Only three exercises in & this is the MOST STRETCH I’VE FELT IN THIS AREA EVER. I was yelling out cause it hurt so good. I have a rare autoimmune disease that attacks my cartilage (likely why it’s so bad in T11-12 floating ribs). The way I’d describe this syndrome (dx) is feeling LOCKED, no matter how many “normal” lumbar stretches I’ve done. It’s felt for three years -since my son’s birth, beyond severe pain. Can’t even do dishes for 5 minutes without pain. Putting him in carseat…nothing. I’m going to do these every morning.. cause it actually felt effective.. Never seen these stretches anywhere for low back stuff. Not at PT, pelvic floor stuff…nowhere. I bet so many ppl just don’t know ab the thoracolumbar junction & it’s function. Thank you!

I'm glad that you were able to stumble upon my video! Yes, not many know about this condition because it is considered to be a rare diagnosis. Good luck with your recovery :)

Excellent video! As a board certified interventional pain physician of 30 years and an active powerlifter, I am suffering from a flair up of severe TLJ syndrome. Any advice or videos pertaining to the “masters” age athlete or any other strength athlete would be greatly appreciated and helpful! Thanks!!!

Thank you! In general warming up thoracic mobility prior to powerlifting can help with reducing symptoms. Some exercise options are thoracic rotations, thoracic open books, thread the needle. Temporarily de-loading your training to let the TLJ calm down can be helpful too, especially if it's been awhile since doing a de-load week. Hope that helps!

My thoracolumbar region is a disaster 😣 degenerative disc disease, spurs on lower vertebrae, and a rear ending nearly 10 years ago that wrenched the fascia.

sorry to hear! have you tried any progressive exercises? DDD and bone spurs may predispose you to pain but can be managed well with a good exercise program. generally exercises that focus on spine mobility and hip strength is a good place to start.

Hi! how can you do an alternative exercise 2-3 if you have knee injuries and cannotsit on your knees
@RehabHero19 күн бұрын
Hey there, for exercise 2 and 3 you can instead do a Desk Thread the Needle (www.rehabhero.ca/exercise/desk-thread-the-needle) . This exercise combines both movements into 1

What do you do if your hands don’t touch the floor on the first exercise where your back is on the foam roller? Just let them hang at the back ? Or is it better to bring them down to the front? Thank you!

...Where do I get the roller, size? Thank you.
