Clicked this super fast

[@throast7247]

You guys are so funny and awesome, you've been so incredibly helpful I wish I could personally thank you 2 💞

[@BobandBrad]

You just did thank us 😃 we appreciate your kind words

[@meganatkinson1593]

I am constantly sharing your videos with my home health patients! This is a great reminder for all the folks I work with on bed positioning! (Sometimes I feel like the only OT getting into the nitty gritty of this) Thank you!

[@LizGonzalez-mi1ru]

Thank you so much, Bob, and Brad! I've tried to use pillows to support my sitting in bed for reading, and such, but this information will definitely help, as all of your videos do, thank you. I would like to know how to support myself sitting in bed, and underlining words, and writing notes, like I do in my bible.

[@kmsm832]

Love the humor between you two. The information shared is so needed. Thanks for this video

[@erikaventer3592]

Looks like I might need an assistant to help me get ready for reading in bed hahah. Love your advise!! Thanks to these docters!

[@lorifirkus8209]

You guy’s are so fun and helpful. I couple pillows and I’m already feeling better. Thank You!

[@elizabethpeterson4029]

Discovered this channel about 3 months ago....chronic back pain! Thanks for the tips and I appreciate how you explain what to do with less mobility! PEACE

[@BobandBrad]

Happy to help!

[@Busyfigureskating]

That quote of the day.. love it. Thanks for all you do to help people in so many ways🙏🏻

[@BobandBrad]

That’s great to hear

[@mish7773]

after watching your video I ordered bed wedge. thanks for the helpful info. stay healthy 😊

[@KS-vg4jo]

I love these two - great advice. I think of them as the Bert and Ernie (Sesame St) of the Physio world.

[@cocreatechange852]

You guys are hilarious. The wedge seems the way to go! Lol.

[@sanjadedus]

Watching your videos one after another, I guess I have to invest into more pillows! 😄 I have four kids, the youngest is still breastfeeding and there is no one day without a shoulder or neck pain, or even wrist and elbow pain... Thank you for all the videos and greetings from Croatia!

[@ew7512]

Love these guys. Miss Bob.

[@kathleenkalt3852]

I have been trying all of your sciatica stretches for weeks without much relief (I know, see a doctor). Then the other day I watched one of your videos about never getting rid of hip pain if you do this, and I was sitting wrong all the time. This video also shows all the things I was doing wrong. I had no idea that sitting with my knees up could be a problem. I've reached the age when I need to spend half the day stretching to get out of bed and the other half stretching and exercising to get back in bed!

[@BobandBrad]

hopefully this helped!

[@beckyj325]

This is so helpful

[@amyberchtold2728]

This video was hillarious yet so helpful! A wedge pillow! Perfect. I have always wanted to read in bed but thought how harmful it was to my back issues. Now I have a new plan. Maybe you two should go into comedy next...you know laughter is the best medicine

[@BobandBrad]

:)

[@MickeyCool30]

Love the music btw 👍

[@jag2333]

Great tips

[@margaretwhittaker2291]

Love you guys 💛💚

[@servantof_allah]

I love these guys😭❤️

[@marjorieo.2176]

I follow your recommendations for the bed wedge. It helps me and my husband stops snoring and back pain.

[@BobandBrad]

Happy it helps!

[@delsings]

Thank you VERY much. I've been highly sedentary and stuck to a bed and a couch so often...especially the last nearly 4 years. Ironically it was due partially to spine pain problems, which is no doubt even worse. Gonna have to for sure get bed wedge.

[@BobandBrad]

Glad to help

[@angylouv]

You guys are amazing 🎉🎉

[@doveandolive1153]

I can never get comfortable reading in bed. I'm gonna try this out and if it doesn't work I think I'm gonna create a reading nook and get in the habit of reading just before bed. Thanks for sharing.

[@miryamhiatt3528]

Very helpful video as always

[@BobandBrad]

Thanks😊

[@Fitness4BackPain]

Hey guys I have really enjoyed watching your content on sciatica and think it would be an awesome idea to collaborate on the topic of exercising with sciatica. I have a few ideas in mind on how we can swing it but wanted to check with you first!

[@elsplace896]

Thanks for this! I've had off and on headaches for a month from slouching in bed.

[@conifergreen2]

Wow did I ever need this advice. Thanks guys!

[@BobandBrad]

You are very welcome. Glad it helped you 😊

[@Life_42]

Thank you so much!

[@BobandBrad]

Happy to help 😊

[@Justgiveitagrow]

This video popping up in my feed as I’m literally sitting in this exact position 😂

[@BobandBrad]

A lot of people do!!

[@breannav2238]

I needed this. I sprained my ankle couple weeks ago and been stuck in bed. But I need to invest in this!!!

[@BobandBrad]

Hope it helps!

[@marinanikolic4755]

Thank you, very much! 🥰

[@BobandBrad]

You are very welcome

[@rashaabdalrahim153]

Your te best bob

[@Lindajean55]

Thank you very much. I have a bed wedge, but I never turned it that direction. I am in physical therapy, and things are not getting better. Every muscle in my body aches - no injuries. I'm 67. I guess I will wait to see my primary again. Could be my statin.

[@brendalg4]

Bob you don't have to worry about trying to be better... we were just concerned! I sit with my legs under me. My mom sits in a recliner with her legs up. Maybe you could do a video on those

[@BobandBrad]

Will put it on our to do list! Thank you !

[@vickifulkerson6068]

Hope you are feeling better by now!

[@mandydobosz6343]

I love your expertise guys. I hope you like a challenge. I have spinal injuries, anterior avulsion fracture C6 and I've worn away significant oesteophytes between T6 and T9. I would like to type and read more for work and a bonus would be for pleasure. I lie down alot to self realign joins that connect to those areas. So mostly the vertebra column, shoulders girdle and ribs. Thanks to one of your vlogs I have been able to release a lot of tension in and around both sacral illiac joints. I can get pain free and relaxed laid down with loads of pillows but then I've only been able to watch phone TV when I get the phone strategically placed . This has to work on both sides so I can continue to realign regularly due to the return of pain and unbeatable muscle tension. Please can you help and advice? Kind Regards

[@VettRose]

This explains why my neck is so tight today...

[@kentuckyfriedegg3409]

A part of me is glad when I have a back problem just so I can watch these guys 😂

[@ManojTiwari-uc9lm]

Lots & lofs of pillows.. 😂......but jokes apart certainly very informative video. Thank you Bob & Brad 👍🙏💐💐

[@BobandBrad]

[@ssungart]

I hav a question here. hi i hav a herniated lumbar disc and scoliokyphosis(20°) and my back is really painful when i just normally sit or standing. i sit in a chair as i heard this chair maintains my back curve naturally. bur i feel more pain. so i usually sit on a bed like this video. i wanna know whether this posture make my back even worse for scoliojyphosis. which position is better? sitting on a chair (with pain) or sitting on a bed(without pain) for a long time? by the way i dont put smaller pillow on my lowet back. this can ruin my spine curve isnt it?maybe i should buy the black pillow that you guys showed the other day.

[@artpekarekiii4320]

A whole lot of work to study for college. We all know. Another great video from these two nice guys.

[@BobandBrad]

Thanks :)

[@samratkafle5522]

sir hello. sir plz plz reply after doing shoulder surgery will there again chance of shoulder dislocate.

[@dawntreacy3431]

Can neck pain cause vertigo since buying a new bed that isn't supporting my back and neck I have had serious neck pain for months and bad headaches .. but Sunday the room started spinning...

[@lalomachine]

Thank You, I've got a question: Is the Coxis also relieved? Isn't it touching the bed Surface? I'm young and My low back hurts 😔

[@PetPrepRadioShow]

Thank you for these videos! You have really been a great help to me! I need to win the bed. If you only saw my Xrays. Do you all see people? Maybe I should travel from NE Ohio to see you guys!

[@libertyindc1123]

Your videos are great - informative and entertaining! But it sounded a bit like Bob had a few cocktails before the show lol!

[@morganstewart8105]

Nothing wrong with a nightcap before bed ;)

[@bekkiharper2963]

Yes,

[@mariegoocher4338]

Brad had mouth surgery, is still healing, and addressed this a few weeks ago.

[@BobandBrad]

Bob did have mouth surgery and he’s still healing 😊

[@LLJerseyGirl]

I’ll just be supine and have someone hold my book, LOL. I have a very firm cervical pillow that I prop up behind me and I use a rolled up throw blanket for arm support. 🙌🏻

[@Joy-sp3il]

Tell me about it that position is very bad I am having pain because of sitting in bed like that thank you guys for this😍

[@sawyer4713]

I LOVE to sit in bed and read. I know it is bad. So thanks SO MUCH to you.

[@BobandBrad]

You’re very welcome

[@CHOSENWIN]

Good morning Docs, Place me on that list for winning that New mattress. I'm in dire need of a good supportive one. Thanks for your helpful advice.🥰

[@FeelingShred]

SEVEN HUNDRED tiny mattresses 🤣🤣🤣🤣 these guys crack me up Back still hurts, but the laughing keeps my spirits lifted 😂😂

[@BobandBrad]

Glad we can do that for you!

[@catherinecharletpellerin]

hi brad and bob ..i do have lower back pains daily and am wondering what the name of this bed is called please? and thank you both of you have made my aging a whole lot simpler

[@BobandBrad]

This is the Sleepovation mattress. The link is above in the description of the video if you are interested

[@syedaanamsultana]

I wonder if I can sit like this with a third trimester bump in the way. Im on complete bed rest(pelvic rest) I asked my doc if it would be okay to sit up in bed since I have to study, she said i could but I can't even sit for more than 5 minutes.

[@BlueLineofthesky]

HI, BOB AND BRAD! I have a question for you. I use to bounce a lot of my left leg when I sit at the desk. You know...keeping the front of the food down and bouncing the heel up and down in a repetitive fast motion for hours and hours....Now I have a diffuse strange calf pain that is not related to effort and also some small fasciculations. I also have chronic radiculopathy on that leg because of lumbar shrinking discs. In the last months, I also see that my left calf start to look smaller. Is that related to my habit of bouncing my leg? Can you make a video about bad habits when working long hours at a desk? Thank you!

[@BobandBrad]

I will add this to our to do list :)

[@ToshaRaeNailed]

I lay in the bed with 4 pillow supporting my back or one of those huge bed wedge pillows with the arm rest and pockets

[@devin04]

Make knock knee video plzz

[@betsyc5123]

Please do a video on how to select a reading chair

[@BobandBrad]

I will add this to our to do list!

[@toniawilmoth7535]

Have y’all had a few drinks before recording this video?? LMAO!!

[@kirkfletcher6028]

Lot of pillows... lol. Just bought an adjustable bed to help. It raises the back and can give support to the legs, but I think I still need three pillows to get it perfect: lumbar support, head, arms. Maybe you can do a vid with adjustable beds? *sigh*

[@paganant3623]

1 the team tune is ace lol and the guy in white may be pissed lol

[@morganstewart8105]

Woke up unable to turn sideways yesterday from a messed up Rib or muscle near it. My phone must have heard me complaining about my bed lol

[@captainofthewhitetower]

What if we set lumbar support towel vertical is it good?

[@BobandBrad]

That could work!

[@SPQRIUS]

every time I see these two now I sit up straight - and I discovered that good posture helps you get over a broken heart, but it isn't helping my pen, (haha remember those things)

[@KingWorkout77]

👍

[@manfredconnor3194]

Got 2 questions guys: 1.) When would you and when would you NOT recommend a hot bath for back and/or neck pain? Are hot baths always good? 2.) Apart from injuries, when should you use ice instead of heat and how do you know when to do that?

[@BobandBrad]

Heat is good so hot baths are fine for neck and back pain. Here is a video for the ice vs heat question: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rmfFlqRtoKyNf9k or kzbin.info/www/bejne/q2fEdml5prqCbqM

[@manfredconnor3194]

@@BobandBrad Hey, thanks guys! You really exist and write back. How cool is that? Ever get over to Germany?

[@Nersius]

Not sure which was supported better by Bob, Brad's spine or Brad's emotional wellbeing.

[@BobandBrad]

Right!

[@robdavies4294]

then what happens when you start reading...well, I gather information and knowledge...made me chuckle

Are sleep numbers mattress recliner good?

How long have you been sleeping on Your mattress? Do you notice any softness? Low spots? What is life expectancy?

[@BobandBrad]

I am not sure what the life expectancy is but we have had our mattresses for several years and they are still as good as when we first got them

[@venderbot]

Can these methods be used for a pregnant women?

[@BobandBrad]

Yes

[@paulj1828]

Help , what's wrong with my shoulder ....?!.….. Standing with my left arm by my side , i move my arm straight out directly from my side ,thumb forward ....palm flat... ..as arm gets to 45 degrees i get a stabbing pain at the front of my left shoulder ,about 2 inches above the bicep ....Also i get a stabbing pain in about the same place if i sleep on my left shoulder ..... My Dr is too busy to see me ..... Any ideas please guys ?... 👍😊

[@BobandBrad]

We are very sorry to hear this. Unfortunately we are unable to answer individual medical questions online due to everyone’s unique bodies and situations. We do have a shoulder program on our website that you could try some of the videos there to see if this would help

[@LesleyB38]

How do you prevent yourself from sliding down the bed? Also you didn’t show us how to position the wedge if suffering from reflux?

[@fretworkband3204]

I have one of these and the same problem. Just place it horizontally instead of vertically with the long part of the triangle aimed at your feet. Place a pillow on top for your head and you’re good to go.

[@LesleyB38]

@@fretworkband3204 Thank you - very helpful 👍

[@StevenGrantCaron-Stills]

is there no subject you haven't touched on.3 videos today watch 3 problems solved. what am i gonna do with the rest of my day. can i get you guys to give me money advice too.

[@zennabella1676]

THAT IDEA IS OK IN THE FINAL RESULT BUT WOULD THAT WEDGE PILLOW AND PILLOWS STAY LIKE THAT IF YOU WENT TO SLEEP LIKE IT? IM AN ELDERLY PERSON AND I WOULD LIKE TO FIND SOMETHING MORE COMFY THAN MY RECLINER CHAIR I SLEEP IN. I LIKE TO TURN TO MY LEFT SIDE MOST OF THE TIME WHILE ON THE INTERNET AND TO MY RIGHT SIDE TO EAT DINNER AND I FACE THE FRONT TO WATCH THE TV OR MOVIE. BUT IM THINKING NOW MAYBE A BED WOULD BE BETTER. THE ONLY PROBLEM WITH THAT EVEN IF ITS A SIT UP BED IS IT HAS NO ARMS. IF ONLY SIT UP BEDS WERE MADE WITH ARMS LIKE A RECLINER CHAIR.
