![[REHAB: EDUCATION AND OPTIMISM]
There was a recent study that talked about more effective ways to manage soft tissue injuries. Of the nine factors they talk about Education and Optimism were two that stuck to me. The mental and human aspect of injury is finally being acknowledged. This plays such an important role in a rehab process after an injury. If we educate, empower and give realistic outlooks for our patients, they become in control. They become less dependent on us.. wait what? Don’t we want them to be dependent on us, that’s what we do, make people feel and move better. Of course we want to be and should be an integral part of helping a person through this process but when they feel empowered and in control of their situation, the optimism they achieve from the knowledge they’ve gained from us gives them an enhanced opportunity for a successful outcome. Optimism enhances confidence, compliance and motivation, so let’s keep that ball rolling! We want to be healing catalysts, not dictating how it should be done. We are another tool for our patients to use to mentally and physically regain their lives and full function!

I have brought Todd on to give me treatment 2x per week to address my past injuries, current limitations and prevent future injuries. The treatment includes instrument assisted scraping, cupping, myofascial release and various strengthening and mobility work. He has also programmed daily tissue activation routines to address what I need before taking big weights. I am starting to feel like myself again and am excited to get healthier through the work with Todd, even at 39 years old.

Rio Grande Track and Field
My senior year of track I developed complications with my sciatic nerve and it had a big effect on my running. Todd helped me rehab; successfully getting me healthy in time for the most important time of my season. He was my athletic trainer for volleyball, basketball, and track. Throughout the years he helped me and my teammates have healthy and successful seasons. Without his knowledge and care as an Athletic Trainer, I probably would not have been able to complete at the collegiate level today. I currently run track at the University of Rio Grande and even today I continue to utilize the stretches, lifts, and rehabbing Todd showed me my senior year of high school. He is not only a great Athletic Trainer but also a great mentor and role model to those around him.
Mike Diamond
Powerlifter
I had first come to Todd when I was visiting Old School Gym and he had been kind enough to work with me on a nagging glute issue stemming from a powerlifting meet a few months prior. I had sought out Chiropractic help, Massage therapy and even some self-care via YouTube. I couldn't seem to get it cleared up or figure out the exact source of the issue. When I explained this to Todd he knew exactly what it was. Within 5 minutes he had worked on my piriformis and the issue vanished almost immediately. Todd is by far the person I trust most to go to with any injury that I may encounter, he has helped me with glute issues, elbow issues and a handful of others via his content. He can point you straight to the problem and show you exactly how to fix it.
Brooks Holloway
Powerlifter
I developed a sharp pain in my glute about a month out from the IVB Push/Pull powerlifting meet. Todd helped me relieve a lot of that pain through mobility work and get me back on track. I was able to compete using a conventional stance in my deadlift, which was a first for me and set a new competition PR. I am now pushing toward a 500 pull and 500 squat after just turning 35 years of age and feeling stronger than ever thanks to guys like Todd.
