Every movement takes several muscles. This is just basic walking, forward and backward. This gets a little tricky when you are doing any rotation motion, any sideways motion, going up or down, or any quick motion.

Walking is a full body action. Your body LOVES the motion of walking, give it some love daily.

I treat at least a pair of glutes a day. Hip issues? Get your glutes worked on. Low back pain? Get your glutes stripped out.

This is IT.

This is home-care I give out to almost daily, and the way this person does the audio and visual is perfect.

You need to start somewhere. An increase of 1 to 2° of Range of Motion could take someone a few weeks and up to few months!! Keep in mind, it won’t be one muscle you’re strengthening; there are always several muscles that need to be engaged for just ONE action!

Movement is the key to youth. Do something over nothing, if only for 2-3 minutes! Change the message your body is getting by doing something different than what your daily posture is. 💪🏼👣

Movement is like the Fountain of Youth. Your muscles LOVE movement. You can join a group class, you can go it alone. You can go to a gym, you can do it in your living room. Movement is key!

Movement doesn’t have to be perfect to be powerful.

Too often, we focus on correcting every asymmetry, every imbalance, and every “flaw” in movement and miss the bigger picture.

Most people aren’t limited by poor mechanics.

They’re limited by inactivity.

Chronic disease, pain, and poor health outcomes are far more tied to sedentary behavior than to imperfect form.

Our job as rehab and fitness professionals isn’t to chase perfection.

It’s to make movement more accessible, less intimidating, and more consistent.

Because a world where more people move (even "imperfectly") is a healthier one.

Give yourself an hour, or, hour and a half.
Disconnect, unwind, breathe, reset. 🫶🏼

Don’t skip this step…

I can help with this!

Numbness in your arm running from your shoulder down to your hands? 🤔

You could be dealing with Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS) — a condition caused by compression of the nerves or blood vessels that pass between your collarbone and first rib. This compression can lead to numbness, tingling, weakness, coldness, or even swelling in the affected arm or hand.

TOS can be triggered by poor posture (especially forward head and rounded shoulders), repetitive overhead activities, carrying heavy bags, or even old injuries around the neck or shoulder. It’s common among people who sit long hours at a desk, athletes who do repetitive motions, and individuals with tight neck and chest muscles.

Treatment focuses on improving posture, releasing muscle tension, and restoring proper alignment of the shoulder and rib cage. Gentle stretching, nerve glides, and strengthening the postural muscles can help open up the space in the thoracic outlet and relieve pressure on the nerves and vessels.

💡 Tip: If your arm feels heavy or goes numb when lifting it overhead or during sleep, it’s time to pay attention — early management can prevent chronic nerve irritation and improve your daily function.
