Measuring Functional Progression During Stem Cell Therapy
In this episode, we have Dr. Zachary Weaks joining us to talk functional movement and stem cell therapy.
We are very excited to have Dr. Weaks working on regenerating tissue and increasing function. KAMS gives his clinic a measuring system to track functional change over time and differentiate what is benefiting his patients the most.
We will have to keep up with Dr. Weaks for the next couple of months and get him back on to tell us more about the results he is seeing and the biggest changes in his patients’ lives.
Blood Flow Restriction: Healing and Function
We are joined by Dr. Ed Le Cara to talk about Blood Flow Restriction training! This is a training/rehab technique that allows the trainer or practitioner to increase strength, performance, and function at a more rapid pace. BFR also allows you to recreate heavy load just using light bands.
We will begin using Kinetisense to measure the overall functional changes that BFR has on the body. Dr. Ed explains that just because one extremity is occluded, it does not mean that extremity is the only thing benefiting from BFR training. Now, we can use Kinetisense to measure what specifically is benefiting the patient the most and what we need to recreate for each individual.
Assessing Movement in the WNBA
Dr. Davis McAlister is back and this time he is talking about his time spent with the Dallas Wings of the WNBA.
We talk about the utilization of Kinetisense technology, assessing specific movements that different players must perform, teachable moments, and how Kinetisense can be used for educational purposes.
Assessing explosive, sport-specific movements in all three planes of motion allows the practitioner to become a movement scientist and break down the biomechanical needs of specific athletes and people. We don’t all function the same, but we should function the best we can.
Implementing Technology into Your Business
Dr. Jay Greenstein, CEO of KaizoHealth, talks about implementing different technologies to help expand the walls of your business. We talk about how Dr. Jay is implementing 5 Kinetisense units into his clinic.
These technologies are not meant to take the place of the practitioner, but to make the practitioners’ exam and information gathered more accurate and objective. Most people visually assess movement, but we know this can be biased.
We also talk about the chiropractic mission and give an example of taking Kinetisense out into the community. Our goal as practitioners is to help people get better and improve their lives. If we continue to invest in our education and data collection processes, we will be able to continue to advance as a profession.
Spinal Health
In this episode, Dr. K, the creator of IntelliRoll, joins us to talk about spinal health, rolling and the science behind it, and why the intricate shape of the IntelliRoll can help reach different areas for mobilization.
Pairing IntelliRoll with Kinetisense allows clients and patients to see the change the roller is making in their bodies. That could be a functional change that is noted during movement or postural change that shows immediate effects of rolling.
Movement Analysis for CrossFit
KAMSX Athlete and 2nd place finisher of the 2019 CrossFit Games, Dr. Patrick Vellner, joins us to talk about assessment of movement from his unique perspective as a top 2 finisher, and soon to be Doctor of Chiropractic.
Pat talks about the necessity of strong compensatory patterns for pro-CrossFitters, his past, and he makes things a little more interesting with Alex’s KAMSX challenge by adding a WOD. We also talk about the importance of movement assessment of different levels of athletes.
Measuring Functional Fatigue
KinetiKoach Alex Graham, CES, joins us to explain what functional fatigue is, how we can measure it, and how we can apply it to ourselves and athletes.
Functional fatigue is not a theory that is specific to athletes. This is something that should be tracked in everyone. If you get to a certain point where you can’t do basic functional movements well (but you normally can) you may be experiencing functional fatigue. Alex breaks this down for us and helps us to understand the theory a little better.
The Oxygen Advantage
In this episode, author Patrick McKeown joins us and talks about how breathing affects tissue health, athletic performance, asthma, and overall health.
Patrick is the author of Oxygen Advantage and speaks all over the world about changing our breathing habits to improve our health.
