Considering Knee Replacement??



 EVERY PT's DREAM😁


Sometimes it can't be avoided, but how fulfilling is it to help someone avoid surgery?

Even Double Knee Replacements! Age, severity and activity level are often main decision-making factors when it comes to deciding on total replacement surgeries.

If you are older, you are less like to heal on your own...they say

If you're damage is too severe, you are unlikely to heal ... they say

If you want to remain active, you have no choice... they say

Well, I say times are changing. Technology is changing. And mindset is changing.

The day my client, who was on the verge of getting DOUBLE Knee replacements, came home from visiting her native country to report she was able to walk freely & enjoy her trip... I couldn't hide my smile. 😁

When her son told me they are no longer considering surgery because her results were so good ... I nearly jumped for joy. Victory!!

Don't let age, severity, or desire to remain highly active entice you to surgery before trying all there is! My Stem Cell Activation Program has saved this lovely, active grandma from going under the knife. And it could possibly do the same for you!

Those "Tricky" Hamstrings - Part 2

THE ROLE OF THE NERVOUS SYSTEM This "epidemic" of recurring hamstring injuries is, in part, due to the under-valued role of the nervous system.  There is often too much focus on the structural "damage" and isolated limitations vs the overall dysfunction. I'm not saying that treating the damaged tissue is not important. But, in order to minimize recurrence, we must look beyond the isolated injury and seek to understand the integrated, "big picture" of the problem. IS IT ACTUAL DAMAGE OR SOMETHING ELSE? One interesting concept to understand is that the tension of our muscles are completely under the control of our nervous system.  Your brain is in constant awareness of the tension of all your muscles.  Unless you change your nervous system, you will continue to sense tightness.  As mentioned in Part 1, stretching isn't necessarily the answer to resolving tension. The relief felt by isolated muscle stretching only lasts for about 20 minutes.   ...

Those "Tricky" Hamstrings (Part 3)

So far, we have discussed the consequences of OVER STRETCHING and the role of the NERVOUS SYSTEM in treating and preventing hamstring injuries.  Now it's time to dive in to the ROTATIONAL component of our hamstrings.   We cannot treat the hamstring group in just one plane of motion.  Look at the diagram and notice that there are some hamstring muscles that attach to the inside (medial) side of the knee, and others that attach to the outside (lateral) side of the knee. When working together, the medial and lateral hamstrings will act in a coordinated manner to bend the knee and extend the hip.   Individually, the medial hamstrings turn the thigh inward (Internal Rotation or IR) and the lateral hamstrings turn the thigh outward (External Rotation or ER).  This means that the hamstrings are also a crucial player in side-to-side and rotational movements.  On the same lines, the hamstrings will act at the upper attachment at the pelvis.  The med...

Understanding the Pelvic Floor - GAMECHANGER!

WHY ARE YOU CARRYING THAT EVERYWHERE, MOM?  If you've bumped into me lately, you've likely seen this new "friend" poking out of my bag or sitting on my desk. I've had a "bones only" pelvis for a while now, but this one is a new addition. I've been under the wing of the great @hayleykavapt this month tackling a deeper understanding of the pelvic floor. I've understood how to INFLUENCE those deep muscles via the bony positioning and activation of the larger muscles surrounding the pelvis, but I didn't fully understand how to ACTIVATE and RELAX those muscles and when. I was pretty intimidated by those deep pelvis muscles, to be honest. I can say that adding this awareness and cueing to the exercises I've been giving out for years has made a huge difference in myself... and I'm excited to share this new appreciation with you! After just a few times practicing, my feet felt much more grounded when running today! Better hamstring and glute ...
