    Spinal Alignment

    January 27, 2021

    When a healthcare practitioner uses the term “alignment” when it refers to your spine, it can be a bit misleading.  The reason lies in the fact that the prevalence of people seeing chiropractors has grown tremendously in the last few decades.   Twenty-two years ago, when I started in the world of physical therapy, maybe […]

    When to Return to Sports after ACL surgery, A Timeline

    July 2, 2020

    When to Return to Sports after ACL surgery, a timeline I recently read an interesting research report about the recovery timeline after surgery from a ruptured ACL (anterior cruciate ligament).

    Posture and the Eyes

    March 23, 2020

    The old guidelines that recommended that the monitor be placed at eye level were based in part on the belief that the resting position of the eyes (considered to be the most comfortable gaze angle) is 15° below the horizontal (Morgan, Cook, Chapanis, and Lund 1963). New evidence (and some that has been around for […]

    Rotator Cuff Overuse: Tendonitis, Impingement, and eventual Tear

Interestingly, there are several injuries that can happen to the muscle-tendon complex called […]
