💡 Ever seen a laser used for neck rehab? This drill is called laser-guided cervical stabilization — and it’s one of the many ways physical therapy can help retrain your deep neck stabilizers for better posture, control, and pain relief.

Here’s how it works:
👉 A small laser is mounted on the forehead
👉 The goal is to trace an X pattern, maze, or similar obstacle on the board across the room
👉 This challenges neck stability, body awareness, and coordination — all key for reducing pain and preventing future injury

Neck pain, stiffness, or poor posture doesn’t have to limit your daily life. With the right approach, you can restore strength, improve stability, and feel in control again.

⚠️ Is your young athlete pushing too hard? Overtraining can lead to injuries, fatigue, and setbacks — even before the season starts.

Look out for warning signs like unusual tiredness, persistent aches, frequent illness, or complaints of pain that won’t go away. 🏃‍♀️💤

Encourage rest days, proper warm-ups, smart conditioning, and good nutrition. And remember — pain isn’t just part of the game. Starting 4–6 weeks before the season with a tailored PT program helps their body adapt safely and build strength, balance, and endurance.

Keep your athlete safe, strong, and ready for a fun, successful season!

Are you experiencing low back pain with exercise? Try these core activation exercises: the goal here is to ensure your core muscles are working and protecting your spine during activity. Think “belly button to spine” before you do any exercise at the gym. Try 2-3 sets of 10 for each of these. This activation can be difficult, so if you are unfamiliar or are unsure if you are doing these correctly PLEASE call to schedule an evaluation or free consultation at 215-997-9898. Our therapists are highly trained in teaching people how to use their muscles the correct way.
