Performance Place Sports Care Podcast

Achilles Tendon and Heel Pain are common issues runners and triathletes deal with. Many suffer for years if they don't find the right treatment for their pain. Dr. Dawne Costantino and I discuss treatment options for Achilles tendon regional pain and heel pain. We also cover possible reasons why you have not been getting better, despite your efforts. https://www.p2sportscare.com/

Recently I was interviewed by Brandon and Raul from the Strength Rehab Podcast. They were a pleasure to talk to, they had great questions and flow throughout the interview.  I'd highly suggest listening to what they are doing on their show Sebastian Itune Strength Rehab Podcast   Access Sebastian's 5 Step Patient Care Workshop Series Here Cody Dimak's S&C/ Loading Workshops" Lower Upper

Michael Shacklock, Physiotherapist, has been a guest on the show before. In episode 91, you would have experienced him for the first time and have probably heard a lot about him since (if you're a frequent listener). I've learned a lot from this man and I hope you will as well. He travels the world teaching other clinicians to effectively manage patient pathology with a neurodynamic aspect. Does motion provoke the person's symptoms?  Does your sciatica patient have pain only with walking? Or may walking is fine, but returning to full sprinting has been troublesome? Or that patient with arm numbness only after pitching for 2 innings? These cases often times have a neurodynamic aspect, but how would you know? Michael is here to guide us the way. Never fear. https://www.neurodynamicsolutions.com https://www.instagram.com/neurodynamics/   Access Sebastian's 5 Step Patient Care Workshop Series Here Cody Dimak's S&C/ Loading Workshops" Lower Upper

My intern Mike Velesco has some great questions. I thought you all would benefit from hearing the Q and A. This will be a multi part series no doubt.   Access Sebastian's 5 Step Patient Care Workshop Series Here Cody Dimak's S&C/ Loading Workshops" Lower Upper

I was interviewed on the Kokoro Movement Podcast recently and decided to share the audio with all of you. Talking with Jesse is always a great time. I'd love to say we have a focused topic but as conversations go, we jumped around. Take a listen to the Kokoro Movement Podcast, found on all major podcast players.

This is the audio version of a webinar I put on for Doc who wanted some organization to their treatment plans. I use this thinking process to better organize my REASONS for suggesting certain treatments and exercises to patients when I do. I think this is one of my only original ideas.   Watch the video version here: https://www.p2sportscare.com/5-step-webinar/

Recorded 3-21-20 at the beginning of the "stay at home" mandates in California, I decided to share some of my brainstorming about the future. What's up with telemedicine for low back, neck, shoulder, and hip complaints... as well as other musculoskeletal conditions?

Guido Van Ryssegem has been on the podcast before (#122) where we discussed his Attractor State concept with Movement Variability. Today I wanted to have him on air to demonstrate how we can apply his Attractor State principles (influenced by Janda) in athletes with shoulder pain. You can find Guido's work here http://www.kineticintegrations.com/ If you'd like to attend my workshop, here are the details: https://www.p2sportscare.com/doctor-workshop/

Recently I was schooled by an intern. Here are the cases that we were working on. See how teaching the hip hinge is dependant upon each person and what type of condition we are working with. Enjoy!

In this podcast session, I'll be covering some of the evolutions I'll be adding to my practice this coming year. I don't expect all of them to work as planned, but I'm willing to give them a shot. I share these thoughts to give you all something to think about as you build your practice to help more people towards independence.   Here are some of the topics:   - Cash vs insurance   - Exam rates   - Solo verse associate experience    - Finding new patients vs. retention of old ones/ base of practice   - Pain verse wellness model + sustainable training   - Cold vs warm leads  

I've had a few patients over the last year I wish I had made this for as they were starting care. The reason being is that being afraid of certain movements (knowingly or not) can create certain types of pain. Establishing a clear line of communication is helpful to get these patients to their goals. Communication is needed with all relationships but in my experience, these types of cases require a little more trust-building. Teamwork!

Mike Carhart, from Anytime Fitness, reached out to me to discuss the WHY of fitness training. Diving into the minds of those who train, and seek care, is always a great topic for me so... I said yes. Enjoy!

In this podcast session, I cover some interesting patient case studies over the last few months. #1 Foot pain in a soccer player #2 Upper trap tightness  #3 Successful implementation of a strength training program Listen in as a brainstorm how I could have done better and what I did well.  

PART 2: Grant Elliot from @rehabfix on Instagram was on the show this week. Although we did not have an exact adjacent, in our monthly conversation we tend to chat about social media for chiropractors, business practices, treatment and communication with social media followers. This conversation was no different, between the ebb and flow of BSing we hit on these topics. This is another two-part series. Hint: At the very end of part II we come back on to hit on Grant's online consult system.

Sara Van Dyke is a new Chiropractic school graduate. She interned within my office for 6-7 months. I wanted to have a meeting with her to brainstorm some ideas of what she could be doing at this time to start her practice. Hopefully this helps you in remembering how it was to exit school or assists you in getting your practice going. We cover insurances, new patients and website creation.  

Touchpoints are useful in helping patients feel better and I'm not referencing manual therapies. Patients need to know that you're the one who can help them. Many times on the first or second interactions they are not ready to accept your help. It may be the 10th or 20th interaction. Today I'll unveil some way we create touchpoints in our new patient encounters.

Be aware this episode is not a useful one for lay public. For clinicians, it will be gold. Sam Collins from HJ Ross Billing and Coding shares many helpful tips about modern health insurance billing/ coding for chiropractors. I went to his in-person workshop a few months ago and was blown away by how much useful information I didn't know about insurance. This is Part 1 of 2.

One method I use to make more personal touchpoints with possible new patients (people on the fence) are free audios about the problems they mention on the phone or email. These audios cover many of the common questions people have before they book the first exam. Basically they want to know if I can help and how what I am doing for them is different that things they may have tried... this audio cover it. Take a listen and see if this method something that can help you in your practice.
