If the hinge is misaligned a little bit and I keep opening and closing the door, damage is going to start to occur on that hinge because the metal is rubbing too hard on one side. It's not fully balanced. They're properly balanced. You'll look at the hinge and go, oh my God, this is all messed up. And in the body, what you would do is you would...

fix the hinge or fix the way that the door moves in the hinge. And then the body heals the hinge. Now with the door, you'd have to replace the hinge because it doesn't heal itself. But this is what happens in joints oftentimes. If you look at the knee, for example, right? You have the lower leg flexing and extending with the upper leg. And then you have a kneecap that,

that slides and floats above that. And if it's not moving the way it's supposed to, then you start to get wear and tear that over, that overcomes your body's ability to heal. And so you start to develop a chronic inflammation and pain. And you start to see things like, you know, chondromalacia under the kneecap or whatever. Same thing with the joint. The joint is very complex. Excuse me.

The shoulder joint is very complex joint. So you have like the humerus moving, but then you have the scapula moving along with it. And if it doesn't move the way it's supposed to, you get wear and tear that occurs. And fixing it with surgery doesn't fix the problem. The problem is the joint isn't moving the way it's supposed to. What makes joints move? Muscle. Muscle.

So what we can do is we can change how the muscles work. We can strengthen them in appropriate ways. Change what's, for lack of a better term, recruitment patterns, right? How the muscles work together.

That's right. So like, you know, frozen shoulder is a very common one. Frozen shoulder gets really nasty where you literally can't lift your arm much. Well, physical therapy solves that problem many times. Rotator cuff inflammation.

Lots and lots and lots of rotator cuff surgeries happen. And many, many times, good correctional exercise can solve the issue and allow the shoulder to heal. Bursitis in the hips. Bursitis in the hips is another one. Or cyst in the knee, Baker's cyst with knee function. I've worked with... like a carpal tunnel and a shoulder, like rotator cuff based inflammation.

Like those two right there was so common, especially around here in Silicon Valley. People will come in with this pain and it got to the point where, you know, after 20 years of training people. Yeah. I felt very confident that we would positively affect the pain.
