The intermittent pain with certain movements is a warning sign that there is usually some fraying in the tendons of shoulder muscles. Our life as you know is shaped to have us leaning forward, head down, shoulders forward, while sitting in front of a computer screen. Does that sound familiar? We then wonder why we can’t go exercise full speed, play sports or just play with our kids without feeling increased pain. We see

Dr. Jonathan Ruzicka July 26, 2017

Have you been told that you need surgery on your back? Have you been told that there is no other option?? Two months ago, I had a patient come to me asking if he should go ahead with a suggested surgery. They wanted to take out a disk and fuse the joint where the disk had been.

Dr. Jonathan Ruzicka March 17, 2017

I was told a lot of things about treatment and physical therapy tonight by a 40 year old woman that has suffered with foot pain for OVER a year! This was a friend, I was in no way telling her she needed anything, she was just telling me about her imminent doom….. She has had two MRI’s: The first telling her that she tore a ligament in her ankle.

Why do we have this problem? Are we inherently predisposed to these problems and if so, is there actually anything we can do about it? This all starts with the issue of life being a sitting sport; we sit to drive, we sit to study, we sit to work, we sit for movies, we sit for dinner etc…..
