Dr. Joe Damiani - TMJ, Head & Neck Specialist on Instagram: "Comment the word ‘SPINE’ on this video if you need more help fixing neck pain and I’ll help you out. Do you experience, persistent neck pain, and no matter what types of treatments you do it never seems to go away? Well, treating the source of the pain is what I always recommend first, but if you feel like it keeps coming back, then there’s probably a movement pattern in your body, or part of the foundation around the neck that puts you in a position that sets you up for failure. You just continuously forces your neck into the wrong position again and you can’t win. It’s like if your house keeps falling over at some point, you have to look at the foundation. It’s important to keep in mind that there’s a flexibility component
kasey | the nervous system OT on Instagram: "Proper hip alignment!! It impacts nervous system regulation by reducing pressure on nerves, improving overall body mechanics, and promoting better communication between the brain and body. The nervous system is interconnected, and a misalignment in one area can affect the entire system, potentially influencing the autonomic nervous system (responsible for involuntary functions like heart rate and digestion). When the spine is misaligned it can restrict the ability of the ribcage to expand and contract properly. This can lead to shallow, rapid breathing patterns. Aligning the pelvis and spine can improve breathing efficiency. Proper spinal and pelvic alignment can improve the function of the vagus nerve, which plays a role in gut health, moo

Pain Academy on Instagram: "Relax your hips, pelvis, and spine… by doing NOTHING. This simple self-rescue position helps your body reset without stretching or forcing movement. Instead of tugging on tight hip flexors, let gravity do the work. One leg on a chair, the other straight against the wall—over 5-15 minutes, your hip flexor naturally relaxes, setting off a chain reaction that releases the pelvis, lower back, mid-back, and even the neck. This isn’t just a stretch—it’s a full-body reset. Try it and feel the difference. 🔥 Want to move better and reduce pain?

Dr. Wes Hendricks on Instagram: "Before just randomly picking the top 5 best exercises for hip or back pain It would make WAAAAYYY more sense to assess yourself Those best exercises that went viral can be great for one type of pain but then make another type 10x’s worse. Here is one test of many that I use when assessing back and hip pain. If you failed these two tests here’s what you can be doing: Bench Couch Stretch - If the quads are tight it will resist knee flexion (heel to your butt) and hip extension (leg behind you). That’s why we are starting with this stretch. If this muscle is tight, it can make it harder to hit those deeper hip flexor muscles Half Kneeling Eccentrics - With a lot of hip flexor stretches, people tend to overextend their lumbar spine.
