12
00:01:07.239 --> 00:01:10.680
long we've known each other, but
it's been many, many years. It's

15
00:01:18.480 --> 00:01:23.040
So when we talked about doing this

00:01:23.640 --> 00:01:30.920
your new company Well it's been around
a little while, but new were in
17
00:01:30.959 --> 00:01:34.079
the last few years. For sure. It is I started it well,
18
00:01:34.079 --> 00:01:38.959
I started Therapeutic Wellness years ago,
but as it sits today, I started
19
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:42.799
it about five years ago part time, yeah, that one day a week,
20
00:01:42.920 --> 00:01:45.280
right, about one day a week, yeah, and then I went
21
00:01:45.359 --> 00:01:49.159
full time in January of twenty twenty
three, January twenty And it was around
22
00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:52.920
twenty twenty when you were doing kind
of the one day a week thing.
23
00:01:53.040 --> 00:01:57.519
Twenty twenty had a lot of people
doing different things. You know, I
24
00:01:57.560 --> 00:02:02.079
started this podcast here where we're recording
right now in twenty twenty and people are
25
00:02:02.079 --> 00:02:05.879
always like, are you crazy?
That was a crazy time to start,
26
00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:09.039
but you know, it's worked out
for you, it's worked out for me.
27
00:02:09.280 --> 00:02:13.599
And so we're going to kind of
tell people a little bit about your
28
00:02:13.680 --> 00:02:19.000
history before we get into luck your
amazing business. There's a lot about your
29
00:02:19.039 --> 00:02:23.120
business that people may kind of be
familiar with, but we're going to dive
30
00:02:23.199 --> 00:02:27.080
deep into that and give them a
little more knowledge on it. But you
31
00:02:27.199 --> 00:02:30.599
grew up in New York, upstate
New York. I didn't realize it was
32
00:02:30.680 --> 00:02:35.280
upstate till I moved out of state. It was just New York then,
33
00:02:35.360 --> 00:02:39.479
huh and what city was that?
Schenectady. Yeah, and I had you
34
00:02:39.520 --> 00:02:43.479
say that because you wrote it,
and I'm like, I'm not even gonna
35
00:02:43.479 --> 00:02:46.879
try to pronounce that. I knew
that it's Connectedy. Yes, there you
36
00:02:46.919 --> 00:02:50.479
go it Schenectady, and guarantee there's
someone out there that's heard of that been
37
00:02:50.520 --> 00:02:54.039
there or maybe even be from there. But you graduated from pt school that
38
00:02:54.199 --> 00:02:59.599
was in the early nineties, Yes, and then you moved to Kentucky.
39
00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:06.400
Back then, they pets were in
the They're needed, and so a company
40
00:03:06.400 --> 00:03:10.439
from Kentucky paid for part of my
last year of school. Very good,
41
00:03:10.840 --> 00:03:15.599
very good. So you went there
and eventually, you know, you met
42
00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:19.919
a guy. I did after Kentucky, I did traveling therapy, and then
43
00:03:20.199 --> 00:03:23.560
I was in Hattiesburg, Mississippi,
and met my husband and came here.
44
00:03:23.039 --> 00:03:29.400
Yeah. And here you are in
Denham Springs and your husband is mister Patrick
45
00:03:29.520 --> 00:03:34.120
Jean and he has a good history
out here in Denham Springs area. Yes,
46
00:03:34.199 --> 00:03:38.919
he's I was from a good painting
family, the Harlan Painting Yeah.
47
00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:44.159
Yeah, I'm very familiar with them
and all very talented painters. And you
48
00:03:44.199 --> 00:03:49.360
have a daughter, yes, Joe
yes, all right. And I know
49
00:03:49.479 --> 00:03:52.039
one thing about you that you wrote
on here that we need to mention,
50
00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:54.120
and that's what you love traveling.
I do like to travel, yeah,
51
00:03:54.159 --> 00:03:59.639
all over the country, all over
the country. And and look, I
52
00:03:59.680 --> 00:04:01.680
thought I used to follow you.
Well, I still follow you on Facebook,
53
00:04:01.680 --> 00:04:04.479
but I used to go on your
Facebook and I would see where you're
54
00:04:04.520 --> 00:04:08.360
at. And that's how I play
my trips. I'm like, that looks
55
00:04:08.400 --> 00:04:13.639
like fun Natch's trace. That is
fun. It looked like fun. And
56
00:04:13.719 --> 00:04:16.000
you take great pictures, so that
was always nice. But you like hiking,
57
00:04:16.279 --> 00:04:20.360
so you're very active, try to
be yeah, So have you always
58
00:04:20.360 --> 00:04:24.560
been that way? Always been active? And I have been. I did
59
00:04:24.800 --> 00:04:29.000
Jane Fonda back in the day.
Yeah, put the lag warmers and that
60
00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:33.720
takes me. And I believe a
body in motion stays in motion. Yeah,
61
00:04:33.720 --> 00:04:38.560
absolutely, it's uh, you know, I've always believed it was kind
62
00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:42.360
of like a machine. You know, if you stop using it, you're
63
00:04:42.360 --> 00:04:46.279
gonna it's gonna fall apart on you. Right, yep. So you started,
64
00:04:46.319 --> 00:04:51.199
as we mentioned, therapeutic wellness in
January of twenty twenty, and you
65
00:04:51.240 --> 00:04:54.879
were kind of doing it one day
a week while you had another job.
66
00:04:55.439 --> 00:04:59.560
And you ended up eventually going full
time in it in January of twenty twenty
67
00:04:59.560 --> 00:05:05.759
three. Yes, tell me about
that. Tell me what the biggest challenge
68
00:05:05.839 --> 00:05:13.240
has been since you went full time
in it. Honestly, probably the biggest
69
00:05:13.319 --> 00:05:17.079
challenge is belief in myself. Yeah, yes, huh that surprises me.
70
00:05:18.399 --> 00:05:23.519
Well, we all have self worth, is absolutely. I was with the
71
00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:28.759
prior company for years, and I
was the face of that company for years,
72
00:05:29.480 --> 00:05:31.839
and when I was doing none,
they told me in January of twenty
73
00:05:31.879 --> 00:05:39.319
twenty three that I was no longer
needed to be there, and so there
74
00:05:39.399 --> 00:05:43.240
was my answer. But I had
been praying what do I do? And
75
00:05:43.399 --> 00:05:46.800
God help me figure out what I'm
supposed to do the most painless way possible.
76
00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:51.040
So I was let go and that's
what Cattile pulted me into doing this
77
00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:56.079
full time. And it's been phenomenal. If I hadn't been let go,
78
00:05:57.399 --> 00:06:00.079
I would always wonder, if things
got a little soul, maybe I should
79
00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:03.519
have done this. You just nailed
it. But now I know that I'm
80
00:06:03.519 --> 00:06:06.399
where I'm supposed to be or else. God want to shut that door because
81
00:06:08.839 --> 00:06:12.639
sometimes people need that. They have
to have that door shut to open another
82
00:06:12.639 --> 00:06:15.439
one. There's people out there that
are going to watch this that are in
83
00:06:15.480 --> 00:06:21.160
that situation. I cannot tell you
the amount of people that have sat across
84
00:06:21.160 --> 00:06:28.319
from me, and I've talked to
hundreds that have that same story that in
85
00:06:28.439 --> 00:06:33.680
some of them they they needed that
to really do what they were meant to
86
00:06:33.720 --> 00:06:39.000
be doing, right, And so, uh, you know, it's all
87
00:06:39.040 --> 00:06:44.720
in God's plan. And maybe God
knew that you're loyal, You're you know,
88
00:06:44.959 --> 00:06:47.680
I know who you are, and
so maybe he knew that, you
89
00:06:47.680 --> 00:06:53.560
know, sometimes you have to be
almost forced in that direction, right,
90
00:06:53.680 --> 00:06:58.040
And I was because I wouldn't have
left if I wasn't right exactly. So,
91
00:06:58.920 --> 00:07:00.800
Uh, Janie, we're twenty twenty
three, there you are, and
92
00:07:00.839 --> 00:07:03.959
you've got this business, and you
said, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna
93
00:07:03.959 --> 00:07:09.560
stop. I'm gonna You know,
you're extremely highly educated, and we'll get
94
00:07:09.560 --> 00:07:13.160
into that a little bit as well. But it had to be a little
95
00:07:13.160 --> 00:07:15.000
figure in there for you. I
talk about it all the time. When
96
00:07:15.040 --> 00:07:19.360
I started this, I was,
you know, as as confident as I
97
00:07:19.519 --> 00:07:23.680
was in myself, and I knew
if I applied myself, I could do
98
00:07:23.759 --> 00:07:27.120
anything. Uh. I was praying
that phone. We're worrying. There's no
99
00:07:27.199 --> 00:07:30.959
doubt about it. Yeah, you
know, So you take off in January
100
00:07:30.959 --> 00:07:36.319
of twenty twenty three, and let's
talk about what you do. So I
101
00:07:36.360 --> 00:07:43.199
am a physical therapist. I learned
about the John Barnes Malfosh release process.
102
00:07:43.720 --> 00:07:46.879
I don't know that process is the
right word. Techniques maybe, Yeah,
103
00:07:47.000 --> 00:07:50.079
when I was in Peach School.
He's been around since the sixties, nineteen
104
00:07:50.120 --> 00:07:57.120
sixties, and he's still around.
I've taken many classes from him. Yeah,
105
00:07:57.160 --> 00:08:01.199
he's not teaching as much now.
In October, I have classes scheduled
106
00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:05.879
to be with him and hopefully he
will really. Oh that's cool. Yeah,
107
00:08:07.240 --> 00:08:11.319
that cool. So anyway, so
I learned about it in PT school,
108
00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:16.439
but they said this method is a
body mind connection and your clients may
109
00:08:16.560 --> 00:08:20.480
have emotional releases. And in my
young twenties, I'm like, what the
110
00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:24.319
heck am I going to do with
a client if she starts or he start
111
00:08:24.399 --> 00:08:28.680
to cry or something, you know, scared of tears. So I really
112
00:08:28.680 --> 00:08:33.039
didn't do a lot about that then, but I learned some of the techniques
113
00:08:33.080 --> 00:08:37.840
and I use them, some of
the structural techniques. And then when I
114
00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:41.600
moved here to Baton Rouge, I
looked for a therapist that did this,
115
00:08:41.799 --> 00:08:45.080
and I could not find one.
I probably took me till twenty sixteen to
116
00:08:45.120 --> 00:08:50.399
find one that was even in the
area. But I was working at the
117
00:08:50.440 --> 00:08:54.840
bat News General and we worked with
a lot with the burn unit. It's
118
00:08:54.879 --> 00:09:00.159
outpatient, so it was all soft
tissue scar management. And I worked with
119
00:09:00.159 --> 00:09:05.960
a lady and we worked with breast
cancer survivors and treatment from that, which
120
00:09:05.000 --> 00:09:07.840
is a lot of scarring. I
could see where you get your bedside manger
121
00:09:07.919 --> 00:09:13.159
from, because those are two very
tough especially the burning in it. Yeah,
122
00:09:13.399 --> 00:09:18.840
very tough field area to be involved
in work in. H You know,
123
00:09:20.919 --> 00:09:22.639
it's just what you think you would
think it is. It's a lot
124
00:09:22.679 --> 00:09:26.039
of pain, it is, and
by the time I saw them, a
125
00:09:26.080 --> 00:09:31.120
lot of that pain was. It
was different because it was healed, but
126
00:09:31.200 --> 00:09:35.639
it was all soft tissue. It
was all scarring and some of the stuff.
127
00:09:35.679 --> 00:09:37.200
The lady, the ot that I
worked with, had gone to some
128
00:09:37.240 --> 00:09:41.600
of his John's classes and she taught
me some stuff. And then I started
129
00:09:41.600 --> 00:09:45.919
doing some things and I didn't really
know what was happening. I just knew
130
00:09:45.919 --> 00:09:48.080
if I put my hands on people
and held them there for a while,
131
00:09:50.399 --> 00:09:54.320
things would shift and things would happen
and they'd feel better. So I'd would
132
00:09:54.360 --> 00:09:56.639
just say it's voodoo, you know, it's somefing the weazy. Yeah,
133
00:09:56.679 --> 00:10:00.919
that's all I was about to say. It's not, and it's it's Uh,
134
00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:05.159
I've done it. So It's one
thing I really like about doing this
135
00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:09.039
podcast with you is I can I
can speak from experience, and I'll do
136
00:10:09.080 --> 00:10:13.039
that in just a little while.
But I know what you mean. Yeah.
137
00:10:13.440 --> 00:10:16.440
So when I started going to his
classes, he put the science behind
138
00:10:16.440 --> 00:10:22.360
what I was doing. So I've
really been doing it longer than I've been
139
00:10:22.399 --> 00:10:28.039
trained by him. Yeah, So
it just but it doesn't fit well in
140
00:10:28.039 --> 00:10:31.799
a traditional physical therapy setting because it's
all one on one and you can't You've
141
00:10:31.799 --> 00:10:37.039
got to see one patient at a
time and you can't see multiple people at
142
00:10:37.039 --> 00:10:39.879
one time, right right, That
makes all the sense in the world.
143
00:10:41.519 --> 00:10:52.320
So for those that may not be
familiar, explain myophacia to the laeman.
144
00:10:52.679 --> 00:10:58.960
What does that mean? What does
it involve? So mile fascia is mile
145
00:10:58.039 --> 00:11:07.360
from muscle for fascia, So it's
a Actually someone a couple of years ago
146
00:11:07.399 --> 00:11:11.320
said it was the late newest organ
that was discovered, but it wasn't just
147
00:11:11.399 --> 00:11:16.360
recently discovered it was kind of funny. But anyway, when you skin a
148
00:11:16.399 --> 00:11:20.360
deer. We're from Livingston Parish here, so a lot of people have experience
149
00:11:20.440 --> 00:11:26.559
skinning an animal. There's that silver
skin, that shiny stuff that is your
150
00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:30.960
fascial system, and there's no beginning
or no end to it. That's all
151
00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:33.480
continuous. If you've seen it,
understand that. If you haven't, you
152
00:11:35.399 --> 00:11:39.559
yep. But almost everyone's seen the
chicken at least, and you take the
153
00:11:39.600 --> 00:11:43.960
skin off the chicken breast or the
chicken thigh or whatever, and there's still
154
00:11:43.960 --> 00:11:46.720
that shiny stuff that's the fascial system. So it's around the whole body,
155
00:11:46.840 --> 00:11:50.919
it's around each muscle and organ,
but then it goes down to the cellular
156
00:11:52.000 --> 00:11:56.320
level and it's in each cell membrane. So that makes it an integral web
157
00:11:56.000 --> 00:12:01.120
that's three D. That's the shape
of you, and it holds things into
158
00:12:01.200 --> 00:12:03.120
place. It has a biot in
segrety a component to it, which is
159
00:12:03.159 --> 00:12:07.320
a whole another podcast. But it
holds scends into a place, so your
160
00:12:07.320 --> 00:12:11.240
heart stays where your heart's supposed to
be, whether you're standing up, lying
161
00:12:11.279 --> 00:12:13.840
down, doing flips in the air, everything kind of stays. What's supposed
162
00:12:13.879 --> 00:12:18.320
to be because it's held into place
by that tense style structure of the fascial
163
00:12:18.360 --> 00:12:24.480
system. And if you think of
a bridge with the cables, that's the
164
00:12:24.600 --> 00:12:28.399
tension holds the bridge in place,
the tension from the cable. So if
165
00:12:28.440 --> 00:12:33.519
you think of that web inside of
us, it's that tension. So then
166
00:12:33.080 --> 00:12:37.639
there's also a fluid component of it
which is not seen any imaging, any
167
00:12:37.759 --> 00:12:43.840
mri CT ultrasound photograph. You cannot
see that. And that's the other eighty
168
00:12:43.879 --> 00:12:52.399
percent of the fascial system. And
that's where a lot of other practitioners they
169
00:12:52.440 --> 00:13:01.840
aren't aware of that because medicine and
anatomy was studied on avers and it's gone
170
00:13:03.080 --> 00:13:07.639
when we die, it's gone.
So the book that I have and I
171
00:13:07.679 --> 00:13:11.200
won't even try to pronounce his name, maybe you can put it somewhere in
172
00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:16.600
the comments in here. It was
published in twenty fourteen. So that's how
173
00:13:16.679 --> 00:13:22.519
new the science is of how what
it looks like under the skin of a
174
00:13:22.559 --> 00:13:28.519
live person versus someone a cadaver.
Yeah, so it's just a netting on
175
00:13:28.639 --> 00:13:31.879
us throughout your whole body, and
it conforms with your body. Yes,
176
00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:39.120
okay, And how would how would
someone know I need this service. What
177
00:13:39.120 --> 00:13:45.159
what are some warning signs that maybe
they need the service. I guess well,
178
00:13:46.240 --> 00:13:48.960
if you want to start with birth, sure you have the trauma of
179
00:13:50.000 --> 00:13:54.519
birth, of coming through. So
there's that trauma. We have trauma learning
180
00:13:54.559 --> 00:13:58.879
how to walk, we have trauma. I mean, even if you had
181
00:13:58.879 --> 00:14:03.799
an ideal, whatever ideal is upbringing, there's always traumas that come through.
182
00:14:03.919 --> 00:14:09.960
Sure, for Pete's sake, Now
everyone's on their phone leaning forward. There's
183
00:14:09.960 --> 00:14:15.919
something called cell phone neck. All
of that is our body wants to be
184
00:14:15.960 --> 00:14:20.480
efficient. So if we are in
a position for any period of time,
185
00:14:20.480 --> 00:14:26.639
it's going to harden. So that
fascial system, that ground substance should be
186
00:14:26.639 --> 00:14:31.360
slashy like water. You shake a
water bottle over time, it gets thick
187
00:14:31.399 --> 00:14:35.399
like honey. Yeah, so it
gets thicker, and then it can get
188
00:14:35.480 --> 00:14:43.799
like if you have real honey,
it will crystallize so it gets even firmer,
189
00:14:43.440 --> 00:14:48.120
and then it can get this firm
like sap that's been ambered, ambered
190
00:14:48.120 --> 00:14:50.960
sap if y all know what that
is, and that's hard. That's as
191
00:14:52.000 --> 00:14:54.679
hard as it. Yeah, it
looks like, yeah, it's marble.
192
00:14:54.840 --> 00:14:58.559
And so that can put up to
two thousand pounds of pressure on a structure
193
00:15:00.720 --> 00:15:03.399
and it won't show up on any
imaging. So why do people come and
194
00:15:03.399 --> 00:15:09.320
see me? Often that come because
they have pain somewhere, but some people
195
00:15:09.320 --> 00:15:16.200
come because they know of the component
that the body is as the emotions and
196
00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:20.519
the physical body are not separate.
So some people come for emotional reasons anxiety,
197
00:15:20.600 --> 00:15:28.200
depression, stress, stress, I
think, and this would be just
198
00:15:28.240 --> 00:15:33.919
a good part of this podcast to
interject. When I had it done,
199
00:15:35.279 --> 00:15:39.039
it was stress related. I was
just under a lot of stress, which
200
00:15:39.200 --> 00:15:43.519
was look, stress will kill you. You hear me, It will kill
201
00:15:43.559 --> 00:15:50.159
you dead. And you know business
owners have stress. I mean you were
202
00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:56.799
all with it, it's part of
it. But I was increasingly stressed.
203
00:15:58.320 --> 00:16:03.399
And I can tell you, I
don't know exactly what you did to Deestra
204
00:16:03.840 --> 00:16:07.879
to make that go away, but
I felt one hundred percent better after and
205
00:16:07.960 --> 00:16:14.159
it was almost like I wanted to
a zone or something. It's it's really
206
00:16:14.159 --> 00:16:18.600
hard to explain, but stress will
also cause you to have pain. It
207
00:16:18.639 --> 00:16:22.080
does, and that's what got me
studying this even more. After the flood
208
00:16:22.080 --> 00:16:26.159
of twenty sixteen, I realized people
are showing up with back pain, neck
209
00:16:26.240 --> 00:16:29.960
pain, shoulder pain, whatever pain
you wanted to call it, but what
210
00:16:30.000 --> 00:16:36.200
I was treating was PTSD. Very
interesting and I realized that and that's a
211
00:16:36.240 --> 00:16:38.879
real thing with that flood it is, that is a real thing. I
212
00:16:38.960 --> 00:16:42.480
know people that when it rains they
go into almost to panic. I mean
213
00:16:42.519 --> 00:16:48.919
it's not outwardly, but inside there
watching the weather closely because they remember that
214
00:16:48.039 --> 00:16:51.360
and they got caught in the middle
last time and they don't want to get
215
00:16:51.360 --> 00:16:55.399
caught in the middle again. And
that's just one example of what can cause
216
00:16:55.399 --> 00:17:02.600
PTSD get one percent. Military guys
abuse, all kinds of things. Yeah,
217
00:17:02.639 --> 00:17:11.160
and it's it's probably one of the
most undiagnosed issues because with PTSD a
218
00:17:11.200 --> 00:17:15.240
lot of times, especially men,
men don't like to admit that they have
219
00:17:15.359 --> 00:17:19.960
PTSD on things. They consider it
weak, you know, And so I
220
00:17:19.960 --> 00:17:26.079
can I'm with you on that and
right. And when I first started,
221
00:17:26.160 --> 00:17:30.640
I was in a something just kind
of was going on in my life and
222
00:17:30.680 --> 00:17:33.119
I started having panic attacks. I
didn't know what they were, but I
223
00:17:33.200 --> 00:17:37.759
described to just happen to describe,
this is what happens to me. And
224
00:17:37.759 --> 00:17:40.640
I said, you're having a panic
attack. Well, if you don't know,
225
00:17:40.759 --> 00:17:45.359
you don't know, right, So
I didn't know, so then once
226
00:17:45.400 --> 00:17:47.599
I knew it, thought, oh, that's what that is. So either
227
00:17:47.599 --> 00:17:49.400
I have to get out get help, or I can say, surely you're
228
00:17:49.400 --> 00:17:55.680
having a panic attack and do whatever
I needed to do to participate that.
229
00:17:55.880 --> 00:18:02.240
Yeah, right under control in that
situation. Sure. Very interesting. So
230
00:18:03.559 --> 00:18:08.039
I want to dig a little deeper
into that, and I want to ask
231
00:18:08.079 --> 00:18:15.160
you this question. Fibromilgia is that
something that would work well with what with
232
00:18:15.599 --> 00:18:18.400
myophacia? It really does, and
it gives answers to a lot of the
233
00:18:18.519 --> 00:18:25.640
questions that the clients, clients people
who have that label have. There's actually
234
00:18:25.680 --> 00:18:29.440
a book called the Fibro Manual,
which is phenomenal. It's written by a
235
00:18:29.480 --> 00:18:37.880
physician who diagnosed with fibromyalgia in medical
school and her whole training has been on
236
00:18:37.400 --> 00:18:41.599
how to treat it. And this
is a big component of that because it's
237
00:18:41.640 --> 00:18:45.640
a mile fascil system and stuff doesn't
show up on imaging right when you have
238
00:18:45.680 --> 00:18:51.519
that. And that's the issue because
I don't want to say a typical doctor,
239
00:18:51.599 --> 00:18:56.240
but people are trained that they see
an injury, they treat the injury,
240
00:18:56.400 --> 00:18:57.799
and so they do an X ray
and if your arm's broke, they're
241
00:18:57.839 --> 00:19:03.519
going to fix your arm. But
if they can't see the injury, you
242
00:19:03.559 --> 00:19:07.559
know, a lot of people don't
know how to react to that. They
243
00:19:07.640 --> 00:19:11.480
don't know how to help you if
they can't actually see it on the next
244
00:19:11.559 --> 00:19:14.759
ray, would you agree with that
they write because that's how they're trained.
245
00:19:14.759 --> 00:19:17.519
They're trained to fix the problem.
If they don't see a problem, they
246
00:19:17.519 --> 00:19:21.720
don't know how to fix it.
And the fascial system this way is new
247
00:19:21.799 --> 00:19:25.920
science, so they don't may not
even be aware that that's how the fascial
248
00:19:25.960 --> 00:19:30.000
system works because it's not I mean, I learned John Barnes method in PT
249
00:19:30.160 --> 00:19:33.400
school in the early nineties, but
I didn't learn the science behind it.
250
00:19:33.640 --> 00:19:36.839
I just learned these are his techniques. Well, and you're very limited in
251
00:19:36.880 --> 00:19:40.079
what you do, and that there's
only a few people in the entire state
252
00:19:41.440 --> 00:19:45.039
there is they practice that right there. There's four in the Baton Rouge,
253
00:19:45.640 --> 00:19:52.519
Livingston Parish, New Orleans area that
do this full time. Yeah, yeah,
254
00:19:52.559 --> 00:19:55.759
that's limited. That's three and a
half. Yeah, yeah, so
255
00:19:55.799 --> 00:20:00.000
that you know what for you,
I mean, it's deasently a good thing
256
00:20:00.119 --> 00:20:04.440
that you're in a you're in a
market where you needed and it's understaffed.
257
00:20:04.480 --> 00:20:10.559
I guess you could say so that
that is always a good thing. And
258
00:20:11.559 --> 00:20:17.240
I want to talk about the process. So if somebody maybe they're listening right
259
00:20:17.279 --> 00:20:19.279
now and they're saying, you know
what, I want to try that out
260
00:20:19.720 --> 00:20:25.519
because I'm, you know, maybe
having some PTSD issues or maybe maybe I'm
261
00:20:25.559 --> 00:20:30.440
having some pain and I've tried everything
else and it's not working. Take me
262
00:20:30.559 --> 00:20:34.759
through the process of of what you
would do. There's a couple of ways.
263
00:20:36.200 --> 00:20:40.240
So you can go to my website
very easy, cherylg dot com.
264
00:20:40.279 --> 00:20:45.440
There you go spelled c A g
R Y L j E A n E,
265
00:20:45.640 --> 00:20:48.400
and we're going to link it to
YEA. So if you're driving or
266
00:20:48.440 --> 00:20:52.400
something, just click the link when
you get home and you can schedule from
267
00:20:52.440 --> 00:20:56.160
there, or you can call or
text me and that'll be in the link.
268
00:20:56.200 --> 00:21:03.480
Also, texting is easier because I
can't answer my phone. I won't
269
00:21:03.480 --> 00:21:07.720
answer my phone while i'm working on
someone sure, and so if I'm between
270
00:21:07.759 --> 00:21:11.160
clients, I can quickly answer a
text. I can do that quicker than
271
00:21:11.160 --> 00:21:15.160
I can call. And you can
always email me, so you can get
272
00:21:15.200 --> 00:21:18.039
me all those ways and I'll answer
as soon as possible. But I will
273
00:21:18.079 --> 00:21:23.359
say this sometimes I'll get out of
session, and I'll have like eighteen text
274
00:21:23.400 --> 00:21:29.400
message failing, and sometimes I go
to tuch someone something else, I'm like,
275
00:21:29.440 --> 00:21:33.640
oh, there's the message and it
hits send two three days ago I've
276
00:21:33.759 --> 00:21:37.680
done that, or it slips down
to where you don't ever see it,
277
00:21:38.000 --> 00:21:42.680
you know. Sometimes, So if
I don't reply, reach out again because
278
00:21:42.720 --> 00:21:47.599
it's because that's what's happened. Yeah, no doubt about it. And do
279
00:21:47.680 --> 00:21:52.200
people confuse this with like just typical
massage. It's a totally different modality.
280
00:21:52.640 --> 00:21:59.359
Yes, exactly, So they're they're
different. There's a different I guessed in
281
00:21:59.480 --> 00:22:03.519
goalie with those two things, wouldn't
you agree? Yes? Yeah. So
282
00:22:04.240 --> 00:22:07.720
another interesting thing about what you do
that I didn't know until and I was
283
00:22:07.759 --> 00:22:12.000
glad you put this on on your
little questionnaire, was uh, that you
284
00:22:12.039 --> 00:22:17.200
can go to the patient. I
can? Yeah, So depending on where
285
00:22:17.200 --> 00:22:21.680
they are, I do go.
I can't go to their to the to
286
00:22:21.799 --> 00:22:23.920
where they are. I prefer it
to be at a business. Yeah,
287
00:22:25.039 --> 00:22:29.799
so like customer appreciation, I can
bring my chair or I can bring my
288
00:22:29.880 --> 00:22:33.599
table. Honestly, I'm very picky
about if I go to their home.
289
00:22:33.680 --> 00:22:37.960
I need to know them absolutely,
one hundred percent. Yes, being honest
290
00:22:38.160 --> 00:22:45.039
that's right. No, that's that's
honest and safe. But a situation where
291
00:22:45.000 --> 00:22:48.920
you know you're doing you're going to
a business and they're having a whatever or
292
00:22:49.079 --> 00:22:53.680
grain opening or something like that,
and it's she come there and and kind
293
00:22:53.720 --> 00:22:57.000
of show people how how it works
maybe or whatever. Or I can go
294
00:22:57.279 --> 00:23:03.640
and do a full treatment and set
up in a like a quiet area and
295
00:23:03.680 --> 00:23:06.240
you can send you and see.
That would be me because what I hate
296
00:23:06.400 --> 00:23:10.599
is having to leave here. Having
to leave my office is like pulling teeth
297
00:23:10.680 --> 00:23:12.640
with me. You know, I
just feel like a fish out of water.
298
00:23:12.759 --> 00:23:17.640
So it's convenient for people like me
that I hate to leave the office.
299
00:23:17.680 --> 00:23:23.119
But I was happy to see that
you also have a space at doctor
300
00:23:23.200 --> 00:23:27.960
Ripples. Yes, okay, sixteen
eighty Benton Lanes, corner of Florida and
301
00:23:29.000 --> 00:23:33.720
Benton. Let's talk about your education
real Q. So you got your doctorate.
302
00:23:33.319 --> 00:23:37.559
I did. Back when I went
to pet school, there was a
303
00:23:37.559 --> 00:23:41.359
doctorate wasn't available, so I got
my bachelor's. Then I went back and
304
00:23:41.400 --> 00:23:48.279
got my doctorate, I guess twenty
twelve. Yeah, and I'm a forever
305
00:23:48.359 --> 00:23:52.359
learner. Yeah. I think I
spent well, we won't say how much
306
00:23:52.359 --> 00:24:02.599
I spent a lot probably the past. Well, in twenty twenty. In
307
00:24:02.599 --> 00:24:04.240
twenty twenty one, it didn't take
as many classes, but in twenty two
308
00:24:04.279 --> 00:24:08.839
and twenty three I took over six
classes, so it was over. I
309
00:24:08.920 --> 00:24:11.200
remember, I can't do the math
that quick in my head. Yeah,
310
00:24:11.319 --> 00:24:17.440
but of continuing education because I just
believe in that, and that's formal classes
311
00:24:17.480 --> 00:24:19.880
that I've been to doesn't count anything
else. And you have a huge passion
312
00:24:19.920 --> 00:24:26.200
for it, which if you know
Ryl Jane, you know that already.
313
00:24:26.240 --> 00:24:32.039
But I'm telling y'all, I don't
think there's anybody that loves the anatomy of
314
00:24:32.119 --> 00:24:36.200
the human body and how it works
and more than you do. I mean,
315
00:24:36.279 --> 00:24:41.559
it just seems like that's something that
has intrigued you ever since fun Yeah,
316
00:24:41.759 --> 00:24:47.759
yeah, absolutely, and since the
ninth grade. That's when I decided
317
00:24:47.759 --> 00:24:49.960
I wanted to be a pet.
Yeah, that's pretty cool. I wanted
318
00:24:49.960 --> 00:24:53.319
to be a football player. In
most I thought I was gonna play for
319
00:24:53.359 --> 00:24:59.279
the Dallas Cowboys. So that's pretty
awesome that you're pretty much your entire life
320
00:24:59.319 --> 00:25:03.319
from the time you figure out what
you at least found it interesting, You've
321
00:25:03.319 --> 00:25:06.880
want to do this, and here
you are now and you're still doing it,
322
00:25:07.119 --> 00:25:10.759
yes, and making it happen.
Not only doing that, but your
323
00:25:10.759 --> 00:25:15.200
own business, you know, And
that's that's the beautiful thing there. As
324
00:25:15.240 --> 00:25:18.359
you said, you're a forever learner. You're someone that you love to learn
325
00:25:18.440 --> 00:25:23.599
new information. And I would imagine
in your field, something's always coming up.
326
00:25:23.640 --> 00:25:29.160
They're science is constantly learning, right, They're figuring new ways to do
327
00:25:29.279 --> 00:25:33.880
things. It is we will never
understand the total body, will never understand
328
00:25:33.880 --> 00:25:40.039
the whole body totally. And what
I've also learned is to always approach each
329
00:25:40.079 --> 00:25:47.880
class as a beginner. Yeah.
So I have retaken a class and last
330
00:25:47.920 --> 00:25:52.039
year and when the first time I
took it, I'm like, I knew
331
00:25:52.039 --> 00:25:56.039
most of that stuff. Yeah.
The second time I took it, I
332
00:25:56.079 --> 00:26:00.640
said, crap, I didn't know
anything. So I went back. I
333
00:26:00.720 --> 00:26:03.799
actually and I took it from the
same teacher. Yeah, And I went
334
00:26:03.880 --> 00:26:07.799
back and I looked, I said, the books cannot be the same,
335
00:26:07.240 --> 00:26:11.880
right, They're exactly the same.
But I came from a different standpoint.
336
00:26:11.880 --> 00:26:14.559
I was at a different part of
my life, a different part of my
337
00:26:14.640 --> 00:26:18.359
learning journey. I went in as
a beginner, and it was like a
338
00:26:18.359 --> 00:26:22.640
whole new class. Yeah, your
whole perspective changed. And that's interesting.
339
00:26:22.839 --> 00:26:27.279
You never step in the same river
twice. I like that. You never
340
00:26:27.319 --> 00:26:32.240
step in the same river twice.
That's a fact. Cheryl Jean knows a
341
00:26:32.279 --> 00:26:36.759
lot about a lot when it comes
to not only what she's doing with her
342
00:26:36.839 --> 00:26:41.519
business, but also other aspects of
that business. I took a class from
343
00:26:41.559 --> 00:26:44.279
you one time. I don't remember
what it was, but it wore me
344
00:26:44.400 --> 00:26:48.319
out. It might have been yan
yoga or something, some sort of class,
345
00:26:48.319 --> 00:26:49.559
and I was going, I was
the only guy in there, y'all.
346
00:26:49.680 --> 00:26:52.119
I was like, why am I
the only dude in here? But
347
00:26:52.359 --> 00:26:56.720
let me tell you. It was
challenging. It was about thirty minutes of
348
00:26:56.799 --> 00:27:00.039
all kinds of crazy stuff. That
might have been pie pia, That's what
349
00:27:00.079 --> 00:27:04.240
it was. Yeah, pia is
tough. It is really tough. But
350
00:27:04.319 --> 00:27:07.039
I had a great time doing it. I was sore for about a while.
351
00:27:07.240 --> 00:27:11.759
I needed the maya facient after that
you did. And and before we
352
00:27:11.799 --> 00:27:17.720
get on that topic with the maya
facia, if if you have soreness,
353
00:27:18.680 --> 00:27:21.480
you know, you work out or
something. Maybe maybe you ever do it
354
00:27:21.519 --> 00:27:23.640
a little bit, or you work
out for the first time in a long
355
00:27:23.720 --> 00:27:29.000
time, and everybody knows that three
day soreness after that where you can't lift
356
00:27:29.039 --> 00:27:32.400
your arm above your head because your
chest is hurting. Would that be something
357
00:27:32.480 --> 00:27:37.839
good for Yes, Okay. My
rule of thumb with my clients is I
358
00:27:37.920 --> 00:27:41.720
teach them. I teach them stretches
always. You can always try heater ice.
359
00:27:41.599 --> 00:27:47.640
Some people have portable tens units at
home and stretch and if it doesn't
360
00:27:47.680 --> 00:27:49.200
get better in two or three days, if it doesn't make a change,
361
00:27:49.200 --> 00:27:52.200
you need to get going and get
some help. Yeah, because the sooner
362
00:27:52.240 --> 00:27:56.799
you can get treated, the less
time it takes you to get back to
363
00:27:56.799 --> 00:28:00.240
where you want to be. Yeah, that's a that's a great point.
364
00:28:00.480 --> 00:28:06.880
So you do do some other things
and you teach you and yoga we brought
365
00:28:06.880 --> 00:28:08.599
that up earlier. Yeah, I
teach you in yoga. That is an
366
00:28:08.599 --> 00:28:14.200
extension of my table because what I
do on the table is three to five
367
00:28:14.200 --> 00:28:18.920
minute holds. So here at yan
yoga, you teach you learn how to
368
00:28:18.960 --> 00:28:23.160
do it yourself. Yeah, and
what is yan yoga? That's I'm actually
369
00:28:23.279 --> 00:28:29.799
going to change the name too,
or need to change the name to mile
370
00:28:29.880 --> 00:28:34.359
fashi in because some people get afraid
of yo yoga. Yeah, and they
371
00:28:34.359 --> 00:28:42.079
think it's too hard because of your
experience, which is plate's yoga yan yoga.
372
00:28:42.200 --> 00:28:45.119
If you think of yin and yang, most people understand that yang is
373
00:28:45.119 --> 00:28:47.759
how we live most of the time. You got to go, go,
374
00:28:47.759 --> 00:28:48.519
go, You gotta get this done, you got to meet this deadline.
375
00:28:48.559 --> 00:28:52.400
You got to push harder, you
got to lift harder, heavier, you
376
00:28:52.480 --> 00:28:56.160
got to run faster, and we
live in that. Sure. Yin is
377
00:28:56.200 --> 00:29:00.480
exact opposite, So you're going to
come in. The classes are usually about
378
00:29:00.480 --> 00:29:07.759
an hour long, and you change
positions twelve times, so every three to
379
00:29:07.839 --> 00:29:11.000
five minutes, do a little bit
of movement and then we go to a
380
00:29:11.039 --> 00:29:15.359
new position. So it's really a
good deep stretch that gets deep into the
381
00:29:15.400 --> 00:29:21.359
fascial system. It helps you learn
how to self treat. Yeah, very
382
00:29:21.400 --> 00:29:26.400
interesting, which brings me into some
other classes I teach other self treat classes.
383
00:29:27.079 --> 00:29:30.440
I had to do a hip and
back, one neck and shoulder.
384
00:29:30.039 --> 00:29:36.160
I do one called malfascial facial.
However, there's a connection between your face
385
00:29:36.200 --> 00:29:41.400
and your pelvis. Really, every
time I've taught that class, someone's hips
386
00:29:41.400 --> 00:29:45.640
are released. Really have to come
to class. Yeah, that's interesting,
387
00:29:48.160 --> 00:29:52.079
but I can teach other classes.
I can teach other classes depending on like
388
00:29:52.119 --> 00:29:55.440
if I went to a company and
they wanted something specific for their company because
389
00:29:55.440 --> 00:29:57.640
they're having injuries in a certain way, or they want to prevent injuries,
390
00:29:59.440 --> 00:30:03.880
or they want stress management, I
can design classes for a particular population if
391
00:30:03.880 --> 00:30:10.880
that's what they want. Yeah,
you brought up earlier emotions in maya fascia.
392
00:30:11.640 --> 00:30:15.240
Have you ever experienced people just flat
out crying on you? People have
393
00:30:15.319 --> 00:30:21.000
cried, people have laughed, people
have sworn, people have screamed wow.
394
00:30:22.400 --> 00:30:27.359
And it doesn't It doesn't happen all
the time. A lot of times people
395
00:30:27.480 --> 00:30:33.519
just are chill. But we know
the emotion. We talk about it.
396
00:30:33.559 --> 00:30:37.240
Man, I'm so stressed my neck
is killing me, or got a stress
397
00:30:37.279 --> 00:30:41.279
headache, or or man I felt
it like a punch in the gut.
398
00:30:41.759 --> 00:30:48.559
We say these things with emotions and
pain. It's in our language. I
399
00:30:48.559 --> 00:30:52.839
think we just forgot that it lies
there. There's a book called The Body
400
00:30:52.920 --> 00:30:57.319
Keeps the Score, which really talks
about how your body keeps score of whatever
401
00:31:00.079 --> 00:31:03.359
life has happened to you. It's
a really neat book to listen to read.
402
00:31:03.799 --> 00:31:08.920
Interesting, Yeah, listen to or
read nowadays because you got both options.
403
00:31:10.000 --> 00:31:14.920
Yeah, and so let's talk about
TMJ's connection with pelvis. So that's
404
00:31:14.960 --> 00:31:18.799
what I was talking about because that's
class. In the mild fast facial class,
405
00:31:18.799 --> 00:31:23.240
we do something a technique for TMJ. But embryonically, your pelvis and
406
00:31:23.319 --> 00:31:29.759
your jaw were right together, and
then your spine has grown in between it,
407
00:31:30.240 --> 00:31:33.359
so there's a huge component there.
So it's usually if there's a rotation
408
00:31:33.480 --> 00:31:36.799
or there's a problem at the pelvis, there's going to be a problem at
409
00:31:36.839 --> 00:31:41.039
the jaw and in your temporal bones, and it's going to mirror what's happening
410
00:31:41.039 --> 00:31:45.559
at your pelvis. That is so
interesting, and not only in that particular
411
00:31:45.640 --> 00:31:51.240
example, but you and I were
talking off camera about how an injury can
412
00:31:51.279 --> 00:31:56.200
feel like it's in one area and
it's actually in another. Usually where the
413
00:31:56.279 --> 00:32:00.960
problem is is not where the symptoms
are. Is where you're feeling the pain
414
00:32:00.039 --> 00:32:04.559
or feeling the itchen or feeling whatever
it is is usually not where the problem
415
00:32:04.640 --> 00:32:07.240
is. Yeah, that's that's interesting. So if you're you know, you
416
00:32:07.240 --> 00:32:13.680
could be robbing your your your arm
and it actually be your neck. It's
417
00:32:13.720 --> 00:32:15.480
the issue. It could be your
neck. It could come from because of
418
00:32:15.480 --> 00:32:21.119
that that, Yeah, because of
the intricate web. So if you think
419
00:32:21.160 --> 00:32:24.640
of a sweater and then picture at
three D. If you pull a snag
420
00:32:24.720 --> 00:32:35.200
in that sweater, it can go
in four hundred thousand different directions right minimum,
421
00:32:35.720 --> 00:32:38.640
because there's all those different cells,
and it have fingers up, so
422
00:32:39.160 --> 00:32:43.519
you might get a snag like say
your snag is a C section scar,
423
00:32:44.279 --> 00:32:49.079
you might get a snag there.
Well, it can go into organs,
424
00:32:49.160 --> 00:32:54.720
it can wrap around you know,
your digestive system, so things don't flow
425
00:32:54.920 --> 00:33:00.079
the way they need to flow Floapian
tubes. Stuff to flow in and flow
426
00:33:00.119 --> 00:33:05.359
out of there to make a baby. And if the fascial system is tight
427
00:33:05.400 --> 00:33:09.079
on there, it can crimp it
like a hose. But it can also
428
00:33:09.079 --> 00:33:13.400
pull up into your shoulder. A
lot of times I'm working on the soas,
429
00:33:13.440 --> 00:33:15.279
which is a deep muscle in your
back that I get to from your
430
00:33:15.279 --> 00:33:20.319
front, and people feel it in
their neck. They'll feel it or their
431
00:33:20.319 --> 00:33:22.319
face will get hot, or they
feel it in the opposite shoulder, or
432
00:33:22.319 --> 00:33:24.720
they feel it down the other leg. I mean, you can it can
433
00:33:24.759 --> 00:33:30.680
go literally any direction, and it's
just fascinating. Every client's a difference.
434
00:33:34.920 --> 00:33:40.079
Let me ask you this, why
do you do this? Why do you
435
00:33:40.119 --> 00:33:50.079
think you do I want to help
people live until they die I've watched so
436
00:33:50.200 --> 00:33:54.279
many patients over the years, especially
with diabetes. You know, you go
437
00:33:54.319 --> 00:33:58.519
and get the toe taken off,
and you get the below the knee and
438
00:33:58.519 --> 00:34:01.680
then above the knee. Well,
that's something that you can see. But
439
00:34:01.759 --> 00:34:08.199
a lot of us except aging as
something that just should happen. Okay,
440
00:34:08.280 --> 00:34:14.239
well, now I can't run to
the mailbox. I have to walk.
441
00:34:14.519 --> 00:34:15.920
Well, now I can't even walk
all the way to the mailbox. Now
442
00:34:16.039 --> 00:34:20.880
I can't get out of my chair. All that stuff doesn't necessarily have to
443
00:34:20.960 --> 00:34:24.440
happen, or you know what,
I'm just old. I'm going to have
444
00:34:24.480 --> 00:34:30.880
aches and pains. Yeah, a
lot of people say that too, But
445
00:34:30.920 --> 00:34:34.840
it's because that fascial system is thick. You know, when you're a kid
446
00:34:34.880 --> 00:34:37.199
and you fell down the stairs,
you got up and you just went on
447
00:34:37.159 --> 00:34:42.000
right. Once you hit your forties
or your fifties, you sleep funny and
448
00:34:42.000 --> 00:34:44.199
you get out of bed and you
get a kink and you walk crooked for
449
00:34:44.239 --> 00:34:50.280
three weeks. Yeah, but it's
because that that stuff that should be slashy
450
00:34:50.360 --> 00:34:54.400
is thick. So I really want
people to help them to be able to
451
00:34:54.440 --> 00:34:57.440
move and do what they want.
I want them to be able to play
452
00:34:57.480 --> 00:35:02.639
with their grandkids. My mother there
ran It was raining outside, so she
453
00:35:02.760 --> 00:35:07.840
ran from the car to the house
carrying my daughter who was two in her
454
00:35:07.880 --> 00:35:13.400
seventies. Wow, my stepfather at
eighty four, laying on his belly in
455
00:35:13.440 --> 00:35:15.719
the middle of the floor playing a
game with my daughter. She was about
456
00:35:15.719 --> 00:35:19.800
four or five at the time,
and he just gets up. Yeah,
457
00:35:20.239 --> 00:35:24.280
no grunting, no crawling over to
something to pull them himself up. He
458
00:35:24.400 --> 00:35:29.519
just got up. My dad,
he passed away when I was sixteen.
459
00:35:30.519 --> 00:35:35.760
He was always able to do and
had a heart of a child. So
460
00:35:36.360 --> 00:35:39.360
I had great example in my parents. And that's really what I want to
461
00:35:39.360 --> 00:35:45.280
help people do. Oh love that. Tell me about Regina Walker. Okay,
462
00:35:45.400 --> 00:35:51.159
she is the local hero for that
to me. She would come to
463
00:35:51.199 --> 00:35:54.880
see me and we'd go to schedule. Well, I got a schedule around
464
00:35:54.920 --> 00:36:01.599
my personal trainer and my golf,
my golf instruction and whatever. I mean,
465
00:36:01.599 --> 00:36:06.000
it's all these things that she because
she was forever learning, forever growing,
466
00:36:06.519 --> 00:36:12.719
forever keeping herself mobile. And she
did that her whole entire life.
467
00:36:13.400 --> 00:36:16.800
And I had actually heard that she
had a tea time scheduled when she went
468
00:36:16.800 --> 00:36:22.440
into the hospital and had told her
her doctor that you have to get out
469
00:36:22.440 --> 00:36:24.119
because I gotta go. I have
a tea time, I gotta go play
470
00:36:24.159 --> 00:36:29.360
golf. And that's what I want
people to be able to do, is
471
00:36:29.400 --> 00:36:32.320
to live, not just exist,
but to live. There's a difference in
472
00:36:32.360 --> 00:36:37.239
there, there is, yeah,
and people accept existing because I think that's
473
00:36:37.239 --> 00:36:39.519
all there is amen to that.
I agree with that one hundred percent.
474
00:36:39.679 --> 00:36:45.360
And they they don't know any other
way, you know, they like you
475
00:36:45.440 --> 00:36:49.519
say, they feel these pains and
they just assume. You know, this
476
00:36:49.639 --> 00:36:53.360
comes with age and some things do. Look have I slowed down from the
477
00:36:53.400 --> 00:36:59.159
time I was twenty, Yeah,
probably, but that doesn't mean I can't
478
00:36:59.199 --> 00:37:05.039
do and so some cases do better
at this age. You'd be surprised what
479
00:37:05.119 --> 00:37:07.719
some fifty year old people can do
in this world. I mean, you
480
00:37:07.800 --> 00:37:12.679
really would. But you have to
believe it here and you have to do
481
00:37:12.880 --> 00:37:17.559
what you have to listen to your
body and what it's telling you. And
482
00:37:19.760 --> 00:37:22.719
I think I firmly believe that's where
you come in. And you're one of
483
00:37:22.760 --> 00:37:28.360
a very limited group. I can't
say that enough. There's there's not a
484
00:37:28.440 --> 00:37:32.840
whole lot of people that are masters
of what you do. And I've done
485
00:37:32.880 --> 00:37:37.360
it, I can speak to it
and That's what I love about it.
486
00:37:37.360 --> 00:37:45.639
It works, It really does work. Your slogan, forever learning, always
487
00:37:45.679 --> 00:37:52.480
a beginner is very fitting for you
because you are forever learning. We just
488
00:37:52.599 --> 00:37:58.000
discussed that you are someone that in
this field you have always seeked out knowledge
489
00:37:58.679 --> 00:38:02.960
and always a begin so you always
look at everything. If you go you're
490
00:38:04.000 --> 00:38:07.000
starting, If you go with a
beginner mindset, you can learn something.
491
00:38:07.159 --> 00:38:08.320
If you go in that, I
know it all. You're not going to
492
00:38:08.400 --> 00:38:12.039
learn the squat and you're going to
piss everyone off. Yeah, if you're
493
00:38:12.079 --> 00:38:14.760
the smartest person in the room,
you're in the wrong room, right.
494
00:38:14.880 --> 00:38:19.119
That's what someone said to me a
long time ago. And I believe that.
495
00:38:21.440 --> 00:38:25.199
Let's talk about your networking. So
I believe, and I love featuring
496
00:38:25.239 --> 00:38:32.719
people on this show that get back
also, I believe big time in networking.
497
00:38:34.960 --> 00:38:42.159
You remember the Chamber Commerce I am. I've been a member probably eighteen
498
00:38:42.440 --> 00:38:46.079
years. Yeah. Yeah, And
look, if you're a business owner and
499
00:38:46.280 --> 00:38:52.760
you are not investing in your local
Chamber of Commerce here it's the Livingston Paris
500
00:38:52.840 --> 00:38:57.079
Chamber of Commerce, you need to
look into it because they do a lot
501
00:38:57.119 --> 00:39:00.880
of things behind the scenes to help
business owners and uh, and it's a
502
00:39:00.960 --> 00:39:06.880
great. Uh, it's a great
avenue I learned from other business owners and
503
00:39:06.880 --> 00:39:10.360
and uh you're also a member BE
and I Business Networking International. I was
504
00:39:10.400 --> 00:39:14.599
a member of BE and I for
a very long time as well. And
505
00:39:14.800 --> 00:39:20.000
uh, probably the best networking organization
out there in my opinion. Yeah,
506
00:39:20.079 --> 00:39:25.559
if you're looking to build your business, B and I is by far superior
507
00:39:25.599 --> 00:39:30.440
to anything else I've ever done.
The chamber is great for other reasons,
508
00:39:30.519 --> 00:39:37.400
but for building business specifically, BE
and I is what And they have the
509
00:39:37.559 --> 00:39:42.599
education and again I'm a forever learner, but they have the education built in
510
00:39:42.880 --> 00:39:45.400
that helps you really succeed. Yeah, they really do. It is the
511
00:39:45.519 --> 00:39:49.920
cure for the common cold call.
It is. I wish I could say
512
00:39:49.920 --> 00:39:52.639
I coined that phrase. I did
not. Actually I got that from you
513
00:39:52.840 --> 00:39:55.840
years ago, and you still say
that one I do. Yeah, So
514
00:39:58.519 --> 00:40:06.280
you know, one on one treatment
is essentially what you do. We talked
515
00:40:06.559 --> 00:40:10.840
talked earlier about the difference between conventional
I guess you could say physical therapy and
516
00:40:10.960 --> 00:40:15.519
what you're doing where where a lot
of times it's group things. And many
517
00:40:15.599 --> 00:40:19.039
of us have had surgeries and stuff
and they'll say, Okay, you need
518
00:40:19.079 --> 00:40:22.599
to you need to do some physical
therapy for six months. You know,
519
00:40:22.719 --> 00:40:25.280
you had a shoulder surgery and you
go and you left the whatever it is
520
00:40:25.400 --> 00:40:28.960
y'all do I'm not gonna try because
you're gonna be like, oh my gosh,
521
00:40:29.159 --> 00:40:36.719
cutting this out. But you physical
therapy right yourself. So the difference
522
00:40:36.760 --> 00:40:40.360
between that and my faceship primarily is
this is one on one, uh,
523
00:40:42.480 --> 00:40:47.559
and it's very I don't have intense
as the it is. It's intense,
524
00:40:47.719 --> 00:40:54.480
it's a it's uh, it is
absolutely something where even if it's stress related,
525
00:40:54.960 --> 00:41:00.760
it maybe you you don't realize,
uh that that pain in your neck
526
00:41:00.920 --> 00:41:05.760
is caused by stress. Headaches are
caused by stress a lot of times.
527
00:41:05.960 --> 00:41:08.280
Yeah, I don't ever get headaches
except for every now and then, and
528
00:41:08.320 --> 00:41:14.239
every time I get them it is
when I'm stressed. Right, So there's
529
00:41:14.360 --> 00:41:19.039
I work well with traditional physical therapy
because they don't have time in the structure
530
00:41:19.800 --> 00:41:23.840
of the business model of traditional physical
therapy to do hands on for thirty to
531
00:41:23.840 --> 00:41:28.960
forty five to sixty minutes. Yeah, where that's what I do, and
532
00:41:28.960 --> 00:41:31.880
that's what I was gonna You led
me right into that next question, which
533
00:41:32.000 --> 00:41:39.480
was who were good referral partners for
you and traditional physical therapy gyms because I
534
00:41:39.639 --> 00:41:45.800
still believe you've got to move and
you've got to exercise, and so I
535
00:41:45.840 --> 00:41:47.960
do a lot with resolute Fitness.
Yeah, and a lot of the other
536
00:41:49.239 --> 00:41:52.400
people over there. They are a
lot of the other local ERA gyms in
537
00:41:52.639 --> 00:41:55.440
town. I know a lot of
them, so I can help guide people
538
00:41:55.480 --> 00:42:05.280
to what fits their personality and their
location. So those are good referral sources.
539
00:42:05.360 --> 00:42:12.000
Chiropractors because again, they don't have
the time necessarily to spend an hour
540
00:42:12.079 --> 00:42:16.480
with their clients. Yeah, some
chiropractors spend four to six minutes. That's
541
00:42:16.480 --> 00:42:22.719
what they have budgeted. Not all
of them, but quite a few that
542
00:42:22.760 --> 00:42:30.000
I've talked to, so I can
compliment what they're doing. Would you if
543
00:42:30.039 --> 00:42:35.719
someone has anxiety. We talked earlier
about PTSD, which is a form of
544
00:42:35.719 --> 00:42:39.360
anxiety, but let's say some other
sort of anxiety. Maybe they're socially maybe
545
00:42:39.360 --> 00:42:44.000
they have social anxiety. Some people
have that. I'm definitely not one of
546
00:42:44.039 --> 00:42:49.119
those, but some people do.
For those people, your service good.
547
00:42:49.719 --> 00:42:53.239
I've had a couple people that I
can think of right now that have come
548
00:42:53.280 --> 00:42:58.800
to me for other reasons, and
anxiety was not one of them. One
549
00:42:58.880 --> 00:43:01.199
was when I was in traditional therapy, and that's not something you typically go
550
00:43:01.280 --> 00:43:10.960
to traditional physical therapy with. And
their anxiety was noticeably decreased, and when
551
00:43:12.000 --> 00:43:14.960
they were telling me about it,
I realized it was from this treatment.
552
00:43:15.039 --> 00:43:17.000
They didn't necessarily make the connection again, because that's not what you go to
553
00:43:17.360 --> 00:43:24.920
traditional physical therapy for. But I
don't promise that anything we'll get fixed.
554
00:43:27.920 --> 00:43:30.599
But I know, yeah, I
know it can help. I know,
555
00:43:34.079 --> 00:43:37.800
I know it can help. Yeah, very good. So we do fun
556
00:43:37.880 --> 00:43:44.639
facts on this shit. And when
I were at yours, I actually love
557
00:43:44.719 --> 00:43:49.000
them. I loved the first one, and I want we do these just
558
00:43:49.039 --> 00:43:52.400
so people can kind of get to
know somebody outside of just their business and
559
00:43:52.800 --> 00:43:58.599
learn a little bit about their poor
personality. And I asked you, if
560
00:43:58.639 --> 00:44:00.760
you had a yacht, what would
you name it? And you said,
561
00:44:00.880 --> 00:44:07.199
enjoying the journey. That's perfect.
Yep, that's perfect, And that's you're
562
00:44:07.199 --> 00:44:09.920
on a journey now, right Yep. I actually had had T shirt made
563
00:44:10.039 --> 00:44:14.920
with it when I did my triathlon
because I knew I wasn't going to win,
564
00:44:15.280 --> 00:44:17.400
and it was all about just having
fun while I was I was doing
565
00:44:17.920 --> 00:44:22.760
doing the whole thing. Love that
joined the journey as much and as much
566
00:44:22.800 --> 00:44:25.159
as I love that answer, I
loved your next one. I asked you
567
00:44:25.199 --> 00:44:28.880
what were you? What were what
did you want to be when you were
568
00:44:28.920 --> 00:44:31.320
like twelve? And you said,
I think I was in middle school.
569
00:44:31.360 --> 00:44:37.679
All I was thinking about was clothes, shoes, and boys very good.
570
00:44:37.719 --> 00:44:43.239
And that is probably most people at
that age, I believe it or not.
571
00:44:43.559 --> 00:44:46.199
At one point. I remember back
when I was twelve thirteen, somewhere
572
00:44:46.199 --> 00:44:50.079
around there, I wanted to be
a weather man. Could you see me
573
00:44:50.119 --> 00:44:54.480
as a weather many? Tornado is
coming, everybody gets sheltered. I don't
574
00:44:54.480 --> 00:45:02.360
know. Weather to me has always
intrigued men's yes go for I asked you
575
00:45:04.159 --> 00:45:07.480
if you had any superpower, what
would it be if you could have any
576
00:45:07.480 --> 00:45:12.000
superpower? And you said, and
this did not surprise me. You said,
577
00:45:12.039 --> 00:45:16.719
to strengthen my intuition. So I
find this. You can tell a
578
00:45:16.760 --> 00:45:22.559
lot about somebody. When you ask
them that question, they say, and
579
00:45:22.880 --> 00:45:24.599
uh, you know, some people
say I want to I would like to
580
00:45:24.599 --> 00:45:31.320
be invisible, or I would like
to fly. But typically, and this
581
00:45:31.559 --> 00:45:37.559
is not something that is told to
anybody in advance, people in the health
582
00:45:37.840 --> 00:45:45.760
care industry always answer similarly, so
it's always something that it's carrying that's something
583
00:45:45.880 --> 00:45:52.639
that is an unselfish superpower, right. I mean I wanted to fly you
584
00:45:52.719 --> 00:45:57.679
know some mind. I mean I
just wanted to fly around. But your
585
00:45:57.679 --> 00:46:01.079
healthcare people typically it's more deep.
I guess you could say, when so
586
00:46:01.320 --> 00:46:05.840
you're intuition, you want to you
would strengthen that, and that would be
587
00:46:06.039 --> 00:46:08.360
that would be a great thing for
anybody to have. I asked you about
588
00:46:08.360 --> 00:46:12.559
traveling, and you answer it just
how I thought you would. You said,
589
00:46:12.559 --> 00:46:17.239
why lamit myself? I love Sedona
BAF. I've never been to BAF,
590
00:46:17.280 --> 00:46:21.239
but my wife has It's beautiful.
Yes, that's what she says.
591
00:46:21.320 --> 00:46:25.559
Canada and uh, never been there. I've been to Alaska and that's beautiful,
592
00:46:25.960 --> 00:46:30.079
but she tells me BAF is gorgeous. Uh. If distance wasn't an
593
00:46:30.119 --> 00:46:35.920
option. And you and I share
both of these places, Ireland and Iceland,
594
00:46:36.639 --> 00:46:39.079
and I actually want to travel to
both of those both, especially Ireland.
595
00:46:39.119 --> 00:46:43.400
I don't know what it is about
Ireland, but it just it's beautiful.
596
00:46:43.480 --> 00:46:47.119
Yeah, it's green. Love it. You talked a little bit earlier
597
00:46:47.119 --> 00:46:52.400
about how people can go about booking
with you Cheryl Jean dot Com, which
598
00:46:52.400 --> 00:46:58.840
I'm gonna link in this podcast.
In the description and uh, so you
599
00:46:58.840 --> 00:47:01.480
can go there. It'll give you
all the information you need on setting up
600
00:47:01.480 --> 00:47:06.679
an appointment and trying it out for
yourself. Yes, anything else you want
601
00:47:06.679 --> 00:47:10.840
to mention, No, thank you
for this opportunity. And this is something
602
00:47:10.880 --> 00:47:15.960
you've had to experience. Yeah,
you alluded to it earlier. It's hard
603
00:47:15.960 --> 00:47:19.400
to put into words. It's right
brain and left brain is the words,
604
00:47:19.960 --> 00:47:24.719
so it's right brain work. It's
feeling. So people often don't have words,
605
00:47:25.280 --> 00:47:29.800
so we tried to put some of
this into words, and you still
606
00:47:29.840 --> 00:47:34.400
just have to experience it ready to
get the full effect. Yes, and
607
00:47:35.039 --> 00:47:37.000
we want to tell them about your
upcoming events before we get out of here.
608
00:47:37.639 --> 00:47:42.599
Okay, so tell us about that. I typically have yin yoga going
