For our last blog post of the year, it has become a tradition to do a roundup of the year’s hottest topics and most viewed articles. As 2023 unfolded, we almost doubled our global readership and brought insightful articles and updates to thousands of new and returning readers to our site each month.

From massage therapy to neurological injuries, wheelchair techniques to lower limb injuries, sports and activity to pelvic health, and a glimpse into innovative products, our staff writers shared their expertise and experiences in an effort to help people better understand the causes, symptoms and treatment options available to them.

Here is a roundup of the major themes we had to talk about in 2022:

Massage Therapy: Unlocking the Power of Touch

This year, we delved into various massage therapy topics, unveiling their benefits and applications. Articles such as Lymphatic Drainage Massage Benefits and Myofascial Release Massage explored how these techniques contribute to overall well-being.

“What Is Deep Tissue Massage?” provided clarity on a popular method, while Myofascial Trigger Points and Back Pain delved into the intricate connection between muscular knots and discomfort. Additionally, the Benefits of Swedish Massage Therapy showcased the time-tested advantages of this classic approach.

Navigating Neurological Challenges: Bridging Hope and Rehabilitation

The neurological injury blogs showcased innovative and evidence-based techniques we use at Propel to address our clients’ needs and goals. Pons Therapy for Stroke shed light on the latest studies around improving walkability in this population, while Multiple Sclerosis Symptoms Management advocated for an integrated healthcare strategy.

Movement-Based Therapies and Exercises for Parkinson’s Disease provided insights into managing this condition, and Functional Neurological Disorder Treatment addressed a nuanced aspect of neurological care.

Empowering Mobility: Wheelchair Techniques and Accessories

For those with mobility challenges, we offered guidance on Wheelchair Accessories and Devices for Winter Weather. Additionally, Wheelchair Propulsion Techniques to Prevent Shoulder Injuries provided practical tips for maintaining shoulder health, essential for wheelchair users.

Rehabilitation Lower Limb Injuries: Strides Toward Recovery

Lower limb injuries were addressed with precision, covering topics like Knee Dislocation Treatment, Ankle Sprain Physiotherapy, High Ankle Sprain Rehab, and Leg Amputation Rehabilitation. Each article offered tailored insights into rehabilitation, empowering individuals on their journey to recovery.

Thriving in Sports and Activities

Whether providing tips on Reducing the Risk of Concussions in Cycling or offering Physiotherapy for Runners, Propel had you covered from race day preparation to injury prevention. Racquet Sport Injuries Treatment and Common Baseball Injuries also provided valuable information for sports enthusiasts, while Nordic Pole Walking for Seniors explored a popular activity promoting healthy aging.

Pelvic Health Solutions

In the realm of pelvic health, our therapists delved into topics such as Diastasis Recti Physiotherapy, Endometriosis Treatment, and Vulvodynia Causes and Treatment. These articles aimed to destigmatize and educate, empowering individuals to seek the care they deserve.

Innovative Products for Personalized Comfort

We showcased our commitment to holistic well-being with the introduction of Pillowise Personalized Orthopedic Pillows in all of our clinic locations. We also previewed the new XTERN Turbomed AFO in a blog on Foot Drop Causes and Treatment.

Propel Physiotherapy Growth

This year was an exciting one for our organization. We expanded our team to more than 40, as well as our footprint in Ontario with the opening of the New Propel Physiotherapy Peterborough Clinic and the relocation of our Pickering Clinic to a bigger, brighter space.

Looking Ahead to 2024

As we look ahead to 2024, our commitment to comprehensive healthcare, personalized solutions, and community impact is stronger than ever. We look forward to bringing you a diverse range of topics that can help educate you and underscore our organization’s dedication to empowering individuals on their path to wellness.
