How important is it for the joint to pop during an adjustment? 🤔

It turns out that the pop isn’t that important.

The pop comes from gases being released in the joint during the adjustment. But regardless of a pop, joints move, and muscles relax after an adjustment!

Are you experiencing pain in the outer part of your elbow? It could be tennis elbow, which affects tennis players and anyone doing repetitive arm movements.

While most treatment is focused on strengthening the wrist extensor muscles, a recent study found that “nerve flossing” was even more effective in treating tennis elbow.

Fortunately, nerve flossing is one of the tools that our office uses to combat pain. Whether tennis elbow keeps you off the courts or gives you pain with opening jars, contact our clinic today! 🙌

Why do we evaluate the muscles and joints that aren’t in pain? 🤔

For example, if you suffered a pulled hamstring, why would we evaluate your back as well?

The reason is that it is all connected! 🧩

To expand on the hamstring example, it was found that those with a history of hamstring strain had increased stiffness in the muscles in the lower back.

If we only treat the hamstring and ignore the back, you might not fully recover when you return to your daily activities.

Do you sense your ankle hasn’t felt the same since you sprained it? 🤔

After an ankle sprain, some cases progress to chronic ankle instability.

One essential goal of ankle rehab is to restore range of motion and strength before it progresses to a chronic issue.

But there's good news for those who develop chronic problems. Strengthening and balance exercises can still help restore ankle function, even in patients with chronic instability. 🙌

Pain on the bottom of your heel with the first few steps in the morning? 🦶

This is a common symptom of plantar fasciitis.

While it may feel that the plantar fascia is tight and needs to be loosened, recent research has actually found that it is less stiff in those with plantar fasciitis!

This is why it is important to implement the correct stability program to return the fascia back to its normal stiffness!

We treat plantar fasciitis at our office! Check out this infographic for more information. 👍 https://bit.ly/46EjX6w
