After an injury, the road to recovery often includes physical therapy. As you work to return your normal level of activity, healing may not progress as fast as you may like or expect.

Some physical therapy providers only focus on the injured or affected areas and may ignore other musculoskeletal dynamics that may be causing your continued pain. However, we found a provider that gets it. In Motion OC in Irvine promotes the whole body, recognizing it as one kinetic chain, with each part affecting the whole

Even without injury, muscle imbalances may often be caused something you do as a habit, such as slumping in a chair, or working out one set of muscles while ignoring another group. If either of these puts your spine or joints out of their normal, balanced alignment, you may experience postural dysfunction.
