Single leg midfoot bridge

A simple test I often use in the clinic to look at load tolerance ability of the lower limb. ๐Ÿฆต๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ”
By squashing the floor with your mid foot (I use the cue โ€œsquash an orange under your midfootโ€) youโ€™ll engage more muscles of the lower limb to distribute the force needed to carry out the movement efficiently.โœ…

This test can give clues as to what tissues need more attention and could be contributing towards the pain, e.g an issue with hamstring load tolerance could be contributing to anterior knee pain.

Apart from being used as an assessment tool, itโ€™s an excellent exercise to implement into the first stages of a rehab programme.๐Ÿ“ˆ

There is always more to a story than what is presented infront of you โ€ฆ๐Ÿ•ต๐Ÿผ

The iceberg analogy is useful to explain to patients the possible โ€œWHYโ€ they are experiencing their pain or injury and, more importantly, it provides key information which will be used to determine the individuals rehab and treatment plan. ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿผโ€๐Ÿ’ป

The tip of the iceberg is how the person presents their symptoms e.g knee pain, shoulder pain, back pain. This is the pain that is likely to be stopping them from carrying out the day-day activities they enjoy doing. โ›น๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‹๐Ÿป๐Ÿšด๐Ÿผโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Many muscles, tissues, tendons etc are connected to that part of the body that hurts๐Ÿงฌโ€ฆ..This is where the submerged part of iceberg comes into it.

The โ€œunseenโ€ part represents the patients previous injury history, habits, beliefs, emotional stressors etc. Having a good understanding of this is crucial in order to try and learn the WHY. ๐Ÿ”
Adaptions or patterns as a result of an old injury could be contributing to the current one, e.g a muscle group might not be doing its job and causing stress on other areas.โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿฉน

An example-
A herniated disc in the lumbar spine doesnโ€™t happen overnight. It most likely has been under stress for weeks, months or even years before you bend over to tie your shoe and it herniates creating pain into the back and leg.๐Ÿ’ฅ

In the clinic, I aim to work on addressing the painful symptoms and also the potential underlying contributors so that the patient has the knowledge and tools to improve themselves and prevent the problem from reoccurring or worsening. ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿผ
