Breathing - Is there more to it? with Kento Kamiyama
Your back hurts? We look at breathing. You feel stressed? We look at breathing. Poor digestion? We look at breathing. Breathing extends into so many realms of health it needs to be talked about thoroughly and often. Enter Kento Kamiyama. Kento knows so much stuff! He knows about breathing, he knows about exercising, he knows about breathing while exercising, he knows anatomy, he knows how to drive a manual transmission, he knows kinesiology, and the list goes on. Kento will be teaching us all about the good the bad and the ugly when it comes to breathing. Kento will kindly answer the following on FiRE5: 1. Why should you practice breathing? 2. I used to not think about breathing, why should I start now? 3. Can breathing help my core? 4. Breathing can help my flexibility…what? 5. How can I integrate it into strength training? Kento is a wealth of knowledge and also a great teacher and communicator. Kento and I met a while back when I was with Peter D'Aquino and he said "You gotta meet this guy Kento, he's great!" Sure enough, he was. It's always nice to meet someone who shares your passion and compliments your knowledge.

Protecting You & Your Practice: COVID-19 with Stephanie Rodin, Esq.
Things are tough right now for small business owners, but imagine fighting a legal battle on top of it? At this time I think everyone has a sense of the concepts of risk vs reward and vulnerability. No one understands the vulnerabilities that health care providers can face and how to mitigate them better than Stephanie Rodin, Esq. Right or wrong my guess is there are going to be lawsuits against places of business if people believe they contracted COVID19 at their facility. Listen in on our chat and even have a chance to ask Stephanie a question that may help all of us out! Stephanie will kindly answer the following on FiRE5: 1. What do you find most challenging for your clients when they open up their practice? 2. Has Covid-19 impacted the way that your client's are providing treatment to their patients? 3. What can practitioners do to protect themselves against this new climate of patient care that we find ourselves in? 4. For practitioners who are just starting their career, are you finding any changes that they should be aware of?'' I didn't become a PT to learn about the legal side of healthcare, but once I opened up my own shop I had no choice. Enter Stephanie, who comes from a family of healthcare providers and knows that we all want to be able to practice our craft without having fear of leaving ourselves legally vulnerable down the road. After years of defending providers in alleged malpractice actions brought against them by prior patients, she has a real knack for explaining the "Why behind the What" and does it with patience and thoroughness. Getting the chance to ask her a question is a real gift!
