I was getting a new storage unit 2 days ago and noticed these cards at one of the desks. When we were wrapping up, I was handed one and asked to give them a Google review. I scanned the QR code and in literally less than a minute they had a 5 star review.
Of course it’s easier if people have a Google account/email and are signed into it on their phone. Which many do and are.
I noticed on Google this particular location for SmartStop has a ton of reviews and is at a 4.9 - many more reviews than where I was and a much higher ranking than any other as well. I’m not surprised.
January’s webinar is here! This one is a favorite of mine because it includes the fascial lens when teaching the movement of the foot and ankle. It cover anatomy, fascia, and accessory motion of the foot and ankle. Definitely worth checking out.

Only seen him 1x so far, last week. He's 27 yo and has been playing soccer (recreationally) since he was little, loves it and wants to get back ASAP. He came in for R calf pain (dull, achey, worse at end of day after being on feet all day). History of multiple gastroc tears (11/2024, re-injured 05/2025, and again at the end of 2025 but is feeling much better since the start of 2026.
He also has a history of R quad and labrum tear in 2023/2024, currently asymptomatic. He pointed out a divet in upper R thigh.
This is what I treated:
1) Motor Points: R TFL (super tight like a rock), R glute med ant, R glute min, L TVA.
2) R calf adhesions Inline(4 points) followed by guasha
For further treatment, should I add:
- Gastroc motor points?
- Achilles paratendon treatment (in ankle webinar)?
- Divet in the R upper thigh - should I address this in some way?
- Other?
Follow up case discussion: I asked about a M/55 y/o groin pain case a few weeks back. I was able to do treatment to reduce pain in the area when we discussed obturator nerve issue but it turned out to be a hernia. I had referred out the patient for assessment with his primary care and they found a hernia and they will follow up with surgery. I am unsure if the hernia might have been due to a weight loss procedure he had a few weeks before having the issue. He was having to wear a compression vest post procedure.
