    Breathing - Is there more to it? with Kento Kamiyama

    Your back hurts? We look at breathing. You feel stressed? We look at breathing. Poor digestion? We look at breathing. Breathing extends into so many realms of health it needs to be talked about thoroughly and often. Enter Kento Kamiyama. Kento knows so much stuff! He knows about breathing, he knows about exercising, he knows about breathing while exercising, he knows anatomy, he knows how to drive a manual transmission, he knows kinesiology, and the list goes on.

Kento is a wealth of knowledge and also a great teacher and communicator. Kento and I met a while back when I was with Peter D'Aquino and he said "You gotta meet this guy Kento, he's great!" Sure enough, he was. It's always nice to meet someone who shares your passion and compliments your knowledge.

    Protecting You & Your Practice: COVID-19 with Stephanie Rodin, Esq.

    Things are tough right now for small business owners, but imagine fighting a legal battle on top of it? At this time I think everyone has a sense of the concepts of risk vs reward and vulnerability. No one understands the vulnerabilities that health care providers can face and how to mitigate them better than Stephanie Rodin, Esq. Right or wrong my guess is there are going to be lawsuits against places of business if people believe they contracted COVID19 at their facility. Listen in on our chat and even have a chance to ask Stephanie a question that may help all of us out! Stephanie will kindly answer the following on FiRE5: 1. What do you find most challenging for your clients when they open up their practice? 2. Has Covid-19 impacted the way that your client's are providing treatment to their patients? 3. What can practitioners do to protect themselves against this new climate of patient care that we find ourselves in? 4. For practitioners who are just starting their career, are you finding any changes that they should be aware of?'' I didn't become a PT to learn about the legal side of healthcare, but once I opened up my own shop I had no choice. Enter Stephanie, who comes from a family of healthcare providers and knows that we all want to be able to practice our craft without having fear of leaving ourselves legally vulnerable down the road. After years of defending providers in alleged malpractice actions brought against them by prior patients, she has a real knack for explaining the "Why behind the What" and does it with patience and thoroughness. Getting the chance to ask her a question is a real gift! 1:30 : Stephanie Rodin Esq. gives her bio 4:07 : Common pitfalls of people starting out, and Stephanie's advice on getting what you need when you begin your practice 6:11 : What is most challenging for clients when they open their practice 8:25 : When should people make the leap to making their practice official 11:10 : How COVID 19 has impacted how clinics treat their patients 15:05 : The legal vulnerabilities of Telehealth 19:00 : What changes Stephanie would like to see or keep in the healthcare system when things are back to "normal" 20:19 : What can practitioners do to protect themselves in this new climate of healthcare 28:13 : The changes that practitioners who are just starting their career should be aware of 31:48 : The gaps that Stephanie sees consistently in already established practices 37:00 : Closing remarks and where to find Stephanie and her newsletters

Paula Tursi is so knowledgeable when it comes to yoga that she can tell you the good, the bad, the old, the new and everything in-between.

    How to Reduce Pain from Toe to Head with Lev Borukhov

    Greetings Beautiful People! Most people (should) take about 10,000 steps each day. Each time the foot hits the ground the body reacts and it can have a positive or negative effect. The person that I know who explains that the best is Lev Borukhov and he can also put that into context with another thing that we do thousands of times a day - Breathing!

What limits someone from being able to heal? I knew about Lev before he knew about me. I was doing a quick assessment on a patient and she said "Oh - this is great! since my PT moved to Hawaii I haven't been able to find anybody good" so I asked what their name was and she told me it was Lev. Fast forward 2 weeks later and I'm assessing another patient and she also says: "Oh - this is great! since my PT moved to Hawaii I haven't been able to find anybody good" to which I say "Is his name Lev?" and she says "Oh my god - you know Lev!!!" and I say "Actually, No - but I hear he's really good" :) After that I tracked him down and a friendship was born.

    Is your PT working for or against you? Goal-setting with Richard Symister

    The psychological component of physical therapy is being considered more & more important so we asked one of the highest EQ'd PTs out there to help us out. Sometimes I think that people forget that the word "PHYSICAL" is before the word "Therapy" in our professional title, but that is understandable because in reality there isn't really a separation of mind & body which is something that Richard Symister understands better than most especially when it comes to Goal-Setting. Richard will kindly discuss the following on Fireside5: 1. Experience + Research + Listening = Positive Client Outcome 2. Short-term versus long-term goals 3. Keeping your client’s intrinsic motivators/incentives in mind 4. Scaffolding your treatment progression 5. Emotional blocks: Ego depletion, Performance anxiety, Shame Richard and I have known each other for a while. We were both taking the same course about 10 years ago and just gravitated towards each other. Since then we nerd out about manual therapy stuff, movement stuff, life stuff, business stuff ... all the stuffs! Richard has had a stellar career in PT and carved his niche early on with dancers & performers along with developing his love for Drumming Therapy + Sports Performance. He is a wise person and I welcome his advise on both the mind and the body. *apologies for the connection issues which caused me to cut off Richard at times - i deeply respect all words that come out of his mouth and would never intentionally obstruct :) 1:40 : Richard Symister introduces himself 3:49 : Richard shares more about his dance and drumming experiences 6:01 : Experience, research, and listening and the positive client outcomes that come from that 16:20 : Short term vs. long term goals 22:09 : How do you coach your clients while keeping their intrinsic motivators and incentives in mind and the importance of ego specific programs 25:26 : Steve gives answer on what he learned about himself over the course of the pandemic 28:53 : Scaffolding your treatment progression 34:44 :The emotional block of ego depletion 37:22 : Richards process in changing his and his clients health habits 42:09 : Richard opens up about his performance anxiety and shame 48:49 : Steve and Richard discuss how to be a good ally, where your intentions are at and white guilt 57:01 : Closing words from Richard Symister
