No Hip Replacement Needed!!

No Hip Replacement Needed!! 

 A local patient presented to his medical doctor 6 months ago with hip pain that got worse while walking. The pain was knife-like and started to effect his walking and lifting of his leg. His medical doctor scheduled X-rays, physical therapy and pain management. After 6 months this patient continued to get worse, had no relief and was becoming very frustrated with the inability to resume normal activity. His doctors decided to schedule him for a hip replacement as they could think of nothing else to do with him.  

A friend of the patient suggested that he get evaluated by the incredible team at Legacy Clinic. The doctors at Legacy Clinic immediately found tendonosis of the iliotibial band (IT Band) and started to treat it appropriately. This band attaches in the lateral portion of the knee and inserts into the lateral portion of the hip. Walkers, bikers and individuals with lack of proper motion can develop shortening of this tendon which can mimic hip damage and hip degeneration.   

After 4 treatments of therapeutic ultrasound, Graston soft tissue technique and manual adjustments this patient made a full recovery and has resumed normal activity again. 

This patient only wishes he had found Legacy Clinic several months ago.

Feel Dizzy or Lightheaded?

Vertigo Corrected 

A patient came in last week with symptoms and warning signs that kept getting worse. It started with a headache which lead to vertigo symptoms of extreme dizziness and spinning like sensations. This then lead to numbness down the right arm and partial loss of vision. 

She began to panic and thought she was having a stroke. Her doctor even suspected that she had a brain tumor or had suffered a stroke. MRI testing was negative for any findings. Her neurologist began treating the symptoms with medication, but she became even worse. She began to think that she was just going to have to deal with these problems for the rest of her life since nobody knew what was going on.

This patient came into Legacy Clinic desperate for answers. Upon examination the doctors found the top cervical vertebra that protects the brainstem and controls all automatic reflexes to be severely misaligned. This vertebra, under the professionally trained hands of the doctors of Legacy Clinic,  was carefully realigned to allow the nerve pressure that had been built up to be released back to its normal state. Over the next 12 hours the patients vertigo symptoms, vision problems, and neurological issues began to diminish.

When there is pressure on one of your spinal nerves your body will give off symptoms based on the location.

The Miracle Supplement for Allergies

Antronex

It regulates histamine levels, and it helps the liver filter them out of the body. It opens the airways and allows the body to receive higher oxygen levels.

What people are saying….

“Antranex is the only antihistamine that I use. I have seasonal allergies and antranex stops sneezing, running nose, and red eyes.”

“I have sinus issues and anytime I am having sinus problems due to allergies or a cold, I take antranex and within 5 min my sinuses are clear.”

“I suffer from asthma and Antranex helps open up my airways.”

“Antranex is the miracle pill for sinus issues. I highly recommend this to anyone with sinus headaches, sneezing, running nose, and any other allergy symptoms.”

How to Warm Up Properly

   Athletes around Central Florida have been asking me what is the best way to stretch before activity or a sporting event. The best way is to stretch in motion. A warm muscle will not strain. Most people stretch statically and this puts the muscles to sleep and sets you up for injury. Static stretching is best to do after activity to help the muscle fibers recover.

The following is my pre-activity routine I recommend to athletes around the world.

1. Jog (20 yards)

2. Run back wards (20 yards)

3. High knees (20 yards)

4. Butt kicks (20 yards)

5. Lunges (20 yards)

6. Leg up to swing and touch opposite hand (alternate arm and leg) (20 yards)

7. Side Steps (over imaginary fence) (20 yards)

8. High knee and external rotating leg while stepping. (Alternate legs) (20 yards)

9. Arms (large circles) 20 seconds 

10. Arms (small circles) 20 seconds
