Will the McKenzie Method Help My Back Pain? - Apex Ortho - Spine Specialist - North Jersey #backpain
The McKenzie Method is one of the main techniques that Tom uses to help our patients recover from neck or back pain here at Apex. In the video, we walk you through a mock McKenzie evaluation, step by step, with a person experiencing lower back pain.
The McKenzie approach is an excellent natural way to assess your pain before going in for surgery, taking pills, or getting injections. With the right therapist, you should have a much clearer picture of the root cause of your pain or at the very least, a referral or recommendation to see someone who can take the next step with you.
Hopefully, after watching this video, you should have a better understanding of what a McKenzie evaluation involves and feel more confident before you go for you're appointment.

Thank you
What position should I sleep in if I suffer from this and is it better to stand/walk all day than to lie down?
Its hard to figure out if I am up right or flaring to compensate for lack of mobility tho!
These exercises also hepled me to fix my problem! Unfortunately my physio also recommend insoles for my shoes...Got splint shins from them...Be careful when it comes to insoles!
Thank you, i will try to fix my problem with your exercise❤
Best of luck!
Hang me upside down like a bat. It so painful when I get it and as I'm getting older it's getting worse I had for 7 years on and off my doctor say it's it will go away by itself to go home and rest but I had no tests done or seen a specialist doctor so how can my doctor say it's sciatica for sure
thank you. i have a backyard ultra in 2 months and not training properly since 6 weeks. hope it works.
I hope so too!
What do you think of the chin tuck variant where you mostly just tuck the chin in without translating the head back? moving the head back causes pain for me.
It may help. You may have to do a different direction like side bend or rotation. When the common recommendations don’t work you probably need a evaluation by MDT trained therapist
Thank you, i get so sore after driving for an hour. Got a 6 hour drive to vermont this weekend.
Tell us how you do.
Excellent and well explained. I have had intermittent periods of Sciatica from 18 to my current 70 years of age. Sleeping lying down on the affected side has become worse these past few years even though I am active for my age. Any tips please? Many thanks. Henry
I would start with a physical therapy evaluation. I’m partial to a physical therapist certified in McKenzie method. Also, looking at stress, nutrition and sleep . Hope this helps. If you are close to northern new jersey we could look at you.
If it degenerative from lack of collagen and you’re over 50 whereby generating collagen is greatly reduced…what does that mean for your senior years ahead and these exercises to stimulate strength and building of collagen but you’re older?
My chiropractor stated that because of my occupation, truck drivers are mostly due to posture and the way our shoulders are positioned while gripping the steering wheel.
I've been having pain from the thumb through the neck for the last 7 months brought on by repetitive motion injury at work. One doc thought it was radial styloid tenosynovitis, one thought thoracic outlet syndrome, another ruled that out. Emg came back normal, x-ray was normal for wrist but for cervical spine revealed endplate osteophytes, mild disc space narrowing at c5-c6, and moderately severe uncovertabral arthropathy. Dry needling hasn't helped much, nor has physical therapy. Any suggestions on what it could be or where to go from here?
I would consult a local certified or diploma McKenzie physical therapist. Do you want the link to find a provider?
@@apexmovebetterSure. Thank you!
Did you crack your back at 6:49?
Audio issue. Don’t remember cracking my back.lol
What if you can't do this without back spasms? Do you just rest until that improves then give it a go?
You may need to adjust your angle or it is not the right corrective exercise.
I dont slowly down i have dogs
does sciatica pain switch from right leg to left leg
It can .

I have carpal tunnel syndrome for 17 years, I couldn't even hold a paper & I had a cortisone injection that time, and I feel fine for 13 years till I have a bulging disc on (c5, c6, c7).

I have bucket seat / racing seat in my car , i can not exit the car without damaging my nerve in my left thigh ..... just one trip entering the car and exiting the car makes me sick for 2 weeks and i can not move , how the hell are people supposed to exit a car with bucket seats without getting this nerve damage in the thigh ..... ! the huge side tip of the bucket seat digs right in to the under side of the thigh each time i exit the car : (
I am 29 yrs old. I've medial meniscus tear since 2 years. Can I go on trekking of mild to moderate difficulty.

Can I exercise it with a swollen it band?
My test says I have very severe CT, nerve pinched in my elbow, and some coming from c 5-6 level. Hands are bad quick but can't have surgery yet because I have a weird lung disease.
I have suspected meniscus tear and it’s been bothering me for months. Recently started cycling slowly and surprisingly the discomfort seems to be fading away! 😮
That is my solution. Had a tear for over 16 years
@@apexmovebetter can it heal within months with proper treatment & therapy?
this is called bhujangasan in yoga and it is indeed very good for back pain
Great
Very well explained Jenny
Thanks
I'm about to start PT for possible IT Band Syndrome. My Dr ordered one month of PT and then an MRI if pain isn't getting better. (Possible meniscus tear. Had prior ACL/meniscus surgery) Hoping this stuff works!
Tell us how you do
So if a bump apears under your skin of your Achilles and affects your walking can that be a tear? I’m waiting on my mri
Thanks for the information I had tried several times during the video talk seems to be something will work for my pain.
Good luck!

What if you have pain on muscles on the inside of the elbow?
Probably medial epicondylitis aka golfers elbow.
@@apexmovebetter I just looked it up and found his other video on it 😭😂 Thank you though I appreciate it, it’s definitely that. I’m actually super glad because they say apparently the heal time is like 10x worse for tennis elbow
i get pain just below my hips , and i feel it when walking , and i tend to have to pull on the hand rail when going upstairs , also very painful if i stand on one leg ,
May be related hip weakness.
I've had ulnar nerve decompression without transposition in both arms. Had left hand carpal tunnel surgery this morning, right hand last month. I did get alot of relief, however I have cervical degenerative disc disease advanced osteoarthritis and still have pain down both arms. I'll be getting the anterior discotomy and fusion by end of year. I go in 2 weeks for an endoscopic rhizotomy in my lumbar spine. The neck and back can cause crazy pain in crazy place.
Good luck.
You almost had me! Exercises 2 & 3 are the exact same. Editing error?
Correct! Oops.
How does cycling compare to the 2024 fashion of using the sledge for knee rehab? Both push and pull. I work out 4 times a week and not sure if I should just do cycling 4 times a week or mix it up with the sledge. I know the easy answer is to say mix it up but I have tried sledging in the past and didn't notice any benefits from it. I did get hot and sweaty and my legs warm so I guess the benefit was blood flow but not sure if the bike is better bang for buck. Thoughts?
Why I feel my muscle is overlapping with other muscle on proximal end on lateral thigh and clicking sound is also audible
The thought is the two bands of the ITband are put on tension in different points of range of motion at the knee simulating a slipping or cracking noise.
I have this
Sorry to hear
Whoever says: I bear witness that there is no god but Allah alone, with no partner, and that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger, and that Jesus is the servant of Allah, and the son of his nation, and His word that He conveyed to Mary and a spirit from Him, and that Paradise is true, and that Hell Indeed, God admitted him through any of the eight gates of Paradise He wished. .
And your question is…..

I am Uber driver and spend 6 to 7 hours in my car . I definitely needs lumbar support. Thansks
No problem
The pain is WAY to intense for this. I tried to auffer through one good time, bit i hid the floor in extreme pain. I cannot touch my face no matter how hard i try, and arm physically will not straighten
i have this issue but am not a cyclist or runner at all. I wonder how I got this
It may not be the ITband that is the issue.
Crap
Harsh.
How long does it take for full relief after doing these exercises ? One three weeks ? Thanks
It can take 6-8 weeks. You should see changes in degree of pain after 2-3 weeks.
@@apexmovebetter thanks 🙏
Praise the algorithm for recomending this!
