Bursitis is one of those conditions that's often brushed aside with a cortisone shot and a pat on the back. But is that really healing—or just a quick way to silence symptoms? In this episode of The Pilates Lounge Podcast, Katie Crane takes a bold look at how the Pilates community can do better for clients by addressing the real root causes of bursitis: poor mechanics, lack of movement variability, and ignoring the body's natural signals. Katie challenges the over-reliance on cortisone injections, unpacks the critical difference between natural and synthetic cortisol, and makes the case for fascia hydration, movement diversity, and listening to pain as valuable feedback. Beyond the physical, she digs into why community and emotional support are just as essential in the healing process. This conversation is part education, part reality check—inviting Pilates professionals to step away from band-aid solutions and lean into the body's wisdom, resilience, and true capacity for recovery. Key Takeaways Healing doesn't come from quick fixes—it comes from addressing root causes. Cortisone injections may shut you up, but they don't set you free. Bursitis is less about “bad luck” and more about mechanics and movement. Pilates offers a powerful path to restore function and resilience. Pain is not the enemy—it's feedback the body needs us to hear. Fascia health depends on hydration and varied movement. Community and emotional support are non-negotiable in recovery. Educated decisions—not shortcuts—lead to lasting change.   Special Offers Just for You! FREE Gift Workshop: Start deepening your practice today!

This week, I talked about my experience with having a lumbar spinal cortisone shot at UConn. Spoiler alert: it was a great experience! Just waiting for it to take full effect, but I already have a lot less overall nerve pain. It’s exciting! Maybe I’ll be back on the bike next weekend!  I talked about the […]

MOVE NOW to Fight Cancer Podcast / DARE TO BE VITAL BOOKFIVE PRIMARY POINTS of this Week's Podcast* Stop injecting cortisone for knee or elbow pain.A newly published MRI study of 210 patients showed that even one cortisone shot accelerated knee-osteoarthritis progression and carried risks such as bone-marrow lesions and rapid joint destruction. Dr. Mishra argues that “doing nothing” is safer than cortisone and recommends a “better biologics flywheel” of weight control, muscle building, and vitamin D optimization instead.* Whole-body vibration (WBV) is a promising muscle- and bone-builder.A meta-analysis of 21 randomized trials (~750 healthy women) found WBV platforms significantly improved lower-body strength and femoral bone density; benefits were greatest with >12 weeks of training at frequencies above 30 Hz, and in post-menopausal women.* Musculoskeletal health underpins long-term vitality.Losing mobility cascades into weight gain, cardiovascular decline, and even cognitive slowdown. Dr. Mishra positions whole-body vibration, strength training, and biologic approaches (muscle, bone, vitamin D) as an “all-in strategy” to safeguard movement capacity and overall life performance.* Interacting with dogs measurably boosts brain health and mood.An EEG study of 30 adults showed activities like playing, grooming, and walking a dog lowered stress markers and heightened relaxation, attention, and creativity, branding dogs as “verified vitality enhancers.”* Weekly action plan—do the right thing because it is right.Inspired by Kant's dictum, the episode's practical call-outs are: skip cortisone, build muscle via whole body vibration and spend time with a dog to spark calm and creativity. Implementing even one of these evidence-based steps moves you toward Dr. Mishra's goal of optimizing vitality and performance “one person at a time.” This is a public episode.

Steve sits down with Tessymol Jose — the inspiring mother of Erica, one of our incredible students — to tell the full, raw story of their college admissions journey.This isn't a sugar-coated success story. It's a front-row seat to the overwhelming pressure, confusion, and heartbreak that so many ambitious students (and their families) experience when they follow the wrong roadmap to college admissions — the "just do more, be more impressive" roadmap that leads straight to burnout.

What if the real test in college admissions isn't the one you think it is?In this episode, we unpack “The Hidden Test”—the one that's not on any syllabus and can't be studied for with flashcards. Drawing from a powerful psychological experiment, wisdom from Ivy League deans Lee Coffin (Dartmouth) and Logan Powell (Brown), and real insights from the admissions process, we reveal how selective colleges are not just looking for the most impressive applicants. They're looking for the ones who live with purpose, character, and impact.You'll learn:Why authenticity beats strategy in college prepHow admissions officers “investigate” your values through your applicationWhy students who stop chasing prestige often stand out the mostHow to align your high school experience with what actually mattersThis episode is a must-listen for students, parents, and educators who want to understand what selective colleges really value—and how to focus on becoming, not just getting in.-----To register for the Ivy League Challenge, visit our websiteTo follow on Instagram:  @TheIvyLeagueChallengeTo join us on our Facebook group for parents

For 35 years, Kandie-Rae suffered from crippling pain caused by 3 cervical disc bulges (C1-C2, C3-C4, C6-C7) and 2 lumbar disc bulges (L4-L5, S1), sciatica, thoracic nerve pain, arm tingling and numbness, and chronic neck pain. This podcast shares how Kandie-Rae became pain free, avoided surgery, and got off all medications at 56 years old - when Doctors told her she would never fix her back. She wasted over $20,000 in the medical system desperately searching for relief, but nothing worked—until the Whealth Limitless Program. Before Whealth, she tried it all: ❌ Chiropractic care – Multiple visits per week, but relief never lasted ❌ Acupuncture – Temporary improvement, but pain always came back ❌ Physiotherapy – Generic exercises that didn't address the root cause ❌ Cortisone injections (2 in her neck) – One provided 3 weeks of relief, the other did nothing ❌ Medications: • Gabapentin – Nerve pain relief that didn't last • Muscle relaxers – Left her feeling groggy with no real improvement • Nerve blockers – Zero long-term results Finally, Doctors told her surgery was her only option (which she did not want to do) For 35 years, she lived in fear, unable to trust her body. She could barely walk, had numbness in her face, arms, and legs, and even experienced pseudo-seizures from the pain. She thought she was out of options—until she found an approach that finally worked... our LIMITLESS PROGRAM. Today, she says she has 0/10 pain in her body... she is off all medications, and stronger than ever. In this episode, Kandie-Rae, 56 years old, shares: ✅ Why everything failed her for 35 years in the medical system ✅ How she healed her disc bulges without surgery ✅ The exact movements and mindset shifts that changed everything ✅ How she got rid of sciatica, nerve pain, and fear around movementIf you're struggling with disc bulges, sciatica, or chronic nerve pain, watch this.

What are topical steroids? Often prescribed for chronic skin conditions, I'll bet you've probably used them at some point during your treatment.Sure, they work quickly, but are they without side effects? To answer that question, we need to talk about glucocorticoids, which are hormones naturally produced by the adrenal glands as part of the stress response.Topical steroids fall under the glucocorticoids category, and due to those who've experienced something called topical steroid withdrawal, some people are described by physicians as “steroid phobic.”While there are serious downsides, glucocorticoids can have some incredible anti-inflammatory effects on various health conditions. That's why it's crucial for us to have a nuanced conversation about this!Dr. Luis Franco joins me to discuss everything you've wanted to know about topical steroids, types of glucocorticoids, and concerns about side effects from using topical steroids.Dr. Luis Franco is a Tenure-Track Investigator at the National Institute of Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS). He was born in Colombia and grew up between Colombia, Brazil, Mexico, and the United States. He attended medical school in Colombia before returning to the United States, initially as a postdoctoral fellow at Duke University. Dr. Franco attended Baylor College of Medicine for specialty training in internal medicine and medical genetics. In 2014, he moved to the National Institute of Health (NIH).In This Episode:What are topical steroids versus glucocorticoids?Are topical steroids + glucocorticoids bad?Cortisone vs cortisol (and glucocorticoids examples by name)Side effects of glucocorticoidsWhat is topical steroid withdrawal?How glucocorticoids modulate your immune systemQuotes“Glucocorticoids exist naturally. They are hormones that are produced by our bodies. And they're produced by this very particular gland that's above our kidneys, that's called the adrenal gland or the suprarenal gland. And so our adrenal glands produce these chemicals called glucocorticoids. And those chemicals have many, many roles in biology and the one that is sort of best understood is that they are part of the stress response.”“I think the side effects that are important to know for topical glucocorticoids are one, something called skin atrophy, which is kind of a thinning of the skin that people notice when they've been applying glucocorticoids for a long time. Some people also notice little, kind of red, blood vessels that come up. These are called telangiectasias. These are like reddish blood vessels that become very visible on the skin of people who have used topical glucocorticoids.”LinksFind Dr. Franco onlineHealthy Skin Show ep. 344: NEW RESEARCH On Topical Steroid Withdrawal Symptoms + TSW Red Skin TriggerTopical Steroids Potency ChartImmune regulation by glucocorticoids can be linked to cell type–dependent transcriptional responsesGlucocorticoid-induced eosinopenia results from CXCR4-dependent bone marrow migration

In today's podcast episode, we are going to look at a condition called gluteal tendinopathy, which is a common cause of lateral hip pain due to an irritation of two of the gluteal tendons (gluteus medius & gluteus minimus).  Previously, this type of pain was thought to be caused by trochanteric bursitis, but more recent research has shown that bursitis only accounts for approximately 20% of these cases (see references below). The majority of lateral hip pain cases are now thought to be due to gluteal tendinopathy or irritation of the gluteal tendons where they attach on the side of the hip (greater trochanter).  Risk factors for developing gluteal tendinopathy include: female gender (4:1 female to male ratio), increased body mass index (BMI), excessive hip adduction during walking/running, prolonged hip flexion (sitting) and weak hip abductors muscles (especially gluteus medius and minimus).  Treatment of this disorder is similar to other tendinopathies in that the focus is on gradually loading and strengthening the gluteal tendons via resistance training exercises that target the hip abductor muscles. These types of exercises not only improve the working capacity of the muscles and their tendons, but also help reduce tendon pain.  My YouTube video below includes a a few exercises that typically help people suffering from gluteal tendinopathy.

I hope the information in this episode was helpful and you feel better equipped to treat gluteal tendinopathy related pain. Besides the YouTube video I linked, my book contains comprehensive programs for the 50 most common orthopedic conditions, including one for gluteal tendinopathy.

I was just on a second opinion call with a runner. He is a triathlete, and he has had a long course of foot trouble. He was diagnosed with a plantar plate injury, but was not getting better.  We figured out some missing pieces of his recovery puzzle and developed a plan of action. Well, he acted on that game plan and turns out he had been misdiagnosed. What he has is a neuroma (not a plantar plate sprain). He went back to his doctor and she then wanted to inject his foot with cortisone, but he had a race coming up. And then he said, “Well, this is the problem. This is why I am calling you again, is that when I saw her, she said you have a neuroma so let's go ahead and inject it with cortisone.” Can I run a race after a corticosteroid injection for a neuroma?  Well, that is a great question and that is what we're talking about today on the Doc On The Run Podcast.

For somepeople there is NO permanent relief. However, what many people―even some in the medical profession―don't realize is that there are sometimes multiple factors involved. The purpose of this teaching is to present some IDEAS that may help in reducing pain significantly OR altogether. Our GOAL is YOUR complete DELIVERANCE, HEALING and FUTURE HEALTH. ________________________________________ HEALING FROM SHOULDER, ARM & HAND PAINOPTIONS FOR RELIEF The normal treatment sequence for shoulder pain is: as follows: 1. Physical Therapy; 2. Cortisone injections; and, 3. Surgery (after MRI analysis) if #1 and #2 above do NOT help. Notice that #1 and #2 above may sometimes be scheduled by a medical practitioner in reverse order OR simultaneously. THE SEVERITY OF CHRONIC PAIN If left unattended―or IF treatment is suspended due to NO relief―chronic pain can escalate, causing depression and anxiety, sleep deprivation, social isolation, and even economic and financial burden. ____________________________________________ Data from the National Center for Health Statistics finds that more than 1 in 10 adults 65 and older say they have pain that limits their life most days, or all the time! ____________________________________________ Pain management in the last 10 years has been disheartening. Efforts at treating chronic pain with medication resuted in opioid abuse; overdoses are now among the leading causes of death for adults age 50 to 70. In this teaching I want to share with you some non-drug options that may help you. PAIN CAN BE MORE THAN PHYSICAL Your body and your emotions both feel pain: especially chronic pain. You can experience emotional, social and psychological damage in addition to physical damage. FIND OUT WHAT IS DRIVING YOUR PAIN Sometimes it is easy to identify. For example house painters who have reached overhead for years may end up with severe shoulder pain. Or certain athletes who do repeated arm movements may exacerbate the situation. In addition to the “area of pain” there MAY be some other “culprits” contributing to the problem. Ask yourself these questions: When did my pain start? Do I feel other part(s) of my body that seem to be connected to the KEY area at times? What causes my pain to increase: sitting, standing, computer use, reclining (i.e., at night), lifting, eating, driving (steering wheel operation)? What makes my pain feel better? (Does it help for long?) Does my pain ever go away? You may find a “co-conspirator” or the actual cause … like I did! YOU CAN TRY THESE STEPS STEP ONE Schedule an appointment with an Orhopedic Surgeon and explain your problem. They may suggest Physical Therapy and/or Cortisone shots. NOTE: Cortisone injections should NOT be taken over three (3) times a year in a single joint [and no more than six (6) times a year in total if in different joints] preferably four (4) months apart IF needed, Any more can cause deterioration of the soft muscle tissue and is NOT advised. Getting too many cortisone shots can cause serious problems like damaged cartilage and bone death. It can also make it harder to manage other conditions such as diabetes. HOW CORTISONE INJECTIONS WORK The goal of a cortisone injection is to improve pain and inflammation. Cortisone does not treat the underlying condition; it only treats the symptoms. Cortisone injections are used to treat many joint problems, including: Bursitis Tendonitis (including shoulder and arm) Trigger finger (can aggravate OR cause shulder pain) Carpal tunnel syndrome Tennis elbow Knee arthritis Many types of overuse injuries NOTICE: You may find that the cortsone shot helps successfully after the first few days BUT in some cases it may start to “wear off” after a couple months; hopefully, it will last longer. Cortisone is a type of steroid hormone that works by decreasing inflammation. Inflammation is the body's normal response to an injury, infection, or disease as a means to heal itself. However, when a condition is persistent and the inflammation is chronic, the symptoms of inflammation—including pain and swelling—can become intolerable. Ultrasound can also be used to guide injections. Ulrasound isn't just a diagnostic tool. When some type of injection treatment is needed, such a corticosteroid shot into a joint, unltrasound can be used to visualize the structure to ensure that the needle is placed in the correct location. Image-guided joint injections also are done with X-Rays or CT Scans. But with ultrasound, there's NO radiation and NO need to inject a contrast dye. STEP TWO Your Physician OR Medical Assistant MAY recommend Physical Therapy. Physical Therapy usually is done two or three times a week. Most insurance plans cover it BUT check with you insurance before starting. You will probably find out IF it is relieving your pain or not after several treatments (if it is beneficial in reducing your pain). The same with the cortisone shots. You should findout immediately (within the first few days IF the shot is reducing your pain. STEP THREE See if other parts of your arm or hand at times feel pain that seems to connect up your arm to the shoulder. I found that my use of the computer mouse was causing some pain in my right hand near the wrist but between my thumb and right index finger. I went to an Orthopedic Surgeon and had an Ultra Sound of my right hand. Musculoskeletal ultrasound can help to diagnose a range of injuries and chronic conditions, including tendonitis, bursitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, rotator cuff tears, joint problems, and masses such as tumors or cysts. The ultrasound showed that the cushion between my right thumb and index finger had competely eroded. Years of texting plus hours a day operating keyboard and mouse on computers eroded the cushion between my right thumb and index finger. [I have several social media sites plus large websites and large podcast websites.] I got a shot of cortisone near my right thumb plus purchased a MetaGrip (photo below) produced by HealthLab which the doctor recommended. Immediately I noticed a difference. Then I started to remember―and recall―that in the past operating the mouse would send pain up my arm and to my shouder. I go to the gym two or three times a week plus lift at home and use strength bands plus cardio. I have NOT had a pain in weeks, even after working out at the gym with heavy weights. Only once did I sense some slight discomfort in one side of my neck due to heavy curling exercises with probably too heavy of weights but it went away. On my last visit to the Specialist (Orthopedic Surgeon who was giving me advice for the terrible pain in my shoulder) I asked him, “Is there anything I can take to relieve OR heal inflammation in my shoulder?” He said, “Yes, Tumeric.” I started taking Tumeric Curcumin right away. Immediately I noticed a profound affect: NO PAIN. MY TESTIMONY Check with your medical advisor and try Tumeric Curcumin Herbal Supplement and see IF it provides healthy imflammatory response. I have used it successfully. I experienced such terrible shoulder pain. It would keep me awake at night, at times causing me to cry. Even in the daytime, sometmes liftng a light weight small plastic cup of water would cause me such severe pain that I would cry out. Or when driving, just lifting my arm to turn the steering wheel slightly would cause me to cry out. After trying physical therapy and cortisone treaments I got serious about seeking God for the cause of my chronic pain. The physical therapy did NOT seem to help AND the cortisone shots were only helpting reduce pain for two months at the most. What was the problem? WHEN and HOW did it start? Then I got serious about seeking GOD for healing. Of course I had prayed before the shots and the physical therapy BUT figured I would jusr pray and go to a specialist. But when the pain continued to be chronic and affect my emotions AND my life style I then decided to get serious about asking God for help. Especially when I realized that this was NOT a little thing that was going away with normal treatments. I did NOT want to have it the rest of my life! Through prayer―and with several friends praying―I was healed permanently by God. It doesn't matter HOW God works … just so He works. One of God's Names is YHWH Rapha: the LORD who heals.” PRAY THIS PRAYER “Father in Heaven, I ask you to heal me of all pain. I don't care HOW you work, just so you work. I am really hurting and I need your help. Your name is YHWH Rapha: the LORD who heals. If you want me to use any physical means to assist my healing please direct me. I am listening to you. Lead me by your Holy Spirit. I ask you to forgive my sins. I ask Your Son, Yeshua―Jesus the Messiah―to save me and to take over my life. Please help me to live for you here on earth, and take me to Heaven when I die.” If you prayed the prayer above, God heard you. You are now on your way to Heaven, and the God who HEALS is your Father. Honor Him … and He will honor you!

Dr. Amy West, a Sports Medicine Physiatrist, is at the forefront of a paradigm shift in understanding the root causes of joint pain, tendon issues, and other musculoskeletal problems. Sponsored Message: Support your Intermittent Fasting lifestyle with the Berberine Fasting Accelerator by MYOXCIENCE: https://bit.ly/berberine-fasting-accelerator Save with code podcast at checkout Link to Video Interview, Research and Show Notes: https://bit.ly/3U5RIaS Show Notes: 02:00 CrossFit trains all three energy pathways: glycolytic, anaerobic, and aerobic. It is based on function. Physiatry and CrossFit focus on function and living better. 08:00 Metabolic health impacts recovery, injury propensity, pain levels and physical function. Leptin worsens osteoarthritis and pain issues. 12:15 Osteoarthritis is from the dysfunction of chondrocytes within the joint from inflammation and fragility of cartilage within the joint. Metabolic disease causes a downward spiral. There is more inflammation and more cartilage damage and more boney hypertrophy. 14:00 Trigger finger is often a first sign of metabolic disease. Tendons are also impacted by the inflammation of metabolic disease. Healing process is impacted by the chronic inflammation of metabolic disease. 14:54 Bone and bone density are impacted inflammation. This can appear as stress fractures. Treat the fracture and the reason why. 17:00 Hemoglobin A1C is a marker of overall glycation in the body. Non-painful things become painful with increased glycation. 17:30 The burden of age-related changes is dependent upon your metabolic state and physical wellbeing. 96% of American adults have some sort of metabolic dysfunction, making them predisposed to accelerated aging and physical decline. 23:00 Time is a major reason for not exercising. Short 20-minute bouts of more intense exercise are easier to fit in and you get the same metabolic benefits in a shorter time. 23:40 Functional movement training increases strength and supports life functions. It uses multiple joints and practices coordination. 24:30 Heavy resistance training induces the benefits of bone density and muscle integrity. 24:45 Osteosarcopenic obesity: as you gain weight, you lose muscle mass and bone. 26:00 Weakened tendons, tendonitis, and fibrosis are often a result of chronic inflammation from metabolic dysfunction like diabetes. Arthritis is the leading cause of disability in the US. 27:25 Cortisone is a potent anti-inflammatory that brings short-term pain relief. It can raise blood sugar. Repeated cortisone injections can further degrade cartilage, worsening arthritis. You can build up a tolerance to it. 29:00 Hormones affect joint pain. Menopausal decreased estrogen levels correlate to increased joint pain. 29:40 Turmeric, omega 3s, vitamin D anti-inflammatory effects can be effective in a person with a small amount of inflammation. 31:00 PRP can be beneficial in the right patient with mild arthritis or chronic tendinopathy. It is only as good as whatever is attached to it. PRP efficacy depends upon your metabolic health. 34:10 Athletes have more muscle mass around the joints making the joint more functional and eases the load bearing on the joint. Muscle secretes myokines, which affect pain perception. 34:50 Chronic inflammation from metabolic disease around your joints can affect levels of inflammation and how the inflammation is received by your brain. It can affect brain serotonin signaling. 36:00 Low carb diets produce less leptin signaling which reduces pain and inflammation signaling. 39:50 Dr. West prioritizes protein. Traditional medicine protein recommendations are just enough to keep you alive. Protein helps with satiety and powers workout gains. 41:25 Animal protein, over plant protein, can help you feel stronger. It is challenging to get enough plant protein without eating a lot of carbs. Chronic vegan/vegetarian dieting can cause collagen and bone breakdown. 50:30 Eccentric loading of the Achilles tendon can help build capacity and be more effective than chronic stretching. Tight hamstrings can be addressed with hip extension, pelvic tilting, and hip adduction. 55:25 There can be some risk to doing isolated heavy bicep work. You can develop bicep tendonitis. Over time, it can result in rupture of the bicep tendon. 58:36 Shoulder: Drill down on technique before adding load or intensity. 01:00:10 Hanging is important for grip strength and being able to manage your own body load. 01:01:10 Deadlift/hip hinge can be done using a platform to limit range of motion to maintain form. Push with your legs rather than pulling with your back. 01:02:30 Have a physical biomarker. Do an annual measure of functional movement or movements to track your strength and fitness, along with your labs. Continue to improve. Physical goals are important. 01:06:30 Coca Cola/Gatorade has invested heavily in healthcare, exercise science and exercise guidelines. Fitness professionals are pressured not to make nutritional recommendations. Coca Cola is involved in the American Cancer Society and American College of Cardiology.

I was just at the International Foot & Ankle foundation meeting in Lake Tahoe listening to a lecture given by a Professor of Biomechanics and Podiatric Medicine at Barry University. He said that a cortisone injection can be used as a "stop gap treatment" in heel pain caused by plantar fasciitis.  The idea is that some runners may need pain relief sooner than would normally be expected. It is true that corticosteroid injections can reduce the inflammation in and around the plantar fascia and quickly reduce pain.  When I had "normal practice" with "normal patients," I used to treat plantar fasciitis with corticosteroid injections pretty much daily.  But I almost never do plantar fascia cortisone injections now. Can a corticosteroid injection serve as a stop gap for runners with heel pain?  That's what we're talking about today on the Doc On The Run Podcast.

When most people begin to prepare for college, they ask the same question as everyone else; "what is more/most impressive to the admissions officers?"And that seems to make sense, until senior year comes along, they submit their applications, and they finally realize that 30,000+ high schools all had ambitious students trying to do the most impressive things, and that means that tens of thousands of applications will all look very similar. So paradoxically, you work harder than everyone else, only to put together an application that looks like so many others-- a boring application. Instead, follow this strategy, based on your core values.-----To register for the Ivy League Challenge, visit our website.To follow on Instagram:  @TheIvyLeagueChallengeTo join us on our Facebook group for parents:Or schedule a meeting with Steve here

I was just on a call with a runner who has had this condition called "hallux rigidus."  and it's where your big toe joint starts to get stiff, becomes rigid, and it doesn't move as much.   Hallux rigidus is a progressive condition, especially if you continue to irritate the joint. You can damage the joint cartilage. The stiffer the big toe joint gets, the more pressure on the cartilage when the big toe is trying to fight that stiffness. Sometimes that movement hurts.   He was asking me about the options on different injections.   What are the risks between an injection like a PRP or platelet rich plasma injection versus something like a cortisone injection when you have hallux rigidus?    Well, that's what we're talking about today on the Doc On The Run Podcast.
