L and R on adult socks?

L and R on adult socks?

While I was helping my daughter put on her shoes the other day, she asked me why I had “L” and “R” on my socks.

In a quick fashion, I said so I know which foot they go on.  And she went about her own business.

But it got me thinking…why do adults have this on socks but not kids?

Are adults that finicky? Or that blockheaded?

This got me thinking about the reason why our foundation of getting you better just makes more and more sense.

When we get people with shoulder pain better when they are not getting better elsewhere, one simple reason can be made.

It is due to when we strengthen your rotator cuff, we actually want you to feel the burn in the rotator cuff.

This may seem simple, like L and R on our socks, but you will be amazed how many other physical therapy offices just get you to do exercises but you feel the burn in the wrong spot.

For my blockheaded friends, that is like wearing your L sock on your R foot.

That is just not right.

If you are having pain and not getting better, give our team a shot.  Our foundational approaches, 1 on 1 treatment times and expert manual therapy is what gives you the relief you deserve.

Don’t end up getting rotator cuff surgery or injections because you put the L and the R.
