3D Movement and Rehab

3D Movement and Rehab Providing mobile concierge Physical Therapy in your home, office or sports arena in Lynchburg, VA. Injuries from sporting activities are devastating.

We provide mobile physical Therapy for Lynchburg and Bedford, VA. They can leave us frustrated with not being able to still participate in our favorite sport. They cause shame as injuries result in us no longer being able to participate in activities with our kids, family and friends. Often times people will deny their injury and push through it but it only gets worse and becomes even more debilitating. I go to where ever my clients are; their home, office, or court/field to empower them to take back control of their injury. By providing an effective and specific rehab program, our clients can quickly return to the joy of playing their sport and with their kids. I help them find ways to feel fit and fulfilled with an alternative exercise routine while they are injured so they can maintain their happiness and sanity in the meantime. I help active adults continue to be happy active adults again.

This is part 2 of our swim free injury prevention program for swimmers.

Part 2 focuses on improving lower body flexibility to improve the streamlined position and flip turn positions in particular to make our athletes more efficient during their swim stroke and more powerful coming off the wall during their turn.

The first stretch is a calf stretch that we recommend performing for 30 seconds with side to side hip wiggles to make sure all aspects of the calf are addressed. This helps swimmers with their on-ground training to perform better deeper squats so they can better translate that on ground squat training to the pool.

The next stretch is called the bretzel which focuses on improving hip/glute, rectus femoris, and thoracic spine mobility to decrease foot, drag and improve a swimmer's ability to reach and get a bigger pull.

The next stretch is a partnered stretch for full depth squatting that's performed with a 3D hip shift to help swimmers get deeper into their tuck for their flip turn which will allow them to turn faster and push more explosively off the wall following their flip turn.

The last stretch of our lower body focused mobility for swimmers is an exaggerated lunge with posterior overhead reach. This further helps decrease foot drag by improving hip extension and extension of the whole spine.

This is part one of five of our Swim Free Injury Prevention Series.

We've been fortunate to treat a lot of swimmers in Lynchburg and during this time we've noticed several patterns with the injuries that they typically face. We often treat swimmers for shoulder, neck and back pain which largely have preventable causes. This led us to create our swim free injury prevention program that requires no equipment.

In part 1 we demonstrate 2 of our favorite stretches to improve the latissimus dorsi flexibility and pectoral muscle flexibility.

We are very excited to be implementing this with the team and look forward to helping them have a healthy swim season.

What makes 3D Movement and Rehab different?

We are not shackled by the restraints of insurance companies. This means when we see our patients we can treat them how ever they need to be treated to get the results they want. When our patients arrive with (or without) a prescription for a particular injury we obviously treat that injury but we're also going to assess the rest of their entire body to find all of the root causes to make sure we deliver the results the want and stay healthy. This treatment approach has led us to specialize in treating patients with more complicated injuries who have not had success elsewhere.

Big thanks to Electronic Design and Manufacturing for asking us to give a talk on work ergonomics, posture, and flexibility. We always love having the opportunity to teach people how to decrease back and neck pain by treating themselves with a whole body approach.

Headaches are often a dysfunction that requires a full body approach. Yes we treat the neck and jaw but oftentimes the excessive strain comes from other parts of the body like the shoulders, abdominals, hip flexors and even the ankles.

If you're struggling with an injury that's not getting better reach out to us, it's likely the root cause isn't being treated.

A major difference from 3D Movement and Rehab and other healthcare providers in Lynchburg, Virginia is that we take time to listen to our patients’ full story so we can find those potential unknown causes for their injury and find what’s slowing down their progress. Most healthcare providers are overworked and have to see high volumes of patients resulting in minimal time to listen to their patients. This results in them only being able to focus on what’s bothering them right now. But we take our time to go deeper into our patients’ history. This results in us taking into account injuries from 20 years ago and how an old ankle injury from high school soccer could be affecting someone’s golf swing in their 60’s. By listening to our patients full story we uncover hidden causes to their injuries to make sure when we treat them we are not just treating the symptoms but the root causes of their injury.

3D Movement and Rehab often uses cupping therapy as part of our holistic approach to helping our clients improve pain and mobility.

Cupping therapy involves a placing suction cups on the skin to create a negative pressure that lifts and separates the tissue layers: skin, fat, fascia, and muscle. This enhances blood flow, promotes lymphatic mobility and facilitates a reduction of fascial densification. Fascial densification is a key benefit of cupping therapy by increasing space between tissue layers. It enhances fascial glide and remodels scar tissue which is essential for normal muscle function and flexibility.

By reducing friction between the fascial layers, cupping allows for smoother movement of muscles, particularly in areas where fascial restrictions are common such as the shoulders, back, knees and hips.

Modern cupping, known as myofascial decompression, combines movement and negative pressure to maximize therapeutic benefits; this approach involves exercising while the cups are applied. The combination of negative pressure and movement enhances the mechanical and neurophysiological effects of cupping promoting greater tissue elasticity and facilitating the release of fascial adhesions. This technique is particularly effective in addressing chronic movement restrictions and mobility issues resulting from long-term standing fascial restrictions.

Another potentially powerful benefit of cupping that is being researched is how it can improve flexibility similar or greater than that of massage and static stretching without a subsequent decrease in power/strength that these other modalities often result in (Murray and Clarkson, 2019).

It can be very difficult to restore ankle motion and strength after ankle sprains and reconstructive surgeries. 4 way ankle theraband exercises and calf stretching isn't enough. Eli came to us after 6 months of traditional rehab still lacking 50% or more of his ankle motion in all directions and couldn't get into his cuts for football. We got rid of the therabands, made his ankle rehab functional and started mobilizing his ankle on the ground. After one session he was 25% limited and by the third session we had restored 90% of his motion getting him back to sprinting and cutting pain free.

had a great experience leading a workshop with and . We had a great time exchanging ideas and discussing functional treatment progressions and analysis with our 3DMAPS education from .

We also got into some in-depth treatment strategies for scoliosis and posture correction that can be pivotal to helping patients with low back pain and improve pelvic floor related dysfunctions.

The FemPT is a great group of women physical therapists and healthcare providers that help women throughout the whole pre and post-partum recovery. We cannot recommend them enough.
