Dr. Mike Wasilisin is a chiropractor with over 12 years of experience in the medical field. After working with over 10,000 patients in person and recognizing the pitfalls of the broken healthcare system that kept them feeling and performing suboptimally, he founded MoveU, an online program designed for improving posture and performance while eliminating pain.
What you'll learn from this episode:
The WHO attributes 97 percent of pain to lifestyle-related causes—which can be alleviated or eliminated just by changing the way you move.
Why you shouldn't panic if you've ever been diagnosed with the overused and abused term "scoliosis," and how Mike helped his wife Katie overcome the symptoms of enduring 17 years of it.
How running a gauntlet of far less catchy slogans for MoveU eventually resulted in Mike's spontaneous utterance of the much-celebrated one that stuck: "FIX YO SH!T"
How to fix yo deadlift—and avoid the type of back pain suffered by a high percentage of Mike's clients—with a simple pelvic hip tilt correction.
Easy lifestyle adjustments—beyond stretching—that you can take to fix yo overall spinal and body alignment (including five movements that are an absolute must).
And so much more!
