Pain on the outside of the knee that also has a snapping sensation could be Iliotibial Band Syndrome (ITB syndrome). Recognizing when you need to rest or when you can push through is important as a runner and tissue recovery.

Symptoms are variable and can range from nothing at all, to having a significant impact of daily life.

Joint health as we age is often not considered until pain starts somewhere or stiffness at a joint. We are too busy with work, kids the schedule to realize our body is changing inside, muscles could be stiffening slowly losing flexibility. Our bones could be losing cells quicker than our body is replenishing them, silently leading to osteoporosis. These changes happen throughout our lifespan, a daily internal working we rarely consider until it limits something we want to do. --------- Each podcast is a part of The How to Move Without Pain Programs To learn more about how The How to Move Without Pain Programs can help you #1: Lower your pain and get back to your life #2: Have a deeper understanding of your body, trusting yourself to know which exercises to do and how to do them to strengthen your muscles and joints #3: Have the confidence to know what you can do on your own, and when to see a specialist - empowering you to help yourself Go to HowtoMoveWithoutPain.com Sick of imagining what it would be like to get your work done without the headaches and neck pain?

Making healthy habits that you will stick with is possible. Trying something new is pretty easy, but changing it into a habit is difficult. And making it a change for life that is an automatic part of your day or week takes consistency, work and conscious effort to achieve. Studies show it takes anywhere from 18 to 254 days for a person to form a new habit and an average of 66 days for a new behavior to become automatic behavior. Which when you think about it is an amazing amount of time to make a permanent change, since humans are creatures of habit. _______________ Each podcast is a part of The How to Move Without Pain Programs To learn more about how The How to Move Without Pain Programs can help you #1: Lower your pain and get back to your life #2: Have a deeper understanding of your body, trusting yourself to know which exercises to do and how to do them to strengthen your muscles and joints #3: Have the confidence to know what you can do on your own, and when to see a specialist - empowering you to help yourself Go to HowtoMoveWithoutPain.com Sick of imagining what it would be like to get your work done without the headaches and neck pain?

Not understanding your pain and where it's coming from is holding you back from lowering your pain and taking control of your life. Every day I meet people who want to know why they hurt and what THEY CAN DO about their pain. They are in pain and can't get it to go away. They are frustrated that they don’t know why the pain even started.

Frozen shoulder typically begins gradually but then progresses until you are unable to use your arm at all or make any movements without pain or difficulty. Painful and prolonged syndrome of frozen shoulder. Although women are more susceptible, anyone can develop a frozen shoulder, and having a frozen shoulder in one arm significantly increases that chance of developing a frozen shoulder on the opposite side. There are three main goals of treatment: - Reduce pain and stiffness: The shoulder should be rested and free from painful movements, especially when it is cold or wet. - Strengthen the muscles around the shoulder: Gentle exercises should be performed on a daily basis to strengthen all of the muscles around your shoulder, including your chest, back, and neck muscles. - Improve the range of motion of the shoulder: This takes time and persistence to return the mobility of the shoulder. Here are 7 ways to get started with treating your frozen shoulder at home.
A torn meniscus is one of the most common knee injuries. The meniscus, especially the medial (inside) is prone to injury when a forceful twisting motion occurs at the knee, especially if you are standing on it when the twist occurs. That’s why meniscus is commonly torn during sports, while walking on ice or in the rain, or other activities like skiing, rollerskating, or hiking over rocks.
Pain around or near joints can begin for many different reasons: overuse, repetitive activities, tendon irritation, poor joint mechanics, trauma. Pain near the joint also can involve many different structures, like, musculotendinous junctions, muscle belly strain, and bursa to name a few. Hip bursitis is the inflammation of the bursae at a specific joint. Most commonly symptomatic at the shoulder, hip, knee, heel, and elbow. Research has found each year, at least 1 out of 10,000 people develop bursitis at the knees or elbows alone. Often bursitis can resolve on its own in a few weeks through activity modifications that limit the provocation of pain and inflammation. Knowing the signs, symptoms and what you can do about will help alleviate long standing pain, joint irritation and decreased ability to do the activities you love.
It’s not unusual to hear cracks, pops, or crunches from knees, especially when getting up from a chair, walking downstairs, or getting out of the car. The noise we hear is called crepitus, and can happen at any joint; but the knees, ankles, and fingers are most common. The crunching noise can also sometimes be felt by putting your hand over your knee. Knee crepitus can happen at any age, yet it does become more frequent as we age. Understanding what it is and how to recognize is beneficial so you know what to do when it happens to you. --------------- Each podcast is a part of The How to Move Without Pain Programs To learn more about how The How to Move Without Pain Programs can help you #1: Lower your pain and get back to your life #2: Have a deeper understanding of your body, trusting yourself to know which exercises to do and how to do them to strengthen your muscles and joints #3: Have the confidence to know what you can do on your own, and when to see a specialist - empowering you to help yourself Go to HowtoMoveWithoutPain.com Sick of imagining what it would be like to get your work done without the headaches and neck pain?

Osteoarthritis is a very common joint disease affecting the joint cartilage that is between the bones. Pain and stiffness in and around the joint and also swelling are common symptoms with osteoarthritis. Commonly people will report more pain and stiffness as the storm is approaching, rather than when the storm is actually present. Researchers relate this phenomenon to the barometric pressure change that occurs when a storm is rolling into an area. So what in our joints are telling us a storm is coming and what can we do? _____________________ Each podcast is a part of The How to Move Without Pain Programs To learn more about how The How to Move Without Pain Programs can help you #1: Lower your pain and get back to your life #2: Have a deeper understanding of your body, trusting yourself to know which exercises to do and how to do them to strengthen your muscles and joints #3: Have the confidence to know what you can do on your own, and when to see a specialist - empowering you to help yourself.

Ever put on a shirt and feel a crunch in your shoulder or even worse a really sharp pain? that crunch was most likely your humeral head (the round top part of your arm bone) and your acromion (the top of the shoulder you can feel) coming too close together and rubbing against each other. It use to be called impingement, but now it’s more often referred to as subacromial pain syndrome - big words to say the space between your humeral head and acromion are inflamed, causing you pain, and maybe shoulder stiffness. ---------------------- Each podcast is a part of The How to Move Without Pain Programs To learn more about how The How to Move Without Pain Programs can help you #1: Lower your pain and get back to your life #2: Have a deeper understanding of your body, trusting yourself to know which exercises to do and how to do them to strengthen your muscles and joints #3: Have the confidence to know what you can do on your own, and when to see a specialist - empowering you to help yourself Go to HowtoMoveWithoutPain.com Sick of imagining what it would be like to get your work done without the headaches and neck pain?
