The ability outlets to open directly affects an athlete's ability to move and be adaptable to the variations within their sport. This is just a brief explanation of what we saw in the clinic today regarding a beach volleyball athlete.
Check out our website to learn more about us and if this video resonates with you, realize that it might not be just fatigue or lack of focus affecting your ability to be adaptable and quick.

Welcome to 2026! We hope that everyone had an amazing holiday!
Starting out the year with a general explanation of what it means to be truly grounded in order to move.
Give yourself the gift as the year gets started of coming in, getting tested, and implementing things on your own to relieve pain, move better, improve performance, and hopefully minimize chance of injury.
A little reminder that grounding in movement and sports is not symmetrical meaning that while one side of the body is compressed loaded and grounding The other side is decompressed and free (ie loading/ compressing left side while right is decompressed for a right arm to be free and throw) We need to train functionally and train the ability for each side to be working in an alternating fashion.
The ability to do the above will allow your body to deal with the variability of movement in sport as well as in life.

Are you unsure of your movement prep or warm up routines. Do you feel, even after warming up that you are still not quite "ready" to move or that something is still tight or sore? Do you have to keep grabbing various massage tools to get you "ready"

Creating functional stability/grounding to enhance functional mobility before training is like dynamic warmups on steroids. It's the brain -body connect that will create truthful/uncompensated movement strategies.

Grounding gains (right)on one side while other side (left) is open and free. I actually spent a few sets on each side so I could assess which side was more challenged and spend more time there.

If you are struggling with recurring issues out there, we would love to help you implement a specific routine that matches your body so that you can optimize your movement and feel your best!

So grateful for this community and truly enjoyed having a great crew this morning. As Gina and I guided people through various grounding techniques before, they had the opportunity to mix in a little red light, sauna, and plunge, what a great combination of activities to start the day!

Do you have chronic and recurring pain? Or do you have an injury that keeps coming back? Oftentimes that is being driven by the inability to ground or load into one or both sides of your body. When you are missing these components, it is usually just a matter of time before tissue, somewhere in the chain becomes compromised and an injury or pain can occur.

Based on testing in our clinic it was discovered that I have loss of grounding into the right side.

We came up with this technique/variation in order to promote more truthful right grounding sense to resolve my knee pain during controlled dynamic loading while working out in the gym.

After this variation when I superset this with a traditional two-legged leg press, I definitely had more power through my hips and core without knee pain.

If you feel like you need further insight as to how to help yourself heal, move better, and enjoy the things you love. Love, please reach out to us. We are happy to assess you and give you guidance on how you can sprinkle these things into your world.

So cool to see athletes reaching their goals! Baseball I have learned over the years is intense. The season is long, the games are many, the intense focus while being relaxed is always needed. The constant travel and adapting to new environments is real.
We love to give these athletes things that they can take with them and hopefully use well beyond their time at Synergy. Our goal is for them to optimize their movement strategies, so they can move freely and efficiently with clear focus.
Excited to see one in the World Series!

Keep on doing what they love.... for
as long as they can
