💡 Exercise doesn’t reduce pain because the body gets stronger – it works through other, deeper mechanisms

For a long time, physiotherapy has been guided by a simple logic:

👉 pain occurs because a structure is weak
👉 therefore it must be strengthened
👉 then the pain will decrease

However, a new editorial in the British Journal of Sports Medicine –
“It is not all about strength: rethinking mechanistic assumptions in exercise-based rehabilitation for musculoskeletal pain relief” – challenges this idea in a meaningful way.

The authors analysed research on:

✔ shoulder pain
✔ Achilles and patellar tendinopathy
✔ anterior knee pain (patellofemoral pain)
✔ knee osteoarthritis

And the findings were surprising:

🔹 patients often improve even when strength increases only minimally
🔹 sometimes strength improves, but pain remains almost unchanged
🔹 changes in strength explain only a very small part of the overall improvement

In other words –

👉 exercise DOES work
👉 but its effect is not only (and not necessarily) due to increased strength

🧠 So what actually helps?

The article highlights several other important mechanisms:

✨ increased self-efficacy
(“I can move and manage my pain”)
✨ reduced fear of movement
(we stop over-protecting the body)
✨ a healthier relationship with movement and load
✨ a clearer understanding of the problem
(without the narrative of a “weak, worn-out, fragile body”)
✨ improved mood, energy, sleep, and endurance

This is referred to as a multifactorial effect.

Exercise works not only through a “mechanical” principle –
it changes behaviour, beliefs, and confidence in movement 💪

⚠️ An important note

The article does NOT claim that strength is unimportant.

Strength training is highly beneficial for:

✔ function
✔ fall prevention
✔ health
✔ wellbeing

However:

❌ pain does not necessarily decrease simply because “we became stronger”

The greatest harm occurs when patients are told:

❗ “your knee / shoulder is weak”
❗ “your body is fragile”
❗ “you won’t recover until you strengthen it”

Such messages promote:

🚫 fear
🚫 avoidance of movement
🚫 dependence on therapy

And this can increase the experience of pain.

🔄 How can we change our communication?

Instead of:

“we are strengthening the weak area”

We can say:

👉 “we are helping your body and nervous system safely tolerate movement again”
👉 “movement helps restore confidence in your body”
👉 “strengthening is beneficial – but it is only one part of what helps you”

This:

✅ reduces fear
✅ increases the sense of control
✅ improves long-term outcomes

🧩 The key takeaway

Exercise is one of the most effective interventions for musculoskeletal pain.

However:

💬 it is not only about “strengthening”
💬 nor simply about “fixing weak structures”

What matters most is –

✔ how a person moves
✔ what they believe about their pain
✔ how much they trust their body
✔ how they gradually return to activity

And this is where the true impact of rehabilitation lies.

🧠🌙 THE GUT–SLEEP AXIS: WHAT DOES SCIENCE SAY ABOUT IT?

Did you know that your sleep quality may depend on what’s happening in your gut – and vice versa? In recent years, scientists have been paying increasing attention to the so-called Gut–Sleep Axis – the bidirectional connection between the gut microbiota and sleep.

🔬 What is it?

The Gut–Sleep Axis is a complex communication system between:

• 🦠 the gut microbiota
• 🧠 the brain and nervous system
• 🛡️ the immune system
• ⏰ circadian (day–night) rhythms

This system helps explain why poor sleep often goes hand in hand with digestive problems, anxiety, fatigue, or inflammation.

🧬 HOW DOES THE GUT AFFECT SLEEP?

🟢 Neurotransmitters and hormones

• Around 90% of serotonin is produced in the gut
• Serotonin → converts into melatonin (the sleep hormone)
• When the microbiota is disrupted, the balance of these substances may also become disturbed

🟢 Microbiota metabolites

• Gut bacteria produce short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs)
• They reduce inflammation and are associated with deeper, higher-quality sleep

🟢 Immune system

• Dysbiosis (microbiota imbalance) increases inflammatory cytokines
• Inflammation is linked to more frequent night awakenings and insomnia

🟢 The vagus nerve

• It is the “highway” between the gut and the brain
• Through it, the gut can send signals that directly influence sleep architecture

😴 HOW DOES SLEEP AFFECT THE GUT?

Scientific studies show that even 1–2 nights of poor sleep can:

• reduce microbiota diversity
• increase the proportion of “harmful” bacteria
• weaken the gut barrier (“leaky gut”)
• promote inflammation and hormonal imbalance

This means insomnia can be not only a consequence – but also a cause – of gut problems.

📊 WHAT DO STUDIES SHOW?

✔️ Greater microbiota diversity is associated with better sleep quality
✔️ Certain beneficial gut bacteria, such as Faecalibacterium prausnitzii, are linked to better gut health and anti-inflammatory status, which may support higher-quality sleep (the relationship is still mostly correlational)
✔️ Genetic studies indicate a bidirectional link: microbiota ↔ insomnia
✔️ Some clinical trials suggest that probiotics and prebiotics may improve sleep metrics (although more large-scale studies are needed)

🌿 WHAT CAN WE DO IN PRACTICE?

💚 Nutrition

• High-fiber foods (vegetables, legumes, whole grains)
• Fermented foods (kefir, yogurt, fermented vegetables)
• Adequate tryptophan intake (oats, eggs, bananas)

💚 Sleep hygiene

• Regular sleep schedule
• Less screen time in the evening
• Avoid overeating before bedtime

💚 Stress management

• Breathing exercises
• Light movement
• A calmer nervous system = better sleep = a healthier gut

✨ CONCLUSION

The gut and sleep are in constant communication.
If we want better sleep – we need to care for the gut.
If we want a healthier gut – we need to sleep well.

It’s not “either–or,” it’s both.

🔬 The Future of CT Diagnostics: Introducing the Ability to Perform Examinations in the STANDING POSITION

Recently, international medical technology exhibitions and the scientific community have been placing increasing focus on an important innovation – performing computed tomography (CT) examinations in standing or seated positions.

It is important to emphasize: 👉 this is not yet part of routine clinical practice and is not widely available to patients. It is an innovation that is currently being presented, evaluated, and will be gradually implemented in clinical settings.

One of the most prominent examples of this approach is Canon Aquilion RISE.

🆕 What’s new?
Until now, CT examinations have almost always been performed in the supine position, even though many symptoms (particularly those involving the spine and joints) manifest under weight-bearing conditions – while standing or sitting.

Aquilion RISE enables examinations to be performed:

• standing,
• seated,
• supine (in the conventional manner).

This means that anatomy can be assessed not only under “ideal” conditions, but also in real, functional situations.

🦴 How can this be useful in clinical practice?

🔹 Spine diagnostics
In the standing position, it is possible to more accurately evaluate:

• vertebral displacement,
• segmental instability,
• postural changes,
which are often not visible on CT or MRI scans performed in the supine position.

🔹 Joints and biomechanics
The knee, hip, ankle, and foot joints change their position under load. Weight-bearing CT can:

• reveal changes in joint space,
• help better understand the cause of pain,
• be useful both preoperatively and postoperatively.

🔹 More precise treatment planning
Physicians obtain images that more closely reflect the patient’s everyday functional condition, which may lead to more accurate clinical decision-making.

⚠️ What is important to understand?

✔️ This is not a replacement for conventional CT, but an additional diagnostic option
✔️ Standing examinations are not necessary for every patient or every indication
✔️ The technology is still accumulating clinical evidence, with indications and protocols being defined
✔️ Implementation will occur gradually, depending on clinical sites, specialists, and clinical need

📌 Canon Aquilion RISE exemplifies how imaging diagnostics are moving toward functional, real-world assessment rather than purely static imaging.

🌿 Curcumin – one of the most evidence-based natural molecules: what makes it valuable for health?

Did you know that curcumin – the main active compound of turmeric – is one of the most thoroughly researched natural molecules in the world?

Thousands of scientific publications, clinical trials in humans, and especially in the last decade – growing attention to its effects on chronic diseases, aging, inflammatory processes and even brain health.

Today, I’m sharing an overview based on clinical data rather than opinions.

If you care about your health, this information may be truly valuable.

💡 What makes curcumin unique?

Curcumin has a wide range of clinically relevant effects:

✔ strong anti-inflammatory action
✔ activation of autophagy (cell “self-cleansing”)
✔ antioxidant activity
✔ immunomodulation
✔ neuroprotective properties (protection against neurodegeneration)
✔ reduction of amyloid accumulation
✔ cardiovascular protection
✔ support for liver, kidney and joint function
✔ metabolic regulation
✔ improved insulin sensitivity

These properties are especially relevant today, when many people face chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, memory impairment, joint pain, metabolic disorders, skin problems and autoimmune processes.

🔬 Why is curcumin so interesting to science?

👉 because it acts on several biochemical pathways related to aging, degeneration and inflammation at the same time.

• inhibits NF-κB (the main “switch” of inflammation)
• activates Nrf2 (cell defense and detoxification pathway)
• balances immune responses
• reduces mitochondrial oxidative damage
• activates sirtuins and AMPK (adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase), i.e., longevity pathways

This is an epigenetic effect: a molecule that directly interacts with cellular aging mechanisms.

🧠 Brain function and mood

Many clinical studies indicate that curcumin may be helpful for:

🟣 supporting working memory
🟣 reducing mental fatigue
🟣 improving overall cognitive performance
🟣 reducing neuroinflammation
🟣 decreasing beta-amyloid accumulation
🟣 protecting the blood–brain barrier

Research has been conducted both in healthy older adults and in people with metabolic disorders, cognitive impairment, and even after chemotherapy.

🦴 Joint health and inflammation

Meta-analyses show that curcumin:

✨ reduces pain
✨ improves joint mobility
✨ decreases morning stiffness
✨ improves quality of life

Most interestingly, in some studies it was comparable in effectiveness to ibuprofen, but with a much more favorable safety profile.

This may be particularly relevant in osteoarthritis or chronic joint inflammation.

🦠 Autoimmune and allergic conditions

Curcumin may help regulate hyperactive immune responses.

Studies have shown benefits in:

• rheumatoid arthritis
• systemic autoimmune diseases
• allergic rhinitis
• psoriasis
• inflammatory bowel conditions

Mechanisms include:

• reducing mast cell activity
• regulating the Th1/Th2 balance
• suppressing cytokine storms

It is not a “quick-acting” molecule, but it may play a meaningful role in long-term management of inflammatory and autoimmune processes.

Cardiovascular function

Research indicates that curcumin may:

✔ improve endothelial function
✔ increase nitric oxide production
✔ reduce oxidative damage to blood vessel walls
✔ slow the progression of atherosclerosis

This is important for both maintenance of cardiovascular health and prevention during aging.

🧬 Skin health

Due to its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and tissue-regenerative effects, curcumin is studied in:

• acne
• dermatitis
• wound healing
• psoriasis
• photoaging (skin aging caused by UV exposure)
• radiodermatitis (skin damage caused by radiation therapy)

Both topical and systemic effects are supported in the literature.

🚧 But there is one challenge – the bioavailability of conventional curcumin is very low

✔ poor solubility
✔ limited intestinal absorption
✔ rapid hepatic metabolism and elimination

Therefore, dietary turmeric, although healthy, cannot provide clinical effects comparable to research-grade curcumin formulations.

This is why scientific literature increasingly focuses on advanced curcumin formulations that deliver the active molecule into tissues — especially where it is needed (e.g., joints or the brain).

🔎 When can curcumin be practically useful?

✔ chronic inflammation
• joints, skin, autoimmune activity, gut
✔ joint pain and osteoarthritis
• an alternative or adjunct to NSAIDs
✔ cognitive function and memory
• especially in older adults or those with MCI
✔ reducing amyloid proteins
• one of the most promising areas in neurodegeneration
✔ mood balance and mental fatigue
✔ allergies and mast cell overactivity
✔ metabolic and cardiovascular health
• lipids, endothelial function, oxidative stress
✔ skin conditions
• from acne to psoriasis and wound healing
✔ sports performance
• recovery after exercise without suppressing training adaptations

⚠️ When should curcumin be avoided?

Always evaluate individually.
Not recommended:

🚫 pregnancy and breastfeeding
🚫 with blood-thinning medications
🚫 with immunosuppressants
🚫 with gallstones
🚫 when taking tamoxifen (selective estrogen receptor modulator)

Consultation with a healthcare professional is advised.

📌 In conclusion

Curcumin is not a “magic cure”.
However, it is unequivocally one of the best-studied natural molecules in the context of chronic disease, inflammation, and healthy aging.

When properly absorbed and correctly chosen for a clinical situation, studies show truly impressive results:

• reduced joint pain
• improved cognitive function
• decreased inflammation
• better skin condition
• improved vascular function
• enhanced overall well-being

If you are interested in holistic health, prevention, and long-term management of inflammatory processes — curcumin is certainly worth your attention.

🦵⚡ Nocturnal Leg Cramps – a Multifactorial and Not Fully Understood Phenomenon That Is Gaining Increasing Scientific Attention Due to Its Significant Impact on Sleep and Quality of Life

If you’ve ever been woken up at night by a sudden cramp, you know it’s not just a “minor inconvenience.”
A sharp, penetrating contraction in the calf or foot can jolt you out of sleep – and leave you anxious it will happen again.

Studies show that a large proportion of middle-aged and older adults regularly experience nocturnal leg cramps.
For part of them, this happens several times per week, disrupting sleep, energy, and mood.

The good news? We now have clear, evidence-based recommendations on what truly helps reduce nocturnal leg cramps – and where it’s not worth expecting miracle solutions.

🔍 Why do leg cramps occur?

In short: cramps rarely stem from “one missing pill.”
They most often result from a combination of factors:

• tight and shortened calf muscles (especially the gastrocnemius),
• imbalance with the anterior tibial muscle (tibialis anterior),
• increased nerve excitability (especially with age),
• fluid and electrolyte fluctuations,
• occasionally medications, vascular disorders, or nerve pathology.

That’s why treatment is most often multifactorial, not “one tablet in the evening.”

✅ 1. The foundational strategy everyone should try first: targeted stretching + movement

Dedicating 5-10 minutes before sleep to stretching the gastrocnemius and tibialis anterior muscles is one of the most effective, safest, and best-studied methods.

📌 Clinical trials in older adults showed that this type of nightly stretching significantly reduced the frequency and intensity of nocturnal leg cramps over a 6-week period.

Add to that:

• light daily activity (walking, basic exercises),
• short movement breaks if you sit or stand a lot,
• adequate – but not excessive – fluid intake.
These are the foundations on which to build everything else.

💊 2. Supplements: not all are equal

🔹 Magnesium

Magnesium is often treated as a magic solution – but most studies show that classical forms of magnesium have little to no meaningful effect on idiopathic nocturnal leg cramps.

• Some newer, better-absorbed forms (e.g., magnesium oxide monohydrate) show promising results, but they are not the new “gold standard.”

➡ Magnesium may be reasonable if there is deficiency or specific clinical indication – but taking it “just because” and expecting miracles is unrealistic.

🔹 B-group vitamins (B1, B6, B12, etc.)

One small but frequently cited randomized controlled trial in older adults found that a B-complex significantly reduced the frequency, duration, and intensity of nocturnal leg cramps compared with placebo.
However, larger confirmatory trials are still lacking.

• Evidence is limited, but:
- if there is neuropathy, B12 deficiency, or nerve damage – B-vitamins can be a logical choice,
- for idiopathic nocturnal leg cramps – they can be tried, with the understanding that this is one possible option, not a guaranteed cure.

🔹 Vitamin K2 – one of the most interesting new findings

Here, the science is genuinely encouraging:

• A multicenter randomized controlled trial published in 2024 showed that vitamin K2 (menaquinone-7, 180 µg in the evening for 2 months) significantly reduced cramp frequency, duration, and intensity in older adults, without serious adverse effects.

This does not mean everyone should rush to take it – but:

• K2 is currently one of the most evidence-backed supplements for idiopathic nocturnal leg cramps,
• especially relevant for older adults,
• but should be discussed with a physician, especially if anticoagulants are used.

💉 3. Medications and innovative options – when the problem is at a higher level

When stretching, movement, and safe supplements are not enough – especially if cramps are severe or linked to spinal, vascular, or nerve issues – a more advanced toolbox comes into play:

• When simple measures fail, diltiazem is sometimes considered – it may provide short-term relief for some patients, but evidence is limited and decisions should be made individually with a physician.

• Gabapentin, baclofen, and other medications – particularly when cramps are related to lumbar stenosis or neuropathy.

• Nerve blocks (for example, deep peroneal nerve block) have shown long-lasting benefits in some studies for post-spinal surgery patients experiencing nocturnal cramps.

• Botulinum toxin injections into the gastrocnemius in patients with lumbar stenosis–related nighttime calf cramps reduced pain and cramp frequency.

• Dry needling and “fire needle” techniques are currently being investigated as new physiotherapeutic and Traditional Chinese Medicine approaches – early studies are promising, but this remains experimental.

🚫 4. What is no longer considered a first-line choice?
• Quinine – Yes, it is effective.

But due to serious, sometimes life-threatening adverse effects, modern guidelines no longer recommend it as a routine therapy.

🍟 A short note on evening meals

Foods heavily fried in oil (especially pan-fried with a generous amount of oil) in the evening may indirectly contribute to nocturnal cramps by burdening digestion, disturbing sleep, and promoting fluid and electrolyte imbalance.

🩺 When should you definitely see a doctor?

• cramps occur several times per week or nightly,
• pain persists long after an episode,
• there is swelling, redness, warmth in the leg,
• you have heart, kidney, liver or neurological disease, or diabetes and cramps suddenly worsened,
• you started new medication and cramps began afterwards.

A physician can:

• determine whether this is idiopathic nocturnal calf cramping or a sign of something more serious,
• check bloodwork (electrolytes, vitamins, kidney/liver function),
• assess whether supplements (Mg, B-complex, K2, etc.) make sense for your case,
• if needed – refer to neurology, vascular surgery, or a pain specialist.

🌙 In conclusion

Nocturnal leg cramps are not “insignificant” – they are painful, stressful, and sleep-disrupting episodes that millions of people have experienced.

Today we already know that:

• stretching and movement are not an “old-fashioned tip,” but an evidence-based therapy,
• magnesium and many supplements have weaker evidence than marketing led us to believe,
• B-vitamins, vitamin K2, and several other avenues open new, intriguing therapeutic possibilities,
• and in more severe cases, options range from nerve blocks to botulinum toxin and specialized physiotherapy.

The most important thing is not to downplay your pain or assume it is “just how it is.”

We now have genuinely effective ways to help.

🚨 Quadriceps Inhibition After ACL Injury: What You Need to Know 🚨

Did you know that even after successful ACL reconstruction, many athletes struggle with a hidden problem that delays recovery and raises reinjury risk? It’s called arthrogenic muscle inhibition (AMI) – and it mainly affects the quadriceps.

👉 What is AMI?
AMI is a neurological response where the body “shuts down” muscle activation after knee trauma or surgery. It’s not just about weakness — the nervous system limits how much you can voluntarily contract your quad.

👉 Why does it happen?
• Peripheral factors: joint swelling, damaged receptors in the ACL, and pain.
• Central factors: changes in brain and spinal cord control that reduce motor drive.

👉 How does it affect recovery?
• Persistent quadriceps weakness and delayed muscle activation.
• Abnormal gait mechanics and compensatory movement patterns.
• Increased risk of reinjury (including graft rupture or injury to the other knee).
• Long-term: higher chance of early knee osteoarthritis.

👉 Signs to look out for
Even months after surgery, you might notice:
• Difficulty regaining quad strength despite training.
• Limping or favoring one leg during running.
• Trouble with single-leg hops, landing, or stability exercises.

👉 What helps?
Research highlights the need for targeted rehabilitation, not just standard strength training:
• Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) and cryotherapy in early rehab.
• Eccentric training and blood flow restriction (BFR) in mid-phase recovery.
• Cognitive–motor and dual-task training later, to re-train the brain and improve movement quality.
• Advanced tools like gait analysis, EMG testing, and neurostimulation may also play a role in the future.

⚠️ Takeaway: AMI is one of the main reasons athletes struggle to get back to pre-injury performance after ACL surgery. Proper assessment and rehab targeting neuromuscular control, not just strength, are critical for a safe return to sport.

💡 If you’re rehabbing from an ACL injury, talk with your physio about AMI-specific strategies. Early detection and treatment can make all the difference!

🔍 Rethinking Musculoskeletal Pain: It’s More Than Just the Joints! 🧠💪

🚨 Musculoskeletal pain isn’t just about bones and muscles—it’s a complex interaction between the brain, immune system, hormones, and gut health! 🧠🦠💥

🔬 Key Takeaways:
✅ Pain can fluctuate due to stress, inflammation, and hormonal changes 📉📈
✅ Structural injuries ≠ the only cause of chronic pain 🚫
✅ Gut microbiome, childhood experiences, and even medications can influence how we feel 🤯
✅ A whole-person approach, considering lifestyle, diet, and mental health, is the future of musculoskeletal care 🌱✨

🔥 Your pain is not just in your body—it’s connected to your entire system! If you experience chronic or unexplained pain, it’s time to look beyond just the muscles. 💡

💬 Have you ever noticed how stress, diet, or sleep affects your pain levels?!

04/02/2025

When your ego takes a hit, it often means you are being challenged, forced to confront uncomfortable truths, or experiencing a shift in perspective. While this can be painful in the moment, it can lead to greater self-awareness, humility, and deeper learning, which ultimately benefits your soul (or your deeper sense of self).

In therapy and personal development:

Ego bruising moments (like receiving constructive criticism or realizing a mistake) can dismantle false self-perceptions and help build resilience.

Being open to negative feedback allows for true growth and self-improvement—whether as a therapist, a client, or just as a person navigating relationships.

Letting go of defensiveness fosters a stronger sense of authenticity, connection, and emotional maturity.

So, while a bad day for your ego may feel uncomfortable, it often creates space for deeper wisdom, healing, and progress.
