What is in a Shoe?

Hi,
Shoes,shoes, and shoes.
I love them, but when you need them to help you to hold your balance and retain your alignment, you need them to aid in your ability to stand on the surfaces of your feet.

Repetitive Motion Part 3

Hi,
I was talking to a young friend last night about her shoulder injury, and I was trying to explain the importance of using the whole body in every activity. Even the act of healing, takes the entire body finding balance. I call this postural interrogation and structural realignment. This means when your muscles are connect in a fluid(movement) train then and only then can they work effectively together.
This is especially true when an injury has occurred because healing to the muscles is both a movement action and a blood and waste removal dance that the body has to perform to achieve healing.

Repetitive Motion Part 2

Hey,
I'm back with the news on wrist, elbow and arm injuries in general....
Did you know that all muscle injuries caused by repetitive motion start in your large muscle groups which are the muscles of the abs and chest?
The reason for this is that all muscular movement has to start from the area of origin and then into the smaller more movable area such as the arm, wrist and hand.

Repetitive Motion

Hi, I'm back ranting about one of my favorite topics.....
Did you know that all actions performed by muscles are repetitive by the nature of repeating the action?
I like to think of muscles as a two year old kid who has discovered that they can leave their parents side and come back all on their own without anyone else help. The muscles that we use repetitively are that impatient kid who knows you can't do anything with them and you can't live without them.
So, take a moment and ask your self how long have I sat in this one spot, did I get up and move around recently or have I paid attention to the muscles that I'm hoping will still let me walk with them after I have restrain them for so long today.
An just like that two year old, the muscles are whining, " Can I have a glass of water" not because they want to stay up late but because they do want some TLC.
