Shown above at our Boca facility is a patient who is just under 5 months s/p bilateral knee replacement surgeries. This particular patient had the goal of returning to running and sports such as tennis, activities she has been unable to perform for the past 20 years secondary to pain. Often times patients are told they will never be able to run again, however with appropriate requisite strength, and a structured return to dynamic, sport specific movements it is always possible.

Here is a patient performing eccentric weighted ball catches at a shoulder position of 90/90 working with Dr. Gonzalez at our Boca location. Although eccentric training can be used to train muscles 30-40% beyond their capacity as well as be much more demanding than concentric exercises, the goal of this exercise is to impose deceleration forces on the shoulder for improved scapular stabilization as well as stabilization for the RTC. This would be considered an exercise introduced in late-stage rehab for a SLAP or RTC repair due to its demand on the scapular stabilizers.#PT #physicaltherapy #foxphysicaltherapy #sportsphysicaltherapy #athlete #baseballrehab #returntosport #SLAPrehab #RTCrehab #decelerationtraining #eccentrictraining @foxphysicaltherapy #miami #bocaraton #fortlauderdale

Dr. Young at our Boca facility is shown working with a competitive high school basketball player performing a single leg anterior oblique sling exercise. The anterior oblique sling consists of the external and internal obliques, the contralateral adductor muscle, and the interconnecting adductor abdominal fascia. The anterior oblique sling plays a large part in both acceleration and deceleration of the body during rotational movements required in most sports. Deficiencies in this area can lead to movement dysfunctions due to overuse, therefore it is extremely important to assess during an orthopedic evaluation. #PT #physicaltherapy #foxphysicaltherapy #corestability #sportsphysicaltherapy #athlete #bocaraton #miami #brickell #miamibeach #basketball

This patient came to see Dr. Fox yesterday with a referral of muscle spams. After Dr. Fox’s evaluation he found the patient to have disc involvement in her lower lumbar spine which was causing her lateral shift you can see above. The patient had an excellent response to treatment and 24 hours later she is almost back to 100%. She was unable to sit, lay down or bend forward yesterday. She can now move freely and is able to go on her vacation she had planned today. .

When @hernen_25 first stepped foot in our office he had a severe lateral shift coupled with shooting pain down his leg indicative of disc irritation in his spine. As a collegiate baseball player he was training for his sport when he injured his back. Due to poor lifting mechanics and issues with hip mobility Hernen was unable to perform a proper deadlift or squat without overcompensating with his low back and thus injuring his lumbar spine in the process. Pictured in the video simple modifications to a dead lift can help an athlete to strengthen through functional patterns and avoid further injury. Once the athlete reaches the point where their mobility issues are fully addressed tolerance to a traditional deadlift or squat can then be re-evaluated. Look out for our next months blog post that covers some of the myths that surround deadlifting and its association with back injuries. .

Here is one of our patients who was involved in a skydiving accident explaining the benefits of the @alterginc treadmill. He suffered a broken pelvis and is currently only allowed to be partial weight bearing while using crutches. With the assistance of the Alter G he is able to ambulate without crutches and work on regaining normal gait mechanics.

Instagram post 2044311222921158199_1224439709 $Congrats!! . . “ I freaking did it!!!! 🏆🏅 OMG!!! Unofficial time 7:13:17 🙌🏻 Man that was hard I’m not gonna lie. The swim was amazing-lake temp was great-I felt fast and when I needed a break doing breaststroke was the rest. The bike portion I stopped twice for the restroom which went super fast and also let me stretch/rest some things 🤣 The last 6 miles of the bike the road was super bad and I was terrified that I was going to pop a tire-thankfully I finished that. The RUN- well I went wayyyy slower than I wanted and walked the hills which of course came around every loop-yep we did 3 loops-super fun 🙃 The pouring downpour of free shower started around mile 6 and man it poured rain for like 10 minutes-it was refreshing. The last few miles were just hot and I was so done. Foot held up-sore now and getting ready to ice. Thanks so much @foxphysicaltherapy and @miamidpm for getting the back to race ready so fast. Theres seriously no way after getting this stress fracture 3ish months ago I couldve finished this race without your help. ☺️ Thanks to everyone that tracked me and cheered me on today-love u all! “🏊‍♀️🚴‍♀️🏃‍♀️ #tri365 #triathlete #im703florida #halfironman #firsthalfironman #raceafterstressfracture #trimom #wearetriathlon #wearetrilife365 #fitnessmotivation #ididit #finishingphoto #hainescity703 @tritats #doepicshit @womensrunningcommunity #beinspiring #inspiringwomen @run_fit_boymom$

Practicing movements in physical therapy that place demands similar to being on the field of play is crucial in order to reduce fear avoidance, promote confidence in the athlete and reduce risk of reinjury. Dr. Espinosa is working hard to help one of our tennis players to return from an extensive knee surgery. .
