Featuring: Davis McAlister, DC

EPISODE SUMMARY


In today's episode, we're going to explore a fascinating topic that has gained significant attention in recent years. Today's training is titled: "Creating a Pre-habilitation Program with Dr. Davis McAlister." Whether you're an athlete, a fitness enthusiast, or someone preparing to go under the knife, pre-habilitation is a proactive approach that can help optimize your physical and mental well-being before an event or sport. This subject is one that really hits home for me...as I sit here prepping to leave for a "world series" baseball tournament with my 9 year old and his team. Even at such a young age, we are constantly monitoring our kids to make sure they are getting proper rest, nutrition, hydration so that they can perform at their best and reach their full potential as an athlete at every stage as they grow. I'm fortunate to have a husband that's well-versed in athletic performance and recovery, but for most parents, that's simply not the case. So what do they do?

In the world of sports medicine, we talk so much about how to treat injuries after they occur, but you don't hear a lot about how to prevent them in the first place. And while we can't 100% always prevent injuries in athletes, what we can do is better prepare our athletic patients for competition by implementing a pre-habilitation program that is customized to the unique needs of their sport and current level of fitness.
