Restless leg syndrome can have a lot of different causes, but since the symptoms are coming from the nerves in the legs, mobilizing those nerves should always help at least a little bit. Next time you’re up at night tossing and turning these are worth a try. #physicaltherapy #restlesslegsyndrome

If you’re lacking hip internal rotation on one side you may be experiencing a pinching or pressure in the front of the hip everytime you bend at the hip. Try this test and mobilization to see if it helps! #physicaltherapy

If you can’t seem to stop rolling your ankle try these 3 things to start fighting back! Each time you sprain your ankle you become more likely to do it again, so start taking some steps in the right direction to nip it in the bud. #physicaltherapy #anklesprains

Do you walk with your feet turned out? The problem might be a lack of ankle dorsiflexion. #duckwalk #ankledorsiflexion #physicaltherapy #walkingform

The short foot exercise can be extremely tough to learn, but once you do the benefits are massive 💪🏻 #physicaltherapy

Patellar tendon (ligament) pain can be extremely painful and limiting. The good news is that integrating this exercise has been proven to make a significant impact on the pain and function of the knee. If you begin to do this exercise regularly in 4-6 weeks, research shows that you should notice a huge difference in your symptoms. #physicaltherapy #kneepain

If you have continued tightness in your hip flexor and you feel like you’ve tried everything. This may be the key to solving that hip flexor tightness 💪🏻 #physicaltherapy

There are 2 different kinds of shin splints and they have to be treated differently. Go watch Audrey’s full video for her breakdown on what she is doing in her case. In my experience, posterior shin splints can be much harder to treat and can have a longer timetable than anterior shin splints. #physicaltherapy #runnerthings

A single leg heel raise is a great overall test of not only the plantar flexors but your ability to balance and overall stability on one leg versus the other. If you’re active you should shoot for at least the average and should hopefully surpass it. The table was taken from a study done by Herbert-Losier et al in 2017. The only difference was they had their subjects to the heel raises on a 10° incline. Let me know what you got in the comments! #physicaltherapy #runnerthings

This is a great example of how we need to keep our goal in mind to figure out how to deal with this kind of situation. The goal for Ann was peace and a stress-free life with as much joy as possible. Telling her the truth was causing her stress, grief, and pain. That’s not the goal. Once the script was changed, we ensured her peace again. You don’t have to lie, but sometimes you might. You just have to figure out… is it worth it? #dementia #alzheimers #lewybodydementia #vasculardementia #frontotemporaldementia #caregiver #dementiaawareness #speechtherapy #slp #speechlanguagepathologist #occupationaltherapy #ot #cota #physicaltherapy #pt #pta

X-rays and MRIs are practically useless when they aren’t also paired with a very thorough hands-on evaluation. Pain is so much more than an image and a 5 minute conversation. Before making any big decisions about your body, please get a real exam first. #physicaltherapy #greenscreenvideo #greenscreen

If you feel like you’ve seen this circuit on my page before it’s because you have! I try to post this about every 3 months since it always gets seen by new people and so many people have found it helpful. (Also I send this circuit to a lot of my patients and when it’s been a while it gets harder to find so this is my way of bumping it back up to the top of the timeline) #physicaltherapy #baseballlife #shoulderworkout

Patellar tendonitis, also known as jumper's knee, is a condition characterized by pain and inflammation in the patellar tendon, which connects the kneecap (patella) to the shinbone (tibia). It typically occurs due to repetitive stress or overuse of the knee joint. The patellar tendon plays a crucial role in straightening the leg and absorbing forces during activities like jumping, running, or kicking. When this tendon is subjected to excessive stress, tiny tears can develop, leading to inflammation and pain. Common symptoms of patellar tendonitis include pain and tenderness around the lower part of the kneecap, especially during activities that involve bending or straightening the knee. The pain may worsen with jumping, squatting, or climbing stairs. Swelling and stiffness in the knee may also be present. Several factors can contribute to the development of patellar tendonitis, such as repetitive jumping or running activities, inadequate warm-up or stretching, sudden increases in training intensity, poor biomechanics or technique, muscle imbalances, and tightness in the quadriceps or hamstrings. To manage patellar tendonitis, a combination of conservative treatments is typically recommended. These include rest, avoiding activities that aggravate the pain, applying ice to reduce inflammation, and using nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for pain relief. Physical therapy exercises, such as stretching and strengthening the muscles around the knee, can help improve flexibility and reduce strain on the tendon. Whether you are looking at Patellar Tendonitis or Osgood Schlatter or some other reason for knee pain a general approach is to massage and stretch the surrounding muscles and then get to work strengthening! These particular exercises will strengthen the quads in their shortened position (leg lifts) and lengthened position (knee-loaded squat). It's good to strengthen in various positions and to strengthen when the muscle is both lengthened and shortened. #knee #kneepain #kneepainrelief #exercise #physicaltherapy

Deep tissue massage is a blessing and a curse. My hamstrings, especially on the left side were sooo tight today. I’ve been increasing my running distance and as a result I’m learning I have to do more to warm up than just a brisk walk. Im going to be adding mobility exercises like squats, lunges, leg swings and high knees. This should help me lessen and maybe even prevent tight hamstrings in the future. Thanks runlab austin for helping me crush my goals and run safe in a bigger body. #Running #recovery #physicaltherapy #plussize #run #training

Anything unstable is craving stability and this is a great first step to introduce that in the neck. These exercises should be gentle with a focus on activating the musculature in the neck. #physicaltherapy

No two patients are the same and you can’t take anything for granted. Everyone deserves to be treated like an individual and deserves to be listened to. This is a case that worked out great but she was still in pain for a long time and was close to giving up. I keep this case in mind every time I see a seemingly easy case. #physicaltherapy

Patellar tendinitis/tendinosis also known as Jumper’s Knee and Runner’s Knee responds very well to quad isometric holds and it is heavily backed up in research. Here are some of my favorite variations you can do at home 💪🏻 #physicaltherapy #kneepain
