Hip pain that travels down your leg? 👀

The gluteus minimus is a small muscle with a surprisingly big referral pattern. When it becomes tight or irritated, it can refer pain from the hip down into the leg.

That’s one reason it’s a muscle we commonly target with dry needling at SPARK.

Four more muscles are still on the list.

FIVE TESTS GIVE YOU A SNAPSHOT. WHAT CAN 20+ TELL YOU? 👀

Last week, we shared how Dr. Carlos and the SPARK team put the McLean High School baseball athletes through our free 5-point Combine.

That's a great place to start. But it's only a snapshot.

SPARK's Athlete Readiness Assessment takes a much deeper look, using more than 20 tests to evaluate your athlete's physical performance.

The assessment takes about an hour per athlete and gives us a more complete picture of where they are now, where their strengths are, and where they can improve.

More data. A clearer picture of the athlete.

“I'm tired of being lanky.”

That’s what this West Springfield High Schooler told us when he came to SPARK in 2024.

The first photo is from then.

The second was taken just a few days ago in 2026.

Two photos. Two different points in the journey. A whole lot of work in between.

Still playing. Still pushing. Still looking ahead. ⚽️

Here’s what one aging athlete had to say about his experience with SPARK Fieldhouse, including getting back on the pitch after a total hip replacement.

"As an aging athlete who has sprained, strained, pulled, twisted, or broken various soccer-related body parts (mostly, but not exclusively, my own) I have decades of experience as a physical therapy patient and can honestly say SPARK is the best I’ve worked with.

The SPARK culture is one of motivation to succeed. The staff have keen eyes for subtle joint and muscle clues, coupled with a creative and inexhaustible repertoire of exercises, drills, and routines to keep it fun, keep it challenging, and to keep you progressing towards your personal fitness goals.

You will be hard pressed to find a nicer, more knowledgeable, or more dedicated physiotherapy staff anywhere.

Thanks to SPARK, I am back on the pitch after a total hip replacement, playing soccer against guys half my age, and determined to keep at it into my 70s, God-willing."

Karlin has a very specific training goal: to keep jumping off the stage with his bandmates. 🎸

Adam has been helping him to build the strength and power to keep doing what he loves, on and off the stage.

That’s what we mean when we say training for real life.

Whatever you’re training for, SPARK can help you get there.

Lower back pain that seems to start in your hip? 👀

The gluteus medius can develop tight or irritated areas that refer pain into the lower back, buttocks, and outer hip even running all the way down the leg into the foot.

That’s one reason it’s a muscle we commonly target with dry needling at SPARK.
