    Welcome back, friends! In this episode, I sat down with Joey Scambia and Rayce Houser, Co-Founders of Rehab Renaissance, to talk about how we can better rehab athletes with low back pain, especially those with bone stress injuries.  We get into imaging, nutritional, and workload considerations for this population, as well as Joey and Rayce's own tier-based system for returning these athletes to sport.  You're gonna want to take notes!

    77. Zak Gabor & Shelly Belk: Stuck and Burnt Out

    Hey friends! In this episode, I sit down with Clinical Athlete's very own Zak Gabor and his personal behavior coach Shelly Belk.  We go deep into the topic of burnout in high-achieving clinicians and how chronic stress and over-identifying with our professional roles can quietly keep us from taking healthy action. We talk about why so many of us tie our self-worth to productivity, struggle to set boundaries, and wait until we hit a breaking point to ask for help. Zak shares how working with Shelly has improved his mental health and how he shows up in his business and relationships. This conversation is a reminder to separate who you are from what you produce.  If you feel stuck this episode is for you!   Clinical Athlete FB Community Group: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/17xZrXzvcq/

    In this episode, I sit down with Kayla Fujimoto Epperson to talk about her journey and lessons learned working in pro tennis as a physical therapist.  I am personally inspired by Kayla and her mindset towards her career.  She's a "I will figure it out" kind of person.  She shares how her mind has changed on the utilization of breathwork.  We also get into the existential questions that come with working with elite athletes surrounding what to actually intervene on.  Definitely connect with Kayla if you're interested in getting into tennis world!    Clinical Athlete FB Community: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1AtraArCF2/

    74. Logan Kelly-Sullivan: Making Sense of Cartilage Injuries

    Welcome back, friends! In this episode, I sit down with Logan Kelly-Sullivan, Senior Performance Physical Therapist for the San Antonio Spurs.  Logan and I connected at the NBPTA networking event during Summer League this summer and I really enjoyed chatting with him (over a Dos Equis of course).  He mentioned he was studying cartilage injuries as part of his PhD and I knew I had to get him on here to share more about that!  We get into cartilage diagnosis, treatment decision making, load management and biologics, along with some other thoughts from Logan on career development.  Yall are in for a good one!   Clinical Athlete FB Community: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1D5aW17jxG/
