ReVITALize Rehab Club

ReVITALize Rehab Club Are you interested in a holistic alternative to medications/pain killers, injections, and unnecessar

ReVITALize Rehab Club is a clinic called a Club because we understand that when you are in chronic pain or health issues, there are moments when you feel unheard, just to be given medications. This basic premise has made us the go-to clinic in Southern California that deals with complex cases where all tests came back negative, leading doctors to prescribe more medications. We can get you back to being active (again) without medications, injections, and unnecessary surgery especially if you are in your 30's, 40's, 50's or 60's.

There’s lots of talk about how the digestive system and the health of it can impact the beauty of your skin, mental well-being, and having the nutrients to fuel tendon, muscles and connective tissue growth / rebuilding.

What happen if you try to improve your gut health and nothing is changing or it continues to get worse.

There’s one thing that I wish more people looking for performance, pain reduction, and gut healing should know….

Your respiratory system share the same entrance as your digestive system.

Your respiratory system is more than your lungs, but includes your skull, sinus, jaw, throat, and rib cage.

So if you have
🔸sleep apnea
🔹snoring
🔸jaw clenching
🔹sigh often
🔸trouble getting breath of air
🔹fatigue
🔸brain fog
🔹waking up with dry eyes or sore throat
🔸sinus troubles, thinking it’s allergies
🔹just feeling like you are trying too hard to get gains at the gym…

Try looking at how you can open and close your airway when you talk, chew, drink, and move.

I tell people at my clinic…
🔹 Strength is important, but if you’re not delivering enough oxygen for the activity or your day / night, you will have a hard time exchanging that strength for that much needed oxygen.

When you eat and chew, the ability to chew and alternate with nasal breathing relaxes the connective tissue from head, throat, to rib cage… and even pelvis!

Notice if you’re scarfing your food and gasping air through your mouth or holding your breath.

Notice if you’re taking and able to exchange with nasal respiration.

Lung is number one in my system.

Many will get a protocol to make their lungs more powerful and to be able to exchange air flow more efficiently.

Then we simultaneously coordinate this with basic and athletic movements.

I’ve seen countless clients who are left to figure out their healing on their own, as it’s too complex for the doctors.

This simple idea has brought many back to life.

Test and practice the integration of your respiratory and digestive system.

Movement reinforces your inner health. Working on your inner health opens up more doors for your body to explore.

Hi Everyone! Everything is super connected within the body. Everything funnels towards how our body moves.

Knowing this can help you to understand why your pain, injury, or health is still nagging.

Know this can help you to avoid surgery, unwanted medications, and make better decisions for your health.

The potential to get better and be ReVITALize is truly GREAT when you realize what the body can do for you.

Everyone that I work with ends up knowing how…

(G) ut health is all about getting the nutrients to help you to have the fuel to heal and move.

(E) nergy health, aka hormones, endocrine, and metabolic system, is about managing the fuel to help us to heal and move.

(M) ovement health is obviously the Orthopedic and Sports medicine Physical Therapy and Performance Specialization background. Every structure in the body is connected through something called the connective tissue aka fascia!

(M) ind health. To use a brain based approach. How we learn, process our experiences, and knowing our subconscious traps can be truly the key to unlocking the suffering.

(S) leep health. This is where most of our ability to recover happens. Airway management is crucial so you can get both good deep and REM sleep. Plus no one likes to snore or drool when they sleep.

There you have. The GEMMS Method.

We don’t believe there’s one thing to fixing a pain or musculoskeletal problem.

You need fuel to rebuild tendons, nerves, and joints that need attention.

You have to be super specific in your rehab and keep challenging those specificity.

Many people deal with lower back pain, sacroiliac, or hip pain.

We love

We understand rotational movements need to be EARNED. We love research on how to achieve this.

Lastly as part of recovery medicine, we value the lungs and tremendously.

This is why we started the GEMMS Method.

(E)nergy as in hormones
(M.M) movement and mind
(S)leep health

Because digestive and respiratory share the mouth, sinus, and throat as a common pathway, we love the work of and

But YOU WANT TO KNOW THE SECRET TRUTH OF HEALING?

YOU need to be the centerpiece of this conversation. 💕

Pain sucks but it helps us have many birthdays!

When you understand how protective our mind is towards this idea, you can also understand why it is easier to be

🔹hyper alert (OCD, anxious, insomnia)
🔸 gain weight (aka store fat for possible food droughts)
🔹 be competitive by feeling anger or wanting strangers to NOT do well
🔸 FOMO and having self doubt

These feelings and thoughts allow us to preserve ourselves. So does staying in comfort.

Pain is good at amplification of the feelings within the said list above by making us stay more within the comfort zone.

So in my Mind Approach book, one of the main theme is to learn why an integration of your mind can set de-tangle and unlock the suffering that pain like to do to us!

We can deal with pain and ignore it.

But the suffering of pain comes from the disintegration of the mind. We become rigid and fixed.

This allows us to NOT play offense which allow our body to explore movements that nourish our joints, muscles, nerves and organs.

If we move less and feel stiff and tensed, we can’t get more hurt, right?

We will survive and have another birthday. The neurology behind pain, mental health, weight loss, and performance are deep rooted in this subconscious concept.

Take action (offense) and less re-action (defense).

Once you understand this, you can rewrite your story!

Second concept in my Mind Approach Book is that personal development.

I don’t know about you, but taking actions that feel uncomfortable is not easy.

It takes time and an encouraging conversation with my inner self. No one talks about how getting out of true suffering of pain requires personal development.

We get this and why we spend more effort making sure our clients grows and gains the tools to become more integrated… to ease their pain.

So so many people have asked me to talk more about sleep and how to get better sleep.

Fixing sleep problem is more than a trick here or there.

Remember sleep is a reflection of your sinus and mouth! I can add eyes and era but that’s too crazy. 🙃

Your mouth splits into lung airway system and esophagus digestive system.

So you cannot say digestive problem is not a source of sleeping problem.

Your mouth is a reflection of your ability to get energy and express YOU!!!

On that note, my order of thinking.

Certain movement patterns and face-neck posture can reveal a sleeping problem SO…

1. Make sure mouth, throat, chest, and pelvis are not holding tension so air can move well. ➡️ help it with hands on work and a sprinkle of “weird” exercises 😅.

SOME things I mobilize and ensure it can “move”.
💥back and roof of throat
✨tongue, hyoid bone, and shape of bite
⚡️esophagus and trachea
💫 middle and deep Cervical fascia and relationship to heart, lung, and digestive system.
🌈 Sinus and relationship to skull bones
🌏 Shoulder, shoulder blades, collar bone, and rib cage to diaphragm connection.

2. We use sleep to process our day, life, relationships with ourselves and with others, hardships, and even the precious moments.

We also need to feel safe to sleep.

Did you know certain stages of sleep are made for tissues healing and another for emotional healing?

It’s too common to hide and suppress what we don’t like of our day, ourselves, etc. Then wonder why we cannot sleep.

You are not a reflection of every waking thoughts. You are human. And our minds love love to make sense of everything and will make 💩 up in doing so.

This is why I recommend many to use art, scribbling, or anything abstract to not “hide”. You are not what you draw, write, and such too.

It’s just an outlet. A necessary outlet nowadays.

3. Lastly, micronutrient to ensure you sleep, ease inflammation, and rebuild for tomorrow.

This is a deeply complex topic and fun to work on.

SYSTEM is crucial for CONSISTENT success.

A short post won’t do this justice but let me try. Start at the bottom of both columns.

The left is for movement and rehab.

The right helps us to manage the fuel and inner workings to sustain healthy movement and well being.

🔶 Weight training is great and solve many pain issues. But if the strength lags a bit when you are trying to pick up a pencil or not reactive when you trip, you may be hurt. This is where REFLEXIVE strength can help.

🔶 You can practice all the sports technique drills or rehab exercises all day and wonder why you still get hurt. This is where the feeling of struggling through a weight training routine can allow your body to progress and match your lifestyle better. TENDON and SPINAL strength.

🔶 You can do Hypervolt, foam rolling, massages, AND stretching, but if you get light headed when getting up too fast or get super winded going up a few flight of stairs, then your body cannot bring blood and oxygen to the STIFF body parts.

🔶 Chronic inflammation can be your recurrent sinus infection, UTI, sore throat, bleeding gums, “seasonal” allergies, bloating, toe fungus, frequent feeling of anxiousness, trouble sleeping, or need for a pick me up. The list is much much longer in this modern world.

These are what we call sub clinical symptoms. We believe all doctors care, but insurance dictate doctors to act only when we are REALLY REALLY sick.

🔶 Well, chronic inflammation breaks down our connective tissue so we have a harder time rebuilding tendons, muscles, and such.

🔶 So we take supplements we hear will help or “detox” to shake off the sluggishness, but our body needs cellular energy to even detox! If your detox pathways are slow or sluggish, you can feel sicker as your body has no where to eliminate detox “waste”.

🔶 Your brain regulates pain. This requires proper neurotransmitter production and need glucose to get into your cells. (Blood sugar)

My daughter got her ears pierced this weekend. Got me thinking of the idea that excitement and anxiety comes from the same hormone.

Both are a form of too much energy.

The filter 📸 and purpose results in excitement rainbow 🌈 or anxiety 🌧.

So my daughter was super happy to pierce her ears. She can be like her peers at school and was driven to “grow up” 😭.

This filter allowed her to dampen pain and she walked away a champ!

This was in the backdrop of everyone warning her that it was going to hurt.

Purpose and a “happy” end goal can help you shift biochemical patterns within your body.

The longer you have been dealing with pain or always feeling anxiousness, you might have to keep reminding yourself daily, even hourly, or this end goal.

You have to really believe this so much that every cells of your body will begin to work in your favor.

This does not mean that you do not have to show up daily, work hard, nourish your body with healing foods, and such.

Again, the root of your belief about yourself and experience will allow you to be more excited and hopeful OR anxious and fearful.

Hopefully this helps you to begin to dream that the possibilities are possible.

Our motto is to DREAM BIG, MOVE BIG!

This is what my patient wrote down and asked if I can look at this!

She is in her 80’s and doing what she can to keep her independence!

These are core principles for everyone. Each statement has profound value.

You can do wonders even with long-standing pain, “horrible” arthritis, “need to have back surgery” cases... you get the drift.

Let me know which one gave you an ah ha moment.

Let me know which one needs more clarification.

I love memories of simple things. It brought tears to me today.

What does it mean to be present nowadays in a world that is truly demanding on us...

😡 You need to do this.
😩 You have to be this.
😤 You need to have this.

Being present to me is to be able to witness the simple pleasures, not the grand pleasure.

Being present is to allow my senses to nourish me instead of demand of me.

If you’ve been following me, I educate the impact of our senses or lack of senses of touch, hear, sight, smell, interception, and taste as a means that drives our subconscious movement systems.

Are you feeling held back? Or can move forward towards opportunities easily?

Being present is to feel emotions of ALL types within my body.

Anyways, my son held my baby girl hands and simply said “We are going to school today.”. And this brought tons of emotions to myself.

It was super simple. It was the memory of a brother taking care of his sister.

It was a memory of life happening.

It was the memory of two bonds speaking, within the scenery of nature and the hustle of 1st day of school.

Trust me, the world tugs at my shoulders and I feel like I have to chase demands, but I have clarity on what grounds me.

This is truly important when you feel lost, held back, or find yourself stuck in a pattern you can’t change.

What grounds you?

What is your favorite memory of this past weekend?

Try to practice listening and gazing at your life instead of reacting.

Feel your breath and heart beating within your body. Like truly FEEL it.

In the midst of the ocean of logic, thoughts, demands, reasoning, and lists, you will find this miracle.

A miracle gave you that feeling of breath and heart beating.

This is why in my functional medicine perspective, the heart and lung is our FIRST priority.

Isn’t that cool?

One L❤️ve!

Your brain and gut are deeply connected. Your muscles and joints help to reflect this dialogue.

I wish a muscle stiffness, pain, or performance outcome is purely just a muscle or joint thingy.

Trust me, me and 1000s of other legit medical or fitness would agree that what we learn in the books don’t always reflect musculoskeletal reality.

Hence, I’ve learned that our body has sensors that helps clue us in to what is happening on the inside.

Our digestive system has a whole ecosystem or massive community or bacteria and other micro-organism.

What you eat and how you live your life impacts by feeding and nourishing this community or not.

The result is that they produce metabolites for their work. Waste or productive nutrients for our body.

36% or the metabolites made by the gut microbiome are in your bloodstream.

This travels to impact other systems. They travel to your brain and your brain takes these info and ACT accordingly.

They make neurotransmitters and neuromodulators. These travel back down and impact hormones and a chain reactions to other systems.

You cannot move without a brain. Actually you can but I’m not going to get super technical.

Have you felt your mood, concentration, coordination, control of movements, and energy regulation self sabotaging your exercise routine?

Healing your gut will help your mind. Healing your gut will help your muscles, joints, and performance.

Just food for thought. Everything you out in your mouth and on your skin trickles down into your digestive system.

Take care of our outside and inside community!
