The McKenzie Method: Not Just for Spines! 🧠🦴💪

When most people hear “McKenzie Method,” they think back pain—and they’re not wrong! This globally recognized approach to Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy (MDT) is a gold standard for assessing and treating spinal issues.

But here’s what many don’t know:
👉 The McKenzie Method is also highly effective for treating extremity pain—including knees, shoulders, hips, elbows, and more.

🔍 At Anchored Spine and Pelvic Therapy, we go beyond the spine. With advanced extremity training, we take a full-body approach to physical therapy that is patient-centered, efficient, and evidence-based.

🧠 Why it works:
The McKenzie Method emphasizes:
• Careful movement-based assessment
• Identification of directional preference
• Patient empowerment through self-treatment strategies
• Minimizing unnecessary imaging or prolonged passive treatments

📊 Evidence-based & Effective
✅ A 2022 systematic review in Musculoskeletal Science and Practice found MDT to be as effective or more effective than other interventions for both spinal and peripheral joint pain, especially in improving pain, function, and patient satisfaction.
✅ MDT promotes faster return to function with fewer treatment sessions, and significantly reduces the need for surgery in some cases.

📍Come see how a tailored, mechanical diagnosis can lead to the right mechanical solution—no matter where you hurt.

Seemingly taboo topic — but I’m going there:

LUBRICATION! Dun, dun, duuun! 🧴🧴🧴

A common phrase I say in the clinic is:
👉 “There’s no shame in the game.”

Meaning, don’t be intimidated to use the tools available to you- especially ones that can help with pain or pleasure. The need to use l**e is never an indication you are “broken” (THAT’S the taboo to crush! 💣). It’s a beneficial product that can help in many situations:

• Vaginal dryness- hello hormones!
• Pelvic floor tension or pain (e.g., dyspareunia, vaginismus)
• Increased comfort during physical exams (Pap smears, etc.)
• Improved sexual pleasure and sensation. 💥
• Reducing friction with menstrual products or pelvic tools
• Easier use of pelvic floor tools (like dilators or wands)

I’ve got a FREE guide that dives deeper into:
✅ Types of l**e
✅ Brand comparison
✅ pH & osmolarity
✅ Ingredients to love (and avoid!)

Drop a “l**e” in the comments or DM me, and I’ll send it your way! 🤩

🌿 Now Scheduling at Anchored Spine and Pelvic Therapy! 🌿

I’m excited to share that I’m now officially open for scheduling! I accept Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS), Tricare, Medicare, and offer cash rates to make care as accessible and affordable as possible.

✨ Direct access is available — meaning you don’t always need a referral to start care — but many insurance plans still require a referral for coverage.

📝 The easiest way to get a referral is to let your provider (MD, DO, OB/GYN, etc.) know that you’d like to come to Anchored Spine and Pelvic Therapy, and have them fax the referral to:

📠 Fax: 334-219-5348

💬 I’m always here to help guide you through the referral process — just call or text me any time:

📞 Phone/Text: 334-301-5526

And remember — you have a choice in where you receive your care. 💚 I’d be honored to be part of your healing journey.

🌸 Did you know your blood estrogen levels can be “normal” — and you can STILL benefit from topical vaginal estrogen?

Many women are told their hormone labs look fine, yet they still experience:
✨ Vaginal dryness
✨ Burning or irritation
✨ Pain with in*******se
✨ Recurrent UTIs
✨ Urinary urgency or frequency

This is because serum estrogen doesn’t always reflect what’s happening locally in the vaginal tissues, and many times pelvic floor therapists see tissue changes during a pelvic exam, like l***a minora resorption and color changes.

🧴 Topical (vaginal) estrogen delivers estrogen directly to the tissues that need it — helping restore moisture, elasticity, pH balance, and tissue health.

💡 If you’re experiencing these symptoms, talk to your healthcare provider. Relief is possible — and you’re not alone.

Thank you Rachel S. Rubin MD - Urologist and Sexual Medicine Specialist for this amazing pocket guide.

I’m nerding out this afternoon, y’all, but I CANNOT HELP IT. Just read this! 🤯🤯🤯

“The suggested timeframe for referral to (pelvic floor) physical therapy is 2 to 6 weeks after delivery.

Women who report definite symptoms (ie, pain, incontinence, or pelvic pressure) or who sustain a major pelvic floor injury should be given referral priority, as they would maximally benefit from early guided rehabilitation to address tissue- and activity-level impairments.

To compare birth injury to a common orthopedic injury, there are approximately 200,000 anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries per year in the United States alone. Birth injuries are similar to ACL injuries in that their presentation is highly variable; thus, management must be personalized to consider patient preferences, injury severity, and long-term prognosis. Considering the annual vaginal birth rate of 3 million and a levator ani injury rate of 19%,10 570,000 women sustain a birth injury per year. Therefore, birth injury affects almost 3 times the number of people sustaining ACL injuries. Even though physical therapy is part of the standard of care management for an ACL injury, far fewer women are receiving care for injuries resulting from birth—injuries that, when left untreated, can lead to short- and long-term disabilities. Physical therapists are well positioned to serve as care team members to assist in pain management, functional restoration, and disability prevention in this patient population.”
