Feeling tension in your neck and upper shoulders? Then give this a try … to open the front line and to strengthen the mid back … which ultimately improves posture. Begin lying on your stomach with your arms comfortably at your sides. While keeping your arms straight, lift your shoulders and arms up […]
Many female clients come to me who experience Lateral Hip Pain. I take note to see that they tend to stand and sit with their legs glued together (sitting “like a lady” as we were all taught) in a reverse triangle position. I also note their tendency toward wider hips which are essential in […]
You know that feeling … when your shoulders are stuck to your ears. That’s a true sign that your trapezius is overworked. Did you know … The trapezius is diamond shaped and runs from the base of the skull, extends across the shoulders, down to the bottom of the rib cage. The upper […]
STOP SLOUCHING! That’s what Mom used to say. She was right. We cannot change the fact that everything we do in IN FRONT of us. But we can change how we respond to it … retrain our brain how to sit up and stand up straight! Constantly sitting in flexion can cause such […]
Oh the OCCIPITALS … the bobble head muscles … those tiny little buggers at the base of your skull that are known to cause so much pain and discomfort, dizziness and nausea, and sick days from work. In my opinion, they’re the reason why so many NSAIDS are on the market today. Did […]

When was the last time you saw a person walking around with their arms wrapped behind their back? And you thought to yourself, “man, look at those tight rhomboids!” STOP ALLOWING YOUR MASSAGE THERAPIST TO DIG THEIR ELBOWS IN BETWEEN YOUR SHOULDER BLADES TO WORK OUT THOSE “TRIGGER POINTS’!!! It’s not helping, but only […]
Pain is an indication that your body wants you to change your postural patterns. Many times I find that clients have a pelvis that is not balanced. This imbalance could be the source of not only their low back into hip pain, but also neck into shoulder pain. It seems as though the […]
A client who loves hiking has a history of a broken right calcaneus (heel) and sprained ankle. She feels pain in the lateral dorsal (top) portion of her foot leading up to the knee and hip, especially when walking down hill and for several days after a hike. During our session, she actively participated […]
Now that so many people work from home, I find that my clients are coming to the office expressing neck pain. My first question to them … What is your home office setup? Their response … I use a laptop and mix up my seating positions between the kitchen, the bed, the couch, […]
