🌟 5 Things To Know About Persistent Pain

1️⃣ Pain Isn’t Always About Injury: Pain can stick around even after your body has healed.

2️⃣ Nervous System on High Alert: Sometimes, your nervous system stays overly sensitive, sending pain signals even when there’s no real threat.

3️⃣ Body’s Overprotection: The body might “play it safe” and keep warning you, even when the injury risk is gone.

4️⃣ Mind-Body Connection: Stress, anxiety, and negative thoughts can make pain feel worse, creating a cycle of pain and stress.

5️⃣ Physiologically-Informed Treatment: Physical Therapy utilizes advanced understanding of musculoskeletal physiology to deliver targeted and lasting relief. Personalized treatments aim to normalize nervous system function, restore biomechanical balance, and promote optimal healing.

03/25/2024

👉Limited ankle flexion, or the restricted ability of the ankle joint to move through its full range of motion, can contribute to knee pain in several ways:

🚨Altered Gait and Movement Patterns:

👉When the ankle does not flex properly, it can alter the way a person walks or runs. This can lead to compensatory movements higher up the leg, including at the knee, which may place abnormal stress on the knee joint and surrounding muscles.

🚨Increased Pressure on the Knee:

👉Limited ankle flexion often forces the knee to absorb more shock than usual during activities such as walking, running, or jumping. Over time, this increased load can lead to pain and discomfort in the knee area.

🚨Imbalanced Muscle Forces:

👉The body may compensate for limited ankle flexion by overusing certain muscles and underusing others.

👉This can lead to imbalances around the knee joint, with some muscles becoming overly tight and others weakened. Such imbalances can pull the knee out of its optimal alignment, leading to pain.

🚨Reduced Shock Absorption:

👉The ankle, knee, and hip joints work together to absorb shock when the foot hits the ground. If the ankle cannot flex properly, it may not absorb shock as effectively, transferring more force to the knee and hip. Over time, this can lead to wear and tear on the knee joint and associated structures.

🚨Change in Joint Mechanics:

👉Limited ankle flexion can alter the mechanics of the knee joint during movement. This can affect how forces are distributed across the knee joint surfaces, potentially leading to increased stress on certain areas of the knee, which can cause pain and lead to degenerative changes over time.

🌟 Choosing the right recovery methods can make all the difference in the quest for optimal health and peak performance. Check out some of the cool recovery tech we offer our patients below ⬇️⬇️⬇️

🌟 NormaTec Compression System

✅ This state-of-the-art recovery tool utilizes sequential pulse technology to enhance blood circulation and speed up muscle recovery. By mimicking the natural muscle pump of the legs, arms, and hips, NormaTec effectively reduces muscle soreness and improves circulation, making it indispensable for anyone looking to enhance their recovery regimen.

🌟 Hypervolt Massage Guns

✅ Utilizing percussive massage therapy, these handheld devices deliver rapid, concentrated pressure to sore and stiff muscles, effectively breaking up knots and increasing circulation. The result? A significant reduction in muscle soreness and stiffness, paving the way for improved mobility and faster recovery.

🌟 Hyperice Contrast System

✅ The Hyperice Contrast System introduces a groundbreaking approach to recovery by harnessing the power of temperature contrast therapy. Alternating between hot and cold treatments, this system drastically reduces inflammation, eases pain, and accelerates the body’s natural healing processes.

🌟 Electrical Stimulation

✅ At Balanced Physical Therapy, we utilize a variety of electrical stimulation treatments, including TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) and NMES (Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation), tailored to meet our clients’ specific needs. These treatments are instrumental in accelerating recovery, enhancing muscle function, and reducing pain without needing medication.

🌟 Ultrasound Therapy

✅ This non-invasive treatment uses sound waves to pe*****te deep into tissue, promoting healing and reducing inflammation. The gentle heat generated by the ultrasound waves helps to increase blood flow, decrease swelling, and break down scar tissue, facilitating a smoother and quicker recovery process.

🚨Muscle imbalances occur when there’s a significant difference in the strength or size of muscles on opposite sides of the body or within different parts of the same muscle group.

🚨These imbalances can compromise our body’s ability to perform efficiently and effectively, leading to a heightened risk of injuries and a potential decrease in overall physical performance.

👍Recognizing and addressing these imbalances is crucial for anyone looking to maintain optimal body function, whether you’re an athlete, a weekend warrior, or someone navigating the challenges of everyday activities.

👍This comprehensive guide explores the causes, symptoms, impacts, and corrective strategies for muscle imbalances, emphasizing the pivotal role of physical therapy in managing this widespread issue.

🌟 The Barbell Rehab Method (BRM) offers a comprehensive and evidence-based approach to physical therapy that integrates strength training principles with rehabilitation principles to promote optimal recovery and functional outcomes.

🌟 The BRM approach can be applied to individuals of different age groups and activity levels by tailoring the rehabilitation program to meet each individual’s specific needs, goals, and capabilities. Here’s how it can be adapted for different populations:

🌟 Young Adults and Athletes

📌 The BRM focus may be restoring strength, mobility, and function to facilitate a safe return to sports or other high-intensity activities.

📌 The rehabilitation program may include more advanced barbell exercises and progressions, such as plyometric variations, dynamic movements, and sport-specific drills, to challenge their strength and athleticism.

🌟 Middle-Aged Adults

📌 Can benefit from BRM by addressing age-related changes, musculoskeletal issues, or injuries related to work, daily activities, or recreational pursuits.

📌 Exercises are selected and modified based on individual capabilities and goals, emphasizing improving movement patterns, joint mobility, and muscular strength to support daily activities and maintain independence.

🌟 Older Adults

📌 BRM can help address age-related strength, balance, and mobility declines and manage chronic conditions such as osteoarthritis or osteoporosis.

📌 Exercises are selected and progressed cautiously, considering factors such as joint health, balance impairments, and mobility limitations. Modifications may include using lighter weights, incorporating balance training, and focusing on functional movements relevant to daily activities.

🌟 Sedentary or Deconditioned Individuals

📌 Can benefit from BRM to improve overall fitness, health, and well-being and manage chronic conditions such as obesity, diabetes, or cardiovascular disease.

📌 Exercises are selected and progressed based on individual fitness levels and tolerance, emphasizing gradual progression, proper technique, and personalized support to overcome barriers and build confidence in physical activity participation.
