💥𝐀𝐧𝐤𝐥𝐞 𝐒𝐩𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧💥 ——— 👣Shown here are a few strategies that are often helpful when recovering from an inversion ankle sprain. It should be noted that this is only a short list of options and different interventions may be appropriate given an individual’s stage of healing and unique clinical presentation. This video was compiled with permission from @rehabscience on instagram - 1️⃣Dorsiflexion Mobility: It is not uncommon for people struggle with regaining dorsiflexion range of motion (ROM) following an ankle sprain. For this reason, it is recommended that strategies designed to increase dorsiflexion ROM begin early. In this position, move the knee forward to your end point for dorsiflexion. From here, you can oscillate slightly or perform a long-duration hold (2-5 minutes). Low-load, long-duration holds are one of the best strategies for increasing joint mobility. . 2️⃣Frontal View: This video shows the same stretch again, but from the front view. The key is...

Abnormal cervical range of motion (ROM) has been used as part of the clinical decision making for the  diagnosis of Cervicogenic Dizziness .  The limitation in  range of motion , as well as pain to palpation to upper cervical spinal structures, can help the clinician differentiate between dizziness of vestibular origin vs cervical origin. I am classically more of an “eye-ball” kind of ROM guy but continuing to look for objective ways to assess cervical dysfunction to not only prove a difference to the patient, but also for goal setting. Currently the  gold standard  and  most objective way  to clinically measure the ROM is the CROM device (Cervical Range of Movement).  I was part of a study about a decade ago and used the device, but it is expensive (upwards to $400) and potentially necessary in a clinical environment.   Plus — its ugly and patients feel weird with it on!  I mean — she doesn’t look too happy does she 🙂 Credit...

This post and infographic was first found on Brad Beer's Instagram. ☝🏻I get asked by runners most weeks how to get on top of plantar fasciitis (fasciopathy). In short the same 3 keys for successful tendinopathy rehab hold true: 1. Time, 2. Compliance (with program), & 3. Progressive load (through prescribed exercise progressions) 👣💪🏻 _ 👉🏻I dug this infographic (what to avoid) & can direct those that need help to the  @pogophysio  blog I have prior published (link in bio) & swipe ▶️ _ 👉🏻 Here’s 5️⃣ 5 things to avoid when suffering from plantar fasciitis: . 1️⃣ Massaging it: there’s no proven benefit in applying massage to the affected area of the rear foot 🦶 . 2️⃣ Rolling it: with ice bricks or spikey/golf balls etc. I used to prescribe arch rolling-but I stopped this years ago, as applying pressure to the already tender region may in fact sensitise the tissue and cause pain and have the opposite effect what was intended 🚫 . 3️⃣ Thongs: w...
