April 2021 Book of the Month is “A World of Hurt: A Guide to Classifying Pain” by Annie O’Conner & Melissa Kolski
This book connects the dots between the brain and pain! This book is full of deep dives of how the central nervous system interprets signals from the peripheral nervous system.
Highly recommended for anyone interested in better understanding how the brain interprets (or misinterprets**) the signals from the rest of the nervous system as pain 🤕

Every body is different and there is no such thing as a singular solution that fixes everyone’s (insert body part here) pain.

Health care should be problem solving WITH a patient, not FOR a patient.

And that is exactly how treatment happens at IN State Spine and Joint.

Treatment is a TEAM EFFORT 🙌🙌

The DEEP SQUAT is a great assessment tool that is not often used when looking at joint health of the legs and low back.

It is an easy way to determine if someone has mobility issues that need to be addressed.

Steps:
1 - Can you get into the position? (feet flat on the floor)
2 - How long can you hold the position for?

If you cannot get into the DEEP SQUAT position, then you likely need to work on improving ankle/hip/low back mobility.

If you cannot stay in the position for more than 2 minutes, then you likely have some stability issues that need addressed.
