Thank you Dr. Tom! I get this in my right hip. I have a left sided hemidisc at L5 S1 and sacrolisation. My right SIJ often feels sore but its my left SIJ that used to get jammed. Left hasn't had an issue recently - not since 2021. My right hip clicks whenever I massage out the trigger points in psoas. So I need to strengthen my psoas? It doesn't hurt when it clicks and it only clicks when I do unsupported straight leg raises. So when I'm feet in straps on the Pilates reformer no clicking. Feet out of straps on the mat - clicking. I am 63. 🙏 Caroline

Thank you Dr. Tom for running Office Hours. I just watched this one and will watch the first one asap. As I'm not able to attend live I really appreciate the videos. And really appreciate the people who do attend live and are so willing to share. I learnt so much from this video - thank you all 🙏 Caroline

Thank you for your reply Dr. Tom 😀 No, no dizziness or vertigo but they do have tinnitus which sounds to be at the severe end of the scale. I will ask them about a vestibular physical therapist and if they haven't already seen one recommend they do. Here in Australia we have physiotherapists which I think is a different training to the US physical therapist???

Hello, I am looking for information on hearing loss specifically in relation to neck issues. I have a client who has hearing loss and wears hearing aids in both ears. They've had "all the tests" but none of the tests give any clue what the cause of their hearing loss is. They do report a sore neck for the past 15 years which coincides with the duration of their hearing loss. They haven't been investigated for Eagle Syndrome. And haven't had their tonsils removed. They don't report any trauma to their head or neck. They are 48 years old. They are experiencing loss of confidence. I've tried literature searches but so far haven't found anything "helpful." 🙏 for any assistance, Caroline

I am interested in exercises to close diastasis recti. I haven't specifically looked for it yet so it might already be covered?

Commented on Meniscus Injury

27 Oct 20:59

My client has 3 meniscus tears side by side. She has been told by a surgeon she needs her knee cleaned out. He also said that when they see 3 tears like this the likelihood is that the knee will need to be replaced within in 2-years if its not cleaned out. She is reluctant to have any surgery and wants me to offer her a rehab programme. What are your thoughts. Should I bow out? I don't want to offer her false hope or waste time if surgery is inevitable??? Thanks Tom.
