Shoulder Impingement and Rotator Cuff Pain

 

 

In the summer months I shared I had some shoulder pain that started due to water aerobics. Well it went away, then returned with vengeance.  After boosting my workouts and taking on a couple new projects, my shoulder is now in pain! I have consulted and need my own therapy for shoulder impingement.

Anatomy: Your shoulder is made of three bones: your upper arm bone (humerous), your ...

Hair Analysis ~ The Wellness Blue Print

My search for wellness began in early 2010, after severe stomach flu. I was feeling pretty tired with the baby routine and my energy levels were very sporadic. It did not help that I had one year of sleepless nights with the two babies, but something was just not right. I was very foggy headed, depressed, fatigued, and the exercises and muscle strengthening I was doing was not changing a thing about my body. I went to my doctor and ...

Could it be Piriformis Syndrome?

During the summer months I see clients that are active and enjoying the outdoor activities such as running and long bicycle rides.  The most common complaint is pain in the back of the hips or buttocks and down the back of the leg. Travelers feel this pain when on airplanes or in cars especially if sitting with wide legs and bent knees. Sometimes it also includes tingles in the leg and foot after sitting for long periods, and a general ...

Skin Purge the Whole Body – Part One

Skin Purge the Whole Body – Part One

Not long ago, I ventured to Glenn Ivy Hot springs to enjoy the pleasures of water, mud, heat, and the total purging experience I have each time. This last visit was the most memorable as I “fully” tried the mud grotto. I mean, I went mud crazy. I put some in my hair, all over my body where I could, and even the bottoms of my feet. The experience was life changing for me and my therapy beliefs.  I dried in the ...

Neck Strain: Causes and Remedies

Neck Strain: Causes and Remedies

We all at some time will experience neck pain. The stiffness of waking up on a foreign bed or the pain in the neck and shoulders after a 4 hour drive to grandma’s are both symptoms of neck strain. Other symptoms can include difficulty moving or rotating the head or neck.  By definition, neck strain is not a serious condition, but the pain and dysfunction it causes can be insignificant.

The Emotional Release in Bodywork

The Emotional Release in Bodywork

Recently I went to Los Angeles to visit family and my aunt treated me to a massage at her favorite Massage Place in Marina Del Ray.  I love this place and Inga was pleasant at first sight. We just connected; if you know what I mean. I could relax with her in conversation and I felt she knew just how I was feeling and probably has dealt with it herself.

During our intake, I described my shoulder issue on the left ...
