Memes aside, a lot of what we know about stretching or flexibility training, and thereafter mobility training has changed over the years. So it’s no wonder that no one feels like they know what they’re doing. Here are the not-so-ancient tips translated to English:

1. Get flexibility first, mobility second.
2. Stretches build up flexibility, hold stretches for 2 mins.
3. stretches need to be completed daily to work. Consistency matters most

Problems with squats? Maybe you feel it excessively in the back, hips or shoulders? One related issue is limited ankle mobility. When restricted it can cause compensation up the kinetic chain.

Tight quads after working out?

While stretching is 👑 for increasing flexibility sometimes hands-on treatments are needed for a boost in recovery after an intense training session. At Rehab Hero we like to do this with a variety of deep tissue techniques including myofascial release, active release, and trigger point therapy.

While all members of our team apply these techniques as needed, no one does it better than our registered massage therapists.

🔥CHRONIC ROTATOR CUFF PAIN🔥

Are you dealing with on and off rotator cuff pain for months and months? Do you find that rest makes it feel better but every time you exercise with intensity that it flares up again? Keep reading ⬇️

While rest is an effective strategy to reduce symptoms it often isn’t enough to get back to regular activity levels. This is because rest coincides with deconditioning of the affected structures, potentially delaying true recovery. Instead, at Rehab Hero we like to “sneak” in rehab movements into regular exercises to minimize time commitment and optimize target specific structures like the rotator cuff.

For example, we see many strength athletes that deal with shoulder pain during PUSH movements like the incline bench press. While we want to deload this exercise, we also want to modify it to challenge the rotator cuff, namely through banded resistance. Swipe left to see a few examples!

WRIST PAIN & PUSH-UPS

Do you get wrist impingement on the back of your wrist while doing pushups? One of the best strategies to work around it is to use push up grips or dumbbells as handles instead to put the wrist into neutral to take away the pain. BUT this is only a bandaid approach, you haven’t really fixed the problem!

While it is still generally recommended to modify movements to become pain free while training, we also like to work on building things back up as well. One accessible way of doing so is to slowly reintroduce loaded wrist extension.

We do this by taking weight AWAY from the wrists by putting you on an incline. By de-loading the wrist and decreasing the wrist extension requirement we can still stimulate the wrist to withstand some resistance. The key is to find an angle that is pain free yet challenging on the wrist.

Movement will always be king 👑

…But sometimes recovery could use a boost through manual therapy.

That’s why we like to use it as a tool to help you move pain free.

Hands on treatments are used to open up ranges of motion, it’s not just about temporarily reducing pain or chasing symptoms.

Our physiotherapists, chiropractors, RMTs, and even our naturopaths understand this. That’s why no matter who you see at our clinic, you’ll get a treatment that fits your body and how you move.

Got Chronic Rotator Cuff Pain? It might be Tendinitis or Tendinopathy

Chronic pain is defined as pain lasting for more than 3 months. Usually this timeline indicates that a pathology of a tendon may be involved as the natural history (natural healing times) of mild muscle strains is less than this. So if you’re dealing with shoulder issues lasting multiple months without any improvements from rest or stretching, best to get assessed by a qualified physiotherapist / physical therapist or sports chiropractor to determine what condition you are dealing with.

In the event that you have tendinitis, often a mixture of symptom relief exercises and tendon strengthening exercises are required to promote positive adaptation and healing. As such, resistance is required! Swipe left for a few sample exercises.

To pick the appropriate resistance level we generally like to aim for a 6/10 intensity. Some discomfort may be experienced and we generally like to aim for less than 2/10 pain when doing these movements.

BURSITIS HIP PAIN

The Greater Trochanteric Bursa is a sac of fluid found at the outer side of your hip. It functions to reduce friction between the tendons of your hip muscles and the Greater Trochanter a bony protuberance found on your lateral femur. When inflamed, pain can ensue as the tendons of your hip rub against the bursa. Pain is typically felt with movement, but can also flare up during the evening or night when the body’s natural inflammatory cycle is at it’s peak.

Early care programs are usually composed of stretches that target the glutes, and hip range of motion exercises. However exercises will need to be progressed to “stretch-strengthen” exercises to re-introduce loaded movements. Swipe left to see a few examples. Here we have chiropractor Dr. Frank () showing us some of these movements.

PES ANSERINE KNEE PAIN

The Pes Anserine is a collection of 3 tendons found at the front of your inner knee. It is composed of the semitendinosus tendon (a hamstring muscle), gracilis tendon (an inner thigh muscle), and sartorious (a hip flexor muscle) tendons. When overloaded, tendinopathy can ensue, leading to pain located along the inner knee. Following suite of classic tendinopathy symptoms, pain is often felt after exercise, in the morning, or day after physical activity.

Since all three of these muscles cross the medial knee, progressive exercises should aim to train movements of the inner thigh. Swipe left to see a few exercise examples

Got elbow pain? If it’s tennis elbow check this out!

Tennis elbow is a condition also known as lateral epicondylitis and it is a repetitive stress injury that affects the common wrist extensors. Typically this injury occurs in racquet sports like tennis or badminton due to the eccentric load that these muscles have to absorb during a back hand stroke. Even though this condition is called tennis players, it can occur in weightlifters as well.

In addition to getting this group of muscles treated by a Physio/chiro, progressive strengthening will be needed. The goal is to reintroduce loads back into the wrist extensors and to get them to positively adapt to graded movements. Here we have Rehab Hero chiropractor .emilykawaguchi doing just that!

🚨SHOULDER IMPINGEMENT🚨

Is recovering from shoulder impingement taking longer than expected despite doing all of the “right” rotator cuff exercises or scapular protraction drills? Time to look at your thoracic spine.

When it comes to being able to raise your arm overhead one of the things that the thoracic spine has to do is extend. As the foundation for which your scapula sits on, the ability to extend the thoracic spine assists being able to raise your arm overhead from a global movement standpoint.

So here are 3 thoracic spine extension PROGRESSIONS starting from creating flexibility to developing mobility to finally establishing strength.
