Want to take load off your low back when deadlifting?

Activate your glutes first.

Banded good mornings help:
✔️ Wake up the glute medius
✔️ Improve hip stability
✔️ Reduce lumbar compensation
✔️ Prep your body to lift heavy safely

Excite the hips — not the low back.

Comment “REHAB” if your low back takes over when you lift.

Shoulder pain when reaching overhead?
We don’t push through it — we modify.

This variation trains:
✔️ Serratus activation
✔️ Scapular control
✔️ Shoulder stability

Discomfort = muscles working.
Pain = adjust the movement.

Train smarter so your shoulders can handle real life — lifting, reaching, carrying.

What happens in your first rehab session?

Step 1: Initial consultation
We figure out what’s going on and whether we’re the right place to help you.

Step 2: Exam + treatment plan
Our team collaborates to create a personalized plan for your recovery.

Step 3: Functional evaluation
A thorough head-to-toe assessment to identify what’s weak, tight, or not moving well.

From there, every session focuses on correcting those specific issues so you can move better and feel better.

Workout of the Week: Bird Dog

Natalie, our newest team member, is showing one of our favorite exercises for core and spinal stability.

From a tabletop position:
• Extend one arm forward
• Extend the opposite leg back
• Keep a straight line from hand to foot
• Avoid arching your low back or hiking your hip

Hold for 20–30 seconds or perform controlled elbow-to-knee reps.

Simple move. Powerful for your core and spine.

Comment “CORE” if you want more exercises like this.

Trigger point injections = targeted relief.

✔️ Releases tight muscle bands
✔️ Improves blood flow
✔️ Reduces pain quickly
✔️ Makes rehab easier and more effective

A little poke.
A lot of relief.

Comment “REHAB” if tight muscles are holding you back.

ECS (electromagnetic stimulation) works by sending targeted signals through muscle pathways to:
✔️ Reduce tension
✔️ Improve circulation
✔️ Restore proper activation

We use it to reset the tissue before rehab — so your exercises actually work.

Workout of the Week! Squats done right =
🔥 Strong glutes

🔥 Better knee alignment

Small adjustments. Big difference.

Comment “WOW” if you want your form checked.

Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (aka “scraping”) helps reduce pain, improve blood flow, and speed up healing by breaking up restricted tissue so muscles can move and recover better.
