By Scorca

Why Stretching Isn’t Fixing Your Tight Muscles If you’re stretching regularly but still feel tight, sore, or restricted, you’re not alone.

Age Smarter

By Scorca

Scar Tissue after Surgery

By Scorca

Scar tissue is part and parcel of post-surgery recovery- in fact, it is the only way you can heal. Despite what some medical professionals will have you believe, scar tissue is very likely not the cause of post-operative pain as there are no nerve endings in the new tissue. However, the new tissue is less elastic than the…

Many adults are in the same boat: more work and less physical activity combine with…

Preventing Low Back Pain

By Scorca

Lumbar: the very word itself usually conjures an association with pain. That’s because we rarely ever talk about the lumbar region unless it is already causing us pain, and this attitude is symbolic of all self-inflicted afflictions of the lower back: for example, think of all the times people have told you to sit up…
