It can be scary to navigate movement and activity with pain.

Does pain mean stop or should we ignore it and push forward? What if things get worse?

We’ll answer these questions and more as we have you move and experience your body in different ways!

We think of flexibility as a good thing but can it be too much?

In PT school, we’re taught that range of motion is a “the more the better” situation.

Sure, having good mobility is great, especially if you have good control of it. But what happens when you dont?

Hypermobility can range from severe, like Ehler’s Danlos Syndrome, to having excessive range of motion.

The effect this has on your brain can be significant as the brain relies on sensing the body for good information to make decisions and move through space safely.

When your body isn’t giving the brain good feedback through tension, the brain lives in a state of tension itself. Think fight-or-flight.

This can lead to all sorts of problems, tensions, and pains.

Are you hypermobile or know someone with hyper mobility?

First time remixing and had to cram everything into the short video 🤣🤣

Ribcage position can change how the shoulder, neck and back works.

A forward ribcage increases compression throughout the body. Abs are off, back muscles are on, and shoulder mobility becomes limited.

This can help you push more weight but also drives up the nervous system to a more sympathetic, or fight-or-flight, response.

A retracted ribcage decreases compression, uses more abs while reducing back muscle recruitment. This usually means you wont be able to lift as much weight but also is more decompressive in nature, or more parasympathetic.

Shoulder pain can be painful and scary

Its the most mobile joint in the body and we use it all the time during our daily lives

Improving scapular kinematics, ribcage position, and mobility of the shoulder joint itself is critical

If you or anybody you know are dealing with shoulder issues, reach out. We’d love to help!

Too much of one thing is bad, even if that one thing is healthy for you

This is why there is no such thing as the perfect posture

Eat only salads and eventually a big mac becomes healthy

We need variability, we need options, we need diversity

Switch things up, have fun, and get moving
