Today Katie speaks with a previous guest we’ve had named David Lemke, who we have described as a wizard in body work. He’s a technical wizard using a method of technology called Surface Electromyography (SEMG), EEG, and various other things. David grew up in a cold place, trained as a bodyworker, was injured as a young athlete, became an EMG technician and describes himself now as a body explorer with a compass who has treated, assessed, and helped tens of thousands of people from very high performance athletes to your everyday people.

Your core is your whole central processor and soles of the feet are just as critical, if not one of the most critical input sites to your autonomic nervous system. I like to compare wearing shoes to having your phone in airplane mode and you’re wondering why you’re not sending and receiving calls, but you’ve actually turned off a key antenna. The soles of your feet are how your whole system knows whether you’re upright or not.” 10:26
