Redefining Movement

159 | Combining yoga and physical therapy | with Kristin Williams


Listen Later

Kristin Williams and I are both physical therapists which means that our approach to teaching yoga is quite different. Kristin actually got into yoga because she had so many PT patients coming in injured from yoga and decided that she needed to learn more about it. 

In today’s podcast we talk about how modern work and life can make people pretty rounded in the spine and how the answer to many aches and pains is thoracic extension.

Plus, Kristin answers your PT questions including:

  • What is the best exercise for scoliosis in the spine?
  • What should you do about pain in feet and the peroneal tendon during and after running?
  • What is the best way to help with tight hip muscles?
  • Do PTs welcome clients without referrals or when things aren't necessarily ‘wrong’?
  • Do you have any tips for a winged scapula?
  • Is whiplash recovery possible after 20 years?
