All You Need to Know About Chiropractic Lower Back Pain

Introduction

Lower back pain Chiropractor is the most common cause of disability in the U.S., affecting nearly 50 million people each year. Chiropractors can help people with lower back pain by addressing the root causes of their condition and restoring normal joint function.

BACK PAIN CAUSES

Back pain can be caused by many things. It's important to understand what the main causes of back pain are because this will help you decide how to treat your symptoms and get better faster.

Muscle strain: This is the most common cause of lower backache, but it doesn't always show up on x-rays or MRI scans. Exercises that involve twisting or bending at the waist can also create muscle strains in areas such as the lower back, buttocks and thighs where they're not supposed to be flexed very much at all (like when you sit on a chair). Stressful activities like lifting heavy objects may also lead to muscle strains if done incorrectly or improperly maintained over time through regular use; this includes lifting weights during exercise sessions as well as carrying groceries home from stores after work every day!

HOW DOES CHIROPRACTIC CARE WORK?

Chiropractic care is a holistic approach to health. It focuses on the spine and nervous system, which are connected to many other parts of your body. This can help relieve pain in these areas, making it easier for you to move freely without experiencing any discomfort from the pain or strain on your muscles and joints.

Back Pain Chiropractor use several different techniques that involve adjusting their patients' spines (or vertebrae) by moving them into different positions—usually back-bending or side-bending motions—to help reduce disc injury or irritation resulting from misalignment from birth trauma or past injuries sustained during sports activities like running or playing tennis ball with friends outside after school each day until dinner time when parents would come home from work early so they could spend more quality time together as a family unit before having dinner together every night unless there was something wrong with one person's schedule like schoolwork assignments due tomorrow morning so need more sleep tonight instead taking care myself since my roommate isn't feeling well either sickly right now," she said sadly."

DO I NEED X-RAYS?

Do I need an x-ray?

If you have lower back pain, the answer is likely yes. Chiropractors use x-rays to diagnose and treat problems in the spine. A chiropractor may recommend a series of x-rays if they suspect that there is something wrong with your back (or any other part of your body), so that they can properly diagnosis and treat it.

WHAT IS A CHIROPRACTIC ADJUSTMENT?

A chiropractic treatment for lower back pain adjustment is a safe, effective, and natural way to treat back pain. Chiropractors use their hands to manipulate the spine in order to realign it and restore normal function. By manipulating the spine, it allows for more space between each vertebrae in your lower back (the bones that make up your spinal column) so they can move freely without causing stress on one another. This can help reduce pain because there's less pressure on different areas of your body as they move around normally again after an adjustment—and since most people experience some irritation or inflammation in their nerves when we suffer from chronic aches or pains like sciatica or lumbago (back spasms), allowing them room within our spinal columns will allow them time away from being irritated by other parts of our bodies where we don't need constant contact with each other anymore!

While this may seem like just another way for doctors who specialize in treating various health issues through physical therapy techniques such as massage therapy etc., chiropractors actually use different methods than traditional medical practitioners do when performing adjustments - these include manually moving bones around inside someone's body while also using heat lamps during treatment sessions which helps increase blood flow throughout whole body structures including muscles so they're able into doing things faster than usual because there isn't any resistance hindering physical activity anymore."

ARE CHIROPRACTIC ADJUSTMENTS SAFE?

Chiropractic adjustments are safe for everyone, including pregnant women.

Chiropractic adjustments are safe for children and seniors as well.

Chiropractors also use spinal manipulation equipment to treat people with diabetes who have nerve damage or stroke symptoms that make it difficult for them to control their blood sugar levels through diet and exercise alone

THE IMPORTANCE OF GERMAN NUTRIENT THERAPY IN ADDITION TO CHIROPRACTIC CARE FOR LOWER BACK PAIN.

German Nutrient Therapy is a highly effective treatment for lower back pain. It uses specific nutrients to help your body heal itself and achieve a state of wellness. The benefits include:

Lessened inflammation in the muscles and joints

[devildomdisaster]

I’d like to request a body switching scenario with [Satan, Asmo, Beelz, Solomon, Simeon] and an Gender Neutral MC with undisclosed chronic health issues. Like brittle bones that break if you step a little goofy, stress ulcers, sensitivity to light, joint pain, poor stamina, etc. I just want to see the boys go “You live like this?!”

Satan:

Satan has a habit of collecting rare magical objects. Somehow quite a few of these cause body-switching incidents.

The cursed object causes the two of you to lose consciousness for a few minutes. When he wakes up he is in immediate pain.

His first thought is that the spell must have caused this and you must be in pain too! If he, a demon, is in this much pain it must be excruciating for a human.

He rushes to you or tries to. But falls to his knees in shock as a shooting pain runs through him.

He blinks watering eyes and sees his body stirring on the floor and realizes you’ve switched bodies.

You sit up feeling better than you’ve felt in years. Wondering if this is ‘normal’ or if that cursed object gave you super healing.

It’s only when you hear your own voice calling your name that you realize you and Satan have switched bodies.

You can see the tears in his(your body's) eyes and know exactly what's happening. You’ve had chronic pain for years. And Satan is sitting in just the right way to send shooting pain up your spine.

“Lay down on your back,” you order him. He has just enough control to follow your order and lower your body down slowly.

You can see Satan’s relief on your face as the pain eases slightly. It takes a moment for the worst of the pain to subside and his breath to even out.

He’s staring at the ceiling when he speaks, voice still a little shaky, “You live like this?”

You hum out a yes.

“All- all the time?” he asks, horrified.

“Sometimes it's worse than others. If I move or sit in certain ways it gets real bad. But if I avoid those movements it’s bearable.”

Satan turns to you “This is what you call bearable?!”

You shrug, “That position is usually pretty safe. So yeah probably.”

He is careful to move your body a little as possible as he shifts to point at a spellbook. “That book-”

“Are you going to change us back?” you ask.

“I-” he hesitates. Clearly not wanting you to be in pain again.

“Look, Satan it’s not that I don’t enjoy being pain-free. But I’ve dealt with it for years now. I’ve learned how to function around it. I had to. You on the other hand are going to be laying on the floor for most of the day if you stay in my body.”

“I’m going to find a way to fix you.” He says firmly as you place the book in his hands.

“Promises, promise,” you sing, preparing yourself to experience the pain in your body again.

“I mean it. As soon as I can move again I am going to find a way to help you. Devildom magic has to be better than human medicine.”

Asmo:

Asmo bought you matching bracelets. “Look Mc, I bought us these bracelets! They are supposed to bring us closer together!”

Well, they did bring you closer together. Just not in the way Asmo intended.

When he clasped the bracelets on, you felt a shiver go down your spine and when you opened your eyes you felt...different. Better. There was no aching pain. For once the dazzling lights of Asmo’s room didn’t cause you to wince. That's when you realize you’ve switched bodies.

Asmo on the other hand immediately cringed and squeezed his eyes closed, clutching his(your) head.

Asmo groaned pitifully, teary eyes squinting at you “Mc, how do you do anything like this??”

He curls up beneath his covers, and you make your way around his room turning off all the lights and closing his curtains. Once the light is gone, Asmo peers out from beneath the covers, “Do you live like this all the time?”

“Mostly, yeah.”

“No wonder your room is so dark. I thought you were just being dramatic.”

You shrug at him, “The Devildom is better than the human realm. There’s no bright sunlight here.”

Once the spell wears off, Asmo keeps the bracelet on both as a reminder of how you live with this chronic illness and as the intended purpose of showing how close the two of you are.

He buys you super dark glasses to try and filter out some of the bright light that bothers you.

and asks Solomon to help him find any magical treatments that might help you.

Beel:

Beel and you switch bodies after eating some of Solomon’s cooking.

Neither of you wants to eat Solomon’s cooking, but you had the misfortune to be the only two people who couldn’t find an excuse to get out of it.

Beel doesn’t know how it happened, Solomon doesn’t know how it happened, you sure as hell don’t know how this happened. But here you are with a strange magic ‘cake’ in hand, looking at your body from Beel’s eyes.

Your first thought is how strong you feel in Beel’s body. Like you could do anything. The exhaustion and joint pain you normally deal with is gone.

Is this how normal people live? Although you suppose a demon doesn’t count as a normal human, so it’s not such a good comparison.

You watch as Beel catches himself on the counter as he adjusts to the symptoms of your illness.

He lowers your body to the ground. Sitting gingerly as the movement causes the joint pain to flare.

“Mc, is this how you feel every day?” He is so so concerned about you! How do you function if you feel like this all the time? “Why haven’t you told anyone about this?”

“It’s ok, Beel. I’ve figured out how to deal with it.”

“It is not ok. Mc, we could have helped you!”

It’s strange to be lectured by your own voice and body. But Beel does a good job of it. He insists that you have to tell him when your symptoms act up and convinces you to let him speak with Lucifer about trying some magical treatments.

The potion doesn’t wear off for several hours. You feel a tad bit guilty about enjoying this when Beel is so obviously suffering, but you can’t remember the last time you felt so good. So capable.

Once the spell wears off Beel insists on carrying you around so you aren't as fatigued and to avoid aggravating your joint pain.

Be prepared for trying a string of different potions and spells to treat your illness, under the watchful eyes of Beel and Lucifer.

Solomon:

After hearing about Lucifer and Satan’s body-switching incident Solomon went looking for another cursed book.

He’d heard some rumor about Satan’s book having a twin and was determined to find it.

And find it he did.

You accidentally touched the book at the same time as him and switched bodies.

Solomon is more intrigued than anything else. “Do you live like this all the time? If so, you do a remarkable job of hiding it.”

He is going to test the limits of your body’s capabilities. He wants to know what situations cause pain or discomfort so that you can’t pretend to be ok when you aren’t.

You’ll have to warn him if he is doing anything that might permanently harm your body.

Unlike some of the others, Solomon doesn’t immediately look for a way to switch back.

When the spell wears off Solomon has a near-complete understanding of your condition. He knows what causes pain, what doesn’t, and what situations you should absolutely avoid.

“Mc, you need to stop pretending you are ok when you’re not. I’ll be here to help you when you need it. And if that help happens to be stopping you from doing foolish things to save face then so be it.”

Solomon keeps a close eye on you from now on. He respects you enough to not tell anyone about your condition if you don’t want him to, but he will also come up with the strangest excuses to remove you from activities he knows will aggravate your condition.

If there is magic that can be used to help you Solomon will find it. Just be prepared to feel a little bit like a lab rat while he figures out the perfect spell or potion to help you.

Simeon:

Simeon wants to know what it feels like to be human. He thinks it would give him a greater understanding of humanity.

He mentions this to Solomon, who being the chaos loving wizard he is, makes a potion to allow Simeon to switch bodies with you.

The problem occurs when Solomon 'forgets’ to tell you both that he’s already put the potion in your tea.

Simeon is shocked. He finds himself in your body. Looking at himself through your eyes. And by god does your body hurt!

“Mc, I’m dreadfully sorry, but I think Solomon’s little joke may have gone wrong. I-everything hurts.”

You blink at Simeon...er Simeon in your body. Mind taking a moment to catch up with the sudden body switch. You feel great. Part of that might be due to being in an angel's body, but mostly it's due to the lack of pain.

“Oh, everything's fine on my end. So it must be my chronic pain. It’s worse today than others.”

“Wh-what do you do when it’s bad?”

“Usually I try to distract myself. Or try to take a nap and hope I wake up feeling better. But we’d made plans and I didn’t want to cancel so…”

“So you decided to deal with extra pain for my sake? Oh, Mc. You should have told me you live like this. I can help”

“There’s no point, Simeon. Not a single doctor I’ve been to has found anything wrong with me. I didn’t want anyone here to pity me.”

“I am an angel, Mc. I’m quite sure I can do a bit more than your human doctors.”

You help Simeon to his room where you spend the afternoon watching human world movies to help distract him.

Simeon sleeps fitfully next to you and as you drift off you wonder if that is how you always look when you let your guard down enough to show your pain.

When the potion wears off you are both asleep, curled up next to each other.

When you wake up you are back in your own body. Simeon is sitting next to you slipping a charmed bracelet onto your wrist. “This is from the Celestial realm. It should help keep your pain at a more manageable level until I can find a more permanent solution.”

late night phone call... promises in the dark...

I hope that my blog is helping someone.  it’s not easy to put all this on paper.  I’ve been told that many people face these same issues and roadblocks when trying to care for a loved one that isn’t cooperative.   At best, being a primary caregiver is a 24/7 leave your life at the door decision.  your life is no longer your own, you have to grab snatches of life when you can.  

Being a caregiver can give you much more that you give.  it’s eye opening, tasking and mentally exhausting.

After a couple of weeks out of Susan’s house and rejoining the real world I feel better physically, mentally and emotionally.

At some point the caregiver needs to consider their personal needs before the patient’s needs.

That’s where I am.  if you think that’s selfish, stay tuned.....

I talked to Susan last night. She called.  She wants me to come back and help her.  

I explained that she needed help I was not trained or qualified to give.   I can change a bandage but I can’t give her a shower.  Susan said taking care of her personal hygiene needs was no problem for her.

I had to get blunt and talk about her lack of personal hygiene in some fairly graphic terms.

She said I don’t know what I’m talking about.  

I told her the medical team treating her had told me they think she needs to be in assisted living so she could get the proper care, not just medically and physically but mentally as well.  

Susan got mad – no, furious - that I was talking to her medical team and wanted to know which ones.  I said all of them.  

She claimed I was talking to them behind her back. I had to tell her most of them approached me out of concern for her well-being - and that her inability to handle her personal hygiene was obvious as well as her refusal to do what she needed to do to keep her diabetes under proper control.

I told Susan her medical team also wants her to get serious psychological counseling, something she has refused.

Again, she said I don’t know her I’m talking about.  Susan says she is more aware of her physical and mental condition than anyone else.  And, I can’t possibly know how or what she is feeling because I’ve never been in her shoes.

True enough.  I’ve not been crushed in a car accident, breaking my back in ten places and assorted other medical conditions.

I did remind her I had 11 surgeries in nine years so I knew a fair bit about recovery from major spine and neck surgery in addition to multiple joint replacements etc. I also know how to follow doctors’ orders and let people help me – something she won’t do.

True to form, she said that wasn’t the same.

Yeah right.

The she surprised me by saying she planned to get out of her house and into a facility “soon.”

I asked when. Her response was vague so I asked for a specific timeline. She said it would take time and didn’t know.  I reminded her APS could help facilitate her moving to assisted living in a couple of weeks.    

Then she stated that the house needed to be cleaned and fixed up and that took time. She has been investigating cleaning companies but it was a process.  

I told her I could get a cleaning crew in days, not months - been there done that.  I also told her that a good relator could have her house on the market in 60 says.

Bottom line here is for every suggestion of how to move forward, Susan has a myriad of reasons why it won’t happen that way, usually because no one understand the depth of the issues or refuse to consider her thoughts.

I reminded her that her taxes were still sitting at the tax office.  all she needs to do is sign and they will be filed.  I can bring the forms to her for signature.  Again, she says I don’t understand.

I brought up her car.  it hasn’t been tagged in two years.  Again, I mentioned that I could handle all of that and had offered to several times.  And again, she says it’s not that simple and only she knows how to navigate this process.  Countering, I told her I talked with the DMV and knew exactly how to get her car tagged and registered.  Once again Susan said I didn't understand.

A psychologist said her responses are to be expected from someone who is massively depressed, scared and in a terrible amount of pain (a reminder, Susan refuses to take any form of pain medication, even Tylenol).

Until those issues are being treated, she will continue to prevaricate and waffle on even the smallest things.  it’s her way of being in control.

So, we came back to me returning to care for her

I told her there are conditions to my return

there would be total deep house clean  

I would be allowed to lean the entire house and be able to clean any room when I thought it needed cleaning.

She would allow physical and mental health nurses to treat her and that she would follow their instructions

She would follow all doctors' instructions

I would be in charge of getting all legal items taken care of promptly

She would have to sign a document agreeing to these conditions

I also told her if she agreed to this, I would stop my court action for guardianship.

She balked and said we could have this conversation in person when I returned  

My response was that these conditions are not negotiable and would need to be agreed to before I would consider returning.  

She balked and again said we could discuss the conditions in person

I said these things could be discussed on the phone.  I also reminded her that she had agreed to these conditions before and reneged. The document was to ensure she honoured her agreement.

She responded by saying I didn’t know what I was talking about and they meant I wasn’t coming back to help her.  

I reminded her all she needed to do was agree to the conditions and I would return

She got angry and then slammed her phone down

In short, same song, different day.  Susan will say anything to get what she wants but when it comes to honoring her promises, it’s a no go.

Hi Dr, I was doing some research into vitamins for my sciatica and came across mention of a supplement I used to take up until right before my first manic episode by the name of rhodiola so I checked and found an article that said it can cause mania. Then I looked into two others I was taking, and, same deal: green coffee supplements which I was taking for energy and maca root powder which to be honest I took in abundance at probably three times the recommended dose, as well as the energy drinks ..being as I had never had a manic episode before I had no idea I was setting myself up for anything; I have had severe chronic muscular pain in my entire body since the age of 20, diagnosed as fibromyalgia -but then one Dr said it wasn't but she did not do nearly as elaborate an assessment as the first- and as a single mom I felt very depleted and lethargic much of the time so I was trying to boost my energy levels and it was working. Then I went on a vacation and to look for housing as we were planning to move, and it was the very first time away from my kids (other than the brief interlude between when my sons were stolen and when my daughter was born which was only a matter of months) and at my friend's house where I was staying (___) so I was unable to sleep for the majority of the time, a nap here and there, and things just got weirder cuz it was a house of partiers and I was seeing a guy there too who was very strange and long story short I ended up wandering the streets and slipped into homelessness within which I obviously did not sleep pretty much ever. I went off all my supplements cold turkey (there were a few others but I cannot remember which). Anyway my daughter and I were very close and talked pretty much constantly and I just remember the LACK of conversation filling my mind with this ..uh ..I don't know how to explain it, it was like I was still talking to her in my head but also needed to find a way to fill the lack somehow. And I also felt deeply compelled to do emotional healing work. The very first bonkers thing that happened and my only 'real' so called 'hallucination' that I recall, was when I screamed in an alley for about 10 minutes because I was persistently haunted by the memory of being recently raped, after which, with wonderful immediacy, I saw tiny rainbows surround and float around me for a couple of minutes. So either I cracked something in my brain by screaming or it was God comforting me or some shit. But I don't think in all my life I had ever screamed before and it was pretty intense.

Then my first manic episode was when after not sleeping at all for days and days, not even an hour, or eating in at least 2 days I think (long story) my weird friend kept taking me into restaurants and then out again and I kept thinking he was going to feed me and I was getting progressively more confused and I guess irritated or whatever word works and a guy noticed and offered me a toke off his joint and I hadn't smoked in a while and I took a huge blast and it just sent me (back) into screamland:

So this is why I think we are mainly dealing with PTSD stuff cuz I have been an expert at repressing my whole life, like, really really good at it. And then the subsequent manic episodes were, in my opinion, similarly, like, echoes of the first; occurring out of an impulse toward healing but sort of forced by circumstance (not sleeping, eating, excessive marijuana intake, etc). I also have pretty strong theories with regard to subtler considerations but you may neither be interested in such 'pseudo' scientifickicities or persuaded by them. However, myself having lived in BC for half my life where holistic medicine is considered the norm in many if not most circles, I cannot discount my views or replace them with what I consider to be a less than evolved conception of matters at hand (no offence; 'research' being what it is is still just at whatever stage it is at, and is not in itself a proof of truth or however you wanna phrase that). Such considerations are the effects of pretty much every thing I ingest on 'whatever' level they effect upon. During 'mania' or 'hypomania' it 'feels' like straight up 'vibration nuance variability' but I have such a sensitive disposition and I mean that physically as well that I can back that up with my own, less wacko\esoteric/bonko research and experience. For example I was vegetarian from the age of 18 until days before I went manic the first time (which I believe is another factor) and then felt addicted to meat and couldn't quit until a couple of months ago. Then I was tempted into eating meat again and I literally couldn't stop feeling like I was going to die afterwards. Albeit it was just like a wandering, mild, but still persistent thought, and I was high, but I never feel paranoid or yucky like that and I know it was the meat. Dairy has somewhat similar effects on me, but almost the opposite (I feel emotionally comforted by it but my body physically does not like it). And when manic or hypomanic I am really compelled toward vegetables like I used to be as a vegetarian but sort of lost my zazz for since becoming bipolar for some reason, BUT, I find them a nuisance and too fibrous and find myself sucking the juice out of them. Etc.

Anyway, blah blah blah who cares about the rantings of some lunatic, but I, for myself, think there is something very simple and natural to the process of healing, and that ultimately it would be within God's design to draw us back into harmony with nature at some point. I know I am 'ahead of my time' in many respects, I'm not a genius for nothing, but I feel encouraged by our last meeting and now that you have acknowledged the possibility that I might not be bipolar (and please understand that it is because to me the diagnosis simply does not make sense given what I understand about myself and my life and the nature of reality etc) I feel my time of necessarily challenging what does not make sense or sit right in my mind (for how couldn't I?) is less of a necessity and we can focus on potentialities etc. And don't worry I don't go around spouting my 'wisdom', I just live my life and if people learn anything from me it is only by paying attention.

Sorry about my run on paragraphs, I honestly cannot figure out how to not.

Hey friend! Any recommendations for scapula muscle pains/any back pain when stretching, ice/heat, arnica/menthol, and muscle relaxers don't work? :0

Hey! I’m in a similar situation as you, most of my chronic back pain is in my upper back. Mine is mostly due to constant muscle tension and joint infections, so what I do for relief may not work for you! Additionally, for me, these are all forms of pain management. My back pain is a constant thing, it just varies in severity!

Water. Being submerged in water and taking the stress off of my muscles and joints provides me relief, especially when it’s warm water. If I’m in the bath I add Epsom salts.

Hydration. Chronic pain is one of those things that tends to get way worse if you don’t take care of every single one of your basic needs.  

Foam Roller/Roller Ball. I’ll lie down on the floor and gently work through the problem areas. I like the roller ball (I just use a tennis ball) because I can apply a controlled amount of pressure on especially bad spots.

Stretching/Gentle Movement. I know you said that stretching didn’t provide relief, but I do think it’s important to gently move and release excess tension you’re holding there due to the pain. Just be gentle and don’t overdo it!

Breathing. Same idea as above, releasing excess tension. I’ll work on my breathing and focus it on the painful area, which can help you relax it without even thinking about it.

Massage Oils/Balms. I’ve found two that work for me personally, and have tried a LOT over the years. I’ll link them just in case you want to take a look! [X] [X]

Anti-Inflammatory Foods. I don’t know if this actually helps back pain or just helps my whole body chill - but being more intentional with my diet has helped to a certain extent. 

Posture. I, like most humans, do not have perfect posture. I definitely notice my back pain gets worse when I forget to focus on my posture!

Screentime. In  a way this is connected with posture. Many of us (myself included) spend a lot of time staring down at my phone. I’m trying to be more conscious of that.

Infrared Sauna. I used to go to an IR sauna 4x a week and it provided short-term relief with joint and muscle pain (between a couple hours-the end of the day).

Mattress and Pillows. I know a lot of people who switched to better mattresses and pillows and found relief. I am currently in this process myself, so I understand how expensive this can be and that it may not be a realistic option!

Chiropractors/Massage Therapists/etc. I’m currently so swamped with health things that I haven’t had time to add seeing someone about my back to my life - but I do think it’s good to see someone who specializes in that sort of thing. If nothing else, I’m sure they’ll give you some different/better advice than I have!

‘In  Lockdown’

‘It’s Shingles’ she confirmed in a brusque manner, pulled down my top and then strolled back to her laptop. I inaudibly groaned.  ‘I have a compromised immune system’  I squeaked at her, cursing the fact that again my unco-operative and hyperactive body had got too feisty with itself for its own good. She eyed me suspiciously over her glasses and, with all the bedside manner of a bath sponge retorted with a snort, ‘We don’t treat Shingles anymore’.  I tried explaining through crossed eyeballs and gritted teeth that I had a chronic health condition and as a result my immune system basically beats itself up and everything else around it on a daily basis, and she again repeated her last sentence, thanked me for coming and ushered me out of the door.  I sighed and shuffled out of the door, defeated.  Couldn’t have been a cold? A stubbed toe? fungus? But no.... Shingles?!  Marvellous.

The last time I had shingles, was two years ago, down my right arm. It made it impossible to grip anything, lift my arm and pretty much ravaged my body for 2 solid weeks and was so painful; I could have quite cheerfully gnawed my own arm off to stop the pain. So I was absolutely thrilled that I was about to go through the experience again. This time the rash was left of my spine, which meant I was looking forward to 10 days of pretty much avoiding all contact with surfaces, backs of settees, taking showers where I would have to wash only half my body,  desperately trying to twist myself into some horrible pretzel shape as with bulging eyes, sweaty face and with grinding teeth, try to fold myself in half in order to avoid any water on my back, having to practically levitate or hang from the ceiling like a bat, to try and get some sleep and spend the whole week walking like a crab because I knew I wouldn’t be able to stand up straight. How wonderfully attractive!  I am sure my husband was thrilled that he was shortly going to be sharing a living space with a sweaty, irate, scuttling rash covered zombie where he would have to handle me using tongs, whilst wearing a surgical mask.  All my plans went to hell as from past experience, I was pretty sure I was going to have to become a hermit whilst I got over it, which meant a week of enduring a week of bloodshot eyes, hair on end, isolation, loneliness and pain.  On top of the isolation, pain, discomfort, lack of sleep  I was already facing with IBD.

 That’s the thing they don’t cover in the ‘this is what you have to deal with when you have Colitis’ guide for dummies. As well as dealing with the annoyance of symptoms like diarrhoea, constipation, and stomach pain, they fail to mention about the rubbishness of chronic fatigue, joints that feel you have mistaken your own for a rheumatic 80 year olds joints, and a brain that feels like you have set yours to maximum speed spin cycle where every day is like you are staring in your very own episode of sesame street.. Today will be brought to you by the letter.... S, T,9, 77, ball, House, crumbs????  and by the number...... 1,4,9,12, Twelfty 7..... house, ball crumbs, testicle.... etc.  It makes for very confusing and alarming sentence structure and more than a few raised eyebrows when trying to converse in public. It doesn’t tell you that because Colitis is at its heart an auto immune condition and so now, every day and night is fight night. ‘Let’s get ready to RUMBLE!!!!! Introducing you in the red corner, fighting well .... also..... you, in the blue corner’. Confusing right?

But the very worst thing about Colitis, specifically the strain I have which Is Microscopic - Lymphocytic Colitis, (worth 85 points and a triple word score in scrabble) is that not even the professionals have a clue about it. There is so little information about it, especially here in the UK, it’s often misdiagnosed as something else, and the only way  it is diagnosed is by biopsy under colonoscopy, which is something you have to beg plead, whine, grovel and cry for,  So even though it says very clearly in my medical history that I have MC,  the DR who diagnosed the shingles, probably would have had very little knowledge about it because as well as being classed as an invisible illness, it is also completely invisible in the pod of IBD diagnosis. If I said I had any other disease in the IBD family, you would have probably heard of it. Crohns, Ulcerative Colitis are known. Both are devastating. Both are classed as really challenging conditions and also in severe cases classed as a Disability. MC (Microscopic colitis) no one has a clue about. Microscopic makes it sound small and insignificant doesn’t it? Well after living with it for 8 months, It’s not small and its certainly not insignificant. In fact I can state with absolute confidence that it is completely devastating, confusing, maddening, upsetting and every other emotion you would associate with living with any other Long term Chronic disease. There are pages and pages and pages of information about IBD, but it makes me both sad and angry that there isn’t the same kind of profile, support, knowledge or help available for those of us that have MC, making living with it, understanding it and conquering it very sodding difficult.

At the beginning of my journey with MC, I wasn’t informed that I was sharing my body with an autoimmune disease. I had no idea that I would be spending all of my time trying to cajole a hyperactive immune system to stop spinning round in circles, calm down and take a nap. I had no clue, that there were going to be days where I would be in so much pain, I would learn creative new swear words that I would shout into a pillow, while I curl up in a ball, trying to get into any comfortable position that wasn’t hanging from the ceiling by my ankles and taking on the form of a bat. I didn’t know that I would be met with ‘questioning stares and raised eyebrows’ and helpful conversation starters like‘ You don’t look ill’ or ‘ oh well at least you know what’s going on now, just change your diet and everything will be fine’ and certainly not that there would be days I would feel so tired, it would feel like my brain was being submerged under water and I would start imagining people as giant, walking pillows, that I could happily snooze on whether they gave me permission or not.  I was ignorant to the fact I would have to give up cake, cheese and all the yummy things I used to love because, by eating them I was turning my bowel into an angry, spiky porcupine, stabbing anything it touched with care free abandonment. Because these are the things they don’t tell you. They just tell you about the joyful toilet troubles. But I promise you. It’s not just that we have to deal with, we deal with a whole cacophony of bloody wonderment, and I wish that every time we had to discuss our disease, the whole process didn’t feel like we have to become a desperate salesmen,  but  instead of trying to persuade someone to buy a car, we are trying to get help or intervention to give us the best chance to exist harmoniously with this disease.

 So, yet again I am enjoying an unwelcome tenant living in my body without paying rent. Yet again I am having to over explain my condition to a professional to try and get any form of treatment for a related autoimmune condition, and yet again I am having to shield myself from the world whilst this butt hole of an illness works its way out of my system. And then after all that fun, go back to dealing with the IBD until another squatter of an illness uses my body as its own personal cave, dwelling there until my body musters up the energy and enthusiasm to squeeze it out again. There’s no room for anything else and I truly worry if something else moves in whilst I am trying to recover from Shingles,  I might spontaneously combust. But hey, maybe if I use a dust buster to hoover myself up and present myself as a little pile of dust with eyeballs and shoes in front of the DR, maybe just maybe, she will read my notes, understand my condition, actually show some sympathy and take me seriously instead of hoofing me out of the door. Well We live in hope eh?

[chronicallymissyxo-blog]

Being brave here, so here goes. Caution, in this post, I mention a few things that COULD contain triggers, so this is a warning just in advance. I needed to write today, it helps clear my head, and it helps me breathe. 

This piece of writing I'm gonna call "Living my life with chronic pain & mental health." 

First things first - My name is Meghan, I'm 23 years old  and I am a chronic illness and mental health warrior. I begun struggling with my mental health when I was at school. I was bullied a lot, for my size, the way I look, for wearing glasses, for having spots, I was constantly pushed around and came home with bruises. I was a mess. I begun self-harming. Not a bad self harm, just a surface scratch when I was about 13. I hid this until after 3 years, my father hit me. We had an argument. I didn't know then I was suffering with depression. I was always the misunderstood, people didn't understand me because I was different. But I was taken by child protective services and moved back to my mums. I would get angry, frustrated, I'd have panic attacks but I didn't know they were panic attacks. I was really depressed but this wasn't acknowledged until I was 18. I finally caved in, wrote a note and took a bunch of pills. Because of that, I lost my job, I lost my life. I gained a lot of weight through antidepressants and I was told I was suffering with severe anxiety and depression. Since that, I've been on a rocky road. I started feeling a lot of muscle and joint pain, and it spread across my whole body and it was constant. 

After that, I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Borderline Personality Disorder, so I'm gonna explain about these illnesses, and how they affect me every day. I have nothing to do with my parents anymore. Mostly because my Dad hit me and my Mum doesn't understand my illnesses and isn't willing to. I do apologise today by the way, I'm having a really terrible brain fog day. When you’re struggling with your mental health, it can be so easy to mistakenly believe the people in your life hate you. For example, it’s hard to remember when that person you haven’t spoken to in a few days doesn’t reply to your texts, they aren’t ignoring you out of spite, they’re probably incredibly busy.If you can relate to this struggle, you’re not alone. Thinking the people around you secretly hate you or don’t want to be around you is a common experience for those dealing with mental illness. When your brain is being cruel to you, it doesn’t just affect you, it can often extend to how you interact with others. If you recognise what your disorder does to you, it’s a new stepping stone to greater skills and extra peaceful moments sprinkled throughout your day. I feel exhausted and weak at the end of the day, whether I let everything out of hell’s gates or I attempted to find peace. The goal is to make it to the end of your day with the knowledge you are worth it and it’s possible to make it through your misfortunes, even if finding peace hurts. Now imagine you experience losing your best friend, or thinking that's the case when they're just busy, you'd get panicked and upset - imagine that exact emotion at that level of intensity every single day. The gears start spinning your head. The truth starts to be less and less relevant when you experience this level of emotion. Do they even like me anymore? Did they ever? Have they been doing everything they can to show me they don’t want me around, and I’ve just been missing it? I hurt one of them the other day, saying or doing something careless based on too much emotion, like I usually do. Was that the final straw? Are they finally done being able to forgive me like I always knew they would be? You start to push them away to protect them from yourself and from all of the huge feelings. If one of them is your “favourite person,” someone you have become enmeshed with and have taken on their emotions as if they were your own in a really unhealthy fashion, it gets even more intense and complicated. This is the fear of abandonment someone with Borderline feels, on some level, every single day. It’s not them being dramatic. It’s not them looking for attention or trying to isolate you. It’s a level of emotional pain most people will never experience or will experience so infrequently that it stands out in their mind as a terrible day in their life. I suffer with quiet borderline, in which I keep it all in and internalise the feelings, but blame myself for it.

With anxiety, I do little things that normal people living a normal life wouldn't do. I start to obsessively clean and organise things. I rearrange things.  Something as small as the order of my bathroom, taking everything out of the cupboards and putting it back in different places, or even my furniture. Sometimes it stays, sometimes I move it back the way it was. I guess I feel like it’s in a better spot than it was before and if I’m moving while doing it I’m putting myself in better place also. I blink. A lot, And clean like a madwoman. Sometimes, it’s the only thing I can do that allows me to feel in control of something. I also twist my hair, shaking my legs unintentionally, and click my nails. Anxieties lead me into a state of thinking I’m worthless, not doing enough or being good enough. Then that leads me into my depressive, no motivation isolation state. I ask my fiance why he loves me and why he chose to be with me. I often don’t feel like I’m ‘enough.’ If I’m anxious I try my best not to bombard him with messages especially if he's out, but sometimes it's the only thing keeping me sane. Anxiety makes me feel that I’m always bothering people. Even close friends. Just trying to start a conversation with them makes me feel that I’m just being a big bother, so I tend to isolate myself. Since feeling lonely is better than feeling like a bother in my eyes. I see myself mentally retreating and feeling myself go down the spiral, while being able to maintain a good outward appearance. Nobody notices the change. Having to deal with the constant depression and social anxiety along with Borderline, people think I’m ‘doing better’ whereas I’m just good at hiding the hard things. I internally attack myself. Whereas someone with classic Borderline acts upon other people, I attack myself because I prefer to deal with things internally, if I've done something wrong, I internally attack myself then over-react in situations because I feel like the worst person on the face of the earth. It's been described as being a quiet Borderline. I get attached to friends almost immediately and I spend 90 percent of my day trying to make them like me. If I think they are a little angry with me or dislike me, then my world crumbles and I feel like the worst human being alive, like I'm not good enough. If me and Jonny have a disagreement, I dissociate completely which in turn causes over reactions I'm unaware of being I'm not fully aware of what I'm doing. It's easier to dissociate rather than deal with things. 

Dissociation takes me to a peaceful place but on the outside I'm saying and doing things I'm unaware of. It scares me, and it makes me scared of myself. I'd never hurt anyone else, I'd only ever hurt myself. Little things can set me off, which then can cause me to feel really depressed. I internalise things then hurt myself, though I'm 2 months clean of self-harm now. Before that I was 4 months clean. I fear abandonment, but I also fear getting attached to people because I always end up hurt, then feel even worse. Vicious cycle of mentality. I find it easier to shut down than blow up, so I self-sabotage myself. All these flood gates of emotions in my head build up, but I can't let them out, I hold it all in.Then we come to the chronic pain side of things. People who don't understand just think "oh it's just pain and tiredness, get over it." But it's so much more than that. It isn't just pain and fatigue. We can't just take painkillers and hope it goes away. However, those living with chronic pain/Fibromyalgia/M.E know it can cause so many more symptoms than that. Sometimes these illnesses can even cause symptoms that others may see as “taboo” or off-limits. The first thing we cross is sensory overload. It’s hard to handle too much noise, movements, lights, smells, etc. It makes socialisation extremely hard because if there’s more than one person there, there’s already extra movement and sound going on. Add a public place to it, and it makes the system go haywire with brain fog, indecisiveness, anxiety and pain. A lot of times it can come off as rude or antisocial, but I don’t think you could ever understand how hard Anglicization with sensory overload is until you’ve experienced it. I struggle to regulate my temperature a lot too. Some days it's not even hot, or sweaty but I'll be drenched even when I haven't been out. In Summer, unless there is water involved, I try to avoid going out which is a downfall because I have a vitamin D deficiency, so I can never win. It's really embarrassing and I constantly feel like I need to explain myself if people look at me because I'm so sweaty.

Now we move on to the sudden fatigue… I AM NOT LAZY! I’ve learned that I have to pace myself to ensure that I have the right energy to get through the day so if I say no to something or ask you to help with something that seems like an easy task, I’m not being lazy, I have hit an energy wall. Some days I still over do it and I struggle to cope with the pain.  It's almost like constant exhaustion, and the fact that no one wants to understand or comprehend makes it more difficult, especially because we're in pain 24/7. I’m sometimes a little sensitive, irritable and snappy. I don’t enjoy being around people (partly due to sensory overload) and I have closed myself off so as not to hurt anyone’s feelings with my callousness. The constant pain makes me so angry with everything that it’s hard to function.

The worst thing for me living with this is the migraines and the brain fog. I can't describe exactly what it feels like, but what I can tell you is when I get a chronic migraine, I get severe brain fog. Some days I get just migraines, some days I get just brain fog. When this happens, it's almost like I feel disconnected from life, like there's a huge bubble around me. It's like I'm in a slow motion picture, I forget words, forget where I am, and I forget what  I'm talking about mid-sentence. Conversation with Brain Fog is difficult. I accidentally zone out while listening to my fiance and sometimes I drift into a different thing entirely whilst still trying to listen to him. It's like I'm walking through jelly, everything just feels heavy, like there's a weight pressing right on the front of my head. My eyes don't focus. I'm trying to function but it's difficult to coordinate physical movements as you try to go about your day. Some days, you can see straight but everything seems distant. You feel exhausted mentally, everything exhausts you mentally and though you're seeing straight, the world just feels blurry. It's hard to put sentences together, or to think of certain words. It's hard to do little things because you've sort of forgotten how to do them. I struggle with my weight. I fluctuate a lot. I can't help it, I can lose weight but I'll end up putting it on. I struggle with my tummy, and find myself needing to go to the bathroom because something I'd normally eat just upsets my tummy on that day. I sometimes have issues with my bladder.  My bladder is overactive, but I have to drink a lot as I get dehydrated quickly and I get a dry mouth as a side effect from medications. I find myself waking 2-3 times a night to go to the  bathroom. Something less talked about with chronic pain, is genuinely anxiety and depression. Depression is a factor, but it's not the cause of chronic pain. My pain is medically unexplained. Depression doesn't go away because the cause of it doesn't go away. You can keep it under control with medications but people don't want to, or aren't willing to understand invisible illnesses. People will see you laugh, and smile so they assume you must be happy. But they don't understand the true feelings of what goes on deep inside your brain.My life has gotten slowly better over the last few months. Whilst yes, I've been on a low, it's nothing to do with my fiancé or anything. It's just the vicious cycle of emotions and pain that drags me down. 

I love him so much. I know there's times when I'm selfish unintentionally because I don't think, I'm always apologetic if I've upset him for whatever reason. I've always placed him first, even though he never asked me to, but I love him that much I'll worship the ground he walks on. I'm always apologetic if I've ever lashed out and caused him pain. All these little apologies I need to make, because I know there's times where he's doubted my love and affection. I'm just so lucky to have a guy like him in my life, while he doesn't understand my illnesses, he does his best to support me. I know we have our arguments, and our disagreements, and there's been times we've pushed each other away. But being able to look him the eye, and apologise, helps us grow even stronger despite the blips. How do I tell him how much love I feel when I look into his eyes and hear him telling me he loves me? How do I express my feelings for him as there are not enough words to tell him how much I care? If he wasn't here for me, I would be nothing but with him by my side, I feel like I can do anything and be myself. I'm the luckiest girl on the planet to have a fiancé like him, I really am. So yeah. I'm sorry this has been long winded. I just needed to get a lot of things off my chest today. I hope you all have an amazing day.

Become A WEIGHT TRAINING EXERCISE Lion

This may be the hardest article I've ever had to write, it really is the very first time I've admitted, that I might be getting older. ROB! Yes, we are receiving older but, remember the rest of the sentence...AND BETTER! Most of us remember Mufasa! The solid, brave, protecting, heroic lion from the Lion King. Make without doubt about it Mufasa was The King!! That's right just like Elvis (showing my age group). Mufasa died fighting heroically to safeguard his satisfaction now. I'm not saying it had been age group that was his undoing. BUT who knows, if he had changed his training strategy during the last few years-trained just a little smarter......probably he wouldn't have gone his battle in the gym and had even more in the tank on game time. Could the results have been different??? Ok! back again to real life or at least my edition of it. Tammy Renee my Mufasa (boss, greatest friend, blah blah blah) provides approached me more than once about writing an article designed to help the ageing athlete. That is right, us siblings in Iron are sportsmen. My thoughts were....why would I end up being asked by her? What perform I understand about aging athletes?? I train as i have always.......I'm a global champion! Hello there!! earth to rob..you're 51 years outdated!! You are a mature athlete!!!! WOW!! It dawned on me then ..the things I i did so all night take me forever to accomplish now...BUT that is clearly a different story. We can save that for a different content. GINA - Aging sportsmen? Oh my....Can't we come up with a more correct term politically? lol Rob, haven't you noticed 40 is the new 30, 50 is the new 40? I actually injured my shoulder winning the W.A.B.D.L. Masters Bench Press Globe Championship in 2005. I competed in Bodybuilding in 2006 coming in 4th place in the W.B.F.A Team USA vs the World competition. I thought that easily actually got my conditioning right down to a research and came in shredded I could do some harm in 07. I thought then...am I a bodybuilder really? Is normally that where my interest is? My pal, occasional training partner and incredible powerlifter Phil Davi was in the fitness center working out. He talked me into seeing what I got on the bench that day time. Now I hadn't benched weighty in a long time. To say my initiatives were sloppy would be an understatement. However I did so max out in the 455lb range somewhere. For those of you at home and especially us Mufasa types....PLEASE don't get a max out from the crystal clear blue and wonder why you obtain injured. Some people are slow learners just. Phil checked out the existing world records in the alphabet soup of powerlifting agencies and discovered with some schooling, I would be right there and perhaps able to break a global record or 2 in the bench press for my generation and weight course. I actually asked my good friend, fellow article writer, fitness model, fitness competitor, amount competitor, fitness center owner, fitness expert of the entire year, one of the hottest Mothers and hottest women on the planet........drum roll.......... Gina Ostarly what she thought which was her response: "I am 99.9 % sure you ALREADY 'know" the answer...so this is just a 2nd thumbs up...I think.....I always go with my interest....whats in my heart...sounds like yours is in power lifting....always has been...As long as your 2005 injury is healed and can not hinder you...go for the record! The only reason I've not made it back to fitness .....is because my body won't allow it all...We keep getting harm...hell getting old...haha...but, I have not given up....in the suggest time I will be the very best figure competitor I could be.... From the source want Gina how may i not listen. Okay...that I understand now, I am growing older let's implement a few of our fresh found knowledge, in my own quest to set the 50 to 54 age course 220 lb pounds class bench press world record. My recuperative skills are not what they were in the past. I've had to create this concession to age group already. So over-teaching is a large issue around babyboomers. I have been guilty of the especially, In my over zealousness to earn championships, break information, play soccer or what have you I want to go obtain it and throw caution to the wind just. Well, after a torn hamstring, torn bicep, ligament harm in both ankles, sore knees and over all everyday aches and pains. Training: Okay hear we go. People talk to me on a regular basis if I reside in the fitness center or how many hours a day time do I workout?? There is a period when I would train with weights 6 days weekly and do cardio 6 or seven days a week. that was a couple of years ago. The cardio part especially, that was more for sports activities than for appearances. once I used powerlifting I think my just cardio was operating from the couch to the refrigerator. (Gina) Rob, people talk to me the same issue or make the assumption, " all day long must be educated by you, everyday." Well, my secret is CONSISTENCY, as time passes. Its not really about how much you do "this week" or "this month" Getting and residing in form is a prolonged dedication. Its doesn't imply killing yourself all night in the gym, it about creating stability and living realistically. Training 2-3 days weekly CONSISTENTLY will yield a better result in a calendar year than somebody who works out everyday for a week skips 3, functions how hard direct for 3 weeks.....drops off the true face of the planet earth for 2 months....etc....You get my point. My teaching had remained the same for several years basically. Pushes on Mon & Wed - ie.. chest, shoulders, tri's & abs Pulls on Tues & Fri - ie.. back again, bi's and obliques Legs & lower back again on Wed & Sat - Wed will be more squat oriented . Sat will be more deadlift oriented Based on what We was training designed for my weights might vary but also for the the majority of part the scheme was the same. As I stated cardio was as required. EASILY was trying to accomplish something where I needed to move actually. I would run or play basketball. EASILY was training for something where movement wasn't a concern...believe me I wouldn't move. The heaviest I've ever weighed was 277 in 2003. Breathing was a problem, my ex said during the night I snored like a rhino in high temperature. When breathing becomes a nagging problem it may be time to go back to the drawing board. That is while you are still able to draw.....My blood pressure I'm sure was sky high....never had it checked. I was the epitome of the ostrich strategy. Keep my head in the sand and what I don't know won't harm me. Training Mufasa: Ok! For us old lions...what can be done? Get yourself a physical: That's right! First factor head to your Doctor get a complete check-up and make sure that finely tuned or at least soon to be finely tuned machine is ready to go. Shed a few pounds: For the majority of us that is probably the first plan of action. Help to make it less complicated on those muscle tissues and joints (not to mention your mate) and drop a few. In case you are still fighting trim you get yourself a gold star here but I'd like a notice from your own significant other, just in case you're filled with it. Do cardio: I've dropped from an average fat of approx. 265 to now even more in the 225lb range. My heart, my joints, my blood pressure and my puppy Hank (the rhino in heat noises musta taken there toll) are thankful. Although I significantly changed my diet to get right down to 215 for the BB contest. I have since been eating a complete lot more but daily cardio sessions have kept my weight down. Not to mention again the primary muscle, my center (yes I have one) is appreciative. So for all of us Mufasa's cardio is crucial. Listen to the body: Train together with your mind, not over it. No, that can be done over head presses still. Just use common sense in your workout routines. Pass feel whether it's there and you feel like lifting a little heavier go for it. If not. listen to your body. Cool off the heavier weights for a good work out or 2. Don't pressure it! Consider shorter rest periods and go just a little lighter. There are way's of keeping your workout strength without setting world or also personal records. Go for QUALITY not Volume, and yes Rob, always pay attention to your body! Great suggestions. There are therefore many variants of you skill when exercising. Hardly ever feel like you need to "force thru it." Dealing with the big headed attitude could have you pushing for the LAST TIME! Don't overtrain: As I mentioned earlier. I was and at times am still, a habitual overtrainer. This correlates with the above directly. Listen to the body. Over teaching at this stage of the overall game, is more detrimental than when we are younger. As a young child we can get away with a little more. Today all we're gonna obtain is a severe limp and some catabolism on top of that. Seriously, this is not a joke. DO NOT OVERTRAIN. For the majority of us, three resistance training sessions weekly should fill up the bill. Use the K.We.S.S. (keep it basic stupid) in your workouts. Work each muscle mass group once a week. Nutrition: Nourishment is up to 80% of the battle. Breakfast is either the most or second most important meal of the full day. Your post workout meal is definitely it's competition. Be sure to eat protein with each meal. Start your day a good hearty breakfast. This gets the machine which is certainly you in movement. Look at the body as a furnace, you should gasoline it to maintain it burning properly. Obtain it started very first thing each morning (breakfast) and maintain fueling it every 3 hours. Look at a fire, you don't throw all of the logs on simultaneously. Throw a log in at even intervals and it will burn efficiently. Throw them all in simultaneously (supper) and it'll smother and fail. Avoid the All-American meal program. The coffee is known by you and a doughnut for breakfast, more espresso and a Hostess cake off the roach trainer for break period. Deli sandwich, coke and a handbag of chips for lunch. Then devour what ever the heck you may get your hands on for dinner not to mention our 2 Vermont buddies Ben and Jerry or Krispy Kreme (right Gina??) before bed. Post workout beverage: This along with breakfast is very important. Your post workout drink should contain a quality protein drink with some simple carbs (dextrose). More hints You need to take advantage of the window of opportunity right here 30 to 45 min. after your exercise. You body is in an emergency state right here and is preparing to make use of these crucial nutrients. Glucosamine and chondroitin: This have already been a miracle treat for me. Remember they take up to 30 day's to get into your system and don't stop acquiring them once you start to experience better......or back to painsville!!! As you can see a little modification here and there and some common sense is all that is needed!! As Gina so aptly put it " we are getting older but remember all of those other sentence..... AND BETTER"

Brian Orser: everything will be similar for Medvedeva, it is just myself who will be standing near the board from now

May 10th, 2018 - Elena Vaytsekhovskaya

The new coach of a 2-time World Champion Evgenia Medvedeva Brian Orser, who has won the Olympic Silver two times as she has, gave in interview to a special correspondent of RIA Novosti Elena Vaytsekhovskaya, where he told her why he did not hesitate to accept the Russian athlete to his group, where he compared Medvedeva and Yuna Kim and confessed that he was happy that Evgenia’s mom would be coming to Canada with her. 

It was relatively fast to arrange an interview. The only thing that the coach asked when responding to my text message was to call him at a very specific time early in the morning so that we had enough time for the conversation. That’s exactly what I did. 

- I assume that a call from Russia is now the first one that you are receiving

Orser: It is the second one. I have just spoken with Tatiana Tarasova and I have got a sense that she is internally supporting Medvedeva’s decision even if she has not said that directly. I really hope that it is true though. I would like to have an opportunity to ask Tarasova for a piece of advice sometimes. She is an absolutely incredible and a very wise specialist. 

- I was reading about how extremely surprised you were from Medvedeva’s request to accept her into your group. How long did it take you to say “yes”? 

Orser: At the beginning of April, when I received a text message from Zhenya with her request to arrange a meeting in Korea, where she was performing in the show, I responded that there was such an opportunity but I needed some time in order to give her the final answer. That time was needed so that I could speak to Tracy Wilson as we work together in the same team, and then with the rest of the team members including the choreographer David Wilson. We needed to understand how realistic it was for us to incorporate her into the team. We needed to look at the holistic picture and to figure out who was staying, who was leaving, how busy each specialist was, whether I would be able to allocate your athlete a sufficient amount of time that she needed, etc. When we realized that the problem was feasible, we made a decision.   

- Can you explain in details how the work in your club is organized? Let’s say, how many hours are allocated for a top figure skater to train on the ice, how long does each day of training last?

Orser: Our club is unique in a certain way - in the fact that each skater adheres to an individual training program designed specifically for him/her. In general, it involves approximately three hours purely on the ice, plus the rest of the work. Of course, it will take us a certain amount of time to figure out how to train Medvedeva and what aspects we should be mainly focusing on. Those probably will not be the jumps but some other things like the gliding work, which always takes much more time to work on relative to the jumping technique. More specifically, we need to wait until Zhenya comes to Canada, comes to the rink, and I see her on the ice. In the next stage, the most important thing is to prepare her body. That involves a lot of specific versatile work off the ice, which will be done in order to remedy the consequences of those injuries that she has right now as well as her back problems. An athlete has to be really strong in order to move forward. 

- Have you had to deal with the consequences of exercise fractures?

Orser: Of course, but I wouldn't say that such fractures are a common thing. When Yuna Kim first came to my group, she had lots of different kinds of injuries. Mostly, they were related to joints and intervertebral discs. The problems with ankles and the top portion of feet were less severe. For a prolonged period of time, we were dealing with those problems exclusively. Yuna was attending treatment sessions, a specific individual exercise complex was built for her, which helped her to recover so well that she was not feeling any pain while skating. Over the last two years of her career she did not have any serious injuries at all, but if you recall the first two years, Yuna was a walking injury - this is the extent to which Yuna was bothered by pain in the back, legs and hip joints. Therefore, I will not be surprised or scared of anything nowadays. It is just the fact that for a certain period of time we all will have to be very patient. Thankfully, we have enough specialists at our disposal that are able to help skaters to overcome problems of any kind of difficulty. 

- Medvedeva has won World Championships two years in a row. What do you think can make her stronger and give her an ability to make one more step forward?  

Orser: Foremost, it is her body. The body is the primary tool for any athlete. It needs to be strong and fit. Do you know what is important? The fact that Zhenya is a very young athlete, she is only 18 years old. This is the age when an athlete must have a right to his own opinion, when he/she needs to understand that he/she is a full member of the team, to the same extent as any of the coaches working with him/her. I am well aware of Medvedeva’s goal - it is to win the next Olympic Games. There will be three World Championships on our way to those Games. I don’t have a crystal ball so I don’t know whether she is going to win them. The only thing I know is that Medvedeva is at the crossroads right now and our team will make everything possible in order to help her to successfully overcome this period.  

She has been taught a lot of things wonderfully, especially considering her jumps. She has a good head, and in a sense, you can say that she is thick-skinned psychologically. Plus Zhenya knows how to compete and loves it. Such competitor is not a present for anyone. In this regard, Medvedeva reminds me of Yuna Kim a lot. 

At the same time, I see a lot of room for improving some aspects of Zhenya’s skating and making them stronger. Yes, it requires time, strength, and intelligence, but I am happy that Zhenya is internally ready herself for this journey. She has a desire and, as you understand, it is the most important thing for an athlete. 

- Tatiana Tarasova, who you have mentioned earlier, during the years of her active work once said that she never took an athlete without understanding the reason why he/she left the previous coach. Have you asked Medvedeva questions regarding this topic?

Orser: No. Zhenya was talking about her previous coaching team with a great respect and she made it clear right away that she was not going to assess her previous work in a negative way. I feel it is a logical decision. If a skater has been winning consecutively for two years, his preparation, globally speaking, must have been proper, correct? I don’t think I will be mistaken by saying that every single coach in the world wants to understand how Eteri Tutberidze keeps producing new female athletes of such a high level. How does she manage to do that? What is that special thing that she is doing at her training sessions?

- Nevertheless, you did not sound very optimistic in your statement about the current World Junior Champion Alexandra Trusova by calling her (and that is with two quadruple jumps!) a short-term project. 

Orser: Not quite. That conversation was about the potential increase of the age limit in ladies’ skating. I was saying that girls and adult ladies like Carolina Kostner and Yuna Kim are two absolutely different categories of female skaters. I don’t have anything against 13-year-old skaters who are doing quads. Remember how at Worlds in Milan you asked me whether I would like the International Skating Union (ISU) to raise the age limit and I responded “No”? I can repeat the same thing. In my group, I have a 13-year old boy who is jumping quadruple jumps, all of them. The longevity in sports is always a highly individualistic question for every athlete. Some athletes mature and develop later than the others, and some - earlier. Personally, I prefer an adult skating but I am not saying that quadruple jumps at the age of 13 or 14, no matter whether we are talking about boys or girls, are a bad thing. Another question is that we, as coaches, must be careful with the body of an athlete when he/she is growing up and his/her joints are still developing. 

- The question has another point: do you consider quadruple jumps to be a possibility in adult ladies’ skating? Does it make any sense to strive for them?

Orser: I don’t have an answer to this question. And as I have said, I don’t have a crystal ball. And it is probably for the best. So we will have to wait and see how ladies’ figure skating will be further developing and whether it will copy the trends that we are observing in men’s skating today. The only thing I can say with confidence is that the female body is significantly different from the male one. That's why the increase in difficulty is happening at a much slower pace. Whether we are aiming for it -  I also cannot answer this unequivocally. I see my coaching goal, first of all, in the development of ladies’ skating. In this regard, I believe that Kaetlyn Osmond, Gabby Daleman, Carolina Kostner, Yuna Kim represent the best examples of that. These are the names that make history.

- Does Medvedeva’s transition to you mean that all her programs will be choreographed by David Wilson from now on?

Orser: In Toronto, we are unspeakably fortunate to have several quite outstanding directors in range who all work in different styles. I am sure that there other professionals of this level and class in Japan, in Europe, and in Russia, where it is not always easy to come from Canada. But we don’t need that: we have Wilson, we have Shae-Lynn Bourne, we have Lori Nichol, we have Jeffrey Buttle. Yuzuru (Hanyu) mostly works with Shae-Lynn and Jeffrey, Javi (Javier Fernández) - with David only, exactly as Yuna Kim did before. At this stage, I would like to try using similar choreographic practices with Medvedeva that were successfully tried out on Kim. 

- How does that look like - do you usually provide certain recommendations to an athlete or do you wait for a skater to decide which choreographer he/she wants to be working with?

Orser: It depends on the situation for each individual case. When we were only starting our work with Hanyu, David was the one responsible for all his staging. It took Yuzuru some time to realize that he wanted to try something new in terms of choreography. That is how Shae-Lynn came about and it worked - there was an instant creativity chemistry between them. And Javi has an excellent chemistry with David Wilson - they have always been able to discover some truly amazing things together. At the same time, I always take part in the process: I help them out with the music choice, costume design, I work with the choreographers taking care of steps and transitions and explaining the specifics of jump entries. You can’t build a program without understanding what kind of entry allows you to better incorporate an axel or a lutz into the program. 

- I would like to apologize whether the question sounds indecorous but could you explain how the financial side of partnership works - does a skater pay for the entire range of services, or for the work of each specialist individually? 

Orser: At our club, it is customary to charge per hour of work. This is not a Canadian but rather a North American style adopted in the USA. I have my own rate, Tracy has her own, similarly to David Wilson. Conditionally speaking, everyone is well aware of how much short and free program staging costs. Likewise, Lori (Nichol) and Jeffrey (Buttle) have their own rates. At the same time, the use of ice is unlimited in our club - if needed, a skater can use it for eight hours per day. It is important because a lot of kids attend school and need to vary their training time - some of them prefer to skate early in the morning, some - in the afternoon, some - in the evening. 

- Who designs costumes for your athletes’ programmes?

Orser: It is a great question. I don’t know. I know that David knows people so when he stages programmes, he can explain to a master by himself how he portrays a character. Some skaters have contracts with their own designers, and not necessarily with the Canadian ones. The main aspect is that it should be convenient for everyone, and especially for an athlete.

- Have you thought about with competitions you would like to see Medvedeva on?

Orser: I wouldn't say that my ideas are substantially different from the generally accepted ones. Firstly, we have to see how out summer goes and based on that we will be making our decisions. I would like to see Zhenya performing on one of the series B tournaments in early fall - it might be Autumn Classic, Finlandia Open, or something else. After that, we are planning two Grand Prix series and, of course, the Russian Championships. In other words, everything that Medvedeva used to compete at in previous years. The only difference will be me standing near the board. 

- Are you planning on travelling to Russia with Medvedeva?

Orser: Of course. I understand that we are not living in the ideal world, I have other skaters and their competitions might overlap. In that case, me, Tracy, and David will have to plan our travelling. But ideally, of course, I would like to personally be taking Medvedeva out on the ice. 

- I forgot to ask - is Zhenya’s mom planning on coming to Canada?

Orser: I am counting on that, honestly speaking. It is quite important for me. As far as I could understand, Zhenya is very close to her mom, I don’t think anyone knows her better than Zhanna. As we say, she is a mother number one. It is a great assistance for a coach. I think we can do it.

“The Roll Model”: Path-Breaking “Self-Care Healthcare” (book review)

Countless publications promise to offer some remarkable new collection of devices to help us live healthier, happier, and much more equipped lives. Disappointingly couple of, nevertheless, supply more than a slightly brand-new spin on some stock self-help approach spiced up with a recycled understanding or more. Jill Miller's recently released The Roll Model: A Step-by-Step Overview of Eliminate Discomfort, Enhance Wheelchair, and also Live Much better in Your Body ( Success Belt, 2014), however, proves an amazing exemption to the regulation. This 432-page, thoroughly composed and also magnificently highlighted publication sets out a detailed new system of "self-care healthcare" that's based in scientific research, sharpened by experience, as well as shown by a remarkable track document of success.

True to its title, the "roll version" method essentially contains targeted self-massage performed by "rolling" on a collection of four different, specifically designed treatment spheres. These spheres, which range from 2.5 - 9 inches in diameter, are made of grippy rubber that connects well with the skin, and supply enough "provide" to permit the body to loosen up around them under pressure. The standard theory and also method behind the "roll version" approach is relatively easy: that is, if we learn just how to do our own deep tissue massage therapy, we can open locations of our bodies that have become stuck in useless motion patterns, recover their correct feature, as well as stimulate the body's natural capability for self-healing.

Given the intricacy of the human body-mind complicated, however, converting this basic understanding right into a practical program and also getting it all down on paper is neither a simple neither easy task. The Roll Model, however, not just does it perfectly, however surpasses the "how you can" details of the technique to interact a larger vision. The very first sentence of Jill's Introduction, for instance, emphasizes that the "U.S. has 4.6% of the globe's populace as well as eats 80% of the world's painkilling opiate supply." While some such medications are definitely necessitated, a lot of are utilized to take care of pain brought on by useless body characteristics that might be recovered normally through appropriate self-care. The owning interest of The Roll Model is to offer us the knowledge, tools, and ideas needed to recover ourselves - and, in the procedure, in order to help cure the epidemic of lifestyle-induced illness that negatively impacts so several lives today.

Detailed and Comprehensive

The heart of The Roll Model consists of 18 self-massage sequences that target details locations of the body (reduced back, elbow joint, jaw, and so on), essentially varying from go to toe. Each series is made to take about 10-20 mins, and consists of a series of "rolling" moves discussed through step-by-step instructions and pictures. In presenting each series, guide nicely lists the 1) required props, 2) key muscular tissues and also bony spots involved, as well as 3) standard therapy ball positioning. A preliminary "check in" posture, such as a forward fold, is also provided, which is then duplicated as a "recheck" after the series to examine shifts in the body. Beyond the treatment balls themselves, the only props required are a flooring, wall surface, chair, and also yoga exercise floor covering and also blocks.

Remarkably, nonetheless, this core collection of series, that includes almost 200-pages of material, isn't presented till the 8th (from an overall of 11) phase of guide. Instead of rushing right into the core information of the method, The Roll Model very first systematically constructs the foundation necessary to recognize and also deal with it in a deeply experienced method. In so doing, the publication makes use of a multi-modal layout that consists of clinical information, individual tales, user-friendly suggestions, physiological illustrations, explanations of body auto mechanics, and beautiful photos of real-life "roll/role designs" representing a wide variety of body types.

This variety of approaches is quite handy because it supplies several ways where visitors with various rate of interests and needs can attach with the text. Whether you're amazed or burnt out by anatomy, as an example, you could find a way right into the multidimensional conversation of body dynamics and self-care The Roll Model supplies. Then, you can examine as much or little of that particular component of it as you wish. In any case, having actually been revealed to the product, you could quickly go back and refer to it later. In this feeling, the vast array of info in The Roll Model makes it not just a sensible self-care guide, but also a long-lasting reference on useful activity and also the body.

Specific subjects gone over in information include:

Improving posture: Common postural problems, just how they adversely impact the body, as well as the best ways to construct healthy and balanced alignment.

Differentiating pain: Distinguishing in between intense feeling that belongs to the healing process and pain that signals over-exertion and potential harm.

Functional anatomy: The relevance of fascia as well as proprioception, and ways to browse 36 "bony landmarks" as well as 44 essential muscular tissues in the body.

Therapy ball techniques: Standard steps as well as why they function (continual compression, cross-fibering, contract/relax, etc.)

Importance of breath: Why breath is important to physical and mental health, and how you can enhance stomach and thoracic breathing.

Emotions and bodywork: How as well as why working with the body and also breath can be mentally and also emotionally therapeutic.

Conscious relaxation: How to down-regulate the nerve system and spark the parasympathetic response, and also why this is seriously important.

Complementary training: Combining the "roll version" method with various other techniques to get rid of "harmful activity settings and also body stagnation" and improve overall health and wellness.

Personal Stories

A total amount of 22 "personal success stories” are also peppered throughout guide. Ranging from 1-4 pages, these detailed initial person accounts define processes of treating or substantially enhancing a large range of physical and/or mental problems using the "roll model" method. People profiled include a body builder, solider, and rape survivor, issues resolved include lupus, diabetes mellitus, scleroderma, MS, excessive weight, clinical depression, and persistent pain. Although some stories appear absolutely nothing short of amazing, they nevertheless appear quite believable. With each other, they develop a motivating testimony to exactly what can be accomplished through decision, effort, and also the knowledge and tools had to activate the body's all-natural recovery response.

The Roll Model also functions individual reflections from Jill Miller herself that should be of specific interest to yoga practitioners. Jill discloses that when she was more youthful, her yoga exercise technique functioned as an unintended source of self-harm by supporting routines of disordered eating and "uncontrollable over-stretching." Owned by a devastating feeling of personal inadequacy, she states, yoga exercise came to be "an addiction that was destabilizing almost every joint in my body." Today, having actually broken this pattern and created her very own approaches of therapeutic yoga exercise, activity, and also self-care, Jill cautions that "simply since you can do a present does not suggest that you should.” She additionally warns that it's all-too-common to teach yoga in ways that will certainly harm students by asking to execute recurring series without adequate biomechanical accuracy. Predictably, this creates injury: "When you repeat activities with poor type over and also over once again, your body eventually breaks."

A Must-Have Resource

The Roll Model is an unusual and also excellent work. A lot of centrally, it provides an initial system of all natural self-care that has actually been successfully made use of by individuals varying from elite professional athletes to persistent illness victims. In addition, it presents a wide range of important information on body framework and characteristics that can be made use of both as a day-to-day overview and lasting recommendation job. Finally, The Roll Model shares inspiring tales of self-care, recovery, and also healing, while advocating for the enhancement of public wellness and the systems that support it today.

As such, The Roll Model is truly a must-have book for health and also physical fitness professionals such as yoga instructors, body workers, individual fitness instructors, physical specialists, and also others. It will also, naturally, advantage any person that is completely positive as well as determined to function the "roll version" series independently. That claimed, there are definitely a great deal of people that desperately need the techniques showed in The Roll Model, however are likely to feel overloaded by the level of detail given. Because of this, I really hope Jill Miller will create an abridged "Roll Version, Junior" variation of guide. In the meanwhile, nonetheless, The Roll Model offers an invaluable source for any individual that prepares to expand their self-care repertoire, or functions to sustain others in sustaining ideal health.
