Kartal joins us to share his process through a grueling 3-4 years of recovery from a rapidly growing pituitary tumor.

He explains:

-the start

-the progression

-the multiple doctors visits where the tumor was missed or not visualized

-brain surgery

-all of the medications

-chemotherapy

-having to relearn to walk 2 different times,

and so much more.

I also want to say I did my best to keep it light hearted so that we could get through the podcast. This was very emotional and is talking about how health issues like this make you see life and family completely differently.

Thank you Kartal for sharing your story with us.

If you have progressing neurological symptoms, get to a doctor ASAP and get it taken care of.

On this episode, I have one of my athletes join who has been working through the Oxygen Advantage breathing for athletes process.

When he first started, Alex was only able to hold his breath for 17 seconds. Now, he is over 150 seconds.

Imagine what that does for a swimmer in the water. They don't require breaths as much, so they can continue to focus on form and fluidity.

Now, apply that to any cardiovascular sport. More oxygen to your muscles. Less unnecessary breaths. Increased performance.

Reach out via email if this is something you are looking to do for yourself or another athlete!

These episodes will pop-up occasionally as Dr. Brennan and I get onto a subject (as we walk in between patients) and feel it is necessary to share with the public!

Here's a hot topic (even though it should not be and we should always be looking for the least-invasive route) surgery prevention.

This is something we have been very successful with at the clinic.

Not everyone can prevent a surgery, but a lot of our patients have been able to.

Ex: Knee replacement is scheduled, bad MRI (including meniscus tearing, osteophyte formation, ligament damage and "degeneration") and a runner. After 3 months (not consistent treatment, we require people to work on themselves at home) she was able to run a 50k trail race with 0 pain....

That was 3 years ago. Still no pain running multiple times a week.

3rd place mixed doubles finisher from Hyrox worlds, top 10 ultra 50k-100k finisher from 2016-2020 and Kinetic Centre Athlete, Mark Bottenhorn, joins us to talk about the mental and physical side of being an endurance athlete.

Mark and I sit down to discuss the importance of mental health while pushing your body to the physical limits.

Tune in to hear him overcome injury to be successful in Hyrox, on the soccer field and in ultra running!

On this episode I interview Justin from Kuribl Klinical about their high quality CBD products.

This is a brand we trust in the clinic for our patients.

Kuribl grows, extracts and produces their hemp CBD products on their own farm.

If you are looking for more information about CBD, tune in!

Dr. Brennan Riche from Kinetic Centre Dallas specializes in utilizing the technology Kinetisense to measure barbell athletes and program functional strength progressions for patients.

Dr. Brennan is a former D1 powerlifter for the Rajun Cajuns!

He took his knowledge and experience with strength and progressed it into a stronger understanding of functional movement patterns as a functional movement chiropractor.

Dr. Brennan helped open Kinetic Centre Dallas and has utilized Kinetisense in barbell analysis and patient care for over 4 years.

CEO of Xero Shoes Steven Sashen joins us to talk about the importance of how minimalist shoes biomechanically help us move through our day and help athletes improve their gait. 

I also share stories of patients who have been successful running and working in minimalist shoes, despite their hesitancy to move away from their "comfortable" padded shoes. 

This was a fun episode. We greatly believe in Xero, and we encourage our patients to wear them. 

We have also become an affiliate of Xero so you can find them and get the one that helps you move the best at any Kinetic Centre! Ask your doctor or practitioner which Xero would be best for you.

This is a solo 3 episode series where I break down different movement theories, how they apply to Kinetisense, and how different patients have improved with the combination.

Episode 1 is the joint by joint approach. This talks about how segments of joints that lack stability will cause lack of motion in other areas...and vise-versa.

I talk about patients with neck injuries, low back and hip injuries, and how they correlate to objective 3D analysis with Kinetisense. There is focus on ankles, thoracic spine, cervical spine, lumbar spine, hips, knees and more!

Episode 2 will cover the fascial planes and how Kinetisense can help you identify which lines are the primary area of dysfunction.

Episode 3 will take all of this information and combine it into some advanced rehab with kettlebells and barbell work. I will share some cool stories of patients progressing from feeling like they won't ever be able to move again after surgery, to lifting a barbell.

In this episode, Dr. Ryan and I talk about the different aspects of technology in healthcare. I speak about the utilization in care, while Ryan talks about helping business grow.

We also get into the T-Tool and how Dr. DeBell came to the current theories that he calls his own.

If you have not checked out the Movement Fix Podast, you are missing out. This is something that I listened to as a student...it helped me keep my brain focused on movement, rather than theory.

In this episode, we are joined by midwife Margie Wallis from Frisco Birth Center. Margie focuses on pairing with multiple practitioners during the process of pregnancy. 

Margie and I have worked together on improving the movement patterns of pregnant women and utilizing Kinetisense to track the change. 

We talk about some of the movements that become reduced and the changes of data.
