Beyond Traditional Physical Therapy: Holistic Recovery & Injury Reduction with Dr. Shaun Astorga


Listen Later

Despite having a doctorate in clinical physical therapy, even Dr. Astorga hit a dead end with conventional medical approaches when he experienced a severe neck and head injury.

Instead of settling for possibly lifelong incapacitation, he found the help he needed from a movement researcher/therapist who helped him fully recover by shifting his understanding of how the body is designed to move.

As a result, he brought the work to his patients and then to other physical therapists, coaches, and personal trainers so that they could also help their clients restore movement freedom.

In this interview, Deb and Shaun talk about a variety of types of support that can make lasting change.

Dr Shaun Astorga has a clinical doctorate in physical therapy. He is the founder of AMP Performance Rehab which provides physical therapy care and sports medicine in Chester, NJ. He also has a mentorship program for personal trainers, coaches, and physical therapists.
