Cupping is an ancient Chinese medical technique that uses suction to help pull away the superificial layers of the skin from the underlying muscle tissues in focal areas. Its use is often around the neck, shoulder and back areas where a lot of myofascial (muscle - supporting tissue) adhesions or scar tissue can develop due to chronic tension or muscle activation. Take a read of this blog that one of our Registered Massage Therapists, Laura Caldwell wrote, to learn more about this technique, and why you might want to consider one of our team members perform this as part of your treatment plan as we reactivate you.

Bryan Lynd is, in our opinion, the whole package when it comes to providing physiotherapy to our clients and our active community . He has the outstanding ability to see the body as a sum of its parts; a collaboration of mobile segments that work together to move the body through our world and in our patients lives. Being able to see the whole picture allows him to see where things are going wrong and how to help clients resolve them with a targeted movement based rehab pr...ogram.

When you consider typical day to day habits or gym routines, thoracic rotation is commonly missed or ignored. Tightness through this area of the back has been linked to pain in the neck, shoulder, and lower back, as well as, an increased effort in breathing (which can makes singing a lot more difficult too). When we breathe our ribs must open up and expand, this becomes restricted when our thoracic spine gets tight. Poor or prolonged postures such as desk sitting also si...gnificantly contribute to this tightness or stiffness. Optimising thoracic rotation can help to open up the chest, improving breathing and reducing tightness and pain in surrounding joints (i.e. neck and shoulders). Strength is also an important factor to address in thoracic spine, however, here are a few simple mobility exercises to get you started.

Some days it just awesome to step out of the front door and look back at the front entrance of the amazing clinic and the incredible team of rehab specialists that we have built at Reactivate and you are speechless. Today was another one of those days. Yesterday too. And probably tomorrow. Thank you to all of our clients and our community for helping us become a trusted clinic to help you get back to enjoying everything that #muskoka and life has to offer.

We are so proud to have partnered with Muskoka Seniors to help our community stay active and healthy, and live life to its fullest.

We see so many people come to Reactivate who have hurt the back or their shoulders from shovelling heavy snow. However, if you took 60 seconds to do this quick warm up before you get out there, you will lower your risk of injury, and keep enjoying winter for all of its glory Downtown Huntsville BIA District Municipality of Muskoka Lake Vernon Association Fairy Lake AssociationHuntsville/Lake of Bays Chamber of Commerce

We are super excited to collaborate with Muskoka Seniors to help educate, empower, and reactivate seniors in our region. Here is the first post out of a series that we will be doing, as well as interactive QnA sessions on Zoom. Please take a read and share it with someone that you think would enjoy reading about osteoarthritis. Future topics will include non surgical treatment options, strength and conditioning, things to consider when joint replacement is being discussed, along with many other topics pertaining to seniors.

Treating this winter chore as exercise and give it the respect it deserves. As a physiotherapist, I see a variety of injuries each year related to snow shovelling. Most commonly I see lower back strains and shoulder injuries. To help prevent you from needing to see me for a snow shovelling related injury, take a read through some sage advice to help you lift strong, healthy and injury-free.

Functional Movement Friday @thebtpt is working with a patient to functionally restore scapular control in order to decompress impingement of the superior rotator cuff structures. Learning to engage the lower trapezius, lats, and other inferior (downward) stabilizers fo the scapula through a progressive active exercise based rehabilitation will provide lasting results rather than taping, laser, ultrasound and other quick and passive fixes. #fixitrightthefirsttime ... Sports Medicine Physicians, like @richdrmskka and @pierre.mikhail, can help to more accurately diagnose shoulder issues with enhanced functional physical exam skills, and imaging when required (it isn’t always required for shoulder issues). Then our incredibly skilled rehab team will help your body, your machine, to work again ... efficiently. More powerfully. More collaboratively as one unit. #physiotherapy #muskoka #huntsvilleontario #bracebridge #movementismedicine #shouldermobility #chiropractor #massagetherapy #believeinbetter #letusreactivateyou

The squat is a relatively easy movement to do. Or is it? Watch how Mark Lewis, one of our massage therapist and personal trainers at Reactivate, goes through the squat, common compensations and errors that can lead to malalignment and injuries over time.
