The 3 tendons of the Semitendinosus, Sartorius and Grácilis muscles that converge in this area suffer an imbalance between their functions, giving rise to an itching, burning and stinging sensation, and even episodes of crepitus and inflammation.
Such discomfort usually occurs especially during knee flexion and extension movements and sometimes even at rest.

But what can cause such a problem?

In most cases it is due to overtraining (tendinomuscular overload) and lack of knee extension during training. Or maybe you are one of those who suffer from "flat feet", "valgus knees" or the after-effects of an old pubalgia.

Shall we check it out together?

Who hasn't ever woken up with the stiffness of a marble bust, holding their hand to their neck because of a pain as throbbing as it is disconcerting?

Sometimes, due to the most banal and common causes such as the use of a bad pillow or the schizophrenic postures we adopt when sleeping or working in front of the pc, and which go against any known orthopaedics and ergonomics, we end up suffering from neck pain as intense as it is acute, and with the most undesirable and limited mobility.

The fact is that keeping the head twisted for a prolonged period of time tends to degenerate into a blockage of the articular facets due to the low but constant accumulated tension. Certain vertebrae become misaligned, causing various nervous stimuli that result in discomfort and shortening of the muscles usually involved in this problem, such as the Scalene, ECOM and Angular muscles.

But don't worry. Osteopathy can help you. By putting certain structures back in place and relaxing the musculature with TROA techniques or with stretches that can be passive or active, we will reverse the problem in just one session.

What are you waiting for to be able to smile back at the sun and greet your friends in the street without being stale?

Los 3 tendones de los músculos Semitendinoso, Sartorio y Grácil que confluyen en esta zona sufren un desequilibrio entre sus funciones, dando lugar a una sensación de picor, quemazón y escozor, dándose incluso episodios de crepitación e inflamacion. Tales molestias suelen presentarse especialmente durante los movimientos de flexoextensión de rodilla y a veces incluso en reposo.

Pero, ¿qué puede provocar un problema así?

En la mayoría de los casos se debe al sobrentrenamiento (sobrecarga tendinomuscular) y a la falta de extensión de rodilla durante el mismo. O quizá seas una de aquellas personas que sufren de un "pie plano", de "rodillas en valgo" o de las secuelas de una antigua pubalgia.

Beyond the classic injury suffered by these subjects in their daily work, EPICONDYLITIS (translated as Enthesitis of the muscles that insert into the Epicondyle) has become common among people who tend to contain more stress than necessary, being submerged in an almost constant level of tension and statism.

In this case, the problem originates at the cervical level due to poor posture at work and to an emotional and chemical liver-glad bladder decompensation (Bad food habits), which generates a well-known neuromuscular load and the consequent cervical blockage between C3 > C5. This is the cause of the nerve root irritation and inflammation of the epicondyle, which leads to a shortage of blood supply to the tendons and muscles involved in the external elbow projection.

But don't worry, there is a solution. Shall we look at it together?

Más allá de la clásica lesión sufrida por estos sujetos en su labor diaria, la EPICONDILITIS (traducida en forma de Entesitis de los músculos que insertan en el Epicóndilo) se ha convertido en algo habitual entre las personas que suelen contener más estrés del necesario, estando sumidos a un nivel de tensión y estatismo casi constante.

En este caso, el problema se origina a nivel cervical debido a las malas posturas en el trabajo y a la descompensación hepa- to-biliar de carácter emocional y químico (alimentación), que genera una consabida carga neuromuscular y el consiguiente bloqueo cervical entre C3 > C5. Y surge así la causa de la irritación de la raíz nerviosa y de la inflamación del Epicóndilo, que lleva a la escasez de riego sanguíneo de los tendones y músculos implicados del saliente externo del codo.

Pero descuida, tiene solución. ¿Lo vemos juntos?

The International Classification of Headache Disorders (ICHD) Edition defines more than 150 different types of headache, which are divided into two main categories: primary and secondary.

A primary headache involves the condition itself. That is, migraine and tension headache itself as a result of stress, hypertension and sports and/or sexual activity.

In this case it may be accompanied by sensitivity to light and sensory and auditory indisposition. auditory indisposition. Nausea and vomiting are common in these cases.

When it is a secondary headache, the reasons are very diverse but always the result of an intracranial haemorrhage, a tumour or severe trauma.

Most of the time, it will have to be attributed to other organic conditions, the best known endogenous and exogenous causes of which usually include climate changes, pollution, electromagnetic hypersensitivity and bad smells, as well as lack of sleep or hormonal changes (especially in women).

In addition to the genetic factor present in many people, it can also occur due to certain medications (the same ones used to treat migraines) and diet: abuse of foods such as coffee, wine, cheese, additives such as Monosodium Glutamate or other chemicals that the processed food industry spills without reason. "Food", of course, of extreme harm and zero benefit.
From the perspective of osteopathic and functional medicine, we usually approach the problem from a particularly structural and visceral level.

And we observe that there are many cases in which an alteration of the intestinal microbiota due to hepatic dysfunction, a bad dental occlusion related to the TMJ, an entrapment of the Trigeminal Nerve or an associated vascular-cranial disorder can generate intermittent or continuous migraines of the most undesirable nature.

If and when this is your case, thanks to a personalised treatment that includes a series of manipulations and the use of natural supplements, we can reverse the symptoms and erradicate their cause.

Ultimately, making a pending decision would be one of the cures. Shall we say goodbye to those annoying migraines?

Responsible for abduction of the arm as well as participating in ext. rotation, stabilisation and elevation/flexion of the arm, the supraspinatus is a muscle that is as small as it is powerful and is part of the shoulder joint complex, mobilised by the rotator cuff muscle group of which it is a part.

After an injury, when we abuse it due to a continuous overexertion of shoulder elevation or when we perform a forced gesture with the arm, we end up suffering from tendinitis or, in other words, a structural inflammation of the supraspinatus tendon itself. This often occurs in people with very demanding manual jobs (workers, office workers and cleaners) and even in climbers or boxers.

Sometimes it can also occur as a result of a pinching of the tendons and the subacromial bursa due to a hooked subacromial arch that causes a pinching of the tendons and the subacromial bursa.

The pain usually manifests itself in the proximal and lateral area of the arm, increasing in many cases during the night.

On other occasions, in osteopathy, we find that the origin of this tendinotis is more likely to reflect a stomach imbalance with an associated emotional factor, something that can be easily checked by applying kinesiology.

Shall we prove it?
