Sneak peak on a typical physio follow up appointment with Sam and an artistic athlete 🤸‍♀️ If you're an artistic athlete (gymnast, dancer, cheerleader, aerial artist...) looking for someone who gets your sport and understands how to get you there - let's work together 🤗

I can't round out the season without an extra special appreciation for my crew. This med staff is comprised of people like no other. I'm so grateful to have met them all and to get to call them both friends and mentors. We stick together through lugging around heavy kits, missing weekends with family, waking up early to get a workout in, leaving the training facility after everyone has felt, making tough calls, eating late night take out, and wearing cute matching outfits on finals. When we have time we throw in a good laugh and a fun outing too 😜 Couldn't ask for better people to do it with 🥹🫶🏼 Cheer Canada Med Team '25-'26

Gymnasts with back pain? Shoulder flexibility and mobility may be part of the answer!!
Shoulders need adequate movement and strength in overhead range in order to get into bridge-like positions. Otherwise the body will often use your back to find that extra movement and use it to created stability or strength in those skills.
Swipe and try out these two shoulder drills before you do your next bridge or back handspring. Let me know if you notice a difference. 🤗
Drill 1: Latissimus Dorsi stretch. Sit back on heels, place elbows on a chair and hands together. Sink armpits and chest to the floor. Hold 30 sec, repeat 2x
Drill 2: Active end range shoulder flexion. Sitting in child's pose, arms stretched out in front of you. Lift one arm towards the ceiling, working hard to not let your elbows bend, arm move away from your ears, or letting your chest come off your knees. Alternate sides 6-8x/side, repeat 3x
Enjoy being more comfortable in your bridges and back handsprings!!🤸‍♀️
