Aren’t you tired of going to Doctors or Therapists who don’t CARE?

💊 Doctors who are quick to prescribe 5 different pills

🏃‍♂️Doctors who are trying to rush to their next patient.

🥱 Doctors who don’t VALUE YOU as a patient.

We have all been there.

But that’s not who BAREFOOT is.

So whether it’s the hugs, the hyperactive friendliness, the jokes, or the warm cup of coffee waiting for you, we want Barefoot to be your 2nd home! 🏡

A place where you can let your shoulders drop or your body exhale.

One of our favorite things about the space we hold is having patients stop by for a prescription chocolate almond refill or to vent to an open heart without having a treatment visit in the schedule.

They just show up cuz they like it here. 😊

Even if you don’t have a visit on the schedule, come say hi to some open hearted humans .with.kate

❤️Like this post to show some love to the Barefoot Heal Team 6 family! 😁

It’s not your fault that you’re still in chronic pain up to this point.

You didn’t know better.

I know it’s hard for you to trust another doctor after you’ve already seen 3, 5, 10, or even 20 doctors.

All you’ve heard are empty promises.

You question whether you can trust anyone.

You wonder if it’s even possible to have permanent relief.

That’s why we work so damn hard to share as many of our patient success stories as we can. We currently have over 300 across YouTube, Facebook and Google.

I know it’s relatively expensive to see us.

Our healthcare system has conditioned most people to feel entitled to getting their health problems solved.

And you have bills to pay.

Here’s the thing.

Do you realize how expensive it will be to not get fixed ASAP?

When the pain gets worse, which it’s guaranteed to get worse with time as you age, it’ll get so bad that you’ll start throwing whatever money you have at the problem.

And by then, you’ll have lived years above our 60 year threshold that will make it hard for a non-surgical like us to help you.

You’ll try surgery, shots, or fancy new technologies@and hope for a miracle.

But by their nature, they won’t work the way you want them to.

Because your joints are too far gone. Too degenerated and arthritic.

That’s why we tell you that our ideal target age is between 30-60 years old.

You currently have enough adhesion and minimal encounter degeneration that we can still make a serious dent in your pain.

Now, you know.

The ball is in your court.

We can’t pick up the phone and call us for you.

You have to decide that 2026 is the year you finally get the relief you deserve.

Our promise is to see, hear, and treat you like the beautiful human you are.

One of of the statements on our mission statement is to treat you like our family.

Because you are.

👉👉Comment “pain” if you want to see if you qualify to finally get permanent relief in our Denville, NJ office - 45 minutes from New York City.

Learning new things is fun and exciting!

When we post our treatment videos explaining why removing adhesion from the femoral nerve in the abdomen is one of the most important tissues to treat to fix chronic low back pain and sciatica, many people like to tell us:

“This is a sham”

“You can’t possibly feel that nerve”

“You should go to jail for lying to people.”

Because treating this tissue is a TOP PRIORITY for fixing chronic low back pain or sciatica, we post these treatments a lot to show pain sufferers what they’re missing.

Here’s an image of a human hand holding a probe under 2 branches of the femoral nerve.

Note: this is a variant.

Notice how thick the nerves are relative to the probe and the hand.

The nerve is relatively gigantic.

According to “A Morphometric Study of the Femoral Nerve in the Thigh Region of the Malaysian Cadavers,” (2024) researchers examined 78 lower limbs.

The average width of the femoral nerve under the inguinal ligament (at the front of the hip) was 7.67 mm or .767 cm.

A pencil is 1 cm thick.

As the biggest nerve in the front of the body, this nerve is 2/3 the size of a pencil.

providers find and feel nerves way tinier than this one.

Finding this nerve for us is like having a 5 year old find his nose by touching it.

I feel bad for chronic low back pain sufferers who are seeing a pain doctor or therapist who doesn’t know how to find and feel this nerve.

➡️➡️ SHARE this post with someone who had chronic low back pain, has seen at least 3 doctors and therapists without relief, and really wants help.

👉👉 COMMENT below “pain” and your location and we can see if there is an provider near you.

BAROMETRIC PRESSURE WARNING ⚠️

I’ve made a conscious effort to always warn you guys when we’ve got big shifts in barometric pressure on the way. I’ve been doing this a long time, and after living with someone who suffered from chronic migraines for over six years, I can tell you there’s definitely a correlation between the weather and our health. I’m honestly amazed more people don’t talk about it, so I do. 🙂

It’s absolutely gorgeous out today with temps well above average, but a cold front moves through late tonight into early Wednesday morning. Expect gusty winds with it, and a drop back into the 50s and 60s for Wednesday.

Wednesday afternoon into Wednesday night, a very strong mountain wave develops, winds could easily gust over 70 mph above 7,000 ft across the foothills, the Divide, and Wyoming. This could also extend into the San Juans, Sangre de Cristos, and the Raton Mesa, with strong southerly winds along portions of I-25 and the eastern plains lingering into Thursday and Friday.

That’s all ahead of a stronger cold front this weekend that’ll knock us down into the 40s and 50s and bring a shot of snur to the northern mountains, mainly north of I-70 and into Wyoming, on Thursday and again Saturday.

Now for my not-a-doctor disclaimer 😅:

Given our dry, semi-arid climate, I’ve learned that when I drink plenty of water, especially water mixed with about a tablespoon of Celtic salt, I stay hydrated longer. I try to get at least 60oz a day, keep my body moving to reduce inflammation, and if I feel a headache creeping in, I grab the Excedrin because it’s the only thing that stops mine in its tracks.

Everyone’s different, migraines, arthritis, fibromyalgia, you name it, but the one common thread I’ve noticed is that barometric pressure swings make symptoms worse when you’re dehydrated or sleep-deprived.

So over the next few days, the pressure is going to yo-yo. If you know how your body responds, start taking precautions now. And if you don’t, read through the comments, you might find someone who shares your experience.

You can’t stop the barometric pressure from changing… but you can respond to it. So consider this your heads up, Besties 💧💊💤
