I’ve been seeing lots of knee injuries/pain in the office lately. Knee pain in athletes often comes from muscle imbalances—especially weak glutes and dominant quads—and can be relieved by targeted strengthening, stretching, and patellar tracking exercises to improve knee alignment and function.

Pain in the neck?

That “forward head” posture often tightens your SCM muscles (the front of your neck), which pulls everything forward and overworks your traps. 😣

Here is the “Quick Relief” routine from our latest blog post by Casey Navis to get you out of pain in a pinch:

🔥 Heat: Apply a heating pad for 20 mins. 🛌 Support: Lie down with a rolled-up towel under your neck. 🐢 Move: Do 30 seconds of chin tucks. 🎾 Release: Use a massage ball on your traps and the base of your skull.

Want to fix it for good? Focus on these 4 pillars: 1️⃣ Stretch: Target the SCM and do neck side bends. 2️⃣ Strengthen: Shoulder shrugs and rows to support the neck. 3️⃣ Posture: Practice scapular squeezes to fight the slouch. 4️⃣ Self-Massage: Foam roll those tight upper back muscles!

🌡️ BAROMETRIC PRESSURE 101

Hey there my sensitive little storm potatoes 👋 if you’re feeling cranky, achy, dizzy, foggy, or like you’ve been hit by the world’s slowest dump truck the last day or two, it might not be you… it might be the air pressure.

Here’s the deal: the atmosphere is basically a giant invisible blanket of weight pressing down on us. When that pressure drops quickly ahead of a storm system like it just did, your body notices. And for a lot of folks, that’s when the fun begins:

🤯 Migraines/headaches
🦵 Joint pain and arthritis flare-ups
🤧 Sinus pressure and congestion
😴 Fatigue and “weather hangovers”
⚖️ Mood dips, dizziness, or balance issues

🧠 FYI: anything over 0.20 inHg (~7 mb) in 24 hours is usually when the body starts throwing a tantrum.

💡 Tips to ride it out:

Hydrate like you’re prepping for a marathon.

Limit caffeine/alcohol (they’ll make symptoms worse).

Keep your routine steady, sleep, meals, movement.

And if you’re prone to migraines or sinus pain, consider pre-treating before the pressure bottoms out.

So next time your knees predict rain before I do, now you’ll know why 😆 This isn’t “in your head” it’s literally in the air.

This is a way I add value. Have been for years and will continue my commitment to awareness and education on how weather and changes in pressure impact our health.

K thanks bye 👋🏼

I’ve started to carry at the office - it’s the perfect after appt option to calm inflammation and help relax.

Happy Tuesday! This week I’m digging into Shoulder pain 💪
Shoulder pain in athletes often stems from prolonged poor posture—like sitting hunched at a desk—which tightens the pecs, rounds the shoulders, and misaligns the humeral head, causing joint pinching, swelling, and over time, damage to the labrum, rotator cuff, or even early arthritis. Relief starts with warmth (e.g., a 20‑minute heating pad), followed by passive stretching (like broom‑handle stretches) and light arm‑weight distractions (bent‑over arm circles). Long‑term recovery focuses on stretching the chest (doorway or chest‑opener stretches), strengthening the upper back (rows, face‑pulls, scapular retractions), shoulder mobility drills (arm circles, shoulder dislocations, thoracic rotations), and maintaining postural awareness to keep the spine neutral and chest open—helping correct muscle imbalances, restore range of motion, and prevent recurring shoulder issues.

Good morning! I’ve been working on a marker board-style outline of the stretches, mobility drills, and exercises I usually recommend for people heading out of the office — whether that’s for a trip, a hike, or just decompressing after a long day at the desk.
This set is especially helpful for low back pain and tight hips. The focus is on opening up the hip flexors and realigning your posture to get you back on top of your spine.
Here’s the general order I recommend.
A walk or sauna session gets your body ready and helps avoid injury. Then focus on your hip flexors, hamstrings, and low back with some light core work and glute activation. Finally use a lax ball to get more effective trigger point work. If you’ve got access to an inversion table
— use it!
