Orthosoma: Rolfing Structural Integration- Advanced Bodywork

I see many knee replacements. Most of them work out pretty well, especially with good pre-hab & PT post procedure. This year I’ve seen a couple cases of “locking up” when the hip flexors & quadriceps, likely overworked from compensating for the dysfunctional joint (or possibly the cause, hard to tell) & have helped the clients make progress, by working the functional chain via PNF & capsular mobilization.

I got prolo therapy on my right knee yesterday, hoping to avert the problems that follow damaged ligaments & inability to retain alignment corrections (my fibula was slipping out of place, ugh!).

This is an interesting option- coral, & living bone, are almost the same minerals.

Not ready for a knee replacement? You might be able to fix your cartilage instead. New techniques include a pellet made of coral and a hydrogel that can be pressed around the bone to help eliminate pain.

I try to avoid desk work, as much as possible. When I have to, I use a zero-G chair & a lap desk.
