POV: you just needed a tissue 🤧

Spoiler: it was not that simple.

We tried the single leg RDL tissue box challenge and the results were… humbling. Especially for the men in the room (you know who you are 👀).

Your balance is telling on you and I’m here for it 😂

Follow along every Monday for a new movement challenge — and maybe some unsolicited intel on what your body’s actually capable of.

I couldn’t keep hearing the same story from patient after patient, each being told for years that they’re “out of alignment,” that their hips are off, that something in their body is wrong. And I couldn’t keep watching how much that belief weighs on people… how it makes them feel broken, fragile, or like they constantly need to be fixed.

Because the truth is, your body isn’t meant to be perfectly symmetrical. Those small “imbalances” you’ve been told about are usually not the reason you’re in pain. What actually matters is how your body moves, how strong it is, and how well it can handle the demands you place on it.

You don’t need to be endlessly corrected. You need to be supported, strengthened, and built back up.

If you’ve ever been made to feel like your body is misaligned or fragile, let this be your reminder—you’re not broken. You’re just undertrained for what life (or your sport) is asking of you 🤍

Hey runners! If you start training your calves through a full range of motion, you’ll unlock a whole new level of strength. Muscles build more strength and resilience when they’re challenged through their full range.

Elevate your forefoot, move with control, and gradually add load. Train it this way and feel the difference in every run 🏃‍♀️💨

Not all imbalances are what they feel like. This runner came in with a self-diagnosis… but testing said otherwise.

That’s the difference between guessing and measuring.

With VALD force plates and dynamometry, we get real data to identify asymmetries, track progress, and make decisions based on what’s actually there.

A few months later:
✔️ imbalance corrected
✔️ +20% strength
✔️ still building through trail + road training

Runners who strength train are much less likely to get injured.

Don’t guess. Test it and then get stronger.

We switched things up this week… Monday Mobility ➡️ Monday Balance Challenge.

The rules are simple:
Balance on top of a yoga ball for 10 seconds.

This one took out everyone except the PT!

When something flares up, the last thing you want to hear is “we can get you in… in 3 weeks.”

That’s not how we do things here.

If you’re hurting, dealing with something new, or something just isn’t feeling right — we prioritize getting you seen quickly. Most people get scheduled within a few days, and in some cases even same day.

Because the sooner you address it, the faster you get back to moving, lifting, and living without thinking about it.

Call or text 805-697-2453
Or book a discovery call through the link in my bio to talk through what’s going on and make a plan. Let’s get you taken care of 🤝

If we’ve worked together and you’ve felt the difference, I’d be so grateful if you shared your experience in a Google review.

Your words do more than support my small business. They help someone else find real, effective, drug-free care when they need it most. They show that recovery is possible, that surgery isn’t always the answer, and that there’s a path forward to moving better and getting stronger.

From dealing with pain → to lifting heavier → to moving better → to regaining their Golden State.

As a thank you, everyone who leaves a review will be entered into a 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐀𝐭𝐡𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐞 𝐏𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐫𝐚𝐟𝐟𝐥𝐞:
$50 to Happy Place Eatery() + a Nutrishop gift card ()+ other local goodies

If you’ve been thinking about leaving one, this is your sign 🤍

You don’t have to be injured to come see us.

A lot of our clients are just working toward something — moving better, getting stronger, or improving performance in their sport.

That’s why we have a Peak Performance membership. It’s having a PT in your corner who knows your body, keeps you on track, and is there when something feels off (even if it’s just a quick text).

It’s less about fixing problems and more about staying ahead of them so you can keep doing what you love.

If that sounds like what you’ve been looking for, feel free to reach out at 805-697-2453 or book a discovery call through the link in the bio 💬

Monday mobility challenge!

Drop into your lowest squat, make a thumbs up fist on the ground, and see if you can tap your forehead to it. Sounds simple, but most people realize pretty quickly it’s not.

If you can’t get there, it doesn’t mean anything is wrong You probably just need a warm up and a little more time spent in these positions.

Mobility is something you build, not force.

Try it and let me know if you got it! 👇

Vacation isn’t about keeping up with a workout routine. For me, it’s about stepping away from one.

Owning a business and working as a physical therapist, most of my life is structured. I’m constantly thinking, planning, learning, and trying to be productive while also following a training program. In a world that pushes us to always be “on,” it’s easy to feel like slowing down means you’re falling behind.

On vacation, I let that go. I wake up without a plan, move based on how I feel, and give my brain a break from trying to optimize everything. I’m still active. I’m swimming, walking, being outside. It’s just intuitive instead of structured.

Research also shows that taking a short planned break from lifting doesn’t cause any real muscle loss. If anything, it helps long term by reducing built up fatigue, giving your nervous system a reset, and letting your body fully recover. Sometimes stepping away is what actually moves you forward.

But the mental break matters just as much. Time without a schedule, without pressure to be productive, without constantly thinking about what’s next. We already push hard enough the rest of the year.

If you’re on vacation, this is your permission slip to do the same. You’re not losing progress. Enjoy the vacation you worked hard to earn!

So yes, the only “formal workout” on my schedule this week is a few bicep curls by the pool 🍹And there’s no reason to feel guilty about that!

Most people think shoulder pain means you need an MRI, but that’s not how it works.

By age 40+, almost everyone has “abnormal” findings on imaging whether they have pain or not. That means your MRI might show a tear that isn’t actually the reason your shoulder hurts.

Your body isn’t broken. It’s adapting, aging, and often very capable of healing with the right plan.

Start with rehab, then decide if you need more.
