Over the past two weeks I’ve been testing the balance of volunteers to put our new Balance Tracking System device to work (read more here). What’s been fascinating is two-fold: First, each person tested actually had an accurate sense of what made them feel better or worse. We were able to validate this intuition and […]
A few short updates to share today … Congrats to professionals recently completing their Bridging® Technique training. Upcoming Training info for the next Level 1 and 2 Bridging cohorts. Balance Testing updates and insights from using the new measurement device. Let’s dive in! Congrats to the Newest Bridging Level 2 Professionals! Congrats to such a […]
Hip Fractures The stats about full recovery are alarming! The implications have two types of impacts depending upon who you are in the scenario. Are you the default caregiver? If so, a fall puts you one slip away from significant life change with caregiving needs and potential living situation changes. This can be as a […]
Balance … Such a simple term for a complex set of skills which start developing from the time we are born. Pursuit of better balance led me down this path to create the Bridging® Technique. A simple sway control assessment is the first thing I do in a session to observe your balance. This is […]
In the last part of this series about the disruptions from minimally invasive surgeries we bring it all together with a case study. Meet Annie to see how her early life surgery has impacted her throughout childhood, and how Bridging® resets have helped her. (Much gratitude to Annie and her mom for helping me share […]
Each day at the Bridging Institute we see a variety of people with pain and movement concerns. It’s uncanny how many of them have a minimally invasive procedure in their past. Although the scar is minimal, the surgery is deceptive in terms of how the core muscle coordination can be disrupted. ESPECIALLY for CHILDREN who […]
Rear-ended, but “I Feel Fine” Past Vehicle Accidents: Why Your Pain May Be Connected Auto accidents are more common than we realize — especially in the wild-west of post-COVID driving. (Yes, its a thing!) Statistically, 29-30% of all vehicle accidents are a rear-end impact with another 20-25% being side-impact (T-bone). Does this include you? Regardless […]
Rear-ended, but “I feel fine.” Vehicle Accidents: Why Your Lingering Pain May Be Connected As we move out of winter, everything seems to speed up — including drivers. With that speed (and plenty of distraction) comes accidents. If it happens, you may walk away thinking, “Thank my lucky stars.” Or, maybe you feel shaken, but […]
