Postpartum Back Pain: The straw that broke the mama’s back

Written by Deanna Camilo PT, DPT, OCS, FAAOMPT When I was pregnant, I wanted to do everything possible to prepare for the arrival of my little one.  I read the popular pregnancy and baby books, combined that information with my background in physical therapy, and thought that I was ready for anything that parenthood could throw at me.  The seasoned parents are likely laughing out loud right now.   No amount of reading can prepare you for the joys, surprises, and stresses of becoming a parent!  That being said, as a physical therapist, I believe the literature could have done a MUCH better job of warning me about the aches and pains related to caring for an infant.  In this first…

COMMON REASONS WHY YOU MIGHT HAVE MORE PAIN DURING THESE PANDEMIC TIMES

Written by Brian Yee PT, DPT, MPhty, OCS, FAAOMPT   “Why is my back and neck more sore when I am doing less while I stay at home and social distance?”  “I have never worked so hard in my life trying to make my business survive, take care of my kids as they are doing virtual homeschool, and just adjust to the every daily changing things that seem to happen!

TeleHealth: The New (Temporary) Norm

Written by Stephanie Lievense, PT, DPT, OCS In this day and age, it is not uncommon to work virtually. With today’s technology, we can work from just about anywhere. When I say “we,” though, I don’t include myself or most physical therapists. Some physical therapists have moved into more administrative roles, which means that they are involved in little to no direct patient care. However, most of us depend on treating our patients in person. As doctors of physical therapy, we rely quite heavily on our hands to give us the information that we need when treating a patient. Yes, the subjective information and observations are crucial, but our hands can give us important clues such as a joint restriction…

More Isn’t Always Better

Written by Stephanie Lievense, PT, DPT, OCS Today is my third day working from home since the spread of Coronavirus.

As a result, I have been all over FaceBook and Instagram to both get and give ideas. Here’s what I’ve learned so far: EVERYONE is offering online workouts, cooking classes, crafts, virtual social events, and more! There is SO much to do on the internet! I think it’s great that we are all banding together and trying to fulfill that need for human connection. However, I’ve really been thinking about all of the exercise…
