Sometimes, babies can carry quite a bit of tension. Doing simple stretches and exercises can help relieve that tension for your child.

Tension may look like colicky & fussy, closed fists that won’t open, stiffness in the body, their limbs don’t move in a fluid motion or much at all, not prgressing through milestones properly, & other ways.

If you have questions DM us or call our office to schedule an evaluation for your child!

Sometimes the 90/90 stretch is not the best fit for everyone, and that’s okay. If it feels uncomfortable or too aggressive.

Try the hip airplane instead.

This movement helps improve hip control and mobility without forcing your body into ranges it may not be ready for yet.

Start standing in a slight hip hinge with support for balance if needed. Extend the opposite leg behind you. Slowly rotate your hips open toward the ceiling, then back down toward the floor with control. Move slowly through both internal and external hip rotation.

Give it a try and let us know what you think!

The other week Dr. Lindsay hosted a workshop for patients to talk all about posture. Patients learned all about ways they can set up their desk to alleviate chronic aches & pains, a deep dive into how poor posture can lead to long term health decline, & ways right now they can combat it!

Thank you to all those who came out to listen & engage in meaningful conversation.

Part 2 of the posture series is all about how sedentary activity causes pain & dysfunction.
😓

Our bodies are made to move. Without activity, even low grade, our bodies FEEL it. We may even develop those dreaded words: bone on bone, carpal tunnel, chronic headaches/migraines, etc.

Movement & exercise lubricate & hydrate joints, promote circulation, & strengthens muscles. All things that prolong degeneration or decrease chronic aches & pains.

In part 3, we’ll show you things to do at home to start feeling better!

Welcome to the posture series! We will tell you what the best posture is, how posture contributes to pain & dysfunction, & ways we can combat it.
🧘 Let’s set the record straight; there’s not 1 perfect posture. Sedentary activity is what we should pay attention to. Staying in one position for an extended period of time is the problem.
🖥️ Ways to get moving during your workday could include getting a standing/sitting desk, or if safe for you, a walking pad or desk bike. Or setting your workspace in the most ergonomic position.
🛋️ For after work hours, this could include using different furniture in ur house, sitting at the kitchen table to eat then laying in ur bed, & sitting on different couches & chairs. As well as taking evening or morning walks around the neighborhood.
🔑 The key takeaway is taking breaks during ur work day or after each episode you watch to get up & stretch or do some exercise.

Catch us in part 2 to talk more about posture can contribute to pain & dysfunction.

If your shoulder isn’t moving well, everything else will feel it.

The posterior shoulder & upper back play a huge role in control, stability, and force transfer—especially in overhead athletes.

Dry needling + e-stim can help:
• decrease unnecessary muscle tone
• improve neuromuscular coordination
• restore smoother, more efficient movement

This isn’t just about “tight muscles”—it’s about improving how your body communicates and controls motion.

Did you know rest & ice are no longer the standard for an ankle sprain? Movement & load are the protocol. Save these exercises for next time you roll your ankle!

Foot & ankle range of motion. Get that mid foot moving & those tiny foot muscles as well as the ankle muscles.

Banded eversion to your tolerance & range of motion. Do some reps with a hold on the last rep.

Eccentric calf raises. Focus on pushing the big toe into the floor. Raise up with two feet & slowly come down using just the injured foot.

Thank you to I-Koach Fitness for hosting our “Lift Through It” workshop.

We discussed the realities behind common shoulder, hip, and foot injuries, why pain doesn’t always mean damage, and how proper load management and progressive rehab can keep people training strong.

Our goal is simple: help active adults stay in the gym, not on the sidelines. We appreciate opportunities to share evidence-based strategies with the local fitness community.

If your gym or organization would benefit from an educational workshop, we’d love to connect.

Bored of your core exercises? Elevate your classics with these two variations of the dead bug & bird dog.

💀🐞Keep good tension on your band & increase the tension as you’re able. Make sure the rib cage doesn’t flare & your low back stays glued to the floor.

🦜🐶Make sure you push away from the floor with your shoulders & don’t let the shoulders sink. Keep the traps loose & relaxed. Be controlled & coordinated when moving your limbs. Think slow & controlled over fast & wobbly.
