[@lizzyrae19]

Bob and Brad you two are my favorite "go to" physical therapists for advice, healing and etc! (I have lived many years in Florida but I was born and raised in Mn. I say this because I see one of you are a Vikings fan). I follow the natural healing path so for years I have watched all sorts of online genre related to fitness and physical health and healing. They are informative but you two are so much more fun to watch. Even though I'm a nurse who knows the human body I still find it refreshing how you guys explain everything in laymen terms. Thank You

[@lb4660]

Me too amazing these guys can help us without seeing us in person! I wish I was able to become a PT these guys and Dr Jo's channel inspire me.

Yup. I need to learn to take my breaks because company gives them to me and my body definitely needs them. 😩 I might not feel it at work but once I get home then I do and it becomes an instant regret. I'm only getting older, no need to rush anything.

How long do you walk on straight land before attempting to walk on elevated side walks or stairs? aside from if you have pain don't do it... but rather more of a conditioning perspective. As you age being gentle with your body becomes more important than endurance and strength. Adjusting to getting old is a constant struggle...

[@azlizzie]

My hip pain is piriformis and psoas. When I stretch I’m good. When I don’t ugh. Staying consistent is the tough part.

[@wjvlodek8769]

Hi! I have (by self diagnosis) performs for abut 1 month. It is killing me...especially when I sit down. I just started stretching and using foam roller about 2 weeks go. Mine, too, gets better when I stretch and definitely much worse in AM. It takes about 3 hours each am before I can sit and have cup of coffee...How long do you think this is going to last...how long did it take until you started getting some relief? THANKS!!

[@azlizzie]

I was so happy to retire so I could relax. I sat at a desk and rode in my car for my work. I relax a lot o. He sofa with my legs up on the sofa. I take up the whole sofa. My back pain hadn’t gotten worse and when it is flavored up, it actually feels good to recline and rest in a reclined position on the sofa. Now I learn I am not supposed to lay or sit around for long. Bummer!!

[@dawnwhittle2004]

I love these guys, loads of brill tips, especially the sleeping with pillow between legs, that makes a huge difference now to reduce my back pain 💚

[@JacobGenereux]

Hi Bob and Brad, I love the advice you guys give. There's so much content to look through, I can't tell if you guys addressed or have suggested for someone that must stand for a long time while working. Unfortunately, sitting is not an option for me in a production environment. Do you have any other recommendations previously recorded, or specific to my question to alleviate the stress when standing for a prolonged time?

[@JessicaDudas]

HAHA Yes! We don't want to look like Dr. House, shocked they didn't correct that in filming LOL! I love just saying bend one knee and just do a hip drop to help mobilize the pelvis just like our initial phase of walking! Always great tips guys😊

[@KathyAZ]

Great service, guys. Thanks! What about sitting with legs crossed? It's a hard habit to break.

[@BobandBrad]

We will add that to our to do list!

Hiya! So glad I found your videos and very helpful advice! I just been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis hips and am currently living on a second floor apartment with no lift. Si far I am ok walking up the stairs nearly everyday and my question is, will it worsen my hips? It will break my heart to move but need advice please

[@curious1366]

Hello! I am an adult, but I'm less than 5 feet tall. I don't reach the floor on most chairs & sofas! If I let my feet dangle, then it overarches my low back. So... sitting with the bent knee as you show at 2:20 or sitting cross-legged is the only way that I feel stable and these positions allow me to get back support.

[@KysterElla]

You need to invest in a footstool, I have one for under my desk as I also have short legs!!

[@curious1366]

@@KysterElla I have footstools etc at my house, but that doesn't work if I'm at someone's house or when traveling etc. Sometimes I can put pillows on the floor, but not when I'm in a public place.

@@curious1366 I used to carry a collapsible footstool around with me and have used it in public places.

[@louannhuber2651]

The pillow between the legs while sleeping on the ‘good’ side and also under the back when sleeping on the back has helped tremendously.

[@Susan-md6nd]

I was very active, then my hips went on me, according to drs, I have bad arthritis, in both hips. Walked with a bit of a limp, physio said to use a cane, wish I had never used an aide, as now I use 2 sticks and a walker, due to my right leg being weak. I do a workout, with a stretch band, which has taken some of the stiffness away. Will never have surgery, looking at stemcell therapy, as here in Melbourne, Australia, we have one of the leading clinics, in the world.

Love your videos Helped me alot for my clients I give them ur advices n links to follow after I massage them. Sleeping with a pillow between my legs has helped me tremendously If I can't go for a walk then I may as well March on the spot which will be better, to move the ball n socket Also maybe standing on a step let the other leg hang downed the step, move it forward n backward make sure you holding the wall. Also keep ur hips level Repeat on-the other side.

Holy moly !! 😃 Brad, it cracks me up that you are once more caching Bob making a particular comment in regards to women. (And recognizing potential repercussions !) His latest one ("as it should be") was worse than in this video that I'm just seeing from a year ago. My best friend is having severe hip pain, so I'm looking at all your videos pertaining to it. I just KNOW these are going to help her. 🙏🏽 She is about to see an acupuncturist, but I bet these tips and exercises would benefit her greatly. 💙Thank you.

@@BobandBrad 🙏🏽 🙏🏽 🙏🏽 FINALLY some relief !!! My friend had many visits to a physical therapist and learned some hip stretches over the last couple years. With increasing pain and near inability to take a step, I encouraged her to watch your videos. She began incorporating exercises each morning. She quickly bought and read the book the McKenzie Method. One exercise on forward flexion has seemed to bring her relief~ for a period of 5 straight hours ! 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽 She is extremely grateful and will continue practicing what she's learned. I'm SO excited for her, and I am sincerely thankful for you and your suggestions. 💙

[@Rls1020]

Love your channel! You guys are great. I wanted to ask you a question: Is it possible to elevate your feet too much? I take this upside-down laundry basket and put it under my work station and keep my legs elevated for even hours. It seems to reduce the fluid build-up in my legs, but I've noticed that my hip and upper leg (particularly my left one) really starts to hurt a lot - particularly when I subsequently do a lot of walking.

[@dino0228]

Would you include crossing your legs? I think it causes some of my hip pain, but it’s so hard to stop!

[@alcg3981]

"We" were told for years that a correct sitting position at desk, etc. is knees higher than hips. So which is correct .. Or have recommendations changed? Thank you.

What should I do if both hips hurt at night? It started 8 years ago during pregnancy. I was told it was normal because of hormones and my body’s preparation for giving birth. But it never went away. I still use a pillow between my legs but I wake up and need to flip over every few hours because when one hip stops hurting the other one starts. It feels sore but not to the touch. It’s dull, not sharp. I have a full range of motion. It doesn’t hurt to walk. It’s when I rest/sleep/lounge. I tried sleeping on soft and hard beds. I try to keep my knees aligned. But sometimes the pain is so strong I have trouble falling back asleep. Should I strengthen the muscles around the joint? I’m in my 30s. This doesn’t feel normal.

Every so often I have a pt who just does not believe me that a cane should be held in the opposite of their injured/weak leg. I show them how they will look walking with the cane in either hand, stable and in control like Mr. Peanut or limping and showing their age like a pirate. They usually choose Mr. Peanut. And I totally agree with the House reference. I guess the writers wanted to show a pronounce limp, or they were just clueless about how to actually use a cane properly.

[@ednajankowski7058]

Have you tried chiropractor. There is a wonderful doctor in Fairfax Virginia. He treated me for 30 years before I moved away. The trick is to go to them consistently. And go back when you first feel your hip go out. It is expensive. Not covered by insurance and so worthwhile. Don't give in to surgery until you try chiropractor treatments and keep up the exercises even if you can only do the easy ones.

What you eat has more to do with the causes of hip pain.....cow dairy, gluten, nuts, seeds, most sugars....get all of those out of your diet completely for at least 2 weeks, and see if it makes a difference. My hip only hurts now when I eat something I shouldn't have.

Very true, foods can make arthritis worse.

[@mysharona6754]

I wish it worked for me..I started removing processed foods and began eating much better to help me lose weight to try to help my hip pain. Exercise, improved diet and weight loss didn't help. I decided to be very strict with my diet for a six week very clean anti inflammatory diet specifically to see if would help alleviate pain. I also drank, still do drink, 3-5 litres of water a day. I feel good overall and my skin looks great, I leaned out , but the pain is still the same. But if I eat inflammatory foods I definitely feel the difference in other ways like my hands feel stiff and tight and my stomach hurts etc
