Dr. Adriaan Louw returns to Pain Reframed! We have an episode that might bring you down at first… but then it will bring you back up and deliver incredible hope at the end! The first part of our episode is a truthful, real look at what is truly going on in our industry. It's a challenge and a call to action. But there is hope! There is a reason to be excited!

Adriaan, Tim, and Jeff have a powerful and intense conversation that delivers a great message of doing the small things well, right now. Do that one thing you can do right now and do it consistently. Then get others to do the same. That small change will compound into something significantly greater across the industry. Do the basics well, and excellence will follow.

It's RIGHT around the corner! March 8-10, 2019 in Denver, Colorado, the Align Conference will be taking place, focusing on movement and pain.
