Tendinitis is a condition caused by an inflammation of the connective tissue that connects your muscles to your skeleton. It can be caused by repetitive stresses placed on your tendons, a shortening of the connective tissue as a result of aging or placing too much stress on a tendon.

The primary determinant of health for the average person is thought. Not genetics, not exercise or nutrition, but the mind. This has been shown over and over again by the scientific fields of psychoneuroimmunology, psychoneurocardiology, psychoneuroendocrinology, not to mention cancer research and all the various psychosomatic disorders that have been studied.

The nature of care-giving can place great physical stress on you as the caregiver. Practicing proper body mechanics will decrease the stress and strain and help to safely manage the mobility of the care-receiver. The primary rule is to maintain the normal lumbar curve at all times.

I enjoyed what this article spoke about. It seems to me to have a little of all the things we have spoken about in relation to sexual activity and the basic steps on how we can help our clients. Even though the article was set up for spinal cord injuries I feel the steps could be helpful for a lot more.

What is Mindfulness Meditation? Mindfulness is a type of meditation that essentially involves focusing on your mind on the present. To be mindful is to be aware of your thoughts and actions in the present, without judging yourself. Research suggests that mindfulness meditation may improve mood, decrease stress, and boost immune function.

I ran across these "MIT Burnout Prevention and Recovery Tips" the other day: 1) STOP DENYING. Listen to the wisdom of your body. Begin to freely admit the stresses and pressures which have manifested physically, mentally, or emotionally. MIT VIEW: Work until the physical pain forces you into unconsciousness.

Hip Precautions Handout - I like the idea of sending images home with a patient so they can see what's okay and not okay. It may be overwhelming at the doctor's office and a patient may think they will remember what to do. But having pictures could help jog their memory about what should and shouldn't be done.
