Neck Degenerative Disc Disease

5/21/2018

4 Comments

 
Picture
Disc degeneration is something that is commonly identified as the cause of a person’s painful symptoms. A person will start having pain in the neck and an x-ray or MRI is ordered and it is found that the person has degenerative disc disease and is told that this is why they have pain. But is this really accurate? I have spoken https://youtu.be/6LiUsWhgcxY about this in the past in regard to low back pain, but does the same apply to the neck? [...]

What Are You Missing Out On?

Let me start by saying, that the main picture attached to the top of this Blog is there only because I love the Fall colors and wish this season could last a lot longer than it does around here! It really has nothing to do with the Blog topic, unless you are not able to get out and enjoy the colors because of limiting pain or injury. [...]

Early vs. Delayed Rehab for Acute Muscle Injury

10/2/2017

0 Comments

 
Picture
Muscle injuries are common in sport and can cause a significant amount of time away from activity if not managed appropriately. Even if a person is not playing a sport, muscle strains can occur in individuals doing regular life activities (think gardening, yard work, lifting things at home) who have placed more stress through the muscles than they are able to currently handle.

Back Pain and Posture

9/6/2017

0 Comments

 
Picture
While working with patients who are experiencing low back pain, one of the most common things that I hear from them is that they are “trying to have good posture,” or are “sitting up straight,” or worse yet they “know my back hurts because I have bad posture.” All of these thoughts about posture are very common. There is a long-held belief that back pain is caused by “bad posture,” “sitting slouched,” or by bending or twisting. [...]

Low Back Imaging: How Useful Is It?

8/7/2017

1 Comment

 
Picture
I see a lot of people in my clinic who are suffering from low back pain. This is not unexpected given that low back pain is the most common of all musculoskeletal conditions that people will seek care for. In addition, from a cost perspective in the United States, low back pain ranks third in money spent to treat it, only behind the cost of treatment for Cancer and Cardiac (heart) conditions. Given that it is so common, costly, and at times debilitating, it is important that the information about the causes, treatments, and prevention are accurate and based on the the most recent research that we have about the condition.

Back Pain-Is Something Out of Place?

7/7/2017

0 Comments

 
I hear it all of the time from patients-“My back is out,” My SI is out,” “My pelvis is out of alignment,” “My L5 (or any other numbered vertebra) is out,” “My vertebra is rotated.” I don’t blame my patients for saying these things-this is what they have learned to be the cause of low back pain. Maybe it was from a friend, or they read about it online, or maybe they were told this by another health care provider. Something being “out of place” can definitely seem like a plausible reason for the pain that a person may be feeling or the difficulty that they may be experiencing while trying to move. [..]

What Does a Physical Therapist Do?

6/26/2017

6 Comments

 
When I tell people that I am a physical therapist, one of the first things they say is how they went to a therapist, or they know someone who saw a therapist, after a surgery. Yes, we do help people recover after having a surgery, but this is really a small part of the many ways that we can help people. For many therapists, myself included, the goal is to help people avoid surgery and in order to do this, we need to be an initial option for people struggling with some sort of physical problem. In this Blog, I would like to discuss some of the specific things that a quality orthopedic physical therapist can do to assist people in living the active life they want. [...]
