Professionals and the general population are ALL excited!

On 8/4/2023, Dr. Shirley Sahrmann's episode was released on the Tim Ferriss Show.  Since millions of people listen to his podcast, the idea of using movement as medicine is buzzing.  After only 3 days of release, the YouTube video already has 12,000 views.  As of March 2025, it has over 56,890 views.  Incredible!!  It shows you how many people are suffering from low back pain, and how nicely Shirley explained Tim's pain issue.  Check out the YouTube episode, and Shirley's now not-so-secret exercise routine.  Podcast is great but YouTube videos allow us to appreciate the alignment and movement patterns.  Enjoy!
