Al-Tayyar, who explored how to engineer a backpack that reduces strain, improves posture, and enhances comfort for users across different age groups and physical demands.From design theory to real-world testing, we explore how their ergonomic innovations aim to minimize the musculoskeletal risks associated with traditional backpacks—especially relevant for students, commuters, and healthcare professionals alike. Whether you're a physical therapist, strength coach, or simply someone tired of shoulder pain, this is one episode you won't want to miss.

Scoliosis impacts far more people than we realize. Dr. Tony Nalda explains the different sources of scoliosis that impact both children and adults. The population of people with scoliosis increases as age increases, that means many of us will be facing scoliosis in the future if not already living with it.Dr. Nalda explains the options we have to stop the curvature from increasing and even reducing the degree of the curve. We also discuss the traditional diagnosis and treatment options most doctors are operating under and why these options need to change to help prevent surgery. This is important because one small change could be significant in our level of pain we experience but not necessarily produce a degree of curve for traditional treatment. Dr. Tony Nalda is the leader of the Scoliosis Reduction Center®. In addition to being a chiropractor, Dr. Nalda holds an Intensive Care Certification from CLEAR Institute, a leading scoliosis educational and certification center. He was also one of the very first doctors to receive World Masters Certification from ISICO, a certification that specializes in the conservative treatment and management of scoliosis. Dr. Nalda also holds certifications with SEAS (Scientific Exercise Approach to Scoliosis Accreditation Program), Gomez Orthodics, Chiropractic Biophysics, ScoliBrace, A Corrective 3D Scoliosis Bracing System, DMX (Digital Motion Xray), and Scolibalance® certification from ScoliCare®.Learn more at www.scoliosisreductioncenter.com and follow on Facebook @ScoliosisReductionCenter and YouTube @ScoliosisReductionCenter.

The human body has traits that evolved at different times, from 1.5 billion to 2 million years ago, each bringing health benefits and risks. Multicellularity enabled organs and cancer. The immune system defends us but can cause inflammation. Breastfeeding supports infant health but relates to breast cancer risk. Menstruation and invasive placentas improved reproduction but led to pain and cancer risks. Human-specific traits like bipedalism and aging brought new issues like back pain and childbirth problems. Hair loss and sweat glands helped us stay cool but increased skin cancer risk. Our hunter-gatherer past shaped our microbiome and health, but also made us prone to modern diseases from lifestyle changes.

Short N Sweet! This month's Clinical Corner Article covers a case study of a patient presenting with rotator cuff issues. After months of pain and many rounds of cortisone injections, she finally decided to visit a PT. Eight weeks of treatment went by with her pain not resolving, and her shoulder still "feeling stuck". This lead her PT to refer her on to getting an MRI- which eventually uncovered an aneurysmal bone cyst! This case is a great example to show patients they should not wait to be treated for their pain, and how the healthcare system can work together to find the answers to your issues to get you back to pain-free living!Read the article here: https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/josptcases.2022.10897Did you know that you don't need a doctor's prescription to receive physical therapy?

“Your back will never get better.”That's what a chiropractor told Cam at age 21 — just months after a deadlift left him in debilitating pain.It was a moment that could have ended his active lifestyle, confidence, and future.Instead, it became the starting point of something much bigger.In this special co-founder origin episode, Andrew and Cam sit down for an honest, unfiltered conversation about the pain that brought them together, the flaws in traditional care models, and the fire that fueled the creation of Whealth — a company that's now helped thousands take their health back into their own hands.Cam shares the full arc of his journey:What it was like to lose his identity as a college athlete to chronic back painThe confusion, fear, and isolation of navigating MRIs, sciatica, and endless failed treatmentsHow damaging practitioner language (“you'll never lift again”) nearly sealed his fateWhy a physical therapist who didn't fix him still gave him hopeThe moment he found Andrew online and took a leap of faithHow he went from being a client to becoming a coach and eventually co-founderThe episode also reveals the lesser-known backstory of Whealth — including:The behind-the-scenes fallout from Andrew's removal from MoveUHow five passionate people took a risk and built Whealth from zeroThe early struggles of launching a mission-driven business with no money and no audienceWhy Whealth's approach to movement and mindset goes far beyond exercisesWhether you're in pain, in doubt, or in a season of rebuilding, this episode is a reminder that your story isn't over.It might just be beginning.If you've ever felt dismissed, broken, or stuck in pain — you're not alone. This is your reminder: The body can heal. And you're capable of far more than you've been told.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are the commonly used drugs in reducing pain, inflammation, and fever. And the question that rises is whether it is possible to relieve back pain without relying on NSAIDs. And, yes, it is possible to find relief from back pain without relying on NSAIDs. Alternative methods for managing back pain include physical therapy, exercise, stretching, heat or cold treatment, and mindfulness practices like yoga or meditation. In some cases, lifestyle changes such as improving posture, reducing weight, or managing stress can also help alleviate pain. Working with a healthcare practitioner can be very beneficial if the pain is persistent. Home care Home care remedies that can help relieve back pain, including heat and cold therapy, and gentle and low-impact exercises, like swimming and walking, can help strengthen the muscles supporting your spine to improve flexibility. Maintaining a straight posture while sitting and standing and a suitable sleeping position can prevent additional strain on your back. Also, gentle massage on the affected area can reduce muscle tension risks of future injury. Chiropractic Care Chiropractic care includes spinal adjustments by a professional to realign the spine, relieve nerve pressure, and reduce the pain. You can also embrace soft tissue therapy techniques such as massage to help alleviate tension and improve circulation, thus reducing back pain. In addition, chiropractors often provide activities that strengthen muscles to support the spine, enhancing flexibility and promoting better posture. Comprehensive care with movement The simple activities we engage in daily, including walking and stretching, can help with back pain without the need for NSAIDs. The comprehensive therapy combines physical activities to strengthen the core, improve flexibility, and promote proper posture. Such activities include low-impact ones like swimming, walking, and stretching regularly. However, you must be mindful of tai chi and yoga practices to alleviate back strain. ·         Decompression therapy  Using a specialized decompression table, a chiropractor will apply gentle traction to create intervertebral spaces for the compressed disks to retract and ease pressure on the surrounding nerves. Please do not lose this golden opportunity for your long-sought back pain and sciatica relief. Please book an appointment with our chiropractor for the best back pain and sciatica remedies. Long-term use of NSAIDs is not good as such drugs may lead to complications such as gastrointestinal complications, kidney issues, cardiovascular risks such as a surge in the risk of stroke and heart attack, and reduced effectiveness in treating chronic pain. Instead of using NSAIDs for back pain and sciatica relief, you can use physical therapy, proper home and work ergonomics, heat or cold therapies, and lifestyle modification. And if you need more guidance on how you can relieve back pain without NSAIDs and understanding why using NSAIDs long-term is not good, talk to Dr. Jason Jones at our Chiropractic office in Elizabeth City, NC, for assistance!

Dr. Darren is a chiropractor with a deep passion for spinal health. He brings a wealth of clinical experience and a compassionate approach to understanding not just the symptoms, but the story behind the pain.

Coaches Justin, Amanda, and William offer programming, form coaching, diet coaching and more, here!   In this episode of the Bacon Bibles and Barbells podcast, Coaches Justin, Bill, and Amanda discuss the roles of chiropractors and physical therapists in health and rehabilitation. They share personal experiences and insights on the effectiveness of these professionals, emphasizing the importance of individualized care, progressive overload in therapy, and the limitations of chiropractic adjustments. The conversation highlights the need for strength training in recovery and the potential impact of the placebo effect in treatment outcomes. In this conversation, the coaches delve into the complexities of back pain, chiropractic care, and the importance of movement and strength training. They discuss the physiological aspects of back pain, the risks associated with neck manipulation, and the origins of chiropractic practice, highlighting its controversial history. The coaches emphasize the need to identify quackery in chiropractic practices, the significance of movement and strength training in pain management, and the role of massage and physical therapy. They advocate for a holistic approach to health that prioritizes movement and strength over reliance on supplements and chiropractic adjustments.   Takeaways Physical therapists are often utilized for rehab post-injury or surgery. The effectiveness of physical therapy can vary based on the therapist's knowledge and approach. Progressive overload is crucial in physical therapy for effective recovery. Chiropractic adjustments may provide temporary pain relief but do not create lasting changes in spinal alignment. Individual attention from a physical therapist can lead to better outcomes than cookie-cutter approaches. Pain management in physical therapy should not lead to prolonged discomfort post-session. Strength training is essential for long-term injury prevention and recovery. The placebo effect can play a significant role in perceived benefits from chiropractic care. Finding a chiropractor with a sports rehab background may yield better results. Elderly patients often require strength training rather than just range of motion exercises. Chiropractic manipulation can provide neuromuscular facilitation. Most back pain stems from muscle atrophy, particularly in the erectors. Neck manipulation is never appropriate due to associated risks. Chiropractic practice has a controversial history and origins. Identifying quackery in chiropractic practices is crucial for patient safety. Movement and strength training are essential for pain management. Massage therapy can be more beneficial than chiropractic adjustments. Percussion massage can help relax tight muscles effectively. Holistic approaches to health prioritize movement and strength. Lifestyle changes are key to reducing pain and improving overall health.

If you have had to deal with back pain at some point in life, you understand how miserable it can make you feel. If left unattended, back pain can become a chronic issue that can lead to disability and hinder your productivity. Fortunately, dealing with back pain does not always have to be surgical. Below are some affordable and easy-to-do tips you can embrace for non-surgical relief of back pain. Comprehensive Care with Movement Did you know that the simple activities we engage in daily, including walking and stretching, can help with back pain? This comprehensive therapy combines physical activities to strengthen the core, improve flexibility, and promote proper posture. Such activities include low-impact ones like swimming, walking, and stretching regularly. However, you must be mindful of tai chi and yoga practices to alleviate back strain. The main components of comprehensive care with movement to relieve back pain include: Exercises that promote flexibility, such as hip flexors and gentle stretches, facilitate different types of motion. Core strengthening activities include bridges, stability ball exercises, and planks supporting the spine. Activities that correct or improve posture and alignment. Low-impact activities, including regular walking, swimming, and stationary or outdoor cycling. Mindful motion activities like yoga and tai chi enhance flexibility, balance, and relaxation, minimizing stress. Proper lifting techniques, work and home ergonomics, and being aware of standing and sitting posture. While practising comprehensive care with movement, kindly consider starting with gentle activities and gradually progressing as you monitor pain and adjust accordingly. Additionally, do not forget to consult your doctor or therapist before undertaking any new activity. Home Care Back pain relief doesn't have to be complicated because many home remedies can help. Home care activities for back pain relief include: Heat and cold packs are applied to the affected area during the first 48 to 72 hours to minimize inflammation and relax muscles. Exercises that move the muscles include walking, swimming, aerobics, strength training, stretching, and swimming. Core strengthening and stabilization activities and back stretches to uphold the spine and promote flexibility. Practising good posture by ensuring that the shoulders are relaxed and the back is straight. Simple yoga alleviates pain, promotes mobility, and enhances physical and mental functioning. You could also try other home remedies such as pilates, tai chi, aerobics, rest, and ergonomics. Always consult a chiropractor in case of severe and persistent back pain with accompanying symptoms like numbness, body weakness, and tingling. Chiropractic Therapy Is back pain giving you sleepless nights and irritation? Worry no more, as this is good news for you. Chiropractic therapy is effective in using spinal manipulation or adjustments to alleviate pain and irritation and realign the spine. A good chiropractor would advise using this method alongside lifestyle modification and posture correction. Decompression Therapy Are you experiencing back pain associated with health conditions such as spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, or herniated discs? There is hope for you. All you need is for the doctor to use a specialized traction table to slowly stretch your spine and create negative pressure within the discs. Need more support! Remember, seeking professional guidance is okay; everyone needs a helping hand occasionally. If you would like a more detailed explanation of how to relieve back pain without surgery, we recommend talking to Dr. Jason Jones at our Chiropractic office in Elizabeth City, NC.

With over 930k followers on Instagram and a YouTube channel of over 618k subscribers, his content helps those who are frustrated by outdated advice and unnecessary treatments. He stands out in the world of chiropractic care—not only as the visionary behind the #1 online low-back program but also as the advocate who challenges the notion that you need a doctor to heal your back.  As a former competitive athlete, Grant's career was derailed by persistent back pain and ineffective treatment. Determined to find a better way, he turned his struggles into a mission, combining his medical expertise with innovative strategies to challenge the flawed “sick care” system.  Today, his program has impacted lives across the globe, demonstrating that your spine is resilient, your body is capable, and recovery is entirely within your reach. Here are some of the things we talked about in today's show:    ·      The notion that back pain requires medication and rest is false. ·      Fear of movement can lead to chronic pain and disability. ·      Gradual exposure to movement is essential for recovery. Perfect posture is not necessary; movement is more important. ·      Back pain is influenced by multiple factors, including emotional and social aspects. A holistic approach to back pain considers emotional and psychological factors. ·      Understanding the correlation between stress and physical pain is crucial. ·      Sciatica is often misunderstood as just leg pain, but it originates from the back. ·      Stretching a sensitive nerve can worsen sciatica symptoms. ·      Individualized treatment plans are essential for effective pain management. ·      There is no one-size-fits-all solution for sciatica; each case is unique. ·      Movement is vital for spinal health and pain relief. ·      Pain does not always indicate tissue damage; understanding this can change perceptions. ·      Back cracking is generally harmless and can be done if it feels good.   Brian's website: www.briankeanefitness.com Enjoying the podcast?
