    61. Natasha Barnes: Challenging Chiropractic Norms

    On this episode, I sit down with Natasha Barnes, a chiropractor who specializes in working with climbing athletes. Natasha shares her journey from being an elite climber to navigating chiropractic school, where she was motivated to develop a more evidence-based, exercise-focused approach to rehab as an independent practitioner. We dive into how her treatment philosophy has evolved, the challenges of shifting patient expectations, and the unique considerations of working with climbers—especially around strength training and injury management. Natasha also talks about her transition to a fully remote practice, the power of communication in rehab, and why sometimes the best intervention is simply reassurance.   Clinical Athlete Community FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1BUtQPAyBT/
