Ultimate
Spinal
Health
A cutting edge, hands on , systematic approach to achieving your optimum physical capability. A high tech assessment and evidence based, progressive neuromuscular retraining and individualised muscle strengthening program. P.U.S.H. has an educative approach putting the power in the hands of the patient.
PUSH PATHWAY
- Assessment and Diagnosis
- Education and treatment pathway identified
- Further technological assessment and motor retraining ( RTUS and EMG biofeedback)
- Corrective manual therapy
- 3 phase exercise prescription
- Phase 1: reactivating and reprogramming the motor cortex and retraining muscle firing sequence
- Phase 2: functional muscular retraining and dynamic postural retraining, building strength and endurance
- Phase 3: advanced strength and conditioning
Three phase exercise programme leaves no rehabilitation holes
Designed by Julie Faulks one of Australia’s top spinal experts, the PUSH programme individually focuses on each muscle group in a systematic method utilising evidence based research and the latest exercise programmes. The PUSH programme incorporates Australian Olympic Physiotherapist Trish Wisbey-Roth’s BOUNCE Back programme, Pilates and gym based exercise prescription. The final outcome base is to break the recurrent pain cycle and establish dynamic postural patterns. There are 3 levels within the overall programme which cater for all levels of spinal stability. The key progressions are; reactivation of inhibited muscle patterns and reprogramming of the motor cortex, incorporating that retraining into functional patterns where optimal muscle firing sequencing is obtained.
