Do you have chronic migraines/headaches and nothing you do seems to help? ☹️
Not many people realize we also treat patients with chronic migraines, headaches, TMJ pain, and any head/neck related pain.
A lot of times, these issues can be caused by nerve entrapments in the head/neck area. The muscles that stabilize your head/neck can form adhesions that will entrap the nerves, our job is to get rid of that so that your nerves have room to “slide” and move how they should.
Yes, tiny nerve entrapments can cause big problems!! That is why it is easy to miss. Some therapies that you might be trying are trying to chase after the symptoms instead of the actual problem. Adhesion is a problem that can cause symptoms like this and can be easily missed by other professionals.
Why do you have these adhesions you ask?? Typically, it forms from overuse of a specific area or trauma to the soft tissues.
As muscles get overused, they become “adhered”, so there will be less function, less strength and less flexibility in that area. Your other muscles going to try and over compensate for those muscles not performing correctly.
Think of your muscles as a team, if a team member is down, other muscles have to try and pick up the slack.
Tag someone you know that might have this problem! 🤕 We can help!

There are a lot of ways to “fix” something temporarily.
There is only one way to fix it permanently.
Determine what the symptom generator is.
Figure out what is loading that structure and make it as healthy as possible.
Treat the pain generator directly (if possible/needed).
For some reason, this isn’t the standard of care.
Tears don’t just “happen” to healthy tissue unless there is an incredibly traumatic accident involved.
You will see athletes have repeated surgeries on the same structure over the course of their careers.
Why?
Because the tear was treated, but not the reason why the tear occurred.
Adhesion is incredibly treatable with the right education and occurs with overuse.
You can have the highest tech and best surgical team at your disposal, but if you don’t incorporate the right game plan, you won’t see the lasting results you would like to.

We love helping patients get back to the activities they enjoy.
It’s one thing to be able to return to your favorite activities, but it’s really special when you can return without having your previous injury sitting in the back of your mind.
The right diagnosis matched with the right treatment can make all the difference in the world!

Adhesion isn’t that difficult to understand, but it is difficult to fix.
A little bit of adhesion won’t change your life much, but over time as it builds up you can get symptoms that come “out of nowhere” and really force you to alter your lifestyle.
Recognizing that YOU have control of how your body recovers is key to maintaining your health.
You could go to the best docs in the world to get fixed, but unless you change the aspects of your life that led to it, your problem will pop up again down the road.
You are in control of your future.

We help a lot of people with problems that have been around a LONG time.
People refer friends and family to us, but sometimes they are met with:
“I get that they are different, but how?”
“What do they do?”
This will hopefully help with that.
If you have an idea that would make this video better, we would love to see it in a comment below!

My wife loves @Jessie James Decker and thought i should make a video about her pregnancy-related carpal tunnel syndrome and how there IS hope for her to not wear braces on her wrists to “fix” it.
Adhesion comes from overuse/underrecovery of the muscles, acting like a cast over the not-yet-healed muscles to allow them to heal acfter activity.
The difference between adhesion and a cast when you break your bone is a big one—the adhesion doesnt go away.
It sticks around, not allowing the muscle tissue it covers to work, so you have less healthy tissue to do work and overuse is a LITTLE bit lore likely the next time you use those muscles.
Since adhesion can he difficult to fix, finding an adhesion specialist is your best bet to eliminate your symptoms and improve your function PERMANENTLY

Most people over the age of 35 have disc bulges, but only a fraction of the have symptoms.
Why is that?
It’s because of things that can indirectly put load on the disc—adhesion on muscles, nerves, muscle weakness, or degeneration/dysfunction in other parts of the body.
If you fix these other problems, less load goes into the disc, meaning fewer (or no) symptoms.
Don’t start no problems and there won’t be no problems.

Evcentric exercise is absolutely essential for the building (and maintenance) of muscle mass and function.
As we get older, we slowly lose our type II muscle fibers—to the tune of about 0.8%/year after the age of 50.
This fibers allow you to do things quickly, smoothly and maintain muscle mass.
If you don’t regularlt recruit them, they will die off or transition to type I fibers—slow twitch muscle fibers.
These fast twitch fibers are so important because they are the ones you use when reacting to things quickly.
That means when you slip on ice or need to do something that requires dexterity, these are the fibers that allow you to catch yourself or perform that tedious activity.
If you don’t have those fibers, you simply won’t be able to do those things, so instead you risk injury and potential broken bones as you get older.
If you break your hip after the age of 65, you are 50/50 on dying wothin 6 months of the fracture.

Numb or “weird” sensations are annoying and are often the result of either adhesion entrapping a nerve or a disc being irritated (often by adhesion).
If you can take the load off of the nerve and/or disc there will be no reason for the numbness to occur!
This is how important getting rid of adhesion is: it affects how well you move, feel and function.
This is what we specialize in fixing.
If you have seen 3+ doctors/therapists and have had your problem for more than 6 months, like, share and comment what kind of symptoms you’re dealing with!

In our office, most people come in with injuries rhat happened over months or years.
When a player is walking on the court and something just “pops” without trauma, it is the resukt of long term overuse (and likely adhesion).
This is NOT that.
Aaron Rodgers’ ankle dorsiflexion is likely 15 degrees plus or minus 5.5 degrees if you are to helieve research.
His ankle in this picture is at SEVENTYSIX degrees.
Tissues are simply not designed to stretch that far past their normal ROM.

Headaches and migraines are very tricky to deal with.
They can be caused by all kinds of things, and one that gets rarely checked would be the occipital nerves in the back of the skull.
If a nerve becomes entrapped, that nerve won’t be able to move well and it will be swollen around the area of the adhesion.
These irritated nerves are far more likely to cause headache or migraine symptoms.
Once the adhesion is gone, there is one fewer thing that can cause headaches and migraines.

At our office, our job is to provide relief for those who are out of options and don’t want surgery.
Unfortunately for some, surgery is still the best option and it is necessary for health to progress.
In this particular case, our patient Bob came to us to avoid surgery and we couldn’t get him the relief he was hoping for—the hip was too degenerated.
He ended up having surgery and was happy about the decision.
After surgery, he did have some lingering symptoms because the fact is, surgery is traumatic to the local tissues and adhesion is the result of trauma.
Bob is still recovering, but his function is significantly higher than had he not seen us before, and after surgery.
We aren’t always miracle workers, but we do our absolute best to provide the best results for our patients however we can.
