So much has happened over the past couple weeks concerning my shoulder journey. I had a session with an advanced Vortex Healing energy therapist, Nathan Whiteside, who worked on the subtle energies (divine webbing, energy bodies, etc) of my shoulder. I am familiar with this work, because I actually trained it (not to as accomplished a level as Nathan!) perhaps 10 years back. On a completely different wave length, I was in a professional training this past weekend at UCSF in the Orthopedics & Physical Therapy center, where we learned how to use Myofascial Decompression. Think Chinese Medicine Cupping along areas of fascial restriction. Lots of bruising and painful practicing involved. The results were pretty good though, and my shoulder got some deep work by Dr DaPraddo, the instructor. [Read more…]
Chi Running
Given my current shoulder limitations, I am not currently swimming. Nor am I as often in the gym. Hey, it is summer afterall, and I want to be outside. Not to mention the fact that half the things in there I can’t safely do right now! So what about walking or running? [Read more…]
Go Giants!
I was fortunate to recently attend the SF Giants first annual Sports Conference at AT&T Park! In attendance with me were my colleagues and partners in crime Chiropractor Derik Anderson of San Rafael, and PT Ann Ongerth. We spent two jam-packed days learning about overhead sports, rehab and other nerdy things that doctors love to talk about, from the best minds in the field. I believe I was one of only three chiropractors in a sea of hundreds of physical therapists and athletic trainers! I learned a lot and am jazzed to work with more athletes as a consequence. Perhaps one of the most exciting things for me was that our break-out sessions were in the home dugout and training rooms! I’m not a big base ball fan, but it was still pretty exciting to be that close to the 2014 World Series winners!
