Somebody needs a good massage!!! LOW BACK PAIN. L

Somebody needs a good massage!!!
LOW BACK PAIN. Let’s face it, we’re all going to have it at one point in our lives. It’s inevitable!!

#lowbackpain starts off with:

✅ Back muscle fatigue
✅ Back muscle tension
✅ Back tiredness
✅ Leg tiredness
✅ Hips feeling tight
✅ Slow walking
✅ Sitting and bending become uncomfortable

Eventually the symptoms above will get worse and turn into #pain often described as the following:

✅ Constant back ache
✅ Can’t sit, can’t walk, can’t stand for too long
✅ Numbness and tingling in the legs
✅ Difficultly walking
✅ Sleepless nights

Don’t mess with you lower back! If you are starting to feel the first signs of back problems, it’s time to get to a health practitioner that you trust to give you proper advice on how to diagnose, manage and overcome this problem that affects 90% of the population.

Don’t see this condition too often but when you do, action must be taken 💪

What you are seeing here is a patient with shoulder shrug #weakness caused by C4 myotome weakening. C4 is a nerve root from the neck (cervical spine) that innervates muscles that perform shoulder shrugging - #uppertrapezius

How does this happen?? 🤷‍♀️
#poorposture
excessive #deskwork
#forwardheadposture
#textneck
#pinchnerve in the neck

The treatment plan and goals for this patient:
✅ Mobilize the neck
✅ Mobilize the upper back (thoracic spine)
✅ Improve postural awareness
✅ Fix #ergonomics !!
✅ Increase daily active movement
✅ Re-vamp stretching routine to prevent re-occurrences
✅ Massage therapy
✅ Athletic therapy

A strong and direct line of force and a knowledge

A strong and direct line of force and a knowledge of which direction to move the spine into are just two of the main ingredients for fixing #lowerbackpain
🧐Diagnosing pain isn’t detective work. What else is involved?

✅ A good history of the pain
✅ An end range #movement examination
✅ A repetitive #movement test
✅ Assessing baselines in different #posture and movements
✅ Confidence and perseverance 🏅

If you have #lowbackpain you need to seek help from a #healthcareworkers that know how to properly diagnose your #problem and fix it.

Shoulder pain isn’t just about shoulders. It’s about #goodposture 👌

The more straight your posture is the easier your shoulders can move over head and all around.

🏋️🏋️‍♂️Any #crossfit athletes out there??

The #crossfitcommunity is always emphasizing #upperback mobility and #properposture to make those #overheadpress and #overheadsquat easier to do and less risk of harming the #shoulders.

😊Consult with your #healthprofessional and #movementcoach ie. #physiotherapist #athletictherapist how you can start improving your posture

Life after Lumbar Fusion 🌸 Life after #lumbar

Life after Lumbar Fusion 🌸

Life after #lumbarspine #fusion must include movement. It’s no easy feat but it will make life more enjoyable! #painfree Trails walks, #painfree road trips, #painfree gardening, #painfree everything!!

😞Usually patients with lumbar fusions find themselves unable to lay comfortably on their stomachs or flat on their backs. Why? Bc they don’t have the flexibility in their spine. 🤷‍♀️

🧐 It’s often thought that once you have a #lowback fusion your spine will be ‘stuck’ at that level forever and that’s it.
Not the case! Sure it’s stiff and very immobile but with proper #physio and #functionalexercise there can be small gains in flexibility in the fusion site to help alleviate #pain #nervepain and improved #movement
