TIGHTS HIPS? TRY THE INCLINE PIGEON STRETCH
Просмотров 1,3 тыс.11 месяцев назад
Traditional pigeon pose in yoga is performed on the floor and is difficult for some people due to knee pain and mobility issues in the knee and hip. Using the incline bench, the knee can be supported, taking pressure off the knee and making this an easier movement on the hip. This standing position also makes it easier to load your bodyweight into the stretch deeper. As you gain better mobility...

In this video, Dr. Fontaine discusses some of the basics in anatomy, such as how and why low back sprains occur.

Tight Neck, Do This!

Let's face it: humans are not engineered to be on the computer or a smart device all day. The modern human suffers from a forward head posture, rounded shoulders, and a tight mid back locked into flexion (forward posture), leading to neck tension, headaches, neck pain, shoulder pain and mobility issues, difficulty breathing, and tightness in the upper back. The list goes on. The towel traction ...

Fix your neck using the Neck Cloud and lumbar roll
Good stuff. Straight and to the point, I like it.
Can this be done with impingement
Good instruction, Doc
Living in Arlington VA I had Dr. Fontaine treat my left shoulder with ART due to a skiing fall. Upon my return from a trip out west, it simply would not heal -- or even start the improving process for that matter. Dr. Fontaine worked ART on my shoulder/arm and the strong concentrated pain (like a thin wire pulled to maximum tension) was completely gone after either 3 or 4 sessions. That was approx winter of 2015 -- since then no reoccurring problems. I don't even recognize that I ever fell on that arm today -- no issues whatsoever. I've since then referred two friends to him and would highly recommend him to anyone for this technique which is simply excellent.
Very nice :) I do this one! my trainer had also advised me that I could do this with a cable and load a lot of weight onto it, or just enough and it seems to work really well.
Good video
