Welcome back to Part 2 with Dr. Parker Hewes, talking about Lifelong Youth: The Simple Path to a Long and Youthful Life. We are diving in right where we left off on Tuesday, so if you haven’t listened yet, go back and listen to that episode first.

Parker is a dynamic chiropractor and life enthusiast. His dream is to help transform Jackson into a Blue Zone of the longest living, healthiest, and happiest people on the planet. He notes that Jackson is already well on its way to this achievement, and is excited to be joining such a wonderful community. In order to stay happy and healthy himself, Parker is a dabbler, a lifelong student, and a goofball. Name any sport, yard game, or outdoor activity, and he’d be ready to play. Got a recommendation for a book, podcast, or blog? He’ll be the first to give it a look. And if you see someone walking barefoot and dancing with no music, it’s probably Parker. Dr. Parker has also written a book called “Lifelong Youth: The Simple Path to a Long and Youthful Life.” He will use this book as an educational tool for patients and community members to support their health journey. We are excited for our community to get to know him and his talent, energy, and beautiful caring spirit.

Today we talk to Hayden Hilke, Doctor of Physical Therapy and owner of Peak PT. We jump back in to concussions, why we should do pre-concussion testing and who should have it – kids who downhill ski, play hockey and football for sure, but it would be a good idea for all the mountain bikers out there. We talk about Watershed Jackson, the non-profit working with concussion testing in our valley, as well as her new venture, Kilter PT and Sports Performance which will be going in to the new sports complex south of town.

Hayden Hilke graduated from Furman University in 1997 with a BA in Sociology. She then moved to Jackson, Wyoming for two years prior to returning to South Carolina, where she earned her MSR, PT degree in 2003 from the Medical University of South Carolina. She earned a transitional Doctorate in Physical Therapy degree in 2009 from AT Still University in Arizona. After working in various patient settings in and out of Jackson, she opened Peak Physical Therapy, an outpatient orthopedic physical therapy clinic, in Wilson, WY. Due to her own personal experience with a back injury, and seeing a lack of resources and accessibility in Jackson, she started Watershed Jackson, a non-profit, that benefits athletes with traumatic brain and spinal cord injury. Since then, she has attended numerous courses and seminars, which specialize in progressive education and rehabilitation in current concussion management. She has partnered with several local youth and adult sport teams to help provide optimal pre- and post-concussion screening and rehabilitation. Through both her business and her non-profit, Hayden has helped educate the Jackson community on traumatic brain management, and worked to foster a more accessible local environment.

On today’s episode of Health in the Hole, we are talking about peeing when you sneeze, pain during sex, leaking after prostate surgery, all kinds of pelvic floor dysfunction that is so much more common than we might think and so often not talked about. Our guest is Cossette Burnham, Doctor of Physical Therapy and Pelvic Floor Specialist. Pelvic floor dysfunction affects men and women. It isn’t just related to pregnancy. Some sports can actually be really hard on pelvic floors. And it’s not always a weak pelvic floor that is the problem, often we are too tight throughout our pelvic floor and aren’t any good at relaxing it. That sounds like a possibility here in Jackson, right?

Cossette is one of my favorite people. She is the reason I was able to stay working out at the gym throughout my second and third trimester of pregnancy. When I found out last week that our kid was breech, she worked with me through all the spinning baby techniques after I was absolutely overwhelmed looking through the Spinning Baby website and showed up for my appointment unsuccessfully fighting back tears. She is so incredibly caring and knowledgeable and has so much enthusiasm for getting you back to better health. I can’t say enough how much I recommend seeing her – or another pelvic floor specialist - if identify with anything we talk about today.

Those car seat carriers aren’t just obnoxiously heavy, they may interfere with your infant’s sensory development, according to our guest today.  The child is getting auditory input, but with the carrier often covered they aren’t getting the matching visual input, and because they are staying on the same almost horizontal plane, they are missing vestibular input.  Does keeping your kid in a bucket correspond with the increasing numbers of developmental issues in children? Lisa Robertson, a pediatric occupational therapist, believes so, and isn’t afraid to get on a soapbox about it.  

Lisa Robertson, OTR/L graduated from the University of New Hampshire with a bachelors of science in Occupational Therapy in 1995. She worked in several areas of OT including home health, skilled nursing and hand therapy before focusing on pediatrics as her primary scope of practice. She is a homeschooling mom of twin 7 year old boys, enjoys all activities outdoors, as well as creating with fabric and clay indoors. She maintains and runs a small pediatric occupational therapy clinic in town.
