Background from texasbodyclinic.com.
Dr. Neill looks for patients who want to work with him as a team. He wants you doing things for yourself between visits, not just lying on the table.
He looks at the whole body, because the spot that hurts often isn’t where the problem starts, and he explains the why behind each exercise he sends home.
Summary written by Top Providers from his Episode 15 interview.
In his words
Verbatim from his Episode 15 interview.
You have to look out for yourself, and in doing so, you have to find someone who's willing to have a relationship with you that will work collaboratively with you to get you where you want to go.Dr. Edward Neill, Episode 15
So just simply thinking that working on one muscle or one area that's problematic is going to resolve the problem is not realistic for how our body in fact works. And so we have to look at the entire person.Dr. Edward Neill, Episode 15
You might actually increase the font size that your computer is in so that you can see more so you don't have the necessity to have that forward head posture.Dr. Edward Neill, Episode 15
When patients understand what's going on and you educate them, they're incentivized to actually adhere to doing the exercise because they understand why, what it's doing for them.Dr. Edward Neill, Episode 15
Not all providers are the same. And just because you did chiropractic or just because you did PT doesn't mean it failed you. It just means you haven't found the right person to work with.Dr. Edward Neill, Episode 15
Clips
Under a minute each, cut straight from the interview.
ShortsWhy where it hurts isn't always the problem
The body works in chains, so pain can show up away from where it starts.
ShortsDesk job neck pain? Check your screen first
Glasses, a bigger font and a monitor at eye level for forward head posture.
ShortsHow dry needling differs from acupuncture
The difference in approach and how deep the needle goes.
ShortsWhy the work between visits matters so much
One visit can't undo the rest of the week, so he teaches you what to do at home.
