Shoulder Pain

Do you have shoulder pain?

Check out the videos below on my clients’ progress. Living with shoulder stiffness and pain can be difficult. You have options to help decrease your shoulder pain.

What are my options for shoulder pain?

There are both invasive and non-invasive options. My client opted for surgical intervention first. This option was chosen based on thorough research, clinical case history and patient values. He then put in the work after surgery with a team of physiotherapists, Chiropractor and trainers to get him to this point.

If you are having problems, the best thing to do is get an assessment to see what is best for your case and is in line with your values.

Running Race

Trail running at night? The athletes took the starting line at 830pm to run a night trail race, the Barclay’s Moontrekker,

 

I was the onsite clinician at the start and finish line. Some runners needed to be seen pre race to get taped up or injury advice. Post race care included taking care of

ankle sprains, quadriceps strains, contusions and cramps. Most clients were iced, taped, massaged or had their joints mobilized. During and after the event, I had the pleasure of meeting and treating the BMC Race team. The 2011 Tour De France winner, Cadel Evans and Head of sport, Troy De Haas, were participants in the race and came to the office afterwards for an appointment. Thanks guys!

Sports Clinic

Learning from Sports Clinic experts

I was fortunate to visit Dr. Mike Chivers, Head Lead Instructor of Functional Anatomy Seminars for Functional Release and Functional Range Assessment.  @drmchivers .

“Dr. Chivers holds an Honours Bachelor of Physical Education from Brock University. He is a graduate of the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College (CMCC) where he graduated Cum Laude and with clinical honours and a Doctor of Chiropractic. He is a Fellow of the Royal College of Chiropractic Sports Sciences after finishing a two year post-graduate residency program. He has been an Assistant Professor at CMCC in the departments of Clinical Education and Orthopedics.

He has also written numerous articles and has published papers in peer reviewed scientific journals.” (bio from https://www.functionalanatomyseminars.com/about-us/)

 

Dr. Mike Chivers allowed me to observe and speak to him on how he adapts the Functional Anatomy Seminars Paradigm when making clinical decisions on sports injury.

I was able to observe 6 cases in the time I was in the Sports Clinic. Here are some brief descriptions of the cases below:

Case 1- hip paib, achy but less sore,  running box jumps causing pain into testicle region, cueing for cat cow was done to reduce rib flare and also practice diaphragm breathing for rib mobility.

Case 2- Ankle sprain from sports. FR done on ankle musculature

Case 3- right hip pain when walking

Case4- bilateral elbow, rotation irritation in forearms, lack of supination,  elbow weighted cars and pails to supination given to promote motion

Case 5- left knee shattered, wiring 2x and pinning, 5 procedures, 6 month post total knee replacement, patient reported dry needling after 1 session brought the lowest pain levels down since knee replacement.

Case 6- Right knee pain and irritation in older female, difficulty walking, FR to knee

 

Special thank you Dr. Chivers and Sports Performance Centres for having me.
