Important joint work can be done during massages. Every joint in our body is like a door: when functioning properly, it regulates and allows energy to flow. Symbolically, each joint is connected to a specific stage in our personal growth and fulfillment 🪷🙏🏻

Joint health is the foundation nobody builds until it cracks. Knees. Shoulders. Hips. Ankles. Invest in mobility now. 5 minutes a day prevents the damage most people spend thousands treating later. Prehab beats rehab. Always. #fitness #mobility #joints

Renovating and Regenerating Damaged Joint Cartilage. Stanford orthopedic surgery researchers find that blocking a protein allows cartilage to regenerate. #cartilage #joints #pain #jointreplacement

Howard G. Smith MD, AM on Instagram: "Renovating Damaged Joint Cartilage Once joint cartilage is damaged or simply wears away it doesn’t heal. Patients are offered pain relief and, eventually if necessary, joint replacement. Stanford orthopedic surgery researchers now report in the journal Science a breakthrough that leads to cartilage regeneration. They find that blocking an protein called 15-PGDH, short for 15-hydroxy prostaglandin dehydrogenase, that increases with aging, permits cartilage regrowth in older mice and in those with knee injuries. The blocking drug also triggers cartilage regeneration in mice and in human knee cartilage samples obtained from patients undergoing knee replacement surgery. An oral version of this 15-PGDH blocking drug is now available for clinical trials. Hopefully, this agent may reduce the need for joint replacements…..someday soon, https://scitechdaily.com/anti-aging-injection-regrows-knee-cartilage-and-prevents-arthritis/ https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adx6649 #cartilage #joints #pain #jointreplacement"

Knobbly thumb joint got more obvious last night. Distinctly stiffer than the other thumb and a bit painful too. They weren’t painful before (the other knobble is my middle finger, both left hand). The other one is worse than I remember too.

At least it doesn’t affect typing. I couldn’t think which fingers I use to type and now I see it’s the middle of each hand, at least on the iPad. Don’t need to bend my fingers to type 🤷🏻‍♀️

How does arthritis manifest itself?
Arthritis is characterized by pain in the joints. Often these pains get worse at night and lessen in the morning.

And by nice I mean, no sore, no overthinking and I can concentrate

The Power of Active Recovery 🙆‍♂️

Active recovery isn’t a filler day or a “day off you still feel guilty about.” It’s a strategic part of the growth process.

1️⃣ Active Recovery Boosts Blood Flow (Your Built-In Repair System)

2️⃣ It Reduces Stiffness Without Adding More Fatigue

3️⃣ It Keeps Your Metabolism and Muscle Activation Awake

4️⃣ It Helps Manage Stress and Lowers Cortisol
