The Performance Matrix – You clean your teeth but do you do retraining?

Look after your body like you look after your teeth.

 

Most of us regularly visit the dentist for a check up.  We take advice on oral hygiene and even have a scale and polish.  We then try to maintain things with regular brushing, flossing and use of mouth wash and then revisit the dentist 6 months later to get checked out again.

 

So why don’t  we treat the rest of our body with the same respect and do retraining exercises to improve our musculoskeltal health?  In part it is because it’s new and not the norm, we don’t know how to look after ourselves and also because bad breath and missing teeth are socially more noticeable and less acceptable than a few aches and poor posture .

 

The Performance Matrix is an effective screening tool to help identify movement faults within the body.  We can then prescribe simple exercises (retraining) to correct these faults that can be done for 2 minutes twice a day to help improve our physical well being. Find. Analyse. Fix.

 

The philosophy is simple.  We just need the dedication to help ourselves lead a healthier lifestyle.

Pad/Tablet User?

Recently I am seeing more neck, thoracic and arm pain related to the use of tablets/iPads etc.

Patients need to be more aware of the position and posture they adopt when using phones and tablets as unlike desk tops they are not designed to be used for extended periods.
