Many adults are currently struggling with this issue. Recurring pain that is not properly addressed can dramatically decrease your quality of life so it should not be ignored.

There are a number of different reasons why neck pain occurs, but the mostly common causes are sports and other accidental injuries such as car accidents or the gradual effect of poor daily postures we adopt in our work and home lives.

Dance & Gymnastics

Dance and gymnastics continue to gain in popularity, whether for competition or pleasure.

Both children and adults of all ages are getting involved in these dynamic and fun physical activities.

However, both of these activities move the body through more range of motion than in our regular day, and can involve very precise body movements and more balancing skills than some people realize.

In order to safely engage in dance or gymnastics with style, balance, and grace it is important to become properly conditioned physically and to know how to prevent unnecessary ankle, wrist, knee, or foot injuries.

Understanding Tendonitis

Tendonitis refers to acute inflammation of a tendon or the tendon sheath.

Tendinosis refers to excessive wear and tear to a tendon without inflammation present.

Recurring tendon problems are quite common, especially in individuals who play high impact sports.

In particular, running injuries account for about 30 percent of all tendon issues, while another 40 percent is caused by repetitive tennis-type (racquet or club) injuries.
