Notice a Curve or Unevenness in Your Spine? It Could Be Scoliosis. Scoliosis is a sideways curvature of the spine with rotation of the vertebrae. It can range from mild to more significant and may affect posture, movement, and in some cases cause discomfort. Common signs can include: ✅ One shoulder sitting higher than the other ✅ Uneven hips or waist ✅ One shoulder blade appearing more prominent ✅ A visible curve or rotation of the spine ✅ Back stiffness, fatigue, or discomfort in some people 💪 Exercise can play an important role in managing scoliosis. Rehabilitation may focus on improving core and back strength, posture, mobility, balance, and overall movement while addressing each person’s individual spinal curve. Try the exercises demonstrated in this video: ✅ Move slowly and with control ✅ Focus on proper technique and posture ✅ Build strength progressively ✅ Stay consistent with your program Share this with someone who needs it and comment below your questions! #physiotherapy #scoliosis #scoliosisawareness #lumbar #lowbackpainrelief

Greater Trochanteric bursitis - why the outside of your hip is painful. Greater trochanteric bursitis usually occurs due to the inflammation of the bursa in the region. The bursa is a gel like sac that prevents the tendons rubbing directly on the bone around their insertion point. If the sac is irritated by either direct trauma, or if the surrounding muscles or tendons are too tight and apply too much pressure on the bursa it gets irritated and inflamed. This can cause lots of pain and discomfort with the following: 1. When lying on that hip you find it painful 2. When you try and activate those hip abductors and the tendons rub on the bursa it’s painful - pain with hip abduction 3. Pain when directly pressing on the bursa itself 4. Sometimes painful even with single leg activity If that’s the case, you might have greater trochanteric bursitis. Try the exercises in this video, start slow and progress. Try and do them daily, 3 sets of 15 and make sure you hold for 3-5 seconds. Isometric type exercises are best in the initial phases of the rehab then progress. In the clinic, ultrasound, sometimes needling the affected muscles, manual therapy, and taping can be useful techniques to further support the recovery of this condition. If you know someone dealing with this condition please tag them or share this video with them. As always comment below your questions and I’ll be happy to answer! #hip #hipbursitis #hippain #hippainrelief #hipexercises
