Do you have back, pelvic, or sports related injuries/pain? Rehabilitative ultrasound imaging (RUSI) is a cutting-edge diagnostic tool that has revolutionized the treatment of back and pelvic pain!

The stabilizing muscles of your core play an important role in keeping your spine strong and protecting your back and pelvis. If your core stabilizers are not working properly, they can slow down your recovery from injury and cause chronic health problems, such as low back pain, sciatica, urinary incontinence, and pelvic instability.

RUSI instantly provides video images of your core muscles at work, allowing us to look deep beneath your skin to identify problem areas and provide the best treatment for you! By using RUSI, patients can be trained to appreciate their true core muscles and know whether they are accurately activating them.

Call to book an appointment today if you are interested in core training! 905-338-2898

ProActive Basics: The Shoulder Part 2! Yesterday we covered the anatomy of the shoulder. So what do you do if your shoulder joint is painful or stiff? Stiffness in the shoulder can make it difficult to drive your car, engage in exercise, or take part in any number of seemingly simple tasks. One common cause of pain in the shoulder is Adhesive Capsulitis, also known as Frozen Shoulder.

The bones, ligaments, and tendons that make up the shoulder joint are encased in a capsule of connective tissue. If this tissue thickens and tightens around the joint, it can restrict movement. Symptoms can come on gradually or you can just wake up with it.

Risk of experiencing frozen shoulder can increase if your mobility becomes restricted; those healing from a broken arm, who've experienced a stroke, or are recovering from surgery are all at heightened risk of developing this condition. The Good News: Frozen Shoulder is treatable! At ProActive we like to use hands on manual therapy, aimed at the shoulder joint and surrounding tissue, in order to help our patients feel their best and get back their full range of motion.

ProActive Basic: The Shoulder, Part 1!

Today we’re talking about the shoulder; made up of several bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, and nerves working together, it’s a joint whose function can have a massive impact on your day to day life and overall well being.

Using their understanding of anatomy and biomechanics, the proactive team can get to the root cause and help you recover. Pain or injury in the shoulder can be treated through physiotherapy and exercise. Keep an eye out for our next post on a common shoulder injury that we often treat here at the clinic!
