Elisa Gillespie returns to the Best of LKN for the first time since November 2022 — and a lot has changed. After years operating as Gillespie Physical Therapy and then Movement Matters, Elisa launched Proactive Motion Physical Therapy in July 2025. With 17 years as a board-certified orthopedic physical therapist and 11 years of dry needling experience, she's built a practice focused on catching aches, pains, and injuries before they become chronic. She's also grown the team, welcoming Dr. Lauren Craig to lead a new pelvic floor and women's health service line.In this conversation, Elisa shares what Proactive treats beyond the usual post-surgical cases — including neck pain, tension headaches and migraines, jaw pain, and a recent wave of pickleball-related tennis elbow. She talks about her community involvement with Fit for Mom Lake Norman, her plans to expand pelvic floor therapy through 2026, and why reaching out to a trusted PT early can save you weeks of pain. Proactive Motion is located just off North Cross Drive near Birkdale Village.Proactive Motion Physical Therapy15905 Brookway Dr #4206Huntersville, NC 28078(704) 794-8012proactivemotionpt.comThe Best of LKNhttps://thebestoflkn.com/Hosted by:Jeff Hammhttps://lknreal.com/Support the show

Send us Fan MailI have been in your shoes — starting strong, riding the wave of motivation, and then one day, without warning, just... stopping.

In this episode of The BIG Home Ed Conversations Podcast, Kelly and Ashley explore this week's “topic from the hat” challenge: lesser known sports. They start by going down the rabbit hole of strange and wonderful sports from around the world (and even a few from right here in the UK), and it quickly opens up bigger conversations about creativity, culture, community, and what sport is actually for. We chat about: The weird and wonderful sports humans have invented (and why some of them are genuinely shocking) Chess boxing (yes, really): alternating rounds of chess and boxing, and what that says about “mental” vs “physical” sport The difference between a sport and a game (and using the dictionary to define it properly) How quickly a sport can grow once people actually see it (media, Olympics, exposure, and suddenly everyone wants to try it) Why “lesser known” doesn't mean “less valuable” — it might just mean it hasn't had the PR yet How sport can be about fun, community, identity, tradition, and entertainment (not just winning) Making space for movement in other areas of their education (especially for neurodivergent kids), and why physical activity supports mental health too How this topic can branch into loads of learning: history, geography, PE, science (heart rate/pulse), maths (scoring), literacy (writing rules), and even coding-style logic (if this happens, then what?) Kelly and Ashley also share some of the real-life ways this topic showed up in their week — from hobby horsing and play-based competitions, to watching Paralympic sport and noticing how many different bodies and abilities can be included in athleticism. If you're joining in with the weekly topic challenge, we'd love to hear what you did with it — and remember, this is never about pressure or “doing enough”.

Frequent movement plays a critical role in midlife health. A single workout cannot fully offset long hours of sitting. In this episode, we explore the idea of movement nutrition and how regular small movements support joints, metabolism, and energy. Daily movement may be the missing ingredient for many women over 40. How much do you move throughout your day?

In this episode of Aligned Vitality, Tanya explores why movement matters so much in this season of life — not just for weight or fitness, but for energy, hormone balance, blood sugar stability, mental clarity, stress resilience, and nervous system support. From a functional health perspective, movement helps improve circulation, oxygen delivery, lymphatic flow, glucose regulation, and mitochondrial energy production. But movement also has a spiritual parallel. Throughout Scripture, we see the language of walking — walking by the Spirit, following Jesus, and taking faithful steps forward. This episode offers a more grace-filled perspective on movement in midlife. It's not about punishment, perfection, or pushing harder. It's about supporting the body God designed and taking small, meaningful steps that create momentum both physically and spiritually. If you've been feeling stuck, tired, or disconnected, this conversation will help you understand why movement matters — and how to begin in a simple, supportive way. In This Episode Why movement supports energy, circulation, hormones, and mental clarity How inactivity contributes to fatigue, brain fog, stiffness, and feeling stuck Why movement in midlife should be supportive, not punishing How walking and gentle movement help regulate blood sugar and stress Why starting feels hard when the nervous system is overwhelmed The biblical meaning of “walking by the Spirit” How spiritual stagnation can mirror physical stagnation Simple ways to begin moving your body and your faith forward Scripture Referenced Galatians 5:16 (NIV) “So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.” James 2:17 (NIV) “Faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.” John 10:27 (NIV) “My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.” Key Takeaway Movement does not have to be intense to be effective. In midlife, the body often responds best to gentle, consistent, supportive movement — and the same is true spiritually. Small steps create momentum. I hope this episode blesses you!

This week, I'm diving into a fascinating piece of research I spotted in The Week; a meta-analysis of 82 studies from University College London looking at how physical activity affects menstrual pain and PMS. The findings are striking: women who move less have a 67% higher risk of painful periods and a 22% higher risk of PMS symptoms.But this episode isn't just about the data, it's about how it intersects with real life. I'm sharing my own PCOS story, from being diagnosed at 17 and barely moving, to being 47, active, and experiencing far fewer symptoms. We'll also unpack the confused (and sometimes misleading) world of cycle-syncing advice online, including what's genuinely helpful and what's been oversimplified by social media.Plus, I'm talking about the growing role of GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy: where they can fit into women's hormonal and metabolic health, and why it's not a choice between medication or movement. For many women, the two work beautifully together.Whether you experience period pain, PMS, PCOS, or you're simply curious about how movement and hormones overlap, this episode is all about giving you tools, not rules. Think of it as a realistic, compassionate look at women's health, packed with evidence, lived experience, and nuance.In this episode:The UCL study linking activity levels to menstrual pain and PMSMy PCOS journey: 17 vs 47What cycle syncing gets right, and very, very wrongWhy influencers and experts like Dr Stacy Sims and Dr Vonda Wright create both empowerment and confusionHow exercise supports hormones, mood, metabolism, and overall cycle healthA realistic approach to training across the menstrual cycleWhere GLP-1 medications fit into the pictureWhy movement is a powerful tool but never the only one.Hey!

Movement is one of the most powerful ways babies learn about their bodies, their environment, and even their emotions. But in today's world of baby gear, screen time, and jam-packed schedules, purposeful movement often takes a backseat. That's why today's episode is all about why movement matters and how to support your baby's physical development with simple, intentional activities and play. To help us explore this topic, I'm joined by Dr. Allison Mell, pediatric physical therapist, founder of Tots on Target, and mom of four. Who is Dr. Allison Mell? Dr. Allison Mell is a pediatric physical therapist with over 15 years of clinical experience. She is the founder of Tots on Target, an online platform designed to help parents understand and support their child's gross motor development from birth through toddlerhood. Through her expert courses, resources, and social media education, Dr. Allison is on a mission to make developmental support accessible, practical, and empowering. It's evident that she is passionate about helping parents understand their child's developmental milestones without feeling overwhelmed or guilty. Through her work, you'll find that she teaches families how to turn everyday moments into powerful opportunities for growth, whether your baby is learning to roll, crawl, walk, or just explore the world around them. She lives in New Jersey with her husband and four children. What Did We Discuss? n this episode, Dr. Allison and I chick-chat about the biggest movement milestones in the first few years of life and what parents can do to support their child's gross motor development confidently. We discuss: What typical motor milestones look like in babies and toddlers Why “containers” (like swings and bouncers) may delay movement skills When to be concerned if a child isn't reaching a milestone on time How sensory processing and emotional regulation are linked to movement Easy, fun, and budget-friendly ways to promote healthy motor development What kind of play actually helps build physical skills, and what to skip Why movement is about more than muscles: it's about confidence, too When and how to seek physical therapy support if needed Dr. Allison also shares her story of building Tots on Target and what inspired her to bring expert-backed, judgment-free guidance to more families, especially those who feel stuck between “just wait and see” and “you need therapy.” Final Thoughts Whether you're cheering on your baby's first roll or chasing after a curious toddler, this episode is a reminder that every wiggle, reach, and stumble matters. Movement isn't just about milestones; it's about building confidence, resilience, and connection from the very beginning. With the right support and simple, purposeful play, you can help your child thrive in ways that last a lifetime!

Send us a textEvery movement matters. That's the powerful message Dr. Mark Fleming brings to his work with autistic individuals seeking to improve their physical wellness. Diagnosed with autism at age 11 due to motor and speech challenges, Dr. Fleming has transformed his personal experience into a mission that's changing lives across the autism community.The conversation reveals how seemingly simple movements can dramatically improve quality of life when approached with understanding and expertise. Dr. Fleming shares the story of preventing a young client's knee surgery through dedicated movement therapy – a success that proved even more critical as the child later experienced significant growth in height. These tangible results highlight the vital importance of adaptive physical training for neurodivergent individuals.What makes Dr. Fleming's approach revolutionary is his deep recognition that autism manifests differently in each person and fluctuates daily. "I know how my autism affects me, but I don't know how it affects them," he explains. This perspective allows him to create truly individualized programs focused on functional movements that directly translate to improved independence: squats that mimic sitting and standing, push-pull motions for daily tasks, balance exercises, and reaching movements.His insights on nutrition for sensory-sensitive individuals provide a refreshing alternative to rigid diet plans. Rather than overwhelming clients with dramatic dietary overhauls, Dr. Fleming advocates for gradual modifications and supplementation, drawing from his own experiences with food sensitivities. "If someone's eating ten cheeseburgers daily, let's reduce to seven and add a vitamin," he suggests pragmatically.From the child who first walked to chase an ice cream truck to the doctoral graduate defying expectations, Dr. Fleming's journey exemplifies the power of understanding individual motivation and capability. Connect with him on social media under "Official Dr Mark" to discover how specialized movement training could transform your or your loved one's daily living experiences.Support the show

Are you one of the millions of Americans who eat the Standard American Diet? Even if you're not, you're likely at risk of developing pre-diabeties, insulin resistance, and chronic inflammation. But, DON'T panic, because today's episode is packed with simple steps to help you take control of your blood sugar and lower your risk of diabetes and chronic disease.On this Salad with a Side of Fries episode, host Jenn Trepeck tackles the hard truth: many people are already pre-diabetic and don't even know it. From hidden insulin resistance to chronic inflammation, Jenn breaks down how the American diet and lifestyle are fueling a national health crisis. You'll learn how poor sleep, stress, a lack of fiber, and nutrient-depleted foods undermine your metabolic health—and what you can do today to take control and manage your risks. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, who discusses wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store.IN THIS EPISODE:(00:00) Why is the Standard American diet the recipe for pre-diabetes and diabetes, and what is insulin resistance(04:18) Metabolic health connects to every system, and the ultra-processed food dilemma(09:48) Why supplements are important(14:30) Everyone is pre-diabetic, unless. Nutrition: protein, fiber, quality fat(21:31) America's fiber problem and the role of the microbiome(26:55) Our society is sedentary(30:35) The impact stress and loneliness can have on your health(34:56) Are you sleep deprived(37:30) Let's talk about the environment and toxins(42:07) If you don't like it, don't eat it and focus on preventionKEY TAKEAWAYS:Most people eating the Standard American Diet are already pre-diabetic due to high consumption of ultra-processed foods, even if their labs don't reflect it yet. Modern farming, soil depletion, and long-distance transport have stripped our food of nutrients, making quality sourcing and supplementation essential.Staying ahead of metabolic disease means taking daily action—moving your body, managing stress, eating well, sleeping, and staying connected. Even a short walk after a meal can significantly reduce blood sugar spikes. Daily activity improves energy and focus, builds muscle, enhances insulin sensitivity, and monitors glucose levels.Just because a drink is labeled “prebiotic” doesn't mean it replaces real vegetables. Whole fruits and vegetables provide a variety of fibers that support gut health more effectively than most supplements or processed drinks. You can't supplement your way out of poor nutrition. Supplements are only as good as their quality. Many synthetic options don't break down or absorb adequately, making them useless. Food first, then smart supplementation.Chronic stress triggers hormonal changes that lead to insulin resistance and fat storage. The damage builds over time because most people don't recognize their stress. Managing stress is just as crucial as managing diet and exercise.QUOTES: (08:56) “Our food supply is ripening while in transit, not connected to the vine where nutrients come from.” - Jenn Trepeck(18:54) “Variety is your friend. Eat the rainbow.” - Jenn Trepeck(23:30) “I'm a big fan of supplements, but you cannot supplement your way out of poor nutrition. Food first, then mart supplementation.” - Jenn Trepeck(39:36) “Next time you need to replace a mattress or a pillow. Let's make sure it's a material that isn't going to off-gas toxins.” - Jenn Trepeck"It comes down to default vs design because the way our world is set-up around us, the default would easily be the recipe for pre-diabetes and diabetes.

The absence of physical activity from critical national health policy conversations represents a profound failure of advocacy that demands immediate attention. In this eye-opening episode, our host, Michael Stack explores how the Department of Health and Human Services' recent announcement to combat chronic disease through "safe, wholesome food, clean water and elimination of environmental toxins" completely omitted any mention of movement or physical activity – one of the most powerful health intervention available to Americans.This glaring oversight serves as a wake-up call for everyone passionate about movement and health. We simply aren't winning as a physical activity community when we remain invisible in national health policy conversations. Despite overwhelming scientific evidence showing that just 150 minutes of weekly movement delivers more health benefits than any other intervention of comparable time commitment, physical activity continues to be marginalized or completely forgotten in public health planning.In this episode, we outline concrete steps for becoming effective advocates – from building relationships with local officials to engaging with state and federal representatives. The path forward requires both top-down organizational advocacy and grassroots engagement from passionate individuals willing to have conversations that elevate physical activity to its rightful place alongside food, water, and environmental factors. Until we secure our seat at the policy table, America's health will continue to suffer from this critical oversight.

This week Dr Louise is joined by Dr Hussain Al-Zubaidi, our brand-new fitness and longevity coach on the balance app. Dr Hussain is a GP who runs an NHS-based fitness and lifestyle clinic that helps patients to eat better, move more and connect with their community. Dr Hussain is a long-distance triathlete but he hasn't always been fit – a shock medical appointment prompted him into action after years of inertia and slowly but steadily he lost 24 kilos. Here Dr Hussain shares what he's learnt, including shifting your mindset from thinking about exercise as an obligation to choosing which movements you enjoy, be it a walk with friends or dancing. He explains why menopause can pose a challenge but also an opportunity to figure out what positive steps you can take for a healthier, happier you. Finally, Dr Hussain shares three things you can do in this new year to improve your quality of life and longevity: Get a partner in crime – someone who can support you. Without my wife, I wouldn't have made these changes. Try to control the cues in your life - we all have cues that trigger behaviours that we're not happy with. You might need to change your evening routine, for example. Harness self-belief. It really matters and is so powerful.

Movement Matters: Keeping Women Over 50 Fit and Fabulous at Work Descript Editing Software Link! Alicia Jones - Over 50 Fit and Fabulous www.aliciajoneshealthyliving.com Contact Alicia Here In today's episode, I had the pleasure of interviewing the incredible Alicia Jones, a fellow personal trainer and the driving force behind the renowned brand "Over 50 Fit and Fabulous." Alicia and I recognize the pervasive issue of sedentary lifestyles in the workplace. With many jobs demanding long hours of sitting at desks, it's becoming increasingly challenging for women to prioritize movement and maintain their overall well-being. Both Alicia and I exchange insights and strategies on how we guide our clients to incorporate more movement throughout their workday. We discuss practical examples, such as incorporating stretching exercises, taking short walking breaks, and making mindful choices to increase daily step count. We also highlight the significance of proper posture and ergonomics to prevent common workplace injuries and alleviate chronic pain. Throughout the episode, Alicia's passion for empowering women to embrace movement shines through.

Most people think that if they want to transform their body, they want to build muscle. Effort is the big lever. And while effort is an incredible important lever, exercise quality is often a bigger opportunity for most people because it's never something that anyone thinks about.” 03:08: “I think your goal is should be to master your body. We only get one, and you have this incredible opportunity to connect deeply, to be closer to your body, understand what your body does, the way it feels, the way it moves, so that as we age, We're able to sustain a high quality of life.” 05:11: “So quality movement, in my perspective, is the ability to dynamically create. A rigid state, as rigid as you need to be. If I wanna squat 200 pounds versus 400 pounds versus 600 pounds, that's a different degree of rigidity. And on the other end of it, I wanna be able to move freely and without restriction.” 12:57: “Exercise is not the end result, right? Exercise is simply creating a stimulus, it's creating a signal. And most people think that if I exercise, I'm doing something good for myself. And while you are, in some senses, the goal of exercise is actually to create the adaptation.” ABOUT THE BLUEPRINT PODCAST: The BluePrint Podcast is for busy professionals and Household CEOs who care deeply about their families, career, and health.
