This picture was taken a while ago. My sons are on the treatment table today—not as patients, but as future healers.

I told them: “You can do what I do—and if you want, you can do even more.”

Whether it’s through hands-on care like Dad… or as a DO (Doctor of Osteopath) or NP (Naturopathic Physician) who can prescribe, inject, or even operate—your potential is limitless.

This is what legacy looks like. 💙

And if you’re looking for care that’s rooted in skill AND heart, we’d love to help you or your family reach your full potential too.

Reading doesn’t have to be for work or school. Pick something you actually enjoy. A book, article, blog, or anything. Set a timer for 20 minutes. Let yourself read without distractions or the pressure to finish. It’s okay if you stop after that.

This is about giving your brain a break. You might be surprised how refreshed you feel after. Just 20 minutes of quiet can help clear mental noise and reset your focus.

"I can’t say enough about Dr. Joel! His hands, along with his deep understanding of the human body, work wonders. He’s been treating me for almost 5 years and has helped me heal from a typical back spasm to a numb left foot which lasted 3 days. His therapy and suggested exercises prevented this injury from possibly becoming permanent and I deeply thank him for that.

Another session consisted of working on some old scar tissue on my right leg. It had been attached to the bone after a surgery for over 35 years and he felt that if we could detach it and loosen it from the bone my therapies would have even better results. So I agreed and let me just say that it was an overwhelming session! I cried and not so much from the pain(which was intense) but more from a strange sensation of losing or changing something that had been a part of me for so long! I was weeping uncontrollably like a baby. The emotional burst was almost surreal and the release was so satisfying. I guess we all have emotional baggage that we’re not even aware of and something like this session can just trigger and open the flood gates without any warning with an extremely positive outcome.

Trust me, Dr. Joel has a deep understanding how your whole body(physically and emotionally) is connected. Do yourself a favor. Seek his services, you won’t regret it!"

Start or end your day by stepping outside and watching the sky. Sit, stand, or stretch as the light changes. A short pause like this helps your body slow down and reset. Being in nature can lower stress and support recovery.

You don’t need a full routine. Just time to notice where you are, how you feel, and what your body needs.

"Today I had wonderful appointment at Total Potential Physical Therapy.
Dr. Joel Kim really listened to my underlining physical problems. He taught me a more efficient way to walk. I felt balanced on my feet...which I haven't felt in a long time. He also worked on my rt. knee and loosened up my whole leg. As I left, I could really feel a difference. That's after one visit! I highly recommend Dr. Joel Kim at Total Physical Therapy."

Animals can lower your stress levels. If you have a pet, take a few minutes to hang out with them. If not, try watching a few cute animal videos online. It’s a quick way to feel calmer.

Pets don’t judge or expect anything from you. They just show up. That kind of presence is powerful. So take a moment and just enjoy it.

"In October of 2015, I had total knee replacement and I never obtained full movement of the knee. I went to physical therapy on and off for at least 4 years. There was some improvement but I obtained 80 degrees flexion of the knee, normal flexion is about 120 degrees. In October 2021, I had knee revision surgery to reposition the knee pad and remove scar tissue. I still did not get more than 80 degree flexion of the knee. I continued physical therapy for another 2 years. I still did not get any more improvement and I was convinced my knee was just not going to improve.

I was at a party and complaining about my knee when a guest told me, “Before you give up, trying going to see Dr. Joel Kim.” She said he worked miracles. So I made an appointment with Dr. Joel.

On my first appointment with Dr. Joel, he started manipulating my head and neck. I am laying on the examination table and thinking what a big mistake this is. I wanted to scream, “It’s my knee, not my head that needs help!” After about 45 minutes, Dr. Joel asked me to bend my knee and I had 100 degree flexion. I was amazed and overjoyed with the improvement! Needless to say, I have been with Dr. Joel since that first appointment.

Dr. Joel’s approach to physical therapy is different than any other clinic I’ve been to. The sessions are one-on-one and he treats your whole body, not just the affected the area. He explains everything he is doing and why it’s important. He builds a relationship with you. Dr. Joel obviously wants to get his patients out of pain but he also wants you to be healthy. His whole body approach gives you the tools and information to live a healthy pain-free life.

I would and have referred people to Dr. Joel. He is a great physical therapist and a very learned and caring person. If you are looking for a physical therapist who truly cares. Dr. Joel is who you want."

Your phone probably has thousands of random photos. Pick one small batch today and move them into albums. You’ll make it easier to find what you need later. Plus, you’ll come across moments you forgot about.

There is no need to do it all, just start. A little digital clean-up can feel surprisingly good. It’s a low-effort way to clear clutter and create a more useful photo space on your phone.

Whether at work or home, posture is prevalent to all individuals. Everyone has a unique posture, however there are general rules one can follow to improve posture, alleviate pain and feel refreshed when sitting for long periods of time. Things like keeping your lower body stable, activating your core and staying active are all ways to adjust your posture positively. Back pain, headaches and stiffness may occur if you have bad posture, but are mostly preventative if you keep these rules in mind.

"I’m not one to put out reviews, but Dr. Joel is an exception.
I was hesitant to yet go to another therapist to fix my shoulder and my elbow which had been hurting for more than a year, and frustrated after seeing other therapist and had not seen any results. My sister told me that one of her patients recommended Dr. Joel so highly, that the patient who almost had to get surgery done, didn’t have to go through the surgery after seeing and having her sessions done by Dr. Joel....Thanks to Dr. Joel, I’m almost to a point of getting back to playing my sport which I love, volleyball. My shoulder and elbow are now at 95% fixed. I still have one more session to go and to be at 100%. I have to admit, he is sooo different, and not like any “sobador”, throughout your sessions, it will sure seem that what he is doing which is just touching certain muscles for a certain time, among other things, will not fix your problem, but believe me, it sure has for me. He knows his material so well, he is very knowledgeable, very positive, likable, and very pleasant person to have as your therapist.
I highly recommend to go check out Dr. Joel Kim. He game me a complimentary first visit to see if I qualified to be treated by him. I then decided of how many sessions l would need to fix the problem I was having.
I believe you owe yourself that chance to at least go check him out and see if this will be something for you."

Digital distractions, although not uncommon, can certainly harm your productivity levels. Fortunately, now there are apps, like Taskfulness and Forest that limit these temptations while you focus on what’s important. Out of sight, out of mind. Put your phone in another room, try noise-cancelling headphones and mute notifications. Don’t let the desire to be connected to more simulating objects win against your objectives to finish your work and be productive.
