🌟 Introducing Shruti! 🌟

We're excited to welcome Shruti to the Back In Motion Ballarat & Bacchus Marsh team! 💙

Shruti is passionate about helping people of all ages move better, feel stronger, and get back to doing the things they love. Whether it's recovering from a sporting injury, overcoming persistent neck, back or shoulder pain, or rebuilding confidence after a stroke, she's dedicated to helping her patients achieve meaningful goals.

With a special interest in paediatric physiotherapy and neurological rehabilitation, Shruti enjoys supporting both children and adults on their rehabilitation journey. After completing postgraduate training in paediatric physiotherapy, she has developed a particular interest in helping children with developmental and neurological conditions, including Cerebral Palsy. Through fun, play-based therapy sessions, she helps children build confidence, independence, and new skills while making therapy enjoyable.

What Shruti loves most about physiotherapy is building relationships with her patients and celebrating every milestone along the way, no matter how big or small. ❤️

Outside the clinic, you'll often find her spending time with her three dogs 🐾 or in the garden growing her own vegetables 🌱.
Please join us in giving Shruti a warm welcome in the comments! 👋

Had a great time at the ACU Ballarat Open Day meeting the next generation of physiotherapists.

It was fantastic to chat with so many enthusiastic and motivated students who are keen to pursue a career in private practice. Their curiosity, energy, and willingness to learn were great to see.

Jay and Sanhita were proud to represent our multi-disciplinary, multi-site Healthia Hub and Back In Motion portfolio, sharing the opportunities available for students and future graduates.

Looking forward to welcoming more student placements in the coming months and continuing to support the next generation of physios on their journey.

This qualitative study aims to explore: ✨ Experiences and behaviours of recreational runners during the perinatal period

✨ Experiences related to pelvic floor dysfunction
✨ Barriers and facilitators to accessing healthcare for pelvic floor concerns

Your experiences may help improve understanding and support for others navigating running and pelvic health during this stage of life.

❤️🌿 Happy Valentine’s Day — Show Your Gut Some Love! 🌿❤️

Did you know your gut microbiome contains around 38–40 trillion bacteria, weighs about 1–2 kg, and functions like a metabolic organ?

Research suggests that eating 30 different plant-based foods per week supports a healthier gut microbiome.

Not 30 servings…
👉 30 different plant foods.

Think: 🥦 Veggies
🍎 Fruits
🌾 Wholegrains
🫘 Legumes
🥜 Nuts & seeds
🌿 Herbs & spices

🌈 How many colours have you added to your plate today?

A healthy gut supports immunity, hormones, energy — and even pelvic health.

This Valentine’s Day, feed the microbes that love you back 💕

Drop a 🌈 if you’re taking the 30-plant challenge!

🌿 Strong Team. Stronger Care. 🌿

This weekend our Back In Motion team took some time out for our “Reset & Reconnect” retreat — a chance to recharge, build connections, and spend quality time together outside the clinic.

Because the care we give our community starts with a team that feels supported, connected, and valued 🤍

There were plenty of laughs, good food, games, and great conversations — and we were lucky to have partners join us too, making it even more special.

We’re coming back refreshed, energised, and ready to continue helping our community live, move, and feel better every day 💚
Thank you for trusting us with your health — we love being part of this community.

Sunlight ☀️
The sound of water 💧
The rustle of leaves 🍃
And the comfort of family 🤍
Moments like these calm the nervous system — and when the body softens, the pelvic floor does too.
Rest, gentle movement, and presence are powerful forms of self-care 🧘‍♀️✨
Slow down. Breathe. Let your body reset 🌬️🤍

Don’t wait for pain to slow you down 🚫🩹

Taking up a new goal 🏃‍♀️🎯 or getting back into activity?

Simple prep habits help your body absorb load, move efficiently, and stay resilient 💪 — reducing the risk of injury before it starts.

Whether it’s sport 🏸, work 💼, or everyday movement 🚶‍♂️, preparing your joints and muscles properly means fewer setbacks and more confidence in how you move ✨.

Not sure where to start?

An injury prevention assessment 🧠📋 can identify weaknesses, movement patterns, and risk factors before pain appears.

At Back In Motion Ballarat we help you stay one step ahead of injury 👣 so you can keep doing what you love ❤️.

🏏 Shoulder Pain in Cricket?

Ever wondered why shoulders get sore so easily with bowling, throwing, or overhead work? Let’s keep it simple 👇

🏌️ The Shoulder Joint
Think of your shoulder like a golf ball on a tee
🟡 Ball = upper arm bone (humerus)
🟢 Tee = shallow socket on the shoulder blade (glenoid)

👉 Great for movement, but less stable — which means easier to overload and injure.

⚙️ How the shoulder works
Designed for movement first, strength second
It allows:
🏋️ Lifting | 🎯 Throwing | 🏏 Bowling | 🤲 Catching

Because of this, it relies heavily on muscle coordination.

💪 Rotator cuff = key player
Small muscles that control the shoulder during every bowl and throw
Think guy ropes holding a tent pole ⛺
If they’re weak, tight, or overworked → pain starts.

🫧 Why it hurts
• Repetitive bowling & throwing
• Sudden increase in training load
• Poor shoulder blade control
• Tight chest or weak rotator cuff

✅ Good news
Shoulder pain doesn’t always mean damage — it often means the shoulder isn’t coping with load.

🔑 Fix it properly
✔ Improve shoulder movement
✔ Strengthen rotator cuff & shoulder blade muscles
✔ Build bowling loads gradually

📩 Want to bowl, throw & field without pain? The right physio plan can make all the difference.

Call us today and book with one of our Physios to get a personalised treatment plan for your shoulder.
