Do you ever feel like you have a rib out of place? 🥵

Does it never seem to go away no matter what you try - traditional chiropractics, massage, stretching, resting?

💬 RIBS if this is something you struggle with!

This is one of the most common mid-back complaints that we get from patients.

Common symptoms include pain while seated, turning over in bed, taking a deep breath, and twisting.

It may even feel like the pain wraps around your side to the front of the body.

Sometimes, the rib is not even the problem. Often times, we find a lot of tension in muscles in the back.

There is one particular muscle that we have found to be a common culprit: longissimus thoracis.

The longissimus thoracis is a major stabilizer that runs parallel to the spine and connects to ever rib along the way.

If there are adhesions along the longissimus thoracis, it can become chronically tight. If it is chronically tight, it will be constantly tugging on the ribs, which may make it feel like a rib is out of place.

🥵 Do you suffer from chronic pain?

✅ 3+ months?
✅ Already tried massage, physical therapy, acupuncture, stretching…

💬 ADHESION if this sounds like you!

If you feel like you’ve tried it all and are just stuck with your pain forever…

It’s probably our turn to give it a go 💪💪💪

What makes what we do different?
�We find the piece that is often overlooked: adhesions.

Adhesions are like glue that restrict your nerves and muscles from gliding the way they should.

Tension, limited mobility, and joint pain are often symptoms of adhesions — not the actual source of your pain.

Just as you see in this video, our providers are trained to:
🔹Find the inflamed or restricted nerves
🔹Identify the adhesions pinning them down
🔹Apply precise tension to tear the adhesion while our assistant moves the area to lengthen surrounding muscles and tissues

This restores nerve glide, reduces irritation, and helps your body move (and feel!) the way it’s supposed to.

💬 Comment ADHESION if you suspect this might be what’s holding YOU back.

Do you have low back pain AND tight quads? 🤔
�Did you know your low back pain might actually be coming from your tight quads? 🧐
�And that your tight quads might be caused by adhesions along one or multiple of the nerves that run down the front of your thigh?

If you’ve stretched, massaged, or foam rolled your quads and they still feel chronically tight, you may have glue-like adhesions pinning down your nerves and limiting your mobility and range of motion.

By releasing those adhesions, we can help restore nerve glide, improve mobility, and reduce the tension pulling on your low back.

👉 If this sounds like you, schedule a consult with our team and start moving without restriction.

Do you ever wake up in the middle of the night and your arms or hands have fallen asleep?

There are several nerves that originate in the neck and travel down the arm, each responsible for sensation and movement in different parts of the arm and hand.

When one of these nerves becomes restricted or adhered to surrounding tissues, it can alter how signals are sent, sometimes showing up as numbness, tingling, or that familiar “falling asleep” feeling. This might happen while holding your phone, sleeping, reaching overhead, or in other specific positions.

This is how we approach treating these restrictions. We assess where the nerve isn’t moving freely and apply precise tension to help restore that glide. Depending on how many adhesions are involved, it may take multiple passes to fully address the issue.

Did you know chronic low back pain can sometimes stem from nerve adhesions in the lower abdomen? ��We see this pain pattern most often in women who have had C-sections or other pelvic surgeries.��Scar tissue from these procedures–or from trauma to the region–can create adhesions that “glue” a nerve in place, leading to symptoms such as pain, weakness, or limited mobility.��Here we are treating the pyramidalis muscle, which is innervated by a nerve originating at the L1 vertebra. ��This nerve travels across the iliac crest to the lower abdomen. When adhesions form along its path, they can contribute to persistent back pain. ��Unfortunately, this is often overlooked if a provider isn’t familiar with adhesions and / or how they can affect an entire nerve pathway. ��If you have had a C-section or pelvic surgery and struggle with ongoing back pain, this may be the missing piece! ��If you’ve ��✅ experienced pain for 3+ months AND��✅ seen 3+ providers (think: massage, traditional chiropractic, physical therapy, etc.)��DM us “back pain” to start the root cause and begin your healing journey!

Chronic hamstring tightness isn’t always about stretching more.

Sometimes, it’s about freeing a nerve from adhesions that are restricting its movement.

When a nerve becomes adhered to surrounding tissues, it can’t glide the way it’s meant to.That may show up as persistent muscle tightness, early fatigue, or tension that never really resolves.

Here, we’re treating the sciatic nerve, which can contribute not only to hamstring tightness, but also glute, hip and low back discomfort.

Restoring proper nerve glide by releasing these adhesions allows the nerve, muscles, and surrounding tissues to function the way they should, and that’s when things finally start to ease up.

😖 Do you have neck pain, headaches, poor posture?

✅ Has it been more than 3 months?

✅ Have you already tried massage, physical therapy, acupuncture, and stretching, with no lasting relief?

If nothing seems to be working, it’s possible that the issue is an entrapped nerve.

When a nerve is glued down to surrounding tissues, it can lead to limited range of motion, muscles that fatigue quickly, pain, tingling, and more.

Our providers are trained to:
🔹Find the inflamed or restricted nerves
🔹Identify the adhesion(s) gluing them down
🔹Apply precise tension to tear the adhesion while our assistant moves the area to lengthen surrounding muscles and tissues

This restores nerve glide, reduces irritation, and helps your body move (and feel!) the way it’s supposed to.

💬 PAIN if you’re ready to get back to living a pain free life 🤩

There was already some decent range here… but also pain and room for improvement.

In this case, there was discomfort in the front of the shoulder along with limited internal rotation.

Here we’re treating two key nerve pathways that run along a rotator cuff muscle responsible for that motion.

When these nerves become restricted, it can affect both how the shoulder moves and how it feels.

After just a couple passes, you can see the change — not just in range, but in the quality of the movement and overall comfort.

We’re not just chasing more motion.
�We’re looking for smoother, optimized, comfortable movement.

Do you have chronic low back pain or tightness?

Does your low back burn or spasm when bending over, leaning to the sides, twisting, or picking things up?

This patient was experiencing all of the above.

Any time we hear burning or spasming, we are thinking a nerve problem.

So, we identified some pretty major adhesion in nerves that start in the low back and work their way down to the glute.

Adhesions are scar tissue that act like glue in your body. They can pin a nerve down, attaching it to a muscle or tissue adjacent to it.

Sometimes adhesions may exist without causing any symptoms.

More often, they end up being the root cause of your chronic pain.

It takes a lot of skill and practice to be able to feel the nerves in the body as well as to actually locate the adhesions along the nerves.

If you have

✅ Had chronic pain for more than three months
✅ Seen at least three providers without any relief

It is possible that adhesions re the root cause of your pain.

DM us or call the office to schedule a consultation with one of our providers!

Adhesions are essentially bands of scar tissue that form to protect your body — in this case, a nerve.

Your body lays down adhesions when it senses irritation in response to overuse, repetitive stress, poor mechanics, to name a few.

It’s like your body’s quick way to patch things up.

One clue that adhesions may be present is nerve swelling.

When a nerve is restricted and can’t glide freely, circulation is compromised.

The adhesion may not be directly at the swollen point of the nerve, so it is important to test the movement above and below.

If you’ve had pain, tingling, muscle fatigue, spasms, burning…

✅ more than 3 moths
✅ already tried massage, physical therapy, traditional chiropractics, acupuncture, stretching with no lasting relief

You may have adhesions that need to be release!
