Patient Resources
These videos reinforce the functional movement patterns we emphasize so often during appointments. Postural position, effective core stability, and proper shoulder and hip mechanics are all foundational for a pain-free and healthy body.
Diaphragmatic Breathing and Core Super Stiffness
Reviewing proper core stability patterns. Start here if you don’t know where to start, this is the foundation for everything else.
Birddogs
A great exercise to strengthen the deeper core muscles and to start playing with single leg stability as well.
Dead Bugs
A progression of the TA bracing exercise. An effective, safe way to train core strength without risking the low back.
Bridge Variations
Bridges are a great way to build gluteal strength and proper hip extension patterns. Multiple options for different abilities.
Wall Squats
A progression from the bridge exercise. A great way to start building proper squat patterns, without the mobility and balance challenges of regular air squats.
Clamshells
The starting place for gluteus medius (outside of the hip) strengthening.
Hip Hinged Banded Arm Lift
A great exercise for learning proper scapular stability while building great posterior chain strength.
Back Extensions
Another great exercise for building posterior chain strength.
Thoracic Spine Mobility Series
A great way to create space in the upper back. Pairs well with the thoracic rolling video.
Banded Wall Walks
A great starter exercise for creating proper scapular and shoulder stability patterns.
Kettle Bell Lift Variations
A few different options to reinforce proper core stability patterns and build endurance in the posterior chain, shoulders and core.
Rolling for Thoracic Mobility
How to create space in the upper back.
Side Plank Hip Thrust - double leg
A progression from the clamshell exercise. One of my favorite exercises, builds side body strength and reinforces proper hip extension patterns.
Side Plank Hip Thrust - single leg
A progression of the double leg version. A great exercise, but much harder. Make sure you have the double leg down before progressing to this.
