"You don't have to feel awful. I did for 16 years and you don't have to either." - Brian Herbert, PA-C For years, Brian Herbert chalked up his exhaustion to the demands of a career as an Army Ranger in special operations. It wasn't until a fellow soldier sent him a podcast about military hormone health that he had his own labs checked and discovered what had actually been true since he was 24 years old: his testosterone had been critically low for over a decade, and no one had ever told him. ...
"After my stroke when I was in ICU, the paperwork… said ‘Death likely’. And here I am." - Sarah Schreiner In January 2017, Sarah Schreiner was a healthy, active 30-year-old mother of two, fresh off a ski trip. Within days, what seemed like the flu spiraled into bacterial meningitis and two strokes. She woke up in the ICU unable to walk, feed herself, or remember how she got there, with doctors warning she might never drive or work again. That was only the beginning. Six months later, Sarah de...
"There was a time my wife was struggling with things I couldn't help her with and it was Fascial Counterstrain that got her out of it." - Dr. Dave Fascial counterstrain isn't voodoo, it's neuroscience. In this episode of Clinician's Corner, Dr. Dave breaks down the neurological model behind fascial counterstrain: how trapped inflammatory proteins (cytokines) get stuck in your tissue after an injury, how the body's own protective response ends up causing chronic pain, tightness, and dysfunctio...
In this interview episode of Good Outcomes, Dr. Dave sits down with Brian Tuckey PT, the creator of Fascial Counterstrain and one of the last physical therapists personally trained by Dr. Lawrence Jones, the osteopathic physician who developed strain counterstrain in the 1950s. Brian traces the full origin story, from his early disillusionment with "no pain, no gain" manual therapy, to the moment Dr. Jones stumbled onto counterstrain almost by accident with a single patient, to the decades of...
"Unbelievable. Every time I come in, that's the word that comes into my mind, unbelievable." For over a decade, Tim Krug, owner of Dude Wash and a Pensacola local business owner, dealt with chronic back and neck pain that chiropractors couldn't explain and regular exercise based physical therapy couldn't fix. In this episode of Patient Perspectives, Tim sits down with Dr. Dave to walk through his entire healing journey: from a basement gymnastics injury at 16, to years of "pop and pray" chiro...
"Getting fired was the best thing I ever did for my career." That's how Dr. Dave opens up about the moment his home health job pulled his salary out from under him, right before a pandemic that no one saw coming. In this episode of Good Outcomes' Clinician's Corner, Dr. Dave shares the real story behind starting Renew. You will find: How a 2019 Medicare policy shift (PDGM) quietly cut PT pay industry-wideWhy his company slashed his salary by 40% with only a few months' warningThe moment a...
How do 20 seemingly unrelated symptoms sometimes trace back to one root cause? Dr. Dave sits down with Jessica Ham, FNP, of Regenesis Performance in Pensacola for a Clinician's Corner deep dive on two of the most commonly missed chronic illness triggers: mold toxicity and Lyme disease. Jessica walks through why these conditions share so many overlapping symptoms, how she tests and confirms each one and what treatment actually looks like. Jessica Ham is a Family Nurse Pr...
"I used to sit in my house and not leave, nights and nights in a row, because I was afraid of what was gonna happen." For over a decade, patient Jen Superdock lived with a cascade of conditions that doctors struggled to connect: chronic pelvic pain, gastroparesis, GERD, Barrett's esophagus, and sudden, unexplained loss of bladder control. She tried physical therapy, pelvic floor therapy, medications, and eventually a surgically implanted bladder stimulator with underwhelming results. In t...
