Does Posture Really Matter?
We’ve all been told to “sit up straight” and “fix our posture,” but what if posture isn’t the real problem? The truth is, your body doesn’t need perfect alignment—it needs more movement. In this post, Dr. Cory from Momentum Spine and Sport shares why the best posture isn’t a fixed position at all… it’s your next posture.
Is Core Stability the Answer to Low Back Pain?
Core stability can play an important role in managing low back pain, especially early on in care. But stability isn’t the full answer. We’re not built to stay stiff—we’re designed to twist, bend, and move. The key to lasting relief is learning control first, then reintroducing dynamic movement so you can get back to living without limits.
Why Generic Exercise Sheets Don’t Work
There’s no such thing as a one-size-fits-all exercise plan. Two people can have the same injury but completely different goals—and their rehab should reflect that. At Momentum Spine and Sport, we don’t hand out cookie-cutter exercise sheets. We create personalized plans built around you—so you’re not just recovering, you’re getting back to the life you want to live.
The Truth About Sciatica: Why Numbness and Tingling Don’t Mean You’re Broken
Sciatica can feel scary—shooting pain, tingling, or numbness down your leg might make you wonder if something’s seriously wrong. The truth? Numbness and tingling don’t mean you’re broken. In fact, most cases of sciatica improve with the right movement-based care. At Momentum Spine and Sport, we focus on finding the root cause and giving you a plan that lasts—so you can get back to living without limits.
The “Short Leg” Myth: Why It’s Not the Root of Your Pain
Being told one of your legs is “shorter” than the other might sound like a convincing reason for back or hip pain—but it’s not. Research shows small leg length differences are normal, have no link to pain, and yet people spend crazy amounts of money chasing lifts, inserts, and quick fixes that don’t work. The truth is, pain is more about how you move, load, and recover—not about millimeters of difference in your legs.
Spinal Manipulation for Back Pain: Helpful Tool or Overhyped?
Spinal manipulation can provide short-term relief for back pain — easing stiffness and helping you move more freely. But research shows it’s not a long-term solution on its own. The real key to lasting results lies in movement and education: building strength, improving mobility, and understanding your body. At Momentum Spine and Sport, we combine adjustments with active strategies that keep you in control of your health.
