Hey Brandon, these are great options to have him start with. With many cases of low back pain, implementing soft tissue mobilizations and hip stretches can be really helpful. I'm glad he is feeling better so far!

That's awesome, Brandon. Focusing on phase 1 exercises and one exercise from phase 2 is great strategy, especially when his symptoms are more acute. I think you're probably right about him over training a bit.

Here is a picture from our spring break trip to Kauai last week! We had a great time hiking, swimming and spending time together as a family. My oldest daughter is a freshmen in high school this year, so we're trying to make the most of the time we have left with her before she leaves for college.

Hi Lillian, I’m sorry to hear about your fall and this recent onset of knee pain. In most cases, an injury like this will irritate the patellofemoral joint, which is the joint behind the kneecap. This joint is compressed when bending the knee or when contracting the quads, which likely explains why your symptoms increase when squatting or bending down. While your symptoms are more acute, I would work on simple exercises like heel slides to help get your full flexion mobility back and partial range of motion squats making sure to stop when pain begins. Here is a link for the heel slide exercise.

Hi everyone, I just published a new video on C8 nerve root issues. Compromise of this nerve root will cause pain, numbness and/or tingling in the pinky and ring fingers and inside of the forearm and elbow.
