THE DAVID GREY REHAB PODCAST
The Need for Diversity of Movement
Kelos. Amerson's book is meant so the people can help themselves, rather than having to come into clinic. He shares his story of first bardey lesson and how he became a full-time job on social media. Kelos: "So long as everybody can step out, i'll never forget"
Did you know that ticklish feet in adulthood is a sign that your movement hasn’t developed properly?
No need to panic, though, we have an expert here to unpack that… In this episode of the David Grey Rehab Podcast, I welcome Helen Hall, a running coach, biomechanics analyst, explorer of movement, author, and owner of one of four DORIS gait analysis technology systems in the world. Using the latest in movement science and gait analysis technology, Helen helps people find solutions for their pain and injuries and teaches people to run with more speed, less effort, and fewer injuries. Sounds amazing, right?
Listen in as we talk about all things feet, movement assessment and coaching, the DORIS platform, infant vs. human movement development, and so much more.
You’ll learn how to get to the root cause of a movement problem, the importance of helping people move without overthinking the movement, and Helen’s thoughts on the proper socks, shoes, and arch support for runners.
“It’s noticing what happens when a body isn’t thinking about [movement], noticing what happens when a body IS thinking about it, to then know where next to go because if they can only do something when they’re thinking about it and then it instantly drops the minute they’re not thinking about it, then we can, I feel, quite safely go an explore maybe not an old injury in terms of joint mechanics, but go and explore the movement in terms of a developmental organization.” – Helen Hall
