Miscellaneous

From Vertigo, TMJ, and Balance exercises to how to use a cane, breathing exercises and even exercises for dogs, this category has it all. Watch as Doctor Jo demonstrates a wide variety of physical therapy exercises, stretches, tips, and techniques for miscellaneous things.
Use a TENS Unit
TENS units & EMS units can be very helpful when recovering from an injury or surgery. The two are very different, but often come together in one unit like the iStim EV-805 unit I use in this video.
Vertigo Treatment
Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo, better known as BPPV, can literally stop you in your tracks. Make sure you are properly diagnosed with BPPV before trying these because vertigo symptoms can be an indication of something more serious.
Retail Worker Stretches
If you're a Retail Worker and you stand all day, that can put a lot of stress on your body, especially your back, neck, feet, and hips. These stretches and exercises are great for retail workers, teachers, factory workers, or anyone who stands a lot throughout the day.
Exercise Tendons
Exercising your tendons isn't something most people think about since tendons aren’t muscles, but tendon-specific exercises can improve joint health, reduce pain and stiffness, and improve speed and agility.
Writer Stretches
Writers and Office Workers often get really focused on their work and tend to have a lot of neck and back pain from bad posture at a computer. Their wrists and hands can get tight and over worked as well. These stretches and exercises are not only great for writers, but they are also great for anyone who works at a desk all day.
Relieve GERD Acid Reflux
Did you know GERD or Acid Reflux can often be relieved by simple stretches and exercises? In this video, I'll show several stretches and exercises that can help prevent and relieve the symptoms of GERD or acid reflux.
Therapeutic Yoga
This real-time therapeutic yoga routine features easy stretches that can help relax & relieve stress and anxiety throughout the body. It can also help decrease tightness in the muscles and improve overall flexibility.
Bodyweight Exercises
Bodyweight exercises are great (especially for beginners) because they can be done without any equipment or an expensive gym membership. Many simple and effective exercises can be done with just our bodyweight. The bodyweight exercises in this video are great for helping to improving strength, balance, and overall health.
Vagus Nerve Stimulation
Vagus nerve stimulation uses gentle electrical impulses to stimulate the vagus nerve. The Vagus Nerve plays a key role in the parasympathetic nervous system, helping regulate rest, digestion, heart rate, and more.
Get Better Sleep
Struggling to get a good night’s sleep? You’re not alone! But here’s some good news: short strengthening exercises in the evening (like the ones in this video) can help improve sleep quality so you wake up refreshed.
Tension Headache Relief
Tension headaches can cause a lot of pain. Stress is a common cause of tension headaches. Relaxing the muscles around the neck and shoulder area can help decrease the pain caused by tension headaches.
Sit Safely
Do you find yourself plopping down in a chair? This video will show you some simple tips on how to sit down and stand up safely from a chair to prevent that plopping!
Fibromyalgia Pain Relief
Fibromyalgia and other chronic pain conditions can cause pain all over the body. This is often called widespread pain. The key to finding relief with stretches and exercises with these types of conditions is to find the right amount of intensity for you. Lying down while performing simple stretches and exercises often helps.
Chest Stretches
Doctor Jo shows you three simple chest stretches to get your muscles loosened up if you have tight chest muscles or sore pectorals (pectoralis) from a workout.
