The Aging Athlete, #4 with Grant Smith, DPT (Doctor of Physical Therapy, Osteopractor, Manual Therapist)
Description
We are all aging from the time we are born, but we can keep moving for life with self-care as well as learning to look for the right kind of help. Join me on this interview with a Doctor of Physical Therapy, Osteopractor, and a Certified Dry Needling Specialist to learn from his perspective - having been a collegiate athlete and now practitioner in the north Atlanta area -what options you have to keep you moving and why you need to stay moving. Dr. Smith talks about what you can expect from a manual therapist (and what makes him different from a traditional physical therapist), the insurance game, things to consider with aging bones and muscles, recovery, and what you can expect from someone with his training.
And yes, I am proud to be his momma. <3 We didn't talk about this on the podcast but maybe another episode another time! There's plenty more to talk about here.......
