This week I had a patient who carried ALL OF HIS STRESS in his traps, neck, and shoulders.

He had constant neck and shoulder pain, headaches, and was told that going to the gym would help relieve stress, improve his posture, and ease his pain.

He figured rows would be perfect for that. But every time he did them, his neck and shoulder pain got worse. Now the thing that was supposed to help was only adding more stress.

A lot of people turn to the gym for stress relief, community, and consistency but end up frustrated when something starts hurting. I want you to stay in the gym, enjoy it, and feel confident that your training is helping you, not setting you back.

So, let me break it down in case you have this issue too! 👇👇👇

Here is the mistake I see all the time. Pulling from low to high, squeezing the shoulder blades up and back, and loading the traps and neck. This compresses the neck and adds torque to the shoulder.

Here is a fix I love to use! 👇👇👇

Use a rope so your hands can rotate, drop your elbows to bias the lats, and raise the cable anchor if possible. Let the shoulders elevate and stretch when the weight pulls you forward, then pull them down into your back pockets as you row. This shifts the work into the lats, takes pressure off the neck, and builds the strength you actually want for posture and healthy shoulder movement.

My goal is to help you train safely, stay consistent, and build real resilience so you can enjoy the gym again.

If you try this and it helps, let me know.

If you'd like help figuring out your own pain, training, or movement, send me a message. I would love to help you.

Ever feel like you just can’t be fixed?

You’ve followed every plan, done your homework, and still hurt.

You’ve gone from clinic to clinic and every time it’s the same thing: the same paper, the same exercises, the same results.

Maybe you’ve even started to feel like your provider secretly blames you for not getting better.

You didn’t fail rehab. Rehab failed you.

You don’t need another cookie-cutter plan.
You need a plan built around you, your body, your goals, and your history.

That’s what we do here. We rebuild strength, confidence, and control so you can actually live and train without fear again.

If you’re ready to finally get a plan tailored to your specific needs, DM me to set up a free call.

You’re not broken. You just haven’t had the right plan yet.

“I’ve tried everything and nothing worked!”
I hear that every single week.

They tell me, “Rest, ice, stretches all provided temporary relief. But, the pain came back, sometimes worse.”And now they feel more discouraged than ever.

Have you been there too?

You’ve done what you were told. You’ve been patient. Yet, you didn't get any relief?

The problem isn’t that you didn’t try hard enough. It’s that you were given the same plan as everybody else... not a plan customized to your body, your needs, and your goals.

At Strong Life Chiropractic, we don’t chase quick fixes or short term relief. We rebuild movement, strength, and confidence so you can not only trust your shoulder again, but do everything you want to do without being scared of pain or re-injurying yourself.

If you’re tired of starting over every few months, it’s time for something that actually lasts.

DM me SHOULDER and let’s rebuild it the right way.

Pain-Free Shoulders in 90s.

Tight chest, tight lats, cranky shoulders? 🥺

Try this combo 👇👇

1️⃣ Band + Ball Pec Smash — relax the pec, improve glide, and get your shoulder out of that forward, rounded spot.

2️⃣ Lat PNF Stretch — open the lat, engage the rhomboid, and let your shoulder blade move the way it should.

Mobility + strength = shoulders that feel open, pain-free, and stable under load.

Hip or groin pain that just won’t go away?

Stretching and resting might feel good for a bit, but they don’t rebuild what your hip actually needs: mobility, stability, and strength.

This is Step 1 of how we fix it.
👇👇👇
We start by calming the pain, rebuilding control, and teaching the adductors and hips to handle load again.

1️⃣ Isometrics to reactivate and strengthen the adductors in different positions.
2️⃣ Internal rotation holds to retrain deep hip stability.
3️⃣ Kneeling weight-shift glides to reintroduce movement and load tolerance.
4️⃣ Rock backs and adductor kick-outs to restore full range and end-range strength.

Once you can move without pain, we progress to Step 2. That’s where we start loading deeper ranges, adding resistance, and rebuilding full strength and confidence so you can get back to training, lifting, and living without limits.

At Strong Life Chiropractic & Performance, we use this same foundation and theory to create customized plans for each client’s unique movement patterns, goals, and needs. Nothing cookie cutter, just smart, individualized rehab that actually works.

This is how we help patients move from pain to performance.

📲 DM “HIP” if you’re ready to rebuild the right way.

Tendonitis isn’t random.
And it doesn’t magically heal with time off.

It happens when the load on a tendon doesn’t match what it’s prepared for — either:

• Too much intensity too fast
or
• Too much repetition without recovery

Rest, ice, and NSAIDs just turn the volume down on symptoms.
The moment you get back to training… the pain returns.

So instead of guessing or stopping, we use a targeted strategy:

✅ Slight reduction in intensity (not volume)
✅ Slow eccentrics to rebuild tendon capacity
✅ Technique work in that 80–90% skill zone
✅ Planned deloads or variation blocks
✅ Isometrics & pain-free ROM adjustments
✅ Low-intensity cardio to fuel healing

The cause is predictable.
The solution should be too.

Movement is medicine — and it’s non-negotiable if you want to stay strong, keep training, and actually fix the issue.

Struggling with tendon pain? DM “Tendon” and I’ll help you build the right plan for your specific sport and goals.
