Muy bueno😊

What about stress fracture on L5? Should one take complete rest? Very interesting videos! Thank you!

Thanks. Good video.

I have had a massive journey with hyper-mobility syndrome recently, best advice I can give to people suffering with this condition when sitting down and using a computer is to get up and stop. It's ironic I say this over the Internet, but right now I am lying down flat on hard ground holding a laptop up and using voice commands to control my Mac. Some of you may say it's unreasonable or are unable to stop using a computer because they use it for work, to that I would say quit your job and find a new one. No, really, do you want to be in pain for the rest of your life? Because if so you have to re-organise your life around this condition. It can be daunting at first but it's extremely liberating when you take the step. I've always maintained a good gym routine because of the condition, doing the right exercises with the right weights for this type of condition. But I had office jobs, hospitality jobs, I would suppress the urge to stretch when deemed inappropriate, I would mask urges and follow what everyone else was doing in a public space ignoring my body. I would use my phone on public transport, Drive to places (my car is not designed for hypermobility at all) and I would regularly have to take take painkillers, it became a normal part of my life to integrate painkillers when I knew I had plane ride or something I knew which was gonna cause pain. I was taking high strength codeine because my tolerance was high. At 27 I was suffering from Side effects no 27-year-old should have to go through, and I decided to completely stop painkillers. But this meant I had to stop the pain in a different way, at source and through prevention. I would tell people I can't Drive if I was expected to drive, I barely use my phone or a computer anymore, and if I do as soon as I notice the pain creeping up and tightness building I stop immediately and do something else. I have missed social events because I didn't get my gym session in early enough and I prioritised that instead, and most bitterly I greatly curbed activity in one of my greatest joys in this life which is playing the guitar. I used to be able to sit for hours writing songs and messing around on that thing, now I will get to 30 minutes maximum and stop. I stretch in public, I will sit on the floor in public spaces, I'll sometimes not even wear shoes if my feet/knees aren't feeling okay. In job interviews or bank meetings et cetera and they say "please take a seat" I always explain that I have a health condition and will most likely be standing for the duration of it, I'll even whack out an occasional tree pose, why give a fuck if it all helps your health. The anxiety I had around taking these sort of steps, being worried about what people may think or say, lead me to tears at one point. But that was then, and I haven't looked back since, I feel so good and pain-free that it's all worthwhile. Most positively, it made me focus even more on the gym and nutrition, before I suffered from this condition I used to struggle with motivation, but now knowing my actions will have direct consequences on my pain levels it's so great a very easy choice to avoid alcohol avoid junk food go to the gym on days where I'm really not feeling it If you're suffering from this condition, I recommend you to Take control of your life, you know what's hurting you, you know what helps you, our body is a great communicator to us and people with this condition are blessed because all the things that are damaging everybody else are a lot more pronounced to us, it's just that hypermobile people are more aware of it!

This vídeo is incredible, not only it explains super well the position in which we need to put the tape, but it immediately released so much pressure on my serratus muscle that the pain I had became bearable. I was able to do some exercices on the gym, and I felt it was super helpful to know if my shoulder was in the correct position during the exercise. Thank you SO MUCH!

the method of untying it is so clever!! thanks so much, my ribbons were stuck and i couldnt get them un tied🫶🏽

Never do dance, all the women I’ve every met have ruined their feet from dance

Incredible video! Thank you for getting us this content.

I am adult ballet dancer and this is amazing to learn and deep respect to the expertises you have and responsibility to teach dancers and prevent injury. Big applause!

Hi, thank you so much for this video. It helped a lot, what kind of exercises would you recommend if you have the second injury? So the stress fracture?

❤❤❤❤

At 36 years old, I started doing ballet out of the blue 1-2 hours a day for a month, and have been slammed with left but pain every single day. Yes I’m stretching and kneading out the knots multiple times a day. Thanks for this video.

Hola saludos desde Costa Rica, gracias por compartir sus conocimientos a las dos, Creo que esta disponible en Amazon?

Perfect, will try this with my students in class. Thank you!

I feel like the tape does nothing, it's far to slight a pressure to make a difference. Do you have any suggestions? I've had bunions my whole life. I had surgery to straighten them, but they are getting worse again.

thanks god I found your channel!!! ❤❤❤❤❤ you give us very useful tips for dancerr

😊

You are the best, so perfect. I hope to see videos on foot pointing especially for the toes, as I am training I have some problems with them. Thanks again :):):)

Bonjour Lisa je vais tester votre progression cet après-midi ❤

Great application, thank you!

As a principal ballet dancer, I can tell you that this is fantastic.

Great video! Do you have any recommendations for FHL injury exercises x

i dont see a bunion on her at aaalllll

So appreciate your information!! ❤ I was trained in tap and jazz and was a competitive dancer in clogging. I am now 49 and doctors can't figure out what's happening with my muscles 😭 how do I explain to my physical therapist that dancers will overcompensate using other muscles and treatment needs to be approached differently..? 😢

Absolutely wonderful information that all teachers and parents of young dancers or acrobats need to have to protect young people.

Thank you for the information! How do you go about strengthening the deep back muscles? I have a lot of pain in the hip flexor when doing developpes and of course I would like to get rid of it!

Hello, and what can we do if we claw? thank you

Thanks!!!

Thank you for the information

Thanks/Gracias ! .

Do you have a video or advice for dancers who struggle with accessing "straight knees"?

this is SO IMPORTANT! If you have plantar fasciitis its also super important to walk with your feet straight and not turned out!

Thank you! I’ve been looking for these kind of clear explanations for years. I feel like I found the holy graal with your channel!

I'm so glad I found you! I work as a stenographer and transcriptionist and I'm sitting at either my steno machine or computer for entire days. I've always had such a hard time sitting still and getting comfortable, especially at my computer while editing. I'm constating sitting on one foot or the other and now I'm having some pretty bad hip pain. I'm going to try the lean back method and see how that helps.

THANK YOU!. Omg her transformation is insane!.

oh my god my hands always cramped up when writing stuff for school i wish i would have seen this 10 years ago

I have a bunion on one foot. Use toe spacers once in a while seems under control. For long walks I cover it with duck tape it does the trick. No pain after the walk.

Thanks

This is so helpful! Thank you!!!

Does your book show how one can perform this massage on yourself? Or does one need a facilitator? Thank you for this amazing approach...

What is the cupping she talks about? Ive searched but can find

Thank you so much for this video. This knowledge will be instrumental in retraining my painful hip flexor and hip joint restriction. I am a dance teacher and have been struggling for months with extreme hip flexor tightness. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us it is in valuable!

This is very helpful! I know I am a good 3 years late but I started stretching this year and felt some pain in my joints in some of the stretches I do, good to know to stop doing those stretches now, thanks!

Such excellent series! Just as informative 10 years after publishing, thank you!

U cant do chest stand if ur not putting weight on ur chin u will fall

'Promosm' 👏

Thank you for this very detailed video. How long can this tape be worn?

Omg thank you!! I am so happy that I found you!! I literally sit on all of those positions you showed and all my life and always wondered why I couldn't be straight

Is this the same as kinesiology tape?

i’m hypomobile and i get cramps in my fingers when i write and if you see a special sensory person you can get 25% longer in exams! I am also dyslexic can you give me any advice on any of them thanks great video
