Slip and Fall? Three Ways Bridging® Can Help
Two days, three clients with falls. ‘Tis the season!
Only two days back in the office in the new year and we’ve seen three clients recovering from injuries related to falls. So many ways to slip and fall — stairs, sidewalk, and tripping. Please be careful!
As we worked through the Bridging movements with each client, they all felt the tension in their body relax in ways they didn’t even realize they needed. Balance was restored along with ease of motion.
When is the right time for some help?
- A virtual session soon after the fall will help you feel more settled.
- Let things heal for a week or two, then get your micromovements put back together with a virtual or in-person session.
Here are three aspects of falls and how Bridging is able to help.
Head vs. Ice
Scenario:
Slipping on ice and rapidly hitting solid ground. Worst case is when your head breaks the fall.
How Bridging can help….
Heads bounce, necks and shoulders don’t. The micromovements connecting them each get all jumbled up. We systematically match up each segment and smooth out the coordination between each of the moving parts. We also check to see if vestibular and visual systems need to re-synch, and guide that process along.
You will feel like you can think clearly again!
Body vs. Ice
Scenario:
Body weight suddenly slamming onto the ground which is a shock to your nervous system and your body.
How Bridging can help….
A fall wreaks havoc on both the structural system and the nervous system. The ortho takes care of the bones. We take a look at how the imbalance of movements may have upset your nervous system, and then rebalance the movements.
You will feel a calm you didn’t realize was missing. Ahh.
You Caught the Fall, and Still Hurt
Scenario:
You were able to roll, or grab onto something to break the fall.
How Bridging can help…
In the process of avoiding the fall your body was still stressed in a sudden way. Micromovements are impacted in ways you can’t make sense of. You just know you’re not quite right, yet nothing is broken. We assess and rebalance the affected movements.
You will be able to get back to living your best life!

Our goal at Kinetic Konnections is to keep your body’s micromovements optimally organized to behave, focus and be active for the things you enjoy in life.
