Pelvic Floor Health, Diagnosis and Dysfunction in MenThere is no refuting that there are some distinct anatomical differences between cisgender men and women, but there hasn't been a great deal of public awareness that both groups can develop pelvic pain. Usually when you hear about pelvic pain or pelvic floor dysfunction, it often surrounds post-partum or post-hysterectomy care. But, studies have found that at least one in six cisgender men are dealing with persistent pain in the pelvis, making chronic pelvic pain syndrome the most common urologic diagnosis in men under 50.In this two-part series, we will learn common Common pelvic floor diagnoses for men, learn how to properly screen and identify pelvic floor dysfunction(s) and when to refer to a pelvic floor physical therapist as well as why is it essential to establish a mutual relationship with a pelvic floor physical therapist, and how it can benefit your patients.And who better than to tackle this topic than Brittany Sudbrook, PT, FAAOMPT- a fellowship-trained orthopedic manual physical therapist and owner of Empower Pelvic Health, a practice based in Southeast Houston, TX. Brittany received her Master of Science in Physical Therapy at Texas State University and is a fellowship-trained Orthopedic Manual Physical Therapist.She is a faculty member of the Manual Therapy Institute, a post-doctorate fellowship program teaching physical therapists advanced problem-solving and hands-on manual therapy skills and has taught continuing education courses to hundreds of physical therapists nationwide.View the recorded webinar training here >>Our SponsorsThis episode is sponsored by the Southeast Professional Education Group.

Encouraging Women Leaders in Sports Chiropractic In today's episode we've taken a bit of a detour from our typical training format to bring you a special Q&A discussion on Sports Chiropractic and how to encourage female leadership in what has been a traditionally a male-dominant profession. From treating on the sidelines to serving on the governing boards for some of the world's leading sports medicine organizations, in recent years, we have seen a positive uptick of female leadership within sports chiropractic. But, there is still much more to be done to encourage the next generation to continue to lean into opportunities to serve and step into leadership positions when they're presented.And who better to have this discussion with than Dr. Shea Stark, former president of the ACA Sports Council, current North American representative for the International Federation of Sports Chiropractic and member of the medical commission for USA Cheerleading.A graduate of Texas Chiropractic College, Dr. Shea Stark began getting involved in leadership and service positions within professional organizations while she was still a student, taking advantage of every opportunity to learn and build her network. We will touch on what she learned from these experiences and discuss the ways that being intentional about building her network while still in school served as a catalyst that continues to open doors to this day.In this fascinating conversation, we chat about:Dr. Stark's journey in pursuing a career in sports chiropracticThe importance of developing strong manual and hands-on skills to treat on the sidelinesWhat it's like to travel the world treating high performing athletesView the video version of this interview here >> Our SponsorsThis episode is sponsored by the FAKTR Rehab System.

Creating a Pre-habilitation Program with Dr. Davis McAlister - Pt 1FAKTR Podcast Episode 57Featuring: Davis McAlister, DCEPISODE SUMMARYIn today's episode, we're going to explore a fascinating topic that has gained significant attention in recent years. Today's training is titled: "Creating a Pre-habilitation Program with Dr. Davis McAlister." Whether you're an athlete, a fitness enthusiast, or someone preparing to go under the knife, pre-habilitation is a proactive approach that can help optimize your physical and mental well-being before an event or sport. This subject is one that really hits home for me...as I sit here prepping to leave for a "world series" baseball tournament with my 9 year old and his team. Even at such a young age, we are constantly monitoring our kids to make sure they are getting proper rest, nutrition, hydration so that they can perform at their best and reach their full potential as an athlete at every stage as they grow. I'm fortunate to have a husband that's well-versed in athletic performance and recovery, but for most parents, that's simply not the case. So what do they do?In the world of sports medicine, we talk so much about how to treat injuries after they occur, but you don't hear a lot about how to prevent them in the first place. And while we can't 100% always prevent injuries in athletes, what we can do is better prepare our athletic patients for competition by implementing a pre-habilitation program that is customized to the unique needs of their sport and current level of fitness.About our Speaker:Our instructor today for this two-episode series is Dr. Davis McAlister is a Clinic Faculty Doctor for the Parker University Dallas Wellness Clinic. Dr. McAlister earned his Doctor of Chiropractic from Parker University in 2003 and has been in practice for 16 years.

Branding vs. Marketing for Practice Success Pt. 2FAKTR Podcast Episode 52Featuring: Jordana MegonigalEPISODE SUMMARYToday we wrap up Part 2 of our Training on Marketing vs. Branding with Jordana Megonigal.I have to be honest, I am in the midst of a growth phase for two of my businesses right now with new websites launching soon, new product offerings and an expansion of services. It's a little overwhelming and easy to feel like I'm underwater 99.9% of the time--and I've been doing this for 10 years now. While I've developed more of a tolerance for the stress that comes with the growing pains of business ownership, I also look back and think about all of the things I wish I would have known when I started or regret the things I didn't prioritize early on that cost me valuable time and money.Brand Development is one of those crucial things that you HAVE to understand and solidify in order to set yourself up for long-term success.And today's guest speaker is one that I specifically chose to tackle this topic--my long-time friend and business partner, Jordana Megonigal.ABOUT OUR SPEAKER:Jordana is a marketing professional with 25 years of experience in media, branding and PR--when I say she has literally been involved in every aspect of what it takes to build and grow incredible brands, I'm not exaggerating. Jordana and I first met back in 2012 when we were working together for a full-service marketing agency and business magazine. We ran incredible events together, collaborated on ground-breaking creative work for a number of small and large clients in a diverse mix of industries and she served as Editor and later Publisher of a business magazine where her creative approach to sales won her national recognition and served as a framework that is still used by publishing houses to this day.Currently, Jordana is as a strategist and content developer under her own consulting company, she also is the co-founder of Elysium Creative Collective, employeeing creative freelancers from across the globe to collaborate on marketing projects for companies small and large and is an adjunct professor of Journalism at Furman University. While she wears many hats, she has a passion for helping companies and organizations with strategic marketing, event planning and management, branding, copywriting and publication management and development.This Episode Sponsored by: This episode is sponsored by Southeast Professional Education Group.

Neck Training Solutions with Iron NeckFAKTR Podcast Episode 43Featuring: Jacob Nelson, CSCSEPISODE SUMMARYIf you're like most MSK practitioners, neck pain is a common complaint you see in your office. Many providers treat whiplash injuries and "text neck" along with more serious issues like chronic migraines, cervicogenic headaches and concussion, all of which can stem from dysfunction, trauma or weakness in the cervical spine. And if you treat neck pain in your office, you've more than likely heard of Iron Neck.Iron Neck started with a controversial idea: What if neck strength could help reduce whiplash and in turn reduce concussion risk in athletes? So their initial goal was to get Iron Neck devices into NFL and NCAA weight rooms.What started with a focus on athlete safety has evolved into a modern approach to fixing the crippling posture of modern society. And now these wearable neck training devices are utilized in private healthcare clinics, hospitals and by the sports medicine staffs of 40+ NFL and NCAA programs.In this two part training we will answer the question: What does it take to have a strong neck and why is this important for your patients?In this course, we'll be taking a practical look at evaluating, training and finding possible solutions for strengthening and rehabilitation of the neck and its support system. And who better to speak to this than Jacob Nelson, Director of Education for Iron Neck.ABOUT OUR SPEAKER:Jacob Nelson is a Kinesiologist, Strength & Conditioning Coach, and Athlete holding a lifetime obsession with strength and learning. He currently works with The Iron Neck as Director of Education, Programming and Regional Manager as well as the Head of Strength & Conditioning for the American Raptors Rugby team.

And while there is no shortage of orthotics manufacturers, there is a great lack of understanding of the medical necessity of orthotics and their clinical use.Although many companies market orthotics to healthcare practitioners, there exists a great lack of understanding of medical necessity and their clinical use in rehabilitation. Dr. David Wedemeyer is on a mission to change that.In Part 2 of this two part training, we will dispel some common myths surrounding the subject of orthotics prescription and learn about the appropriate usage and benefit of orthotics in clinical practice.Today, we will learn the differences between a 3D volumetric cast and 2D methods and how they impact the finished orthotic device. We will also learn about the marketing and myths that entice doctors to buy generic brands. Buyer Beware! Not all "custom orthotics" are what they seem.ABOUT OUR SPEAKER:Dr. David Wedemeyer is a chiropractor and certified pedorthist located in Laguna Niguel, California. A native of Newport Beach, he pursued a chiropractic degree at Cleveland Chiropractic College in Los Angeles and returned to Orange County to open his practice.

Through his pedorthic training he garnered the trust of local orthopedic foot and ankle specialists and enjoyed referral relationships throughout his career.

I know the patrons already got the BIHAI episode, but please check out some of the other shows I work with on the network. Apologies for the lack of a regular episode.

Spine specialist, Dr. Jeremy Heidt shares a story of a woman with severe sciatic who came to his office after going to the ER. My name is Dr. Jeremy Heidt.  It is a personal experience with chiropractic care for a back injury and sports treatment that I had my first experience with chiropractic care.  At the age of 14, I suffered from severe low back pain and migraine headaches. I had a spinal fusion surgery recommended for me at the age of 15. Through chiropractic care and giving my back time to heal I saw improvements in both my lower back and migraine headaches and was able to avoid a spinal surgery. This personal experience got me involved in chiropractic and I believe the personal and professional experience is what makes our clinic unique. In the past 10 years of treating patients, I have learned that paying attention to the little things in treatment can have a huge impact. I have learned manual chiropractic adjustments, combined with soft tissue therapies, and rehab exercises as needed can truly make a difference in patient's lives, myself included. Whether it's helping a patient walk with less pain, that ability to get on the floor to play with their grandkids, recovering from a sports injury, or avoiding a back surgery, these goals are what makes going to work each day enjoyable. It is my goal to get the most efficient response possible for each patient. Whether it's using chiropractic adjustments to improve function and decrease pain, soft tissue therapies, flexion distraction/decompression, or rehab exercises/plans. I truly believe we have the tools available to make a difference with our patients and have them leaving our office better than when they came in. I grew up in Dickinson, North Dakota. Graduated from college at the University of North Dakota and graduated from Chiropractic School at Northwestern Health Sciences in Bloomington, MN.  After spending 14 years in Minnesota and owning Midwest Chiropractic and Wellness in Eden Prairie, MN for 8.5 years Jenny and I made the decision to move back to North Dakota to be closer to our family and have our girls, Finley and Emery, closer to home. I am certified in Cox Flexion Distraction/Decompression, (The only chiropractor in North Dakota with the certification and 5-10% of chiropractors being certified nationwide.) I am also certified in a technique called FAKTR that uses multiple soft tissue therapies (Cupping, Instrument Assisted Tools, Functional Rehab Exercises) to get patients better. I enjoy treating a wide variety of issues from Acute and Chronic Neck and Back Pain, Disc Herniations, Scoliosis, Facet Syndromes and extremity issues such as shoulder, hip, knee, and ankle issues.

As a healthcare provider, you probably understand that it's important to be up to speed on what the research says regarding common conditions you see in practice or treatments that you tend to utilize with your patients. But let's be honest--most research articles aren't the easiest to read and sometimes you may pour through dozens of papers before you find one that is relevant to your practice.Our friends at ChiroUp.com are trying to change that...in fact, they've created an entire platform that assists practitioners by (amongst many other things) providing relevant research for hundreds of conditions. In this two-part training, they talk through the highlights of some of the most impactful recent papers published and then bring it back around to how this research should affect how you approach treatments for these conditions.Drs. Brandon Steele and Tim Bertelsman are the founders of ChiroUp.com, a company who's mission is to help evidence-based chiropractors produce exceptional clinical outcomes, then market their brand of excellence to the people who matter- patients, physicians, and healthcare decision-makers.

Quadrant Movement Analysis: Taming the Clinical Grey AreaFAKTR Podcast Episode 15Featuring: Rob Pape, DC EPISODE SUMMARYIt's often said that "If you don't assess, it's just a guess" and that statement rings true not only in the first visit, but throughout the progression of care. As you listen to the final installment of this training, I encourage you to think about your process for assessment and re-assessment...how are you using your findings to guide and adapt your approach?In Part 1 of this training, we laid the foundation for the Quadrant Movement Analysis framework that practitioners can use to zero-in on where to begin with treatment and to continue collecting data-points through re-assessment to adapt the treatment approach as the patient progresses through care.Today, we will talk more about the hierarchy for addressing multiple subclassifications and Dr. Pape will discuss patterns of mechanical dysfunction and how they can lead back to the chief complaint.FAKTR YEAR-END SALE:Our FAKTR Year-End Sale is going on now with two special offers.

Many of you may know that we launched a new course in December of 2019 called FAKTR Peripheral Nerve Entrapments or FAKTR PNE for short.Just three short months later; COVID-19 hit hard in the US and we made the decision to transition the FAKTR pne course to a self-paced online 8hr course. Today's format is a bit different than a typical episode. First, we feature an interview Dr. Todd Riddle, our Director of Education had with FAKTR PNE course creators, Drs. Mike Olson and Spencer Lindholm and then transition into a training on the adhering evidence-based guidelines when assessing and treating peripheral nerve entrapments.Topics discussed on today's episode include defining PNE—what it is and how these entrapments occur, common patient presentations, and the evidence-based medicine “triad.”If you're confused about what peripheral nerve entrapments ARE, you're in the right place—if you're in clinical practice, you might encounter them all of the time and not realize it. If you are a pro at treating PNE, then you're sure to enjoy this discussion…I'm sure you'll pick up some clinical pearls along the way.This Episode is Sponsored by:Today's episode is brought to you FAKTR.

Integrating Fitness into Clinical PracticeFAKTR Podcast Episode 3 - Part 1Presented by Tom Teter, DC developer of FAKTR's Rehab to FitnessEPISODE SUMMARYIn this episode, we delve into a topic that is at the forefront of many modern practices -- how do I implement fitness into my current clinical practice?All too often, practitioners don't take the leap to incorporate more fitness training into their patient treatment and post-treatment offerings due to lack of equipment, lack of know-how or both. Dr. Tom Teter aims to change this dynamic and break down the barriers practitioners face when deciding if incorporating fitness is right for their practice.In this two-part episode, we will discuss the body of evidence and research that supports fitness as an adjunct to therapy, defining fitness, rehabilitation and the grey area between the two along with the reasons that rehab systems fail and the six stages of care.We will discuss how fitness isn't just about improving capacity, but about improving overall health and how to develop a continuum of care from rehab to fitness and how to determine where your patient falls in the spectrum.Have a question that wasn't covered?

Fitness to Rehab is a system Dr. Teter calls "a linear load application continuum approach". Utilizing this method, the practitioner can take patients through a process that starts with injury care to soft tissue treatment to rehabilitative exercise. As opposed to tracking symptoms like most standards of care models Fitness to Rehab seeks to find where the root cause is coming from and address it. He built this program out of necessity when asked to create a collegiate fitness and wellness degree program from scratch. Ideal audience to learn from Dr. Justin Perspective :Physical Therapist who was doing joint replacement or strokes but is now on their own doing sports and athlete injuries. They like spinal manipulations but it's just a tool in their belt not the bread and butter like a chiropractor. They are in need of learning more exercises, a program, and a system to implement. Chiropractor is technique heavy (could be instrument based or not). They know rehab is important and gets paid by insurance so they want to learn more. Their current active care wheel house is... PNF stretches geared for home use, McGill big 3 and extremity problems are given Resisted ROM with resistance bands. Load Application Applying an external load to a biological organism, see how that person responds to that stress, and if they can get chronic and consistent exposure to that stimuli, then there will be some long term adaption. Big component of rehab to fitness is quantifying the load and stress that a particular activity has on a person and progressing and regressing them as time goes on. 6 Stages of Load Application for a Linear Care Continuum  Acute Management - Fundamental Kinematics - Motor Control - Functional Integration - Progressive Kinaesthetics - Foundational Capacity Dr. Teter walks us through a sprain/ strain ankle with what treatment would look like for this linear 6 step load application progression. Also he breaks down the process for a basketball player that needs to get back to jumping at a professional level.Do we need to take any prerequisite courses to understand rehab to fitness? FAKTR is recommended because it's like his class picks up where Dr. Todd Riddles ends. Dr. Tom talks about rehab but he really teaches fitness, while Dr. Todd talks about fitness principles but teaches rehab. We are biological creations designed to move that respond to stress loading in very specific and predictable ways. Each patient has different needs: one may only want better motor control but a basketball player needs functional control based on that sport. There is a deficit in function, that they need to improve upon, so they can be tolerant to the load of their day. Patient Profile - Need Analysis - Exam He even goes through a mock history of questions he wants answered and of course the goals the patients want to achieve and why or how they can't do them now. It's a nice patient profile he gives insight into. The needs analysis is figuring out what are the Functional needs and movements you have to do to perform normal function for their goal. Minimal Effective Dose What are the movement, fitness and skill tasks you need to do XYZ?Start off giving a person the Minimal Effective Dose that will get the desired results. People's Aliments Classified Broadly into 4 Categories Pathological (fractured, torn)Irritable (inflamed tissue)Dysfunctional (joint or tissue not injured but not functioning quite right and it hurts)Weak (joint, muscle etc is just not strong) Activity Intolerance - what is that one thing you want to do but pain is stopping you from doing it? Know the Language of the professionals or people you are targeting to get referrals from or to have as patients. Coaches and trainers are key referral partners for this type of load application and fitness based chiropractic clinic. Always appreciate your spouse for how they contribute to the relationship and show them g...

Dr. Donny Davis is a chiropractor, physical therapy assistant, and FAKTR certified provider. As a former member of Bootheel CrossFit, we were dying to get caught up on all that Dr. Don has accomplished over the past few years following his doctorate schooling and setting up shop within Hudson Chiropractic in Cape Girardeau. There seems to be a lot of misunderstanding about chiropractic care and how exactly it should be implemented responsibly with a movement screen and/or follow-up exercise prescription. Dr. Don gives us an insight to how he approaches screening clients, gives them the care they need, then sets them up for future success so they don't become repeat customers where it could be avoided. If you've ever considered chiropractic care, or just wondered how exactly it works, you HAVE to give this one a listen!

Dr. Rob Pape, DC talks to Dr. Justin Trosclair, DC on A Doctor's Perspective Podcast Quadrant analysis helps practitioners navigate treatment based on a subclassification system breaking down biomechanical failure into traceable patterns. Dr. Pape was evidence based and patient centered before these were buzz words and before the internet made it easy to collaborate. It was like being on a chiropractic island and taking trips with different professions to iron out what he was seeing work. What is the reason that some doctors blame the patient when they don't get the results that the doctor assumes you would get? Should this be taught in schools with diagnosis and student clinic so they can apply these concepts (not cookie cutter programs)? This can help bridge the gap from being excellent at diagnosis and bridging all the techniques you know with practical application based on what the patient presents. Test - Treat - ReTest Are they hyper-mobile?Do they have Systemic Inflammation? (abdominal sub-classification)What's their motor control with dynamic stability like?Regional interdependence also plays a part We really are missing key components to injury and relief if we only focus on the area of chief complaint. When asking about ‘magical' areas that tend to be overlooked... what is his answer? Can we say mechanical dysfunction and drop the ‘subluxation' word? Dr Rob Pape may not have easy answers but he has easy ways to ask better questions. Do you want a n=1 shirt, hoodie, mug etc? Then head over to my spreadshirt account and pick one up. Codifying how you process and work on patients, while actually working on patients is a difficult endeavor but he managed to compile the quadrant analysis system and hopes you will see it as a way to be more efficient and effective with your patients. Pain with normal range of motion could be hypermobility or random pain all over, tender to touch, massage and exercise may make it worse could be systemic inflammation are just a few of the ideas you learn about in quadrant analysis. Relationship Advice: When you are having important conversations, slow it down and really listen and actively listen to fully understand what the other person is saying. The thing you are UPSET about, if you slow down, is probably something on Your End that You need to Own. Take time off - build a practice and a lifestyle that you can pre-plan vacations for the year. Here are links to his Quadrant Analysis courses. https://southeast-sports-seminars.thinkific.com/courses/quadrant-analysis-movement https://practice-mechanics.com/quadrant-analysis/ We discussed the anterior neck and here is a video on Practice Mechanics showing the basics of how Dr. Rob Pape approaches that. https://practice-mechanics.com/anterior-neck-manual-treatment/ As a summary and bridge to southeast seminars here is how all 3 fit together. You would take Dr. Riddle's FAKTR course to learn the myofascial release, cupping, bands etc and then transition the patient into rehab to fitness and functional loading with Dr. Teter. However you would learn Dr. Pape's Quadrant Analysis (breaking the body down into traceable patterns) to make a diagnosis and find functional deficits and patterns to apply those other two seminars to get the results.

Would you like to avoid surgery to eliminate pain or recover from a surgery faster? Would you like to increase range of motion and improve your daily activities and your way of life? Instrument assisted soft tissue mobilisation (IASTM) is a term used synonymously with Graston, FAKTR, Vyne, Hawk Grip and more. Typically these are all brands but while the style and technique may be taught a particular way by a certain company, IASTM’s foundation and principle is the same and that is to break up fibrotic adhesions causing neuromusculoskeletal restriction. Check out our podcast that discusses IASTM, conditions it treats and how to take advantage of this highly recommended AWESOME treatment.   Functionised Podcast Show Notes Instagram Facebook Do you have questions or comments?

Functional Soft Tissue is a concept to help evaluate, treat, and stabilize soft tissue injuries through several different pathways: provocation, motion, resistance, functional positions or activities and proprioception. All of these pathways are neurological bombardments of the central nervous system which lead to the ultimate Control-Alt-Delete and reset of all of those tissues to allow for proper neurological function. - Dr. Greg Doerr JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | REVIEW THIS PODCAST 20% OFF ORGANIFI - USE CODE: WELLNESSFORCE Even with continuous use and the latest developments, taping still continues to get a bad rap about not being an effective form of healing the body's muscle tissues.

How kinesiology tape helps your body align by helping improve your movement and range of motion. Approaching Functional Soft Tissue and how tape plays a role with it. What he learned from his father about the art of healing and the emotional component to recovering from a physical injury. The difference between allopathic medicine and its approach to helping patients compared to other types of medicine like a holistic approach.

First of all, you need to know whether or not taping is right for the situation by following different algorithms. The initial step is deciding whether or not you have an area that's dysfunctional." - Dr. Greg Doerr "I'm the hugest placebo on the planet. I'm upbeat, happy, and smiley. I have this constant high energy that would actually put a patient in a positive, emotional state. When someone can transpire that type of excitement, happiness, and energy to a patient, that patient will want to get better." - Dr. Greg Doerr "Since taping is a neurological stimulation, there's no such thing as sham taping. Whether you put the tape from top to bottom, across, or on a diagonal, you're still going to touch the same exact skin receptors. So, the significant change between somebody who's sham taped for somebody who's taped, it's not going to be large enough to make taping look like a relevant form of treatment. That's why we need better research on taping." - Dr. Greg Doerr "All of our injuries start with poor mechanical posture. When we talk about proper posture, everyone immediately thinks about the spine. However, every single body part needs good posture: the shoulder, the hip, the knee, foot, and ankle. All of these have their own neutral posture position and we can assist them with taping techniques." - Dr. Greg Doerr "We cannot eliminate stress from our lives, but we can have proper outlets for it. Television is not a proper outlet, but exercise and music are proper outlets. Ask yourself if you're finding ways to actually relieve your stress so that you can create some kind of balance within your own brain. That is our greatest challenge; trying to find some type of homeostasis within our mental well-being." - Dr. Greg Doerr Links From Today's Show: About FAKTR of Functional Soft Tissue https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4s-Vez8QOjk Dr. Greg Doerr Twitter LinkedIn Functional Soft Tissue  Facebook Twitter YouTube Bergen Chiropractic and Sports Rehabilitation Center Facebook FAKTR - Functional and Kinetic Treatment with Rehab FTMI - Scoliosis What Is The Graston Technique?
