“Neck Pain & Headaches” Workshop (Full Video Replay + Worksheet)

On 4/22/21, I hosted a live “Neck Pain & Headaches” Workshop via Zoom, where I covered a wide range of information in detail.

The two main focuses of the workshop were as follows:

First, helping people understand how to figure out the root cause of their neck pain and headaches.

Second, once we know the cause of the pain, we focused our attention on understanding the best treatment options to get rid of the pain for good.

Rotator Cuff Strength Progression (for “Tendinosis” and Shoulder Pain)

In several previous blog posts and videos about shoulder pain and rotator cuff issues (especially rotator cuff “tendinosis”), I’ve talked about how to heal the rotator cuff with things like eccentric strengthening.

How to Diagnose & Treat Horizontal Canal Vertigo (BPPV)

How to Diagnose & Treat Horizontal Canal Vertigo (BPPV)

Horizontal canal BPPV can be much more difficult to diagnose and treat than posterior canal BPPV, and it’s also much less common (which is great!).

In the second video, I’ll then explain how to treat horizontal canal BPPV using the Gufoni Maneuver.
