Myth-busting Arthritis, Hip Replacements, Knee Replacements in Athletes and More (Surgeon HJ Luks)

5% of the US population will have a total hip replacement by age 80 and an additional 10% will have a total knee replacement. Those are big numbers that influence both athletes and non-athletes alike and creates natural curiosity on a number of fronts: Is it inevitable? Are there things we can do to reduce our odds? How quickly should we move forward when experiencing pain? How active can we be post-surgery? Today we’re fortunate to have orthopedic surgeon Dr. HJ Luks joining us to discuss these questions and more. He’s the author of Longevity, Simplified, is a great follow on Twitter, and while I’ve known hundreds of surgeons over my years as a physical therapist, Luks brings a fresh, new, myth-busting perspective that I’m certain will open your eyes to new options you’d not previously considered.Info re earning your health & wellness coaching certification, annual Rocky Mountain Coaching Retreat & Symposium & more via https://www.catalystcoachinginstitute.com/ Best-in-class coaching for Employers, EAPs & wellness providers https://catalystcoaching360.com/Tap into the home of the (freely available) Not Done Yet! articles on unlocking life's 2nd half here.YouTube Coaching Channel https://www.youtube.com/c/CoachingChannelContact us: [email protected]: @Catalyst2ThriveWebsite: CatalystCoaching360.comIf you are a current or future health & wellness coach, please check out our Health & Wellness Coaching Community on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/278207545599218.  This is a wonderful group if you are looking for encouragement, ideas, resources and more.
