@dr.dan_dpt: This is the last week in July that I will be reposting one of my old videos. This is still something I see on a daily basis so I know it is still useful info! #physicaltherapy
Trying to explain “you are tight becuase you are weak” to patients is exhausting 😂

Allison Tennyson :
NO!!! I’m tired of bridging! 😭😭😭 I was really hoping you’d say something else. All I ever do is bridge. I’ve been bridging in PT since 2017. And every few months when I go back to PT, my PT is like, ‘have you ever done bridging?’ Yes. Yes, I have. But, I have dystonia in my feet and legs. So, bridging triggers my dystonia, which causes me to be noncompliant… 💔

If you are super flexible is stretching pointless?

Yesss 👏 so many hypermobile patients get stuck in the stretch loop. Strength = control = freedom. Preach it, Dr. Dan! 💪🧠

Can you show regressions on both of these. I have older clients that might not be able to bridge that high.

I am now following you and will be studying all you TikToks 😌 I just found out that I‘m hypermobile and EVERYTHING makes sense 🥺 stretching does NOTHING. And all the physios being like: wow you‘re tense everywhere, why? I DONT KNOW 😂 I stretch a lot

Yep I have eds and when I was little I basically got kicked out of dance class cause I was so stiff, that’s one of the reasons it took so long to find my eds cause in my medical chart it said I was abnormally stiff so they thought there was no way I was hypermobile

I feel like every tendon in my body is inflamed, especially the ones on my arms and legs. I’ve tried stretching and end up having to take some painkillers, do you have any good exercises for it?

Melody Maria :
I’m about to start taking this stupid physical therapy education myself because I NEED TO UNDERSTAND THE OBSESSION WITH BRIDGES AND HOW TIGHTNESS IS FIXED WITH STRENGTHENING AND WHY NO ONE WILL TELL ME WHAT MUSCLES ARE THE PROBLEM INSTEAD OF “have you tried random exercise 4 for three years” while I’m finding out noW from tiktok after 15 years of back pain what ilipsoas muscles are
