#3 - Integrating Fitness into Clinical Practice with Dr. Tom Teter, Part 1

Integrating Fitness into Clinical Practice
FAKTR Podcast Episode 3 - Part 1
Presented by Tom Teter, DC developer of FAKTR’s Rehab to Fitness
EPISODE SUMMARY
In this episode, we delve into a topic that is at the forefront of many modern practices -- how do I implement fitness into my current clinical practice?
All too often, practitioners don’t take the leap to incorporate more fitness training into their patient treatment and post-treatment offerings due to lack of equipment, lack of know-how or both. Dr. Tom Teter aims to change this dynamic and break down the barriers practitioners face when deciding if incorporating fitness is right for their practice.
In this two-part episode, we will discuss the body of evidence and research that supports fitness as an adjunct to therapy, defining fitness, rehabilitation and the grey area between the two along with the reasons that rehab systems fail and the six stages of care.
We will discuss how fitness isn’t just about improving capacity, but about improving overall health and how to develop a continuum of care from rehab to fitness and how to determine where your patient falls in the spectrum.
