There is one muscle in the body that when weak can cause real issues in your SI joints, low back, and hips. It is rarely tested when we see a doctor. If we don’t know it is weak and don’t know a plan to strengthen it we can spend months or years in pain not knowing how to get lasting relief.

In this video I help you understand the gluteus medius anatomy, function, and what happens when it is weak. I share how we test this muscle strength in our office using a digital tool, but also how you can perform a self-assessment of the gluteus medius strength in your own home.

I then talk through three simple strengthening exercises that can be done at home without any equipment. These exercise are usually a good entry level point for people who have determined they have gluteus medius weakness and who are struggling with some back, SI joint, or hip pain.

The first exercise is the Standing Lateral Leg Raise. It is a great gluteus medius exercise because it works your standing leg gluteus medius isometrically while also strengthening the leg you are raising. Additionally, it is a good core exercise and helps with balance.

The second exercise is a Clamshell exercise. This exercise is fairly well known, but I give a few different variations on the clamshell and a key focus on how to get the most benefit out of this hip external rotator exercise.

The last exercise is a Standing Single Leg Wall Press. It is deceptively simple to do, but it really gets your gluteus medius working.

All of these exercise can be done at home and with no special equipment. And when the gluteus medius muscle gets strengthen people usually notice that they have better balance, feel more agile, and many times their back, hip, and/or SI joint pain decreases or goes away.

If a gluteus medius muscle is weak and we don’t address that weakness then the altered biomechanics continues the person continues to put wear and tear on their SI joints, back, and hips which can lead to early degenerative changes and pain.

Public Health – Concepts of Health and Its Determinants
Whiteboard Animation Transcript
with Natalie Lovesey, MD
https://medskl.com/Module/Index/concepts-of-health-and-its-determinants

What is “health”? A useful definition comes from the World Health Organization: “Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.”

“Wellness” refers to the presence of positive attributes in one’s life – well-being, quality of life, happiness, and satisfaction. “Illness” is a person’s subjective experience of feeling unwell. A “sickness” is a socially and culturally defined entity. Finally, a “disease” is the pathologic process going on in the body.

For example: a person experiences chest pain – this is their illness. They fear a heart attack – a sickness – which causes them to seek help. The doctor explains to the patient that he has pericarditis – a disease.

So, what determines how healthy someone is?

The determinants of health include genetics and biology, but they also include social factors. Many of these social determinants of health are as important as physical factors like smoking status, blood pressure, and exercise.  They include income, social support networks, education, and social exclusion, for example.

Why do these social factors matter so much?

The common theme is stress. When income is low, employment opportunities are few, and social support networks are limited, people have difficulty meeting their basic needs, and have uncertainty about their future. This chronic stress takes a toll on the body – contributing to many chronic diseases – and may also lead to unhealthy coping behaviours.

So, when talking to your patients, consider their social context. Factor it into your clinical decision-making. And remember that health is more than just being “disease free,” and means different things to different people.

Have you heard about the importance of body pH? That’s right, your body has a delicate acid-alkaline balance. It should never be disturbed if you want to live a healthier and happier life.

In today’s video, we are going to discuss how to maintain the pH balance in your body. What drink do you need every morning? Does exercise have a role in this? What foods do you need to eat more? We will be talking about all of these AND more.

Summary:
1. Start your day with a magic drink
Yes, there is a magic drink that can bring your pH balance to the right level. But you need to drink it daily. Before I reveal this drink, you need to know the ideal pH level of your body.

2. Exercise your way to a healthy pH level
When you exercise hard, your body increases its breathing rate and circulation. This causes you to breathe deep, which removes more carbon dioxide from your body. As a result, you experience alkalizing effects.

3. Eat these Awesome Foods
Foods help maintain your body pH levels tremendously well. Here is a quick lay down on what to eat to maintain your pH levels.

Jalapeno:
Those green, spicy toppings on your pizza play a deeper role than you think. Jalapenos belong to the pepper family and are alkaline in nature. This means when eaten, they promote alkaline levels in your body.

Asparagus:
Now this isn’t exactly the best topping for your pizza, but it’s great on its own. Asparagus is rich in alkaline properties. The high level of pH makes it an excellent choice if you are acidic. Asparagus has a pH factor of 8.5. This helps you combat acidity issues.

Grapes and Pineapple:
You need these two fruits! They have an alkalizing effect on your body, along with multitudes of healing properties. These delicious fruits work like magic to balance your body’s pH level.

​Obsessive-compulsive disorder, or OCD, is a condition characterized by obsessions and/or compulsions. Although the neuroscience of OCD is not completely understood, in this video I discuss one supported perspective on what happens in the brain to cause the obsessions and compulsions that occur in OCD.

For a more in-depth discussion of the neuroscience of OCD (on my website), click this link: https://neuroscientificallychallenged.com/posts/know-your-brain-obsessive-compulsive-disorder-ocd

TRANSCRIPT:

Obsessive-compulsive disorder, or OCD, is a condition characterized by obsessions and/or compulsions. Obsessions are recurrent unwanted thoughts, while compulsions are repetitive behaviors or mental acts often performed in response to obsessions, typically with the goal of reducing anxiety and discomfort. It’s important to note that OCD is often very distressing, and is not just a preference for orderliness, as the term is sometimes used to imply.

The neuroscience of OCD is not completely understood, and it’s likely that different neural circuits may be involved based on a person’s age and symptom profile, among other factors. One supported perspective on the neuroscience of OCD, however, points to a prominent role for circuits that connect the orbitofrontal cortex with a group of structures called the basal ganglia. According to this perspective, increased activity in the orbitofrontal cortex is associated with a heightened focus on concerns that spawn obsessive thoughts. When the orbitofrontal cortex is activated in response to something the brain perceives as a danger or concern, it communicates with the basal ganglia. A simplified version of basal ganglia circuitry suggests it consists of two opposing pathways: an excitatory pathway called the direct pathway, and an inhibitory pathway called the indirect pathway. When the orbitofrontal cortex sends a signal to the basal ganglia, it often leads to an action designed to alleviate the discomfort caused by the perceived danger; that action is mediated by the direct pathway. In a healthy person, the indirect pathway then inhibits further action. In someone with OCD, however, the direct pathway is over-excitable, drowning out the activity of the indirect pathway and causing a difficult time switching to a different behavior or turning focus away from the concern causing the discomfort. Thus, according to this model, overactivity in the orbitofrontal cortex and the direct pathway of the basal ganglia increases the occurrence of both obsessions and compulsions.

Our identities, societies, and health are all mixed together in cool, weird, and often deeply unfair ways. One of the big factors that comes out of that mix is stress. Stress impacts our health in a number of ways. In this episode of Crash Course Public Health, we’re going to go beyond the basics and look at the ways society affects our stress, which in turn impacts our health.
