👉 Sit upright in a chair
👉 Slowly straighten one leg and raise your foot

Dealing with shoulder pain, stiffness, or irritation from bursitis? 😣

Try this gentle shoulder pendulum exercise 👇

👉 Support yourself on a bed, table, or sturdy surface
👉 Let the affected arm hang relaxed
👉 Keep the shoulder loose
👉 Make small, controlled circles
👉 Move clockwise and counterclockwise
👉 Start with no weight or a very light weight if comfortable

The goal is to create gentle movement through the shoulder joint without forcing it.

This can be useful when your shoulder feels stiff or irritated, but if you have true shoulder instability, a recent injury, or surgery, your rehab program may need to be more specific.

Stop if you feel sharp pain, increased instability, numbness, or worsening symptoms.

Save this for your shoulder mobility routine 🙌

Scrolling, texting, or using your phone all day and getting pain near the thumb side of your wrist? 📱😣

It may be related to De Quervain’s tenosynovitis, which affects tendons around the thumb side of the wrist.

Here’s a simple screening movement 👇

👉 Place your thumb into your palm
👉 Wrap your fingers around it
👉 Gently bend your wrist downward toward the pinky side
👉 Pay attention to what you feel around the thumb-side wrist

If this creates sharp pain in that area, it may be consistent with De Quervain’s, but this test alone cannot confirm the diagnosis.

Don’t force the movement if it’s very painful.

Try it and comment positive or negative 👇

Dealing with sudden spinning or dizziness when you move your head? 😵‍💫

If your symptoms are caused by BPPV (benign paroxysmal positional vertigo), the Epley maneuver may help.

A trained therapist can guide your head and body through a series of specific positions designed to move displaced inner-ear crystals back where they belong 👇

👉 Head is positioned and turned
👉 You’re moved through a sequence of positions
👉 Each position is held briefly
👉 You’re then guided back to sitting

The Epley maneuver is not appropriate for every cause of dizziness, so getting properly assessed first is important.

If dizziness is new or severe, or comes with weakness, trouble speaking, severe headache, fainting, chest pain, or difficulty walking, seek urgent medical care.

Save this if you or someone you know deals with positional vertigo 🙌

Can you comfortably hold a deep squat for 30 seconds? 👀

👉 Stand with your feet in a comfortable position
👉 Turn your toes out slightly if needed
👉 Slowly sink into a deep squat
👉 Keep your heels down if comfortable
👉 Stay relaxed and controlled
👉 Hold for up to 30 seconds

You should feel your hips, knees, and ankles working through a deeper range of motion.
