Sitting or standing with poor posture can strain your spine, shoulders, and hips, leading to discomfort and long-term joint issues. Whether you’re at a desk, in class, or on the go, keeping your shoulders relaxed, your back straight, and your core engaged helps maintain healthy alignment. Small adjustments like proper chair height, screen positioning, and regular breaks to stretch make a big difference over time.

Mr. Jimmy Young and Mr. Richard Parker arrived at the hospital in October 2024 with hopes of healing and being able to regain their active lifestyles. Mr. Young and Mr. Parker were team mates on the Co-Ed Senior League Softball team in Dothan Alabama and were trusting Dr. Jonathan Jennings to successfully operate using the MAKO robotic arm assistance to make that happen.

Mr. Jimmy Young suffered from knee pain for years. He tried conservative treatment prior to finally receiving Right Total Knee Arthroplasty using the MAKO robotic arm
assistance in October 2024 by Dr. Jonathan Jennings. At his one year post operative check-up, he reports that he is no longer in pain and can enjoy his everyday activities
such as playing sports and remaining active.

Mr. Richard Parker suffered from years of hip pain that continued to worsen. As a very active person, he was unable to do activities that he enjoyed, even struggling to get out of his chair. In October 2024, he underwent surgery for Right Total Hip Arthroplasty using the MAKO robotic arm assistance by Dr. Jonathan Jennings. He was able to return to work in two weeks and able to resume jogging within five months. At his one year post operative check-up, he reports living an active life with minimal pain.

Both Mr. Young and Mr. Parker had their procedures on the same day in October 2024 and both had their post operative follow-up appointments on the same day in October 2025. Released and ready to get back on the field.

Take the first step toward reclaiming your active life. Book your appointment today!

Elicia has been selected by Dr. Jonathan Jennings as a Southern Bone and Joint Specialists Super Star Patient. She had been struggling with pain in her right knee for years. Despite previous surgery for arthritis and scar tissue, her condition continued to worsen. “Just walking was painful, climbing stairs was nearly impossible. My knee would randomly give out, and the constant pain would keep me awake at night,” Elicia shared. She tried more conservative measures like knee injections and walking for exercise, but nothing brought lasting relief.

Elicia knew of Dr. Jennings because he had successfully operated on her mother’s right knee. “His knowledge and bedside manner were amazing. I knew he had to be my surgeon,” she explained. In September 2023, she underwent a Right Total Knee Replacement, and her pain is now gone. While she still has minor bending restrictions due to scar tissue, the improvement has been life-changing.

Today, Elicia enjoys attending regular classes at Orange Theory Fitness and continues to live her best, active life. When asked if she would recommend SBJS to family and friends, she enthusiastically responded, “100% yes! Dr. Jennings is an excellent surgeon! But also, very caring.” Thank you, Elicia, for sharing your inspiring story — we are so proud of you!

Warm-up exercises are essential before any sports activity. They prepare your muscles, increase blood flow, and reduce the risk of injuries, helping you perform at your best.

Warm-up tips:

Start with 5–10 minutes of light cardio like jogging or jumping jacks
Include dynamic stretches targeting major muscle groups
Focus on movements specific to your sport
Gradually increase intensity to prime your body for action
