Exercise is the best medicine. You’re probably thinking, that can’t be right, wasn’t it an apple a day keeps the doctor away? Don’t be concerned, you can continue to gulp down the Pink Ladies as part of a healthy diet, but it is exercise that has proven to be most successful to improve general health and prevent disease over any other form of management. But what type of exercise is best?

Last weekend Joel Pocklington, a physio at Actif (the workplace health arm of Back In Motion) won the Australian pole vaulting championships for the fourth year in a row (only two male pole vaulters have had a longer streak of wins!). This win means he is automatically given a place in the Australian Commonwealth Games team and will compete later this year in Glasgow, Scotland.

Jason Smith, Back In Motion Founder and Physio was invited by Medibank to provide stretching advice for tennis players during the Australian Open Tennis Tournament.

Practice Director, Amanda ‘Mandy’ Lowe, opened the greenfield practice late October after being an employee of the Group since 2009. Working at a number of different Victorian practices, Mandy’s career path from physio to franchisee was a natural progression.
