💥 Pudendal Nerve Entrapment

My new client came to me complaining of shooting, electrical pain in her pelvic area, and also pain on the front left hip. She can't access the area of pain or replicate it. Triggers are excessive sitting and standing. Based on her symptoms, I asked her if she had been treated for Pudendal Nerve Entrapment or Pelvic Floor issues. She said she had tried, and that she has been to many doctors and practitioners who have told her there is nothing she could do except medication.

Using Level 3 NeuroKinetic Therapy (NKT) protocol we found a dysfunction in her Pelvic ligaments that were causing the pelvic pain and compressing the Pudendal Nerve.
**Her Sacrotuberous and Sacrospinous Ligaments were in a dysfunctional relationship affecting her deep six external rotators.
**We down-regulated her Sacrotuberous, stimulated her medial Sacrospinous and then activated her deep six.
⭐️ This will be her homework to finally provide her some relief!

We also found an overworking Pelvic Floor for a dysfunctional left Psoas.
**We released the PF and activated the Psoas

❤️ My client has been in pain for so long and has completely lost hope for recovery and feeling normal again. She left her first session excited and encouraged!

I have a client who has consistently seen me every 2 weeks for the last 6 weeks; he has had 4 sessions to address years of chronic back pain. He also has hip pain and pain in his quad with hip flexion.

His main reason for the first visit was chronic low back pain, and if you have ever suffered from any type of chronic pain, you know it can become consuming, exhausting, and overwhelming.

After his first session, NKT (NeuroKinetic Therapy) testing revealed an issue with his Intrinsic Core, specifically how his diaphragm and breathing patterns were affecting his hips and causing back pain. After 2 weeks of homework, he saw a 30% improvement 😃

After his second appt, more findings, and 2 more weeks of homework, he was encouraged and felt even better. He was pleased with his progress and the trajectory of his recovery✅

After unraveling a little more and his 3rd appointment, he was feeling as good as he could remember feeling in years and even had some pain-free moments during his day🙏🏼

I see clients like this one that stick to the protocol and continue to improve, which is the ultimate goal of NKT. It is not a strength training-based recovery; it is a neurological one addressing how the brain organizes movement. Each client's exercise program is unique and based on what we find when testing. If there are years and layers of dysfunction, it can take time to unwind!

While NKT can provide immediate relief, the permanent recovery and the true magic of the practice is not only in the practitioner's hands but also the client's; it is a team effort!

Seeing success and results for years of chronic pain after just a few weeks of consistency is inspiring.

💥Painful S*x & The Pelvic Floor

Recently, I have seen two new clients who were complaining about painful s*x. Dysfunctions of the pelvic floor and intrinsic core can contribute to this. The most common things I see are pelvic floor to pelvic floor (PF), scar to pelvic floor, and intrinsic core to pelvic floor.

Both of these women are seeing Pelvic Floor Specialists. Their treatments have been consisting of internal releases and kegel activations, but they both still have pain during s*x.

One of my clients could specify exactly where she was feeling her sharp pain, so we started testing. We found her abdominal scars neurologically overactive for the posterior quadrants of the PF and the R Anterior quadrant of her PF overworking for the posterior quadrants.
**We did some myofascial releasing of the scar and a manual release on the RA PF and then activated the posterior quadrants of her PF.
❤️ After 1 week of homework replicating the above, she was pain-free for the first time in over a year!

My second client was experiencing an overall achiness that lasted during and after s*x. We found her entire PF and her diaphragm facilitated for her multifidus. We released the diaphragm and then the PF and activated her multifidus.
❤️ After 2 days of hw, she felt a huge improvement, and most of the achiness was already gone.

**It is worth noting that both treatments are external and non-invasive.
I love sharing these stories and successes! You don't have to live with pain, and being able to get specific and identify the root cause is the solution.

Posted • How the brain affects movement and motor control has been studied since the 1800s. NKT recognizes that under normal circumstances we are meant to move in an efficient way but poor posture, injuries, repetitive stress, etc change all of that. Then the brain develops dysfunctional patterns that need to be changed before proper movement is restored. That's what NKT does. This article details the role of the brain in movement.

Scars & their tremendous impact on Motor Control

A new client came in complaining of debilitating neck pain. There was no new injury, just the onset of a lot of pain. She said she really felt it at her computer and had also been under an enormous amount of stress. She had a really hard time turning her head both left and right, with the right being much worse.

Upon taking her history, she had 2 scars from a spinal fusion. They were on each side of her spine (T-12- L-4/5). ⚡️Scars become neurologically overactive since the fascia is the powerhouse of Motor Control. When you cut fascia, you distort how the brain organizes movement and dysfunction is born.

The scars were neurologically overactive for both her R & L Psoas AND her R & L Quadratus Lumborum
*Her Scalenes, Upper Traps and Levator were all bracing for her Psoas and QL and Lats
*She also had some cervical compression causing tingling in her fingertips.

💥Her scar and her neck were working together to stabilize her core.

When she left, the range of motion she had turning her head greatly improved but the majority of the session was spent on a myofascial release of the scar and not on the neck!

Her homework for now is to release the right side of the scar and activate her R Psoas and then to spend some time releasing the neck/upper traps as well. This will be layered but she is off to a great start!

😇 My parents are in town for my twins' graduation and I had the pleasure of helping my mom with her left shoulder. It was a proximal break and considering she broke it only 4 months ago, she is in no pain and doing remarkably well. She has been diligent with her physical therapy and rehabilitation but asked me to take a look. She was told that she was 100% in her overhead range of motion but some simple ROM tests and NeuroKinetic testing revealed otherwise.
*She had no external rotation and felt pain when we were trying this ROM
*In order to raise her arm over her head, she had to shrug her shoulder (Upper Trap)- this is where they told her she was 100%

🔺Her Upper Trap was overworking for her Lower Trap (these 2 muscles work together to raise the arms up over the head). The Upper Trap was also overworking for her Lat ➡️ One of the exercises they gave her to do for PT was Lat pulldowns- this aggravated her low back. I explained that since her Lat wasn't working that is what caused the pain. **No more Lat pulldowns as a part of her recovery right now.

🔺The pesky pec minor was overworking for her middle trap (functional opposites) and the serratus anterior (synergists)

🔺We also found her subscapularis (internal rotation) overworking for her posterior deltoid (which helps stabilize the shoulder)

👉🏽Once we released and activated these in pairs, she was amazed at the results we got. Her quote on her FB post that she shared about our session was "After having a corrective movement session with her, I am sold on neurokinetic therapy."
My mom left with 30-35% more mobility with external rotation and a new set of homework that will truly help rehab her shoulder and create a permanent change.
