Thank you so much for this content. I have followed your videos for a while now.
I have both spondy and herniated discs and have seen multiple physios, doctors, surgeons and chiros and they cant seem to all agree on which is causing all the symptoms. Also none of them understand that I am a father of little ones, a martial artist and a power lifter and this has absolutlely devastated me. The pain and mobility has improved so much in the last year but I still cant lay down on stomach or sides, run, jump, weirdly can't swim, hang (which most swore should help) or or do anything very physically demanding (although getting back to gym has helped more than any of the specialists combined). I'm at a loss and don't know what to do. I just want to be normal again. Thanks again, thanks for reading my rambling lol
Most likely you will need to find a neutral spine position that includes posterior pelvic tilting to some degree, and then build that position to include any corrections needed in rotation, lateral flexion and the 3 translation planes- all based on an analysis of your posture/movement habits and spinal stability issues. Once you learn proper neutral alignment, you then add corrections/activations/inhibitions to the local and global stabilizing muscles such a s multifidus, lats, obliques, etc. From here, you practice holding your tailored neutral spine position with stability as you challenge it with different movements, instability challenges ( unstable surfaces), and then progress through a conditioning program to meet your sport and daily activity demands. Many of the programs at painfreeandfit.com will guide you through this (Fast Track Program For Spondylolisthesis probably best for you) , or you may option to work with a rehab specialist one on one to make sure you are doing it all correctly. If you still need help, feel free to sign up for a zoom consult with me and I can walk you through the analysis and your basic neutral spine training (Info also at painfreeandfit.com.) I hope this gives you some direction.
Mine is this way . L5S1 bulge with spondy . Guess the vertebrae above the L5 is slipping forward a tad . I can’t see it in my MRI . When I tuck my tailbone, I feel a horrible pulling sensation from the L5 S1 area up to around T 10. The surgeon is recommending that I have surgery, but I’d like to avoid it. I’m really hoping all these exercises can help me. Thank you so much!😊
Thanks for supporting us with your unique experience from all över the world
It's my pleasure, Thank you!
I was thinking it would pinch as well. It doesn’t make sense to just bend back and expect it to slide in if there are vertebrae mashing on it. A.k.a. pinching. Thank you for pointing this out!
You are very welcome
Great Video, thanks
Thank you so much-glad it was helpful!
I found out I have spondy level 1 and herniated L5-S1. My L5 is slightly forward. Does my herniated disc have less chance of healing? I feel great in the day, but my night walk is not always great. I'm an athlete in great shape.
Herniated discs and spondylolisthesis go together very commonly. The best chances of healing are based on improving your body mechanics, posture, movement and spinal stability conditioning through a customized rehab program to decrease the daily stress on L5/S1
