Why Everything You Were Taught About Movement Might Be Wrong with Dr. Yuji Suzuki

from ChiroShift · host ChiroShift Podcast

What if the way you were taught to think about movement is actually limiting your patients' ability to heal?Dr. Yuji Suzuk (@yujgains) never set out to challenge the rules, but the more he studied, the harder it became to ignore how many of them weren't built on solid ground. Now as the founder of Kintsugi Performance and Rehab, he's asking a different question entirely: not "how do we fix this broken part?" but "how do we give this person more ways to move, so they can handle whatever their environment throws at them?"In this conversation, David and Yuji go deep on ecological dynamics, the constraints-led approach, and what it actually looks like to build humans who are resilient instead of fragile. They challenge traditional movement rules, take a hard look at what pain management is really for, and make the case for why variability in movement isn't something to correct. It's something to train.Connect with the ChiroShift Podcast hosts, David & Taylor;Follow David Newton on IG: @⁠dr.david.newton⁠Follow Taylor Goldberg on IG:  @⁠thehypermobilechiro⁠Learn about PRIMED, their clinical mentorship program inside @⁠thehoneybadgerproject⁠Do your views on healthcare align?
