My New Normal
S1E5 | Dr. Kelly Starrett - Optimizing Your Life Injured or Not and the Biopsychosocial Model
On Episode 5 I sit down with my friend and mentor Dr. Kelly Starrett to learn about dialing in very specific things that will help you where ever you are on the spectrum of human, adaptive, able bodies, injuried, old, young etc. Kelly also keenly discusses the biopsychosocial model of physical therapy and how it is revolutionizing how we take care of ourselves. Listen, apply to your life, and pay it forward.
Here are topics covered on the show
