  • How I avoided thumb surgery when all the doctors said I need it! | Episode 91
    Juanita is a client like many of our clients. She tried lots of treatments and went to lots of doctors to try to get some sort of resolution for her pain.
    She has had neck pain for 10 years. She has been going to a great massage therapist to manage it, but her neck pain never went away.
    She then started to get some elbow pain about 1 year ago. Nothing seemed to help.
    Then she started to get thumb pain and started to get trigger finger. She had pain down her arm, she could not move her thumb due to weakness and she had a trigger finger that developed on top of that..
    With all those symptoms and the progression, no doctor wanted to know the whole story. They only focused on her trigger finger and all of them said she needed to have surgery..
    Thankfully she was referred to our office.
    Now when she came in, her pain patterns were the same as the nerve pattern of a C6 compression in her neck.
    Doctors were not interested in that.. They did not want to put the pieces of the puzzle together..
    Within the first treatment her thumb regained its strength, and her pain was about 70% better. We still had work to do on her thumb and elbow due to the constant pain in those locations,, but her symptoms were coming from her neck!! She would NOT have gotten resolution if she had thumb surgery.
    In fact, she probably would have been worse!
    Check out her story to learn more.. And learn what we did to help her get the results to get her life back without surgery!

  • Massage vs Myofascial Massage- what is the difference? | Episode 90
    Not all massages are the same. You can have different massages that can affect you in completely different ways. The key like anything else is getting to the source of the problem.
    I always say tissue tightness is usually a symptom. You have to get to why it is tight. When you look at the musculoskeletal system you will always see patterns. But when you have myofascial issues, this is a completely different system. The fascia is thin connective tissue that surrounds the muscles in sections. So you can have tightness, swelling, pain in a completely different area from where the tightness is located.
    Lisa is a physical therapist that specializes in myofascial treatments. We have worked together for 18 years. She has spent years studying this approach to therapy.
    The other thing you will notice is that our tissues can hold emotions and part of myofascial treatments is helping you release the emotions from your tissues.
    Want to learn more?
    Check out this podcast to learn more from Lisa on what the difference is between Massage and Myofascial massage.

  • Diving deep into Autoimmune conditions and Why no one seems to get results! Episode 88
    One way we feel pain as well as having other issues that no healthcare seems to figure is when we have autoimmune conditions. Now you may not know you have any kind of autoimmune problems, but when the body is out of balance you just know something is off.
    You may notice lots of bloating, difficulty sleeping, weight gain in the mid section that you can not get rid of, fatigue, as well as other common symptoms.
    You go to a doctor and they do some testing and everything comes back normal. But you want answers and you are never given answers other than here is a pill for this symptom or you are told you are fine.
    At our office we can tell when something is out of balance and it is the beginning stage of an autoimmune condition.
    How, you ask?
    Because there are patterns to orthopedic issues. And when we can not find a pattern or reproduce your pain in any way, we start asking more questions..
    Want to learn more about this topic and learn why your testing comes back normal.. then check out this podcast..
    If you want to dive in even deeper with this topic, check out our next event happening this month (Jan 2023). We are speaking with Dr. Mike Smith who specializes in this area and getting the body back in balance. He specializes in getting your hormones back in balance naturally.

  • What is the fastest way to cure plantar fasciitis? | Episode 87
    Are you suffering with Plantar fasciitis? The fastest way to get resolution is to get to the source of the problem. If you treat a symptom, then it will continue to have problems.
    There are two areas that I see are missed with treatment of plantar fasciitis. Once without checking the mobility of the ankle. This can mimic a plantar fasciitis. If this is missed, you will have years of problems without getting full resolution.
    The other piece that is missed is doing a progressive strengthening program to get you back to full activity..

  • Meet Cory! Our New Physical Therapist joining the mPower Team
    We have a new Physical therapist. Check out this episode to learn more about Cory and how she made her way to Dallas. Why she became a physical therapist and what brought her to our clinic!
    Just like many other physical therapists, with reimbursement going down in clinics and expenses going up, that means you have to see more patients in an hour to make enough money to cover all the expenses! It is exhausting and it is hurting the physical therapy industry because many clients do not get full resolution with other physical therapy clinics! It takes time to sit down and have a conversation to understand what is going on to help age to the source of the problem. A 10 min conversation does not cut it!
    So like many physical therapists, they love our model of having time to spend with clients to truly help them, but at the same time being able to go home not exhausted to have a life outside of work.
    What to learn more about our practice?

  • Why does my pain return after a massage? | Episode 83
    We get this question all the time… I go and get a massage for my neck pain, or back pain, or hip pain and it feels good (in a painful way). I feel better after the massage, but my pain returns within hours to days later. Why does this happen?
