Are you or your young athlete ready for a tune-up? Do you feel like an immediate reset would help you enjoy the rest of your active summer? Is your young athlete gearing up for fall sports with daily workouts/practices that are leaving them sore, tired, and maybe even worried about how they are performing?

If "YES", then message me for details on how I can help give you relief using this amazing technique!!!

TISSUE HEALING

One of the most common issues I encounter when helping people recover from an injury or from surgery is of the healing times of various tissues. Everyone wants to be better now, but this isn’t realistic. Tissue healing takes time. We can’t rush it. And it’s important to understand that tissues heal at different rates depending on their physical makeup and blood supply, among other things. Additional contributing factors, such as diabetes, age, poor nutrition, inadequate rest, etc can further delay the healing process.

This chart shows the average range of healing times for various tissues in the body, including different grades of tissue injury for muscles, tendons, and ligaments. It can serve not only as a guide but also a reminder that we can’t force our bodies to heal faster than physiologically possible. What we can do is optimize the healing process by rehabbing appropriately, eating high quality food, getting adequate rest, and staying patient and positive throughout the journey.

Have back pain? Make an appointment to treat it without drugs.

Most Americans will experience back pain. The good news is that most cases of low back pain are not serious and will respond well to conservative treatments such as treatment by a physical therapist. http://bit.ly/2CmLxJr

Trying Physical Therapy First For Low Back Pain May Curb Use Of Opioids

Yep! Give PT a try!

npr.org A study of patients with low back pain finds that those who got physical therapy first needed fewer pricey scans and surgeries and had "significantly lower out-of-pocket costs" for treatment overall.

Some "food" for thought.....

We are all being lied to!

Have a "bad" MRI? No need to fret!

If you select a random amount of people that don't have any problems or complaints, almost all of them will have something abnormal on their MRI.

Wow friends! I made the cut!😁

A doctor with a bad knee runs into one-size-fits-all medicine

Proud to say that I practice without the "one-size-fits all" mentality. My program is tailor made for each patient so we don't get to this point and often my exercises are handwritten on a piece of paper because good rehab really is all in the details!
