Today, I’m going to share with you a truly transformational growth formula for putting the afterburners on your business. Chances are, you’re probably struggling in your business in some way. That problem may not be patient volume; it may be that you have no free time to do the things you want to do. Maybe if you go on vacation, you lose income. I used to be there too. Here’s what you need to do to encourage growth! Ask yourself these questions: Where are you right now? How much revenue do you have? How much do you need? Do you have the amount of patients you'd like? What marketing strategies are working? What’s not working? How much time do you have with your family? How much do you want? Are you able to work out daily? Do you have free time? Where do you want to go? Sometimes, it’s hard to know the answers to these by yourself. There have certainly been times when I’ve helped my Mastermind students see things that were right in front of them. We all do this. ...

This Friday is all about sleep. Here are 5 tips recommended to promote improved sleep for the general public. Reposted with permission from Dr. Cam Faller's instagram Sleep Hygiene by Cameron Faller . 👉 LIMIT STIMULANTS - Caffeine, alcohol, and nicotine all have been known to promote arousal and/or disrupt sleep.  Finding out an individual's sensitivity or tolerance and either limiting a certain amount of time before bed or weaning off (i.e. nicotine) has been shown to promote improved sleep. . 👉 EXERCISE REGULARLY - This has been presumed knowledge with the caveat that you shouldn't exercise before bed but the evidence states that's not completely true. Promoting good wakeful habits of regular exercise has been shown to improve sleep quality and for some individual's exercising before bed can actually promote acute-body heating and have an antidepressant effect. . 👉REDUCE STRESS - Stress can precipitate both cognitive and physiological arousal whic...

I was listening to a podcast recently where the “expert” was basically telling the listeners to stop trying because they weren’t ready and were "too green." Today, I wanted to share how I feel about that. People tell new-grad physical therapists all the time that they don’t have enough experience. They get told that they can’t start their own practice because there won’t be a clinical mentor in the room, as if they are dangerous. Hell, new grads will be told they can’t start their own business, even if they have prior business experience! You have everything you need to be successful with you right here, right now. You are not "too green." If you’re only hearing doubt, get those people out of your life. Surround yourself with people who support you and tell you that success is just around the corner... because it is. Speaking of surrounding yourself with supporters, have you joined The CashPT Nation yet? Learn more online - new online discussion gr...

Reconcepiualizing Pain Related Fear by Cameron Faller Many individuals with pain will become fearful of movement, or exercise, if it appears to provoke symptoms. With the knowledge that exercise can be beneficial despite pain, here are 6 practical steps clinicians can take to reconceptualize this fear. Reposted with permission from Dr. Cameron Faller, DPT . 👉Understand What The Patient Understands - Provide questions that elicits information about their beliefs and perceptions as to why they have pain in the first place. . 👉Challenge Unhelpful Beliefs - Question their beliefs about their safety with exercise. Prescribe exercises or movements that were previously avoided/or painful. New associations may form that inhibit prior fear. . 👉Enhance Self-Efficacy - Ask them their level of confidence when performing a specific exercise. Discuss what might occur when they perform that exercise. Begin with easier exercises and progress to more difficult which may build self-e...

Achilles Tendon Ultrasound & Pathology in Dancers INTRO: Achilles tendinopathy commonly affects active athletes who perform repetitive tendon loading activities, including dancers. Clinical diagnosis of Achilles tendinopathy is based on: History. Location of symptoms. Behavior of pain. Exclusion of other potential causes. However, ultrasound imaging (USI) is often used to confirm the diagnosis. De-la-Cruz-Torres et al. (2020), determined the prevalence of normal and abnormal AT pathology in asymptomatic dancers and associated factors, including: Age. Height. Weight. Body mass. Average dancing hours/wk. Dancing history (years). Average pointe hours per week. Thickness and CSA of FHL muscle. Tendons were classified (normal, abnormal) using ultrasound imaging (USI).  Performance variable were measured, including: Range of movement (ROM) of the first toe joint. Balance test. Endurance test. Vertical jump. 📊📊 RESULTS: A total of 58 tend...

Dizziness and psychological (i.e. anxiety and/or depression) issues usually coincide. Pain and psychological (i.e. generalized anxiety) issues usually coincide. These are called comorbidities and we should be aware of them as healthcare professionals. Even though these symptoms are different, they occur parallel in a multi-system condition such as Cervicogenic Dizziness. It is well known that dizziness, psychological disorder and pain are multifaceted, interacting and interfering entities rather than as separate insusceptible issues. Therefore, for someone with Cervicogenic Dizziness, you are already 2 strikes towards having a psychological disorder. When dizziness persists without findings of significant vestibular or central deficits, a clinician should respect that the remaining symptoms are often associated with a psychological disorder. Consistent with Cervicogenic Dizziness being defined as a ‘diagnosis of exclusion’, the psychological aspect should always be considered w...

🎯The traditional Nordic Hamstring Curl (NHC) is a challenging, yet effective way to build posterior chain strength most notably in the hamstring musculature. There's plenty of research and literature out there stating how important it is to incorporate the NHC, to some extent, in your overall training program. Video and post from @matthewibrahim_  - reposted with permission ⠀ 🏈Watch the first video to see NFL Pro Wide Receiver @cheetah perform the traditional NHC without any assistance. Keep in mind that he is a professional athlete with a strong posterior chain, and also someone who has developed a high level of speed and power. ⠀ 🔑The reality is that performing the traditional NHC is quite challenging for a lot of folks. However, you don't need to perform the traditional version and full range of motion in order to reap the benefits of this exercise. You can still build hamstring strength and durability by utilizing some form of assistance while placing a stron...
