254 9889 (Kippax) to make an appointment and start getting some answers. 📞
