Mark is a certified athletic therapist, registered massage therapy and small business owner in rural Nova Scotia. Mark and I discuss the difference between Athletic Therapy and Massage Therapy. How he builds a treatment program for his clients. That the site of pain doesn't necessarily indicate the source of pain. How an Athletic Therapist can build you a injury prevention program. How he continues to build his skills as a therapist to help his clients and why you should seek out the right therapist that meets your specific goals.

Before you begin this podcast remember neither Natalie or I are medical doctors. She is telling her story of how this surgery impacted her life. Always discuss your medical options with your doctor before taking outside medical advice. Natalie shares with us her personal journey before and after her gastric sleeve surgery. We talk about her struggles with weight gain and how her medical conditions impacted her overall health. We also touch on some of our own opinions on mental health and dieting misconceptions. I hope you enjoy this journey with Natalie.

Welcome to my very first Episode of Memento Sanitas. This podcast touches on some of the life experiences of an Athletic Therapist. If you played, watched or coached sporting events you've likely seen an athletic therapist running onto the field of play to help an injured athlete. We are the ones taping, bandaging and stretching athletes before and after games. ATs are normally the first ones at the game and the last ones to leave. As you might be able to guess from listening to this podcast Kaleigh and I both take great pride in what we do but that doesn't mean our lives as athletic therapists hasn't had its challenges. We discuss how to create a work life balance, what red flags to watch for with some conditions and what our work has taught us. I hope you enjoy this episode and I apologize for the clicking in the background we had a puppy that just couldn't settle :) Hope you stick around for the next one. Take care.
