In this Session Sit in Episode, Join Mike while he helps a collegiate baseball athlete hit the turbo button on his tommy john rehab. This particular case is a UCL repair, not a reconstruction, but the basic principles would be the same for both, or any post op orthopedic procedure for that matter.
In this video, you will learn the biophysics of fluid dynamics, and the REAL SECRET behind rapid swelling reduction. Mike takes you through the idea of Lymphatic Drainage Massage, dispelling common myths and getting down to real, applicable swelling reduction concepts.
In addition to Lymphatic Massage, Mike demonstrates how to use popular percussion guns to teach your clients a "tech assisted LDM" that they can do at home, accelerating early post-op results!
Last, Mike reveals his secret swelling elimination recovery stack of NMES pumping AND RED LIGHT THERAPY, utilizing the ‪@fringeheals‬ Red Light Elbow Wrap!

This channel is a great resource for new grads that didn't have the opportunity to see injuries like these during practicums! I remember my first practicum as a 2nd year trainer I saw two ankle sprains and a turf toe the whole semester.

Can we use these techniques for non-surgical injuries? I see a lot of clients that injure their back or shoulder due to powerlifting/crossfit. I always make sure they see an ortho or PT if it’s beyond me, but I feel that I can do 99% of this. I’m a LMT with specific training in sports related injuries, myofascial decompression, and recovery. Thank you for all you do, Mike. As I always say, you are the best!🎉

Hi, i am 11 days post op(24 yo). I'm intrigued and just began after this video with the excercises. I was told to take it easy and not move too much. But your suggestion of light movement in relaxation just makes sense. The lymphatic part is totally news to me, not mentioned at all by my doctors, will begin immediately. Thank you. I have decent extension at about 30 degrees, i'm positive these excercises will help me reach full very soon. The flexion part is what i'm concerned about. In the video Mike looks like he has about 90 degree flexion(@17:00), but in the video description it says he has almost full. I am stuck at 90 degrees myself, no pain, but high tension in the surgical area when attempting to flex. What do I do to improve the flexion? I should add, that I did not have a Tommy John. I had a mayo plate fixation with 8 screws after a transolecranon fracture. If that changes anything about the recovery process

Hey Man! I dont like giving specific advice over comments, but we could absolutely do a virtual consulation if you want to speak about your case and how we might be able to help. You had a different procedure, so while the sweeling control tactics here are absolutely useable, the progression of range of motion and rehab will be different in a case like yours. if you want to set up a virtual consult, head to my website www.themovementunderground.com

I'm with you on all levels until you talk about scientific benefits to red light therapy. Just lost me, but I still promote your videos in the college classes I teach as extra content. Keep it up!
