An MRI can show us a lot — but not every finding explains your pain.
Changes such as disc degeneration, arthritis and other “wear and tear” findings become increasingly common as we get older and can also be found in people who have no pain at all.
That doesn’t mean scans aren’t useful. It means the results need to be considered alongside:
✔ where and how you hurt
✔ how your symptoms started
✔ your movement and strength
✔ your clinical assessment
Sometimes imaging is important, especially if there is pain radiating down the leg or arm that isn't going away and if surgery is being considered. Other times, a good assessment can help determine the best next step without needing a scan straight away.
It’s not just what the scan shows — it’s whether it fits your symptoms.

When performing lateral pull downs, preventing shoulder pain starts with control. Keep your chest lifted, shoulders relaxed, and initiate the movement by drawing your shoulder blades down and back before bending your elbows. Avoid shrugging. Use a comfortable range, and stop if pain changes from mild effort to sharp or pinching.

FUN FACT FRIDAY ✨ Over a lifetime, the average hair length adds up to an incredible ~725 km! 😮 Yep—an entire long “journey” for your strands… unless of course you are like our Physio Mark Nagel. His hair stopped at about 250 km but has saved him $$ on haircuts and shampoo!. 😄💙 #FunFactFriday #WestLakesPhysio

September is Chronic Pain Awareness Month 💛 At WEST LAKES PHYSIO-SPORTS & REHAB, we see how fear of “doing too much” can keep people from living, dreaming, and moving forward. But progress doesn’t have to be big to be real—small, guided steps can build confidence and capacity. 🌿✨
This month, choose “Do more” in a gentle way: a short walk, a mobility stretch, or a physio-led plan that paces activity safely. You don’t have to do it alone—let’s support you. ✅
