Are You An Active Person Or Athlete Being Held Back By Shin Splints?
A Personal Message From Dr. Lynne G. Virant
- Are you worried about shin splints that won't go away no matter what you do?
- Have you tried pain medications, stretches, or new shoes only to experience temporary relief?
- Are you someone who values their health and is looking for a long-term solution to stay active without shin splints getting in the way?
If You Answered “Yes” To Any Of These Questions,
You Are In The Right Place!
If that’s happening to you, you’re definitely not alone, and we hear this type of thing all the time.
In fact, shin splints are one of the most common problems that we see in our Pensacola clinic!
Before Coming Into The Movement Clinic In Pensacola, Many Of Our Patients Suffering From Shin Splints Are...
FALSELY Told…
- It’s just your running shoes that you’re wearing, try using a different pair.
- It’s just your calves that are tight, and you need to stretch or roll them out and the pain will go away (then months later you’re still suffering...).
- It’s “normal” with certain activities like walking, running, or playing tennis, and you just have to push through it.
- To keep active you’ll just have to rest more between workouts and activities.
But, The TRUTH Is...
- Your shoes aren’t causing the problem. Even if you switch, the pain will still be there until you find out what caused the shin splints.
- Your calves may be tight, but just treating them alone isn’t going to solve your problem.
- It’s not normal to get shin splints because of regular activities like walking, running, or playing tennis.
- Resting won't help you fix the cause. Rest just limits you from running or walking. Once you start again, the pain is likely to return.
When It Comes To Solving Something Serious Like Shin Splints…
- You must choose the right provider for your health. If you don’t, you could end up suffering from shin splints longer than necessary or trying treatments you could actually avoid (like strong medications or surgeries).
- It’s possible to treat shin splints naturally without invasive treatments. In fact, that’s the best way to stop your pain and keep it from ever returning.
- To do that, you have to not just treat the pain, but have a provider who is willing to figure out WHY the pain happened in the first place.
- That’s when you’ll get a PERMANENT solution to your problems.
At The Movement Clinic We’ve Created A 3 Step Process To Get Rid Of Your Shin Splints AND Make Sure They Stay Away.
STEP 1
We Get to Know YOU
Our FIRST step is to get to know YOU and YOUR unique story.
No two injuries are alike and although many people may suffer from shin splints, each person has his or her unique body, history, and concerns.
We take the time to better understand your needs, how limitations are impacting your daily life as well as your running/walking and what goals you want to achieve.
STEP 2
We Implement YOUR Customized Plan Together
YOU need a plan tailored to YOUR needs and goals.
When you partner with The Movement Clinic, we work TOGETHER with you as a team to set up YOUR customized plan so you can recover better, faster and stronger and get back to running and walking!
STEP 3
We Coach and Teach You How to Be Active FOR LIFE
“What would be possible if shin splints or injury wasn’t keeping you from running or walking?”
When you are hurting, it’s difficult to see beyond the struggle and all you can think about is not hurting.
Once you are feeling better…. YOUR vision of running and walking becomes even greater!
Suddenly there are no limits and we coach and teach you ways to think and move so you can take charge of your health.
Finally Get Rid Of Your Shin Splints And Keep Them From Coming Back!
You don’t have to sacrifice the activities you love over problems that can be fixed.
Let’s chat about how you can feel like yourself again.
Sincerely,
