America's healthcare system is failing because it focuses on prescriptions instead of prevention. In this episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nick Giordano speaks with Dr. Chad Walding, Doctor of Physical Therapy and cofounder of NativePath, to expose why Americans are becoming weaker and sicker despite record spending on healthcare. Dr. Walding explains how collagen plays a vital role in maintaining strength, mobility, and overall health. Poor nutrition and lifestyle habits have led to a fiscal crisis and a national security threat. Together, they discuss the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement, emphasizing how nutrition, transparency, and self-reliance can help rebuild America's health from the ground up.  Episode Highlights: Why the U.S. system focuses on treatment over prevention, and how that mindset fuels chronic disease. From obesity and food quality to supplement transparency, Dr. Walding and Professor Giordano explore how restoring nutrition, awareness, and accountability can Make America Healthy Again. Dr. Walding explains why collagen is essential for maintaining strength, mobility, and vitality, and the major role it plays in reversing the damage caused by poor nutrition.

Most private practice owners aren't being held back by their competition — they're being held back by fear. In this week's episode, Brian unpacks the two types of mistakes that quietly sabotage your success: The Conscious Mistake: When you overanalyze and delay decisions until opportunity passes. The Invisible Mistake: When you make choices on autopilot, using old ideas that no longer fit your current situation. You'll learn how to recognize both, how to stop “slow-rolling” your decisions, and how to confidently act like a CEO — without letting fear of mistakes stall your progress.

In this episode of the Optimal Body Podcast, Dr. Jen and Dr. Dom—both doctors of physical therapy—address widespread myths and misconceptions surrounding neck pain and posture. They delve into the natural variation in cervical spine curvature, explaining that straightened neck curves and age-related degenerative changes are frequently seen on imaging and are often a normal part of the aging process, not necessarily linked to pain or dysfunction. They stress the importance of not letting fear-based interpretations of MRI or X-ray results dictate treatment decisions. Instead, they advocate for proactive approaches to posture and neck pain such as regular movement, targeted exercise, and education to empower individuals in managing their symptoms. Dr. Jen and Dr. Dom provide practical tips and evidence-based strategies to help find relief from neck pain, improve mobility and posture, and support overall neck health.VivoBarefoot Discount:Support your feet and ankles with VivoBarefoot shoes—with perfect styles for any occasion!

Introducing the Prime Mover Series- a new kind of episode we are adding to our monthly posts where we will be breaking down all that goes into body movement. From everyday tasks like walking up and down stairs, grocery shopping to professional athletics, and more! Our first Prime Mover episode we interview Charley Meade, Physical Therapist & clinic manager, on his selection of movement: kicking a football. Charley explains every muscle involved in the kick and the importance of strength and mobility in the muscles that aren't technically the main focus of the action, those that stabilize, or as Matt declares, the "Prime Holders". Charley also explains what treatment would look like for athletes having trouble or pain in these movements.These episodes will be great for students in PT School, refreshers for PTs listening, and general education.Stay tuned for more Oxford PTs and the movements they choose!Did you know that you don't need a doctor's prescription to receive physical therapy?

We all hear a lot about making sure we are using "evidence-based" or "evidence-informed" practice, but what exactly is that?  How can we ensure we are clearly taking the research and applying it correctly and effectively in the real world?  How do we know when to generalize and when not to?  What things within the context of the patient or therapist should be considered when we are choosing the best treatment strategies for our patients?  These are the things D.r Zach Baker and Dr. Corrie Jones chat through in this podcast episode!

In this episode of the Braun Performance & Rehab Podcast, Dan is joined by Tyler Kallasy to discuss strategies for building a better career in performance and rehab, including the blended practice model developed by Ray Gorman.Tyler is the founder of Beyond Pain Physical Therapy and a Doctor of Physical Therapy dedicated to helping people move, perform, and live without limitation. He founded Beyond Pain to deliver a higher level of care than what the traditional healthcare system allows. After spending years working inside that system, he saw how rushed and impersonal it often was, how little time there was to truly understand the person in front of him. That realization inspired him to create something different. At Beyond Pain, Tyler has built a practice where care slows down, conversations go deeper, and every plan is built around the individual—their goals, their body, and their life—not an insurance checklist.Now based in Denver, Colorado, Tyler lives with his fiancée, Courtney, and their two dogs, Cascade and Porter. Together, they spend as much time outdoors as possible—hiking, camping, road-tripping, and exploring new places. That sense of adventure keeps him grounded and inspired.Fitness and movement have always been central to Tyler's life. He's run the New York City Marathon, completed an ultramarathon, and competed in CrossFit and powerlifting. Through both personal challenges and athletic pursuits, he's experienced the highs of peak performance and the setbacks of injury—insights that deeply inform his approach to care.Tyler is currently writing a book for active adults and athletes who feel stuck in the frustrating cycle of pain, setbacks, and false starts. The book blends science, experience, and practical strategies to help readers better understand their pain, rebuild trust in their bodies, and create lasting progress they can feel proud of.For Tyler, Beyond Pain Physical Therapy is more than just a clinic—it's a space where people's goals, struggles, and stories matter. Whether someone is working through pain, returning to performance, or simply striving to feel strong and capable again, Tyler's mission is to help them get there.For more on Tyler, be sure to follow @tylerkallasy.dpt*SEASON 6 of the Braun Performance & Rehab Podcast is brought to you by Isophit.

Whether you work in a solo private practice, or a large health network, no doubt you're considering costs when it comes to deciding what to change and perhaps what to implement - or de-implement - in your practice. Perhaps you're in the position of making decisions on behalf of a health service or you are trying to quantify and communicate the costs and benefits of treatments you study in a research setting? Today is part 1 of a 2-part chat with Dr Codie Primeau about health economics in musculoskeletal rehabilitation, which has something for everyone working in health care. We're covering how to read a health economics analysis to decide whether the analysis can help you navigate the complex decisions you're grappling with. Dr Primeau is a physiotherapist and Assistant Professor in the School of Physical Therapy at Western University in London, Canada, and an Affiliate Scientist with Arthritis Research Canada. His research focuses on arthritis, chronic pain, and pelvic health, using a blend of qualitative and quantitative methods to improve patient care and outcomes, including health economics evaluation. ------------------------------ RESOURCES From whose perspective is cost-effectiveness judged?: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6351264/ Review of health economics evaluations in hip and knee orthopaedics: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34262974/

Summary In this episode, Melvin Pitz and Cornel Tol from the Headache, Pain, and Concussion Training Institute (HPCTI) delve into the intricacies of managing concussions and post-concussion symptoms. They advocate for using the term "prolonged post-concussion symptoms" over "mild traumatic brain injury" to reduce the nocebo effect associated with the latter. The discussion highlights the importance of a multidisciplinary and biopsychosocial approach in diagnosis and treatment, emphasizing the significance of early intervention and patient education. Melvin and Cornel share insights into diagnostic criteria, the impact of framing on patient outcomes, and the gaps in current practices, particularly in the Netherlands. They stress the need for physiotherapists to be proactive in education and networking to bridge the knowledge gap in concussion management. The episode also touches on the neurophysiological aspects of concussion, the shortcomings of monodisciplinary approaches, and the potential of a treatable traits approach for better patient outcomes. Listeners are encouraged to rethink the role of physiotherapy and consider the broader implications of prolonged symptoms, including psychological and social factors. The episode provides practical advice for physiotherapists and healthcare professionals on how to improve their practice and patient care in the context of concussions. Guests Today's guests are Melvin Pitz and Cornel Tol from the HPC-TI — short for Headache, Pain & Concussion Training Institute.

What a perfect way to finish off season 8! This episode with Dr. Barbara Parks was fun, fascinating and fully geeky - my fave. We turned over a lot of stones, discussing clicker training - why many people think it doesn't work, what can go wrong and how to move into a place of understanding and success with this very helpful tool, especially in the realm of body work and other care practices, getting into many of my burning questions about equine body work, from how to set a boundary with a client, to when to have a hard conversation with an owner, to what to do when your treatments aren't feeling like they are working. We traveled far in this conversation and it was a treat! This is definitely a must-listen episode if you are an equine manual therapist or if you have a body worker for your horse(s).  After this episode we're taking a breather as I launch the Whole Horse Collective, my new communuty membership, based on nine years of the Whole Horse Apprenticeship. Keep your eyes peeled for more details! I'll be back for the start of season 9 in late November 2025 - more awesome horsey guests and mind and heart-opening conversations to come. See you then!  Dr. Barbara Parks is a licensed Doctor of Physical Therapy and Certified Equine Rehabilitation Practitioner who has built her practice around the intersection of evidence-based rehabilitation and whole-horse wellness. Barbara holds multiple certifications, including NBCAAM-certified Equine Massage Therapist and PATH Intl. Certified Therapeutic Riding Instructor, and has completed extensive continuing education in equine biomechanics, orthopedic assessment, hoof care, nutrition, and behavior. Her approach to equine rehabilitation is integrative and guided by a deep respect for the horse's physical and emotional experience. She specializes in using positive reinforcement training as both a therapeutic tool and a way to improve equine body awareness, movement, and emotional regulation during rehab. Based in the greater Nashville, Tennessee area, Barbara offers in-person therapy for horse and rider, virtual consultations, online educational courses, and rehab boarding on a track system designed to support natural movement and healing. Whether she's working with a high-level performance horse or helping a backyard companion recover from injury, Barbara's mission is the same: to support long-term soundness and whole-horse wellness through compassionate, informed care. https://www.drbarbaraparks.com/

Matt and Allie are back with this month's clinical article(s)! This month Matt pulled together three separate articles that cover repairing, testing, and strengthening the ACL as it relates to sensorimotor dysfunction. The first article dives into what sensorimotor dysfunction is and how ACL injuries affect it. They also found that repairing a patient's ligament, instead of replacing it, decreases the probability of patients needing surgery on their other knee. Hear about how they compare a patient's function based on their visual reliance. The second article tests ACL improvement and early implementation of treating/ testing the patient's proprioception. The third article is a case study where a patient's improvement in PT was being held back by his own brain. His therapists threw in a few distractions to keep his brain work while his body is exercising, and his confidence and functionality improved significantly. Read all three articles here:1. https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/josptcases.2025.00892.https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2025.127253. https://www.jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.2025.12726Did you know that you don't need a doctor's prescription to receive physical therapy?

Arthritis is one of the leading causes of disability, and many people believe there is little they can do about it. In today's episode, Dr. Karena Wu joins me to share how physical therapists can offer effective treatments, from manual therapy to exercise regimens. Dr. Wu, a board-certified orthopedic physical therapist with advanced training in manual therapies and over 24 years of experience, explains how techniques like cupping, dry needling, and blood flow restriction can aid in recovery and even delay the need for surgery. We also discuss why early intervention is crucial and how to locate a physical therapist who specializes in arthritis treatment.  Whether you're experiencing arthritis or seeking preventive care, this episode is packed with essential information to help improve your quality of life. "Studies have shown that manual therapy with exercise after is always more effective because you're loosening up things that need to be loosened up in order for the muscles and the function to be there. So you always have to do both to restore as much function and get back to quality of life with the least amount of pain." ~ Dr. Karena Wu   In this episode: - [02:15] - Why arthritis is becoming more common and its risk factors - [05:20] - Physical therapy in arthritis treatment: the role of various specialists - [13:16] - Mobilization vs. manipulation - [17:37] - The benefits of cupping and dry needling for arthritis pain relief - [22:55] - Blood flow restriction: a game changer for arthritis treatment - [28:22] - Prevention strategies: why early intervention is crucial for arthritis - [32:55] - How stem cell and PRP treatments can complement physical therapy - [42:35] - How often should someone see a physical therapist? - [44:32] - Final advice from Dr. Wu and how to get in touch   Resources mentioned - Dr. Karena Wu's website and clinic information - https://activecarephysicaltherapy.com/ (Use the code Happy Bones to get a 20% discount on certain services) - Get quality supplements at Margie's Fullscript dispensary for a discounted price - https://tinyurl.com/supplementsforless    More about Margie - Website - https://margiebissinger.com/  - Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/p/Margie-Bissinger-MS-PT-CHC-100063542905332/  - Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/margiebissinger/?hl=en    DISCLAIMER – The information presented on this podcast should not be construed as medical advice.
