https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/thebackdoctorspodcast/222_Sam_Visnic_-_Chronic_Pain.mp3

In this episode, Sam Visnic explains what chronic pain is and how he helps his clients to uniquely address their pain.

Visnic has spent his life studying the fundamental aspects of human health with a focus on movement and clinical massage therapy. In a world of specialists, surgical procedures, drugs and quick fix remedies, he’s committed to finding and developing strategies that help people stuck at the “gap”.

Sam has studied dozens of methodologies for uncovering the root cause of aches and pains, some of which include pain science, hands-on soft tissue massage techniques, myofascial release, and coaching movement.

Deciphering WHEN to use different techniques with different people and situations, along with integration
of movement is the key to long term success with Sam’s incredible track record. Understanding the various elements that contribute to conditions and the power of communication and education makes his Release Muscle Therapy program unique from other hands-on therapy approaches.

Episode 218 Matt Parks – CBD for Inflammation

https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/thebackdoctorspodcast/218_Matt_Parks_-_CBD_for_Inflammation.mp3

Matt Parks, Founder and CEO of One Less CBD discusses CBD and how it can help reduce inflammation that causes pain.

MATT PARKS
FOUNDER & CEO

During his decade as Vice President at Williams Medical Supply, Matt’s efforts grew the company from a regional to national supplier while maintaining a steadfast promise to ensure new patients can be serviced. Understanding that his success was a direct result of building long-term relationships, he was imbued with a great appreciation for small business. Also during his time in medical supplying, he observed the rise of the opiate epidemic, a problem he knew stemmed in part from a lack of quality options in chronic pain and inflammation treatment. These experiences united seamlessly guiding his decision to create One Less CBD.

https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/thebackdoctorspodcast/215_Dr._Dereck_Tenckhoff_-_Sciatica.mp3

Spine specialist, Dr. Derek Tenckhoff (pictured with Dr. Cox above) shares a story of an active young man who is sidelined with leg pain for a year.

Dr. Tenckhoff is a second generation chiropractor who has been involved in Chiropractic since he was born. He received his first adjustment from his father hours after being born. Growing up he competed in sports including: wrestling, judo, MMA, swimming, and baseball. Chiropractic adjustments helped to keep him healthy and at the top of his game. His passion for chiropractic began when he took more interest in his father’s career as a chiropractor. He observed how patients would come to his father after seeing multiple doctors and being told that surgery was their only option. However, these patients would give his father a chance, and would be healed, no longer needing surgery. He knew then that chiropractic was what he wanted to do. He received his Bachelors in Psychology from Chico State University and his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Southern California University of Health Sciences. He is a Cox Certified doctor.
