“My doctor sent me to another PT clinic”
This is a topic that I’ve been wanting to write about for quite some time…
…and just last weekend, I was again reminded that I need to finally get this message out.
Let me give you the scenario that inspired this blog before I dive into the message.
= = = = = =
Last weekend Stephanie and I were manning a booth at Valleyfest, when I noticed a previous patient of ours across the way.
Her name was Dee, and she was walking with a walker and not looking too good overall.
So I went over and asked Dee how she was doing.
As you can imagine, she told me not so good. She’s been having some trouble with her hips and back and is now relying heavily on her walker to get around.
I then mentioned to her that maybe it was something I could help her with, and do you know what she said to me…?
“I’m already doing physical therapy somewhere else.”
Back Pain & Sciatica: Is It a Bulging Disc or Degenerative Changes?
Bulging discs and degenerative changes are the 2 most common causes of lower back pain and sciatica that we see in the clinic. And one of the most common questions that I get is “How do I know if I have a bulging disc or some other degenerative type of pain?”
In this video, I’ll explain to you how to determine which of these 2 is causing your back and sciatica pain. And I’ll also explain how you need to adopt a different treatment approach depending on the type of pain you have.

Blueberry & Greens Smoothie
This time of year, there’s nothing better than a nice, cold smoothie packed full of good fat and a few greens for good measure.
Below is my favorite go-to smoothie recipe. If I’m going to want a little extra energy that day (say we’re going swimming at the beach) I’ll drink a pint of this after breakfast.
I hope you like it!
