"Important neck pain prevention tips everyone should follow"

Taking care of neck pain can be very costly: regular massages, physical therapy, chiropractic care, and doctor’s visits all add up. In some cases, imaging, cortisone injections, or even surgery may be needed. Even with good health insurance, there are still copays and deductibles to consider.

Forward head posture is detrimental to your neck health, and I’m here to share some budget-friendly tips to help you avoid it.

1. Maintain good neck posture:
Your head should face forward with your chin above your chest and your shoulders rolled back.

2. Optimize your desk ergonomics:
There is a strong correlation between desk work and neck pain. Make sure your workstation is set up so you can get through your 8-hour workday without aches and pains.

3. Take regular breaks:
Take a quick 10-second break every 20 minutes or so. When we get focused at work, we tend to drift into poor posture without realizing it. Poor posture doesn’t last five minutes. It usually lasts for hours

If you follow these three principles, you can greatly reduce your neck pain. Without them, even frequent treatment is unlikely to give lasting results.

Remember, sometimes the best way to get out of pain doesn’t cost anything.

Is it Christmas yet?

Have you gotten your chicken dinner yet? We’ve mailed out over 200 coupons this Thanksgiving season! If you didn’t receive one and would like one, just stop by and grab yours.

It’s not “$10 off when you spend $20.”
It’s not “buy one, get one free.”
It’s not a gimmick.

You can truly walk out of Dots Market on Alex Bell Rd with a chicken dinner without paying a dime!

Why? Because I’m grateful for you, and I want to give you something tangible, something you can actually feel and enjoy. And what’s better than a hot, broasted chicken meal during this cold, frigid weather?

See you soon. Dinner’s on me!

"Fear of falling"

The two biggest indicators of fall risk are, number one, the fear of falling, and number two, a history of falling. At Your Neighbor Physical Therapy, we offer a specialized program designed to strengthen your lower body and improve your balance. We also use various devices to enhance your reaction time, helping our patients regain confidence when they’re out and about.

Ask your friends, family members, or parents if they have a fear of falling. If the answer is “yes,” it likely means they’ve fallen before. And statistically speaking, their risk of falling again within the next six months is high.

Talk to us and find out how we can help. There’s a lot you can do before you get hurt.

"Unlock your peak performance"

We help athletes move better and perform better.

If you’re an athlete, have you ever thought about how much your movement pattern affects your performance? Small changes can make a big difference. For example, by simply correcting movement patterns, a novice weightlifter can often improve their personal record by 10-15% in just one session.

For runners, we use an iPad app to record and analyze your running form. You’ll see detailed data and visual feedback right away. Recently, we worked with an avid runner who had been experiencing hip pain. After correcting his running form, he was able to run pain-free again, a huge progress for someone so passionate about running.

We’ve also helped golfers and bowlers improve their performance through movement analysis.

If you want to take your performance to the next level, come see us. You’ll be glad you did.

"Got rib problem?"

There are three layers of muscles between each rib, and like any other muscle in the body, they can become strained, sore, and painful. As physical therapists, we can use stretching or massage to help decrease discomfort, but one of the most effective techniques for rib pain is cupping.

During my dry needling training, the instructors specifically emphasized using cupping for rib pain. Because the rib muscles are located so close to the lungs, dry needling in this area carries a risk. No one expects to end up with a punctured lung after physical therapy, so we avoid that altogether because safety is of course our highest priority.

If you’re dealing with a rib problem, whether from a fall, a sports injury, or even after a boxing match, we can help you recover. Safely.

"A Pop on the Field? Call Us First"

This week, a gentleman called us because of leg pain. He was playing softball, and when he pushed off to run, he heard a pop. I had him come in during my lunch break because I just had to know if he had torn something. It’s awful when someone has a serious injury and is told to wait before being seen. I also told him that if he had torn something, I wouldn’t charge him. Unfortunately, based on my examination, I believe he did. I gave him instructions, answered his questions, and we set up an appointment for rehabilitation down the road.

If you ever find yourself in a similar situation and believe you’ve seriously hurt yourself, don’t play the guessing game. Give us a call! Physical therapists are trained to examine injuries without an x-ray or MRI.

And if you have a tear, I won’t charge you.

"How Getting Jacked Can Help Your Joint Pain”

One way we help our patients is by strengthening their muscles. Imagine you are a patient with advanced knee arthritis who is not a candidate for knee replacement surgery. What can we do as physical therapists? One of the most effective treatments is strengthening the muscles around the knee. With improved strength, you can maximize the function of the joint. Of course, it takes a careful and specialized approach to strengthen a painful joint, and that is what our training is for.

Physical therapists are the experts in conservative musculoskeletal care.
If you think this approach could benefit you, reach out to us. We’d love to have a conversation.

And...sometimes our patients bring us flowers and Esther Price chocolates. The chocolates aren’t in the picture because they are...not here.

"How effective are we?"

Last week, a patient texted us and asked, “How effective are you at treating SI joint problems?” I replied, “We see many people with SI joint issues, and we’ve had a lot of satisfied patients. But you should be the one to decide how effective we are.”

For those who may not know, the SI joint is the connection between your spine and pelvis, and it is a common source of low back and hip pain. At Your Neighbor Physical Therapy, we address SI joint pain with joint manipulations, soft tissue work, assisted stretching, and targeted exercises. Depending on your tolerance level, we may also use advanced dry needling or cupping techniques.

No matter what techniques we use, our focus is always on whether you feel better. Our approach is patient-centered and results-driven. And if we find that physical therapy isn’t helping you, we’ll be honest and let you know.

Do you struggle with SI joint pain? If so, come see us, and you can be the judge of how effective we are.

"Why Choose Us Even Without Insurance?"

Your Neighbor Physical Therapy does not accept health insurance, and people often wonder why patients would choose us when they could use their insurance for physical therapy. One reason is simple: we provide better care. We use hands-on techniques like manual therapy, joint manipulation, and soft tissue work, etc. We also spend more one-on-one time with each patient, which helps them recover faster. Per our Google reviews, patients often describe that we “take the time” to listen to them.

Of course, some patients prefer to stay within their insurance, and that can work just fine. But if you are not getting the results you want, consider coming to us. There is no doubt that we provide higher quality care.
