I didn’t know much, if anything, about CranioSacral Therapy (CST) before talking to Tracy Lin. Tracy’s enthusiasm for CST is contagious, and it shows how much there is still to learn about brain injury. As a physiotherapist Tracy is always searching for ways to help her patients and decided to learn more about and become certified in CST at the Upledger Institute. The Upledger Institute has “facilitated manual therapy treatment programs for 11 former professional football players from the NFL and Canadian Football league suffering from concussions and post-concussion syndrome.”You can find Tracy online at www.iahp.com/TracyLinPT or like her colleague and former guest Corey, yay email her to ask about concussions at [email protected] Williams Foundation: https://youtu.be/iOZGsSxZbC0https://youtu.be/jAAsrWLnvOo

I haven’t chatted with Katie in a while - although we follow each other on social media. We catch up in this podcast; hear about her new physiotherapy clinic and her PhD research! Although I’ve never researched or done physio with Katie, her energy, enthusiasm and optimism/positivity remind me very much of Jen Shears, the physiotherapist - and friend! - to whom I give heaps of credit for my rehabilitation journey!

There's no end, no beginning.In conclusion, thank you so much for your support!
