Client testimony:

“At the age of 70, with osteoporosis and SI joint arthritis, I struggled daily with pain in my left side, lower back, and neck, often relying on stretching and massages for relief. Learning to rebuild my structure functionally has been transformative. I am now more aware of my body’s alignment, able to hold my scoliotic pattern, and no longer dependent on constant massages to alleviate pain. The progress and improvements I’ve achieved in reversing my scoliosis at 70 years young have been truly remarkable.”

I’m sure most of you have heard this claims from somewhere:

“Every exercise is a functional exercise.”

I think the logic behind this claim is trying to say every movement that you will perform in life should be considered as functional.

While I’ll ask another question, is pain and injury related to this term “functional training”?

I have seen people who curl big weights and injuries their back and shoulders, that make me think is it really “functional”?

To me, functionality is adaptability, meaning your body could function efficiently in life without pain.

So when I give a exercise to my client, I’ll make should the exercise is facilitating motor pattern that enhances efficiency in moving that weight of any form rather that using a weight that have them feel the “pump” in one particular area.

It’s all about intention.

“Live intentionally, not habitually.”

高低膊……到底係咩問題？？高啲個邊有問題？定低啲個邊有問題？點解會高低？肩頸太緊？背肌太弱？

高低膊其實只係一個靜態姿勢分柝下呈現出嘅現象，佢對肩關節嘅功能並無一個直接關聯性的反映，所以並不可以單單靠觀察一個靜止狀態下的姿勢去決定患者需要什麼治療。

上圖的患者稱自己高低膊由細到大都有，成日都聽人講係高啲個邊有問題，話係呢肩頸肌肉太緊，但硬係拉極都拉唔鬆，但到開始右邊膊頭有痛，先發現原來兩邊都有問題，但唔同問題。

第一次見經過一啲簡單既手治治療同針對性既復健訓練後，第二次覆診已經將高低膊既姿勢改善左好多了，左邊肩頸既繃緊感都少左好多，而右邊肩膊都無痛了。

Levator Scapulae Pain Syndrome (肩胛提肌綜合症)

肩胛提肌綜合症是泛指指肩胛骨上內側至頸背側的疼痛徵狀。

肩胛提肌由頸椎第一至第四節(C1–C4)延伸至肩胛骨內側上方位置，主要負責協調頸部和肩部運動。

而造成這個痛症的成因可由頸椎功能障礙，肩部生物力學改變，壓力引致的呼吸功能失當等等。

很多受這個問題困擾的病患，經常尋求各種方法去方鬆肩脥提肌繃緊引致的不適，但其實要有效地根治這個問題，除了要排除鄰近相關的關節病變(e.g. 頸椎/胸椎病變) ，而同樣重要的例如矯正可能導致這個症狀的肩膀生物力學問題，例如肩部的肌肉失衡，姿勢及胸椎肋骨活動問題。

治療隨筆。
言簡意賅。
