We hear people say this all the time! Ya but, no pain, no gain. Right? WRONG. Especially when it comes to rehabilitating an injury, we usually do NOT want to push through SHARP pain. Pain is often a warning that we are asking the body to do something that it is not able or ready to do. However, pain is not as black and white as this. For example, a delayed onset of muscle soreness (DOMS) following an intensive work out is usually not unhealthy. Or, sometimes when asking a... previously fractured and immobilized limb to move again, definite feelings of discomfort can arise, and this is to be expected. BUT, sharp, intense pain should be avoided almost always. Due to the complex nature of pain itself, it is best to consult a physiotherapist if you are experiencing pain and are unsure if it is safe to continue functioning in your current capacity. We can help determine the reason for your pain and then help guide you so that you push your body if/when it is safe to do so. #notnopainnogain #pain #paineducation #pediatricsportmedicine #pediatricsportdoctor #pediatricphysio #sportsphysicaltherapy #sportsphysio #sportsrehab #yegphysiotherapy #yegphysiotherapy #yegphysio #edmontonphysicaltherapy

Believe it or not, shoulder pain is one of the most common complaints we hear patients report. Often, general shoulder pain can be generated from less than optimal postural positions. Overhead athletes and professions also tend to see more shoulder injuries; however, the bulk of the shoulder ailments we see are actually from placing the shoulder in repeatedly poor posture positions. But what is good posture? How can one fix their posture? That’s what we are here for! We ...will complete a comprehensive assessment to help identify areas that may place your shoulder(s) at a bio mechanical disadvantage. Once identifying these areas that could benefit from improvement, we will develop an exercise program tailored specifically to your needs. With the proper education and exercise program, many patients quickly notice an improvement in their symptoms! #shoulderpain #goodposture #poorposture #shoulderinjury #shoulderrehab #shoulderphysiotherapy #shoulderphysicaltherapy #yegphysiotherapy #yegphysio #edmontonphysicaltherapy #edmontonphysio #edmontonbusiness #edmontonsmallbusiness

Do you experience knee pain and yet feel as though there was never a specific incident that would have caused an injury? Though there are many possible reasons for knee pain, one of the most common culprits we see is due to muscular imbalance. Simply put, often certain muscles surrounding the knee are weak and underused while others may be tight and overused. This can cause less than optimal mechanics for the knee, thus causing pain. We can identify what is causing your pain and set you up with a plan to help correct your knee functioning!

Shovelling can be seriously tough on our backs! Here are a few basic tips to keep in mind while shovelling to help prevent a back injury: Avoid waiting until the very end of a major snowfall to shovel. Though more tedious, your back will thank you if you go out multiple times instead of trying to lift a mountain of snow! Do not twist through your back while lifting the snow. Move your feet when changing direction! Lift using your legs.... Try holding the handle of the shovel a little further down, as this will place less torque on your back. Try to brace your core (keep your tummy muscles tight) when lifting the snow. Go slow and take frequent breaks! It is not a race. Remember, a tired body is at higher risk for injury! Have any questions?

Though not an official term, text neck refers to neck pain that originates from the less than optimal position that excessive cell phone or tablet use often places the neck in. This position is characterized by a head forward and down posture. Spending extending periods of time in such a position can be very hard on the structures of the neck. How can one avoid developing such symptoms when our world seems to demand us to use our cell phones or tablets for a significant am...ount of time? Here are a few tips: Try to hold the device at eye level as opposed to below eye level. Keeping the arms in a supported position is helpful. Avoid allowing your shoulders to creep upward towards your ears. Take breaks often. Try to avoid spending extending periods of time using the device without changing your head and neck position. Setting an alarm to remind you to periodically change positions is useful. If you are experiencing neck symptoms for whatever reason, our experienced Physiotherapists can help reduce your pain and provide you with further tools to prevent the problem from reoccurring! #textneck #neckpain #neckinjury #posture #yegphysiotherapy #edmontonphysicaltherapy #yegphysio #edmontonphysicians #edmontonsmallbusiness
