Wednesday Q&A: Flexibility, Tone vs. Muscle Length & Proximal Hamstring Tendinothopy Jun 29, 2022

Show notes

Welcome to Wednesday Q&A, where you ask questions and we answer them!

In this Wednesday Q&A, we answer your questions about the difference between inflexibility due to the nervous system or actual range of motion and proximal hamstring tendinopathy.

Your questions:

Can you talk about flexibility of tissues based on the nervous system versus actual range of motion?
For 18 months I’ve been feeling pain in the medial part of the back of my upper thigh, just under the sit bone and a sensation that is hard to place in a deep medial part of my left buttock. Yoga seems to agitate my pain.

Moving Through Trauma by Being More Embodied with Alyssa Kuzins Jun 17, 2022

Show notes

Alyssa Kuzins is truly a healer. She experienced severe emotional trauma when her husband got into a cycling accident and was put in a coma for 64 days. She found healing through intuitive dance and has learned how to find the connection between body and mind, which she now teaches both on retreats and online. We talk about her journey from being struck with grief at that moment and how the repercussions of that event carried on throughout her life. This conversation is so powerful for anyone who has experienced trauma, major or minor, in their lives.

Wednesday Q&A: Walking Posture, Popping Knees & Hip Pain Jun 15, 2022

Show notes

Welcome to Wednesday Q&A, where you ask questions and we answer them!

In this Wednesday Q&A, we answer your questions about walking on the balls of feet, popping knees, and dealing with severe sciatic pain.

Your questions:

My friends’ son walks on the balls of his feet more often than not. Other people in his family do the same. Is this hereditary? What is going on, why, and what can be done?
My knees pop on a daily basis, several times a day. They pop constantly throughout the day and I feel the tendency to pop them, not out of habit, but because I feel the need to, almost as if there’s air pockets in there.
My mom is over 60 but still a fit woman. She loves going for long walks, gardening, cruising on her e-bike, and hiking. She used to work a desk job half time and is now sitting in front of her laptop at home. She’s suffering from a lot of pain, in her right hip and left side, an eight out of ten.

In this Wednesday Q&A, we answer your questions about healing after a motorcycle accident, our thoughts on craniosacral therapy, and overcoming post-stroke fatigue.

Your questions:

My friend had a motorcycle accident and “only” broke his arm, but since then the ulna is not growing back together. His doctor plans to place an insert by sawing out a piece of the hipbone.

What are your thoughts on craniosacral therapy for neck and back pain?
Does post-stroke fatigue ever go away and is there anything that can be done to help it?
