Happy Saturday, everyone!

Today, we’re going to talk about hamstring injuries. They take a very long time to heal and If not taken care of properly, they may never recover at 💯. They will scar over, lose its flexibility, and can potentially impact the low back. We have a professional soccer player from Germany who came all the way to US and me to take care of her injured hamstring. After 6 sessions of PT in conjunction with Dry Needling , she made 80% of progress and on the way to full recovery 🧡! Call us for appointments, early intervention is the key!

Happy Tuesday,everyone!🌸
This interesting case makes you wonder about so many things. This patient’s right thoracic curve (3CR) is 55 degrees and most likely was developed in adolescence (as patient mentioned that she always felt that she wasn’t straight but never had it checked out by Doctor). Furthermore!!! At 63 y/o, it progressed tremendously and she presented to me with very significant left lean, pain in the lumbar spine, and inability to stand up straight and difficulty functioning. Patient is highly motivated and is working hard in PT and you can see this amazing progress in pictures just in 3 sessions. This patient graciously volunteered these pictures and her story as she wants to create awareness!
-Scoliosis affects 3% of all population
-It’s absolutely critical that yearly scoliosis screenings are performed for your kids, especially ages 9-14.
-Early intervention (Schroth PT and Bracing if indicated) can make a world of difference.
Call us for Scoliosis screenings and if referred for Schroth Physical Therapy!

Happy chilly Monday, everyone!❄️☃️
Today let’s talk about posterior tibial tendonitis-that is a common problem that occurs when the tendons on the inner side of the ankle become damaged. The posterior tibial tendon helps support the arch of the foot while walking and running. The symptoms include:
❄️pain, swelling and tenderness along the inner (medial) side of the ankle and foot
❄️ankle roll inward/falling arch
❄️pain and difficulty pointing toes inward ❄️difficulty and pain with walking
❄️pain and difficulty standing on your toes ❄️pain that increases with running, jumping, or climbing
In addition, if left untreated and symptoms exacerbate, one can be risking potential rupture of the tendon.
Call us 770-623-0105 for appointments if this rings a bell 🔔🥰

Happy 🍁 leafy and pumpkin spice 🍁Monday! Hope you all enjoying this beautiful fall season!
Today’s topic is pain referral patterns and Dry Needling treatment for the most commonly involved muscles in Cervicogenic Headaches -Upper Trapezius and Sternocleidomastoid (SCM). Any changes in those muscles traumatic (ie whiplash/neck injury), or not (ie poor posture/stress) can cause development of trigger points. If trigger points are active, it can cause pain locally in the muscle; and, additionally refer pain away in the form of a headache.
Dry Needling treatment releases Trigger Points and improves the blood flow to the area, causing muscles to heal and symptoms of pain and headache to decrease.
Do these referral patterns look familiar?😉

Happy, sunny Monday, everyone!🌞🌞🌞

Interesting Facts about the Cobb angle:

🌸it measures Scoliosis
🌸specifically, it measures the curve between top most tilted vertebrae (UEV) and bottom most tilted vertebrae (LEV)
🌸it’s measured on X-Ray
🌸it’s measured in degrees
🌸this angle is what determines whether the scoliosis is mild (10-29 deg) moderate (30-49 deg) or major (>50 deg)
🌸scoliosis is diagnosed when Cobb angle is 10 degrees or more
🌸there’s less Cobb in the morning, and more Cobb in afternoon. Try to guess why!😉
