This site posts excellent educational graphics about the spine. I hope the more my clients understand and visualize their back issues, the more they can protect their back from further pain and learn exercises that will be appropriate for their needs.

Every few months or so, I receive a free surprise item from a company that would like me to sell their products to my clients. It's usually something like a supplement or tea. Last week I may have received my most thoughtful - but unusual! But I don't know if I can "stomach it". Beef organ supplements and creatine bites with storage jars. I'll have to look into this because I'm curious. Anyone want to try it?

Yes I agree…. https://www.facebook.com/share/19eWXkNeiE/?mibextid=wwXIfr

In the health and fitness industry, we often become obsessed with the idea of correct movement. But movement isn’t inherently correct or incorrect, it’s only ever optimal within a specific context.

That context includes factors such as intensity, volume, load, joint angles, medical history, and individual anatomy.

All these elements determine whether a movement is appropriate, effective, or needs adjusting for the person in front of you.

So, when working with clients, rather than asking, “Is this movement correct?” or “Is this functional?” instead ask, “Is this movement serving this individual within their current context?”

If it’s not, you can change the movement or change the context.

Movement is medicine

Oh how I love this!! I do have a very faithful 88 year old client who sees me twice a week. He has strength many younger people would envy.

This video is a great explanation of accessing and building your abdominals correctly. This woman sounds like me and even uses some of the same terminology!

This is a good explanation/drawings of the importance of foot posture.

https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1205641101598557&set=a.547659627396711&type=3

Our feet share a special connection with our body, they connect us with the ground, and we should pay special attention to how our feet are behaving if we want to perform at our best and stay injury-free.

The arches of your feet are one of the most jam-packed and complex anatomical structures in your body and help with many things:

• They allow for fine-tuned movements of the foot and toes in order to achieve stability and balance.

• They act like a ‘core’ to help support the arch and hold it in place when weight-bearing. This helps maintain balance and control and prevents the foot from unwanted collapse.

• They help the foot become stiff and rigid to create propulsion when walking, running, jumping, etc. They also help the foot become mobile/adaptable when needed.

Now with a pronated foot (collapsing medially), your hip (ipsilaterally) side moves down and anteriorly.

With a supinated foot ⤴️(moving externally), your weight shifts laterally, and you will feel pressure on the outside of your feet.

This leads to mechnical imbalances that affect everything above your ankle joint.

Improving foot proprioception is the first step to addressing a foot imbalance.

Therapeutic insoles are a great way to address poor foot posture by hacking your nervous system.

This is how they work: 1️⃣ mechanoreceptor (skin)> 2️⃣ thalamus > 3️⃣ sensory cortex > 4️⃣ motor cortex (movement)

Since the motor cortex is what ultimately controls your muscles, working with a product that feeds it 24/7 results in FAST and permanent changes in poor foot and body posture.

I focus on the neck and back alignment a LOT in my Pilates teaching. I also suffer from neck pain from time to time myself so I wanted to share info on a pillow that I recommend. This coop pillow supports and aligns my neck with my spine - and I believe has helped to reduce my pain. It's also on sale right now. No I don't receive a commission. I just like the pillow because you can adjust it for your alignment needs by taking out the foam pellets inside until you achieve your ideal alignment.
