Doctors Selection Glucosamine 1000

Doctors Selection Glucosamine

Doctors’ Selection Glucosamine 1000 is Australia’s leading practitioner dispensed joint care product. It can reduce the pain and stop the joint damage caused by osteoarthritis.

In 2002 a group of Australian doctors began researching complementary medicines. They found that most products marketed by natural health companies lacked any scientific data that showed they actually worked. They decided to form a company to produce complementary health products that were proven by sound medical evidence to be safe and effective. That company was named Doctors’ Selection. After intensive research, the doctors discovered that a specific dose and formulation of glucosamine was the ideal treatment for mild and moderate cases of osteoarthritis. The result of their research is Doctors’ Selection Glucosamine 1000. Already, thousands of Australians have experienced its beneficial effects.

Gym Balls

Gym Balls - all sizes

The Gym ball is also known by a number of different names including Swiss ball, exercise ball, therapy ball and balance ball. Using a Gym ball as part of a fitness program can include a wide range of difficulty levels, each requiring support from the back and stomach muscles that help firm up the trunk muscles in the body. Exercise balls are commonly used as part of a physical therapy program for individuals with low back pain.

Our physios are experienced in the correct usage of the Gym ball and use it as one of the tools for rehabilitation. The Gym ball can be used to develop overall control and strength of the ocre body muscles, improve balance and stability, improving proprioception and increasing abdominal and lower back strength.

Gym balls come in several different sizes and we can advise you of the most appropriate size for your needs. We only source high quality products that use burst resistant material. We carry a small number of these in stock but can order a ball if the right size is not avaiable in the clinic.
