Happy Movement Monday! This week lets look at shoulder mobility! Shoulder mobility and thoracic spine mobility work off each other meaning if one is reduced the other is also likely affected as well. This super simple movement can be used to increase mobility within the shoulders.

Happy Movement Monday! This week we are going to look at two different ways to stretch the Hamstring muscle (in the back of your thigh). This muscle is frequently tight and effected when we have to sit for long periods of time or do large amounts of activity. The first way to do this is laying on your back doing what Dr. Z calls the Hamstring Floss or a Sciatic Floss. With this one once you straighten your leg, to increase the stretch you can point your toes to your nose! The second way to do this is a half kneeling hamstring stretch. Which is your favorite? Dr. Z loves the supine hamstring floss!

Happy Movement Monday! This Monday we are doing the standing lateral flexions! These are really great to help increase lateral flexion but also work those obliques and core! This can be done in many different directions, but most important can be translated to picking up a bag, suitcase etc with one side. Give these a try at home and let us know your thoughts!

Happy Movement Monday!! Today we are going to do the piriformis stretch in 4 different ways so that you can find the way that works the best for you. Your piriformis is a muscle underneath your gluteal muscles that often is irritated with low back, hip and sciatic type pain. We are able to stretch and strength this muscle to help eliminate any discomfort. Which figure four stretch works best for you? Dr. Z's personal favorite is the standing figure four!

Movement Monday! 💪 Hip Hinge / Deadlift This movement is so important for literally all aspects of your lift because it creates stability in your low back but also good habits moving forward. This will help reduce the risk of reinjury as well as help you while you are lifting things such as bags of clothing, leaves and mulch or even with everyday activities like lifting and carrying groceries. Ask us for help teaching this and give it a try and let us know what you think!

Movement Monday 💪 Today we are focusing on hip mobility as it is super important when being active in all aspects of your life. Having good hip mobility is great increase stability within the low back but also the knees so that you can continue to be active and do what you love long term. There are two different movements we are working on this week, shin box and 90/90 hip rotations. For shin box you are rotating your legs in the shape of a box to establish movement within multiple different hip motions including internal and external rotation. The same movements are applied to the 90/90 hip rotations as well. Give these a try and let us know what you think!!!

Movement Monday! 💪 Today we are going to focus on the standing doorway stretch! This movement is super great for stretching the pectoral muscles as well as opening up the chest. With spring cleaning, yard work becoming more prevalent as the weather warms it is really important to make sure our chest is opened up so that we can continue to move through out movements and tasks without significant discomfort. We ask that you do this twice - once with your elbow at shoulder height and once with your elbow above your shoulder. All you do is put your arm and elbow on the wall (as seen in the video) and either step forward or lean forward into the stretch. Give this a try and let us know what you think! 😊

Movement Monday! 💪 Today we are focusing on mid back mobility, specifically working on quadruped rotations. This movement is super important when doing spring cleaning and yardwork because we often find ourselves rotating to move things, vacuum, and raking. For this movement you will start on all fours and then thread the arm through your body and up towards the ceiling following your hand with your eyes. We recommend doing this 10 times on each side.

Movement Monday! As we jump into April we are focusing our movements to help you get through your spring cleaning, spring yardwork and all your favorite outdoor activities. Today we are going to focus on foam rolling the mid to upper back, as was as the lats and serratus (the muscles on the sides of the back and sides). This will help with general movement and mobility.

Glute Bridge Progression 2 - incorporating lats! Incorporating your LATS is so beneficial to the glute bridge as it increases intraabdominal pressure and core stability to further support the low back, core and hips.

This week is the next progression of the GLUTE BRIDGE! using a band. This provides extra resistance for the glutes to continue supporting the low back, hips and core! Give it a try and let us know what you think!

In March we are going to do a progression on glute bridges! Glute bridges are great for strengthening weak glutes and core to support the core, low back and hips. This is the first of the progression where we focus on the starting with the pelvic tilt and using the mind body connection to contract the glutes to lift the hips into a straight line.

Happy Movement Monday! Today we are going to talk about Pelvic Tilts! Pelvic Tilts are a great starting point for everyone as it helps create stability within the core and the pelvis. Give this a try and let us know what you think! 🔽

Happy Movement Monday!!! After a week of celebrating love lets ease into this week with one of Dr. Z's favorite stretches - CHILD'S POSE! Do you feel tight or stiff after sitting at work or over the weekend? This would be an amazing stretch for you. Give it a try and let us know what you think 🔽

HAPPY MOVEMENT MONDAY! Today we are going to talk about the DEADBUG!!!! The dead bug is super important because it focuses on coordination and core. Working these muscles are helpful for those with low back and sacroiliac pain and discomfort. Because the dead bug is intense and difficult, we often break it down into a progression over time. This is our initial portion of the protocol, where we focus on finding a neutral pelvis through doing pelvic tilts. Then we lift the legs to 90/90 and slowly tap the heels to the table. We want to maintain the neutral pelvis throughout this entire movement, and you should feel it in your core. Give these a try and let us know what you think!!! Have low back pain, sacroiliac pain, do dead bugs and want to know if they're being done in an effective way? Give us a call at 704.788.1895 to get on the schedule and start feeling better this week!

‼️ Happy Movement Monday ‼️ Today we are talking about the movement ➡️ CAT 🐱 COW 🐮 This is one my commonly prescribed movements because it not only works the muscles of the middle and low back it helps provide movement and improve mobility in both regions. For this movement you will: 1️⃣ kneel on all fours 2️⃣ push up through your shoulders and mid back to round the spine, I like to focus on pushing segment by segment 3️⃣ release and lower segment by segment until you feel like your low back is sagging (still going segment by segment) Give this a try at home and let me know what you think ⬇️ Hope you have the best Monday you can! 😊😊
