Kye went on a trip to Portland for some counterstrain and of course we had to talk about it and discuss the process of getting better movement and getting people out of pain 

We have mixed feelings about the word "healing"  More specifically how people are using that word as a cop out or crutch. 

In this episode, Noah and Kye have a few things to say about mobility and flexibility when it comes to exercise as well as mental health  We bring you a reel from Dr. Aaron Kubal, where he talks about a different approach on stretching and mobilization exercises

In this episode, Noah and I watched a Instagram Reel with some shocking statistics around walking. Now we were a bit skeptical at first but then we researched it and wow!  We suggest to find certain activities that increase your heart rate and encourage movement, it does not necessarily have to be walking. We state this in the episode, as walking could not be beneficial to some people 

Yes, we are talking about genetics again but only because we believe that these diagnosis are more harmful than good.
