Is Lifting Technique Related to Pain and Functional Limitation? A Replicated Single-Case Design Study of Five People With Lifting-Related Chronic Low Back Pain

https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ejp.70071

Key findings:
- Changes in lifting technique were often linked to improvements in function (72%) and sometimes to pain reduction (52%).
- Most clinical improvements occurred when participants shifted from squat-like to semi-squat or stoop-like lifting, with faster and more relaxed movements.
- Greater trunk movement and speed, and less knee bending, tended to coincide with less pain and better function.

Clinical implications:
These results challenge the traditional advice that “squat lifting” is always safest for CLBP.
These results suggest that when a relationship exists - less ‘protective lifting’ is associated with less reduced pain and improved function.

Happy day of gratitude for the land on which we are blessed to live.

I refuse to say “happy Canada Day” because it’s such a strange thing to me to celebrate - the day of colonization, a day that represents the arbitrary establishment of a Nation, which already existed long before us white settlers arrived. A day for many that represents so much pain and intergenerational suffering.

So instead I wish you all an offer of gratitude for this land we get to share, this land we are so blessed to call home. Instead of dividing on this day, let us come together to honour the gift that we share in enjoying and cultivating this land, let us reflect on what it means to be good stewards of this land, and what it means to love the peace, the solitude, the resources, that this land provides us.

How blessed we are. 🙏 Many thanks to Creator for this gift, thanks to the Indigenous populations that existed gere long before us, who can teach us to how to love, steward, and live in harmony with this land, and thank you to those who defend our sovereignty as a Nation.

With love and gratitude,
Dr. B

Welcome to the team Suzanne Berry!

You may recognize Suzanne from as she’s been a wealth of knowledge and supplied amazing customer service to the clients at Kelly’s while she’s been completing her CAIN-RHNP to become part of the collective mission to reverse the epidemic of poor health and preventable diseases.

Suzanne is a WEALTH of knowledge (I literally mentioned to her in passing I’m having a hard time looking at carbohydrates without them going to my thighs and she said ‘you should really consider chromium’ and helped me understand why that might help and low and behold it’s solved the problem for me completely!) and can assist with many varying health complaints but she’s well versed in:

-Skin issues
-Digestive health issues including food allergies/sensitivities
-ATP/Mitochondrial issues such as chronic fatigue or fibromyalgia
-Perimenopause and hormone issues
-Osteoarthritis and Osteoporosis

She’s now taking clients on who want to fix specific problems or meet specific goals. Not sure what you want to tackle but know you need to start somewhere? That’s ok! Suzanne offers free consultations to help you get started.
