    I apologize for the misunderstanding. I stated that I wouldn't seek to treat those conditions and instead treat the muscoluskeletal complaints that kids come in with. Research for back pain is great, I was just trying to explain where some of the other claims come from (pretty limited research...

    My bad, I'll stop responding to this thread and start up another one over there at some point.

    Pain and numbness is a big enough reason to seek some sort of intervention! Couldn't hurt to video tape a couple of throws of your new habits vs your old habits and have the guys in form/technique check it out. I think there's a lot of overlap between throwing form and injuries, with follow...

    Did you notice any improvement in your play along with relief of symptoms? Or any other related symptom relief as your form improved? Less elbow/shoulder/back pain as well? I'm always curious on people's personal experience with their form impacting their play vs form impacting injuries.

    Thought we rewrote all the pages but must have missed a few. :wall: You should see what these pre-built websites say with all the default text! I actually started this thread for the free website audit so let me know if you find anything else weird on there! :thmbup: "Chiropractic care"...

    Was trying to paint a simple picture of what we do. Could have said physiotherapy, therapeutic modalities, therapeutic exercises, etc. Most chiropractors receive a board certification in Physiotherapy (and many states require that) along with additional certifications down the road.

    Appreciate the post! We're pretty evidence based and lean more towards a combination of chiropractic care and physical therapy. Long term results are always going to be the result of diligence with home exercises and self-care. Similar to Dentistry, you see a Dentist twice a year for cleanings...

    Follow up with your sports med guy at all? Keep doing any home exercises/care they gave you even after pain is gone. It's human nature to stop actively working at something once it's no longer causing pain.

    My wife got me a yellow camouflage Innova HeroPack backpack for Father's Day last year or the year before, I can't remember when it came out. It was a nice, thoughtful gift to get a backpack as a present and I'm actually quite pleasantly surprised with how well it has held up. It's a solid bag...

    I think we'll for sure be doing a warmup/cooldown video. Stretch your back out now and alternate heat and ice to act as a pump to get more circulation through there. Ice for 20 minutes, break for 20 minutes, heat for 20 minutes, break for 20 minutes. Repeat as necessary. Ice helps get rid of...

    It's our pleasure supporting disc golf, we'd love to see the sport keep growing! We're actually about a mile away from a middle school with a pretty challenging disc golf course so we're trying to put on some youth clinics with Alex every year too. Although, I was joking around with Alex that...

    That's one thing that's in the works for sure. The interesting thing in sports performance research is that there are so many opinions right now about what you should or shouldn't do before activity. I ran track in college and they would tell us not to do any static stretches before running. If...

    Wear that brace pretty much any time you're doing any repetitive motions with that arm. That means disc golfing, construction/power tool work, even typing can pull on those muscles. Fish oil/collagen supplements can help rebuild connective tissue as well. Something to think about if you don't...

    Yeah, he's an awesome dude and a lot of fun to work with! I give him huge props for balancing work, travel, disc golf, and family. It takes a ton of time and effort from him and his fiancee to juggle that many things at once. The girls just didn't want to decrease the discs' value on the...
