Yeah, I love talking about it because you're right. Like we as humans, we tend to move in a unilateral, like just a very forward and back manner. Every lift is forward and back. Right. You push or pull. Right. Squat. I mean, listen, it's up or down. Right. But it's still very one dimensional. And.

we are multi-dimensional humans i i describe it to my patients as such like we we can do one dimensional movements we can do two dimensional movements and three dimensional movements through our spine right one dimension is just forward back two dimensions is forward and let's say to the side and three dimensions forward side with rotation and we our bodies need to be acclimated to that and that is something that i took over from the dancing world

Because in dancing, your spine is twisting and bending and flexing and extending. Through all imaginable possible ranges of motion that your spine can do, ballroom dancing gets done, all of it. And when I entered the rehab space, I was like, why is nobody doing it? Why are people doing clamshells, glute bridges? and like hamstring stretches. And that is the recipe for pain relief in most offices.

I was like, what is this nonsense? Their spine is supposed to bend. It's supposed to do stuff. What is this craziness? Your erector muscle groups, I mean, your... All these muscles that come from your tail, like right above your tailbone, line of spine. Some of them go up into your neck. Some of them go into your mid-back, thoracic spine.

Some of them go underneath your shoulder blades, along your rib cage. These muscles that support us, that literally support every spinal segment, extends, rotates, and side bends. Right? Either some or all of those motions, but at least two or three out of them. And we don't do that. Yep. And if our body is designed to do X, we must do X. Anything short of X will lead to problems. Yep.
