Had one of my fellow teammates come in to get worked on. After surgery, things can get really stiff. Really all depends on the type of care you get afterwards. Clearly, in this case, too much time in a sling, exercises that didn’t help him improve much over time…etc. We were able to do more in one session, than he got from 10 weeks of PT. It’s not that the PT’s are bad, just the system they follow. We addressed things all around the area first, watched him move, made sure the right muscles were firing and letting the compensatory muscles calm down. Then, some scars that didn’t glide, gave him some movements he could do, with proper awareness and he saw so much improvement after an hour. It’s not rocket science, just listening to him, his body, meeting him where he’s at and slowly working from there. Next time we meet, we’ll see if we can challenge him further. Progress shouldn’t take weeks on weeks. That’s just ridiculous!
