The fact that we have so much research on the therapeutic alliance means that we need to be MORE focused on building better relationships with our patients.

AI gives us an opportunity to be MORE human - to do the unique things that only humans can do:

To not have to spend as much time on the admin side of healthcare, but to spend more of our energy listening, analyzing, learning, connecting, growing clinically, and better understanding our patients goals and concerns.

AI can solve a lot of the problems we face in modern healthcare – if it’s used the right way.

The clinician of the future – the one I would want to hire – knows how to use technology as a TOOL – and knows that building relationships is the non-negotiable skill.

a twist NO ONE saw coming. We might never recover from this one…

A rotator cuff tear doesn’t mean your shoulder is done.
Even a full thickness tear doesn’t automatically mean surgery, injections, or giving up the workouts and activities you love.

In part 2 of this week’s blog, I walk through a real patient case and show what real rehab actually looks like, not just band exercises and hoping for the best.

This client came in with a painful, stiff, and weak shoulder after a rotator cuff tear. He had plateaued doing random rehab on his own and was told by his doctor that at his age, he should basically be happy just walking to the mailbox (😬).

Instead, we built a progressive plan:
✔️ First, we calmed the shoulder down and restored basic mobility and strength
✔️ Then we rebuilt real capacity with smart loading and progressive strength work
✔️ Finally, we layered him back into the movements he actually cares about like pull ups, handstand push ups, ring dips, and Olympic lifts

Today, he’s back doing all the things he loves and trusting his shoulder again.

The big takeaway: pain going away isn’t the finish line. The goal is rebuilding strength, tolerance, and confidence so your shoulder can handle real life and real training.

If you’ve been dealing with shoulder pain or were told you have a rotator cuff tear, this one’s worth the read 👇

I know AI is polarizing – but I do think, when used responsibly, it can massively improve healthcare by 
removing the invisible admin burden that keeps doctors and clinicians from being fully present with their patients.

If we use it the right way, it can restore what we’ve lost: human to human interactions and real doctor-patient relationships

(which can’t happen in 7 minute visits or when your doc is being stretched extremely thin by the system) 

Admin (writing notes, billing, emails, etc) is NEVER the best use of a clinicians time. What if we could take all of that way?  

Healthcare reform could take decades. AI is capable NOW of solving a lot of the problems in our broken healthcare system.

We have to do everything in our power to help our patients and control what we can control.

Got knee pain?

Sure this might be the most boring exercise known to man BUT holding isometric contractions can be super helpful to decrease pain, desensitize tendons, and start loading irritated tissues

Load these bad boys up to make them CHALLENGING but tolerable 🤘🏼

ps. any exercise that targets your quads/knees will work - find what works for you!
