Hip Hinge Part 2 (dead lifts, squats, kettlebell swings) Monday, September 20, 2021

I grew up surrounded by health care. My grandfather was a medical doctor. My father was a chiropractor who taught me the trigger point technique I practice today. I specialize in a specific form of chiropractic trigger point therapy called The Nimmo Technique, which I teach at New York Chiropractic College in upstate New York.

I have been specializing in nerves, muscles, joints and pain for the past 18 years. With the backing of a Masters in Nutrition, I counsel patients about pain and inflammation reduction by helping them to make simple modifications to their diet and exercise. I find it fascinating how nutrition and exercise both differently affect how slowly, or quickly, we age.

I've treated most types of people and their injuries, from pro football players at the Super Bowl to ballet dancers, boxers at the Olympic training center, desk jockeys and weekend warriors.

I know how to manage pain, and how to keep it from flaring back up. The more pain you are in, the less you move. The less you move, the more pain you are in. My goal is to keep people moving and feeling as good as possible, for as long as possible. I focus on how to exercise to reduce pain. You should feel better from exercising, not worse.

I practice what I preach. I have competed in several 100-mile mountain bike races, on a one geared bike called a single speed. I practice yoga daily, I regularly weight lift and use kettlebells, and I watch what I eat.
