  • We’ve removed ourselves from nature, we’re terrified of pain, and we have all these ways to protect ourselves. Protecting ourselves not an option. Give the pain some space.
  • When we injure something, we limp. Then the limp becomes a pattern. We would teach our patients to walk through the limp, don’t let the limp take over.

If we can maintain the health and movement that we have today, for the rest of our lives, that is a home run.
