Performance Place Sports Care Podcast

At my office I teach my interns how to play the "ring ring" game. In a nutshell, as chiropractors and physical therapists, we often times we get phone calls from possible new patients asking questions: How much for a quick adjustment? Do you take my insurance? Do you do XYZ soft tissue work? These patients are really wanting one thing... to feel better. In my interpretation, their questions are based upon what they believe to be barriers to their success, but really the only barriers is themselves. Listen to this podcast and see what the "ring ring" game is all about and how it can help you succeed in building a new patient base. SHOW NOTES AT https://www.p2sportscare.com/podcast/

Recently I asked if some student listeners would be willing to share their experiences of how they use the information they learn on this podcast within their schooling. I posted the request on Instagram and had a flood of people ask to be on the show to share.  So, I thought it would be interesting to spend some time over a few months on learning what the listeners are saying! I learned a few things along the way :) Hopefully this interview is empowering for you as well. SHOW NOTES   Reach Mark at http://www.MarkMurdoch.ca

David Hanscom is a retired orthopedic surgeon, who interestingly decided to stop practicing because he no longer agreed that doing spinal surgery was needed with many patients. Interesting right?! He decided to go full time with a more conservative approach in promoting his book about high quality patient education about chronic pain. The book covers how one can manage their chronic pain without the use of invasive procedures or excessive drug use. He's the author of the book, "Back in Control." Reach out to him on his website https://backincontrol.com/ SHOW NOTES https://www.p2sportscare.com/podcast/

I was introduced to Dennis Dunphy through a past guest Jesse Macado.  Dennis Dunphy is a co-creator of Stick Mobility. After looking into what the whole practice of Stick Mobility was all about, I decided to have him on. The application of developing tension (or as he said irradiation) through positions and movements was apparent in his method and could be extremely useful in clinical practice. He's a great conversationalist and an interesting guy. Thanks again Dennis!

Greg Lehman is one of the presenters on the PRO Chiropractic Online CE Series. I was fortunate to have flagged him down from his busy lecturing schedule to get this hour of conversation about Pain Science in! Greg is a chiropractor based out of Canada. Some of the fine points we go into are: - building your cup - fear avoidance behavior - the pain is just an alarm concept - his background of how he came to think how he does - chiropractic as a profession   Greg Lehman Bio: "Prior to my clinical career I was fortunate enough to receive a Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council MSc graduate scholarship that permitted me to be one of only two yearly students to train with Professor Stuart McGill in his Occupational Biomechanics Laboratory subsequently publishing more than 20 peer reviewed papers in the manual therapy and exercise biomechanics field. I was an assistant professor at the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College teaching a graduate level course in Spine Biomechanics and Instrumentation as we

I thought now would be a great time to finally interview one of my old interns, Dr. Jermey Dinkin DC. Now practicing in New Jersey, Jermey is one of my "go to" suggestions when people ask for help on the northern east coast. Jermey graduated SCUHS chiropractic college in Fall 2018. While attended internship at my clinic, he became a (dare I say it) master of management of lumbar discs, hip FAI and easy integration into loading. I dig his style. I know it's hard to say "mastery" with a new grad but he's really damn good at it... better than some older chiropractors even! Thanks for being a great friend. The experience of internship paved the way for many interns to come from my office. Before you, I had no plans of eduction of new docs. Thanks for allowing me to learn with you on your journey. Seb Video of Jermey learning to do a video... Fun Stuff :)  SHOW NOTES http://rsmsportsmed.com

I recently hit a small road block in creation of my workshop (Off-loading MSK Pathology) and had to reach out to some friends for ideas. My intention of the workshop is to improve the state of care in the chiropractic profession. I've really been challenged over the last year to explain things in a clear way to other sports medicine clinicians so they can use what I have learned in a clinical standpoint. i don't have a flow chart but I do have a clear intention in my exam/ care... but how should I write it on a presentation?! This is a brainstorming session I needed as I created my continuing education workshop for chiropractors and movement providers. SHOW NOTES  

Recently I was asked to record the first hour of Theory of the Off-loading Chiropractic continuing education workshop that will be located in Huntington Beach CA on June 8-9th 2019.

Olivia's Blog Post on the 5 stages Olivia reached out to me on Instagram and said.... "Hey man, you should get some podcasts about some labrums of the shoulder." She was right, I didn't have anything so I asked Olivia Petras from Canada to come on to give me her story of success following a traumatic shoulder labrum injury and surgery to follow.   Enjoy!   Show notes that can be found in full on http://p2sportscare.com ... just search Olivia!

I had a friend come stay with me for a few days for an low back evaluation and stay in treatment for her on-going low back pain.  In this show, I cover the whole story and the things I learned in the process.  I recorded part of her examination that day that will appear on Youtube as well.  Subscribe to my channel to see it when it comes live.   SHOW NOTES PAGE

I've done some podcasting and writing on the topic of sports hernias in the past but I feel the need to update the information I've released. Over the past few years I've learned more about sports hernias and my success rate for groin pain has really skyrocketed. Allow me to share what I thought to be true about sports hernia (and other types of groin pain) via podcast today.   SHOW NOTES    

Recently I released a book about my personal experiences with low back pain, including the mental mindset I needed to accept/ perform rehab. It's been months since the release. A few of you have asked for an update on how it's going... here it is! I've learned a few lessons through the publication of my first book, which I'll share with you today. Allows getting better!  GET THE BOOK HERE   Podcasts I referenced who've interviewed me to date: Back Pain Liberation Podcast (4 sessions) Burpees In My Thirties  Kokoro Movement Confessions of a Fitness Coach    

WORKSHOP DETAILS   SHOW NOTES   A common conversation I have with my patients is WHY I'd like them to MODIFY some of their weightlifting or ADD resistance training into their exit plan from my care. Typically this is about a 30 min conversation that's always rushed because I have other patients waiting and honestly it's more than I like to share within them early in care. I would like them to focus on other things at this point in their care. The exit plan should be to incorporate some weight training (in the Dan John fashion) as a way to keep out of my office. Application of resistance training should be for the purpose of getting to a DIFFERENT GOAL. Fitness should not be used with a single goal of looking good. I go through it all in this podcast.   Links:  Dan John Interventions   NOTE: There's a possibility this podcast will not be free within 6 months. Listen to it now, as it may be removed and offered for a small fee because I tend to think people absorb more information when they have skin in the ga

WORKSHOP DETAILS   SHOW NOTES   The shoulder labrum is a common structure of the shoulder that is blamed for shoulder pain, especially with throwing athletes. A listener brought to my attention that it is a diagnosis I have not covered in detail. In a coming episode, I plan on interviewing someone with a shoulder labral repair to hear exactly what occurred and what it took to recover. Docs: Please share this episode with a patient you know whose' suffering from shoulder pain they believe is from a labral issue. It will help them understand many of the consideration surrounding diagnosis and misdiagnosis of the labrum as the pain generator.   References can be found at www.p2sportscare.com.
