METSI stands for musicians, entertainers, tech/start-up, and service industry. If you're a freelancer, entrepreneur, or you work in a METSI industry, we got your back! 🙌🏽 In late 2019 LatitudePT teamed up with @metsicare to provide complete wellness solutions while fostering creative growth in our community. Its been incredible to see the impact that compassionate and accessible healthcare has made on the lives of our patients. Previously physical therapy discounts were exclusive to METSI Care members, but we've decided to open it up to anyone who works on these industries. Contact LatitudePT @the.barefoot.pt for the discount code, or schedule a free consultation on our website. . Don't let aches and pains stop you from doing what you want to do! Those things can certainly make you feel weak or broken, however those signals aren't always accurate (actually, many times)! I see changes in "strength" and pain during the course of a single visit every day. Head, neck, shoulder, elbow, wrist, mid to low back, hips, knees, ankles, and feet! So often do I hear from my patients that they wished they had come in sooner. Don't wait to get back to life! Let's GOOOOO 🙌🏽 . #rootsmvmt #youraustinphysio #keepaustinrunning #austinrunners #runningrehab #runatx #latitudept #borntorun #physicalfitness #atx #austin #getpt1st #preventativehealth #movementismedicine (at Latitude PT) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPTuPPCli9w/?utm_medium=tumblr

#movementminute !!! Get up and shake your groove thang. It doesn't take more than a minute to do something good for the body. Remember the bear crawl? Maybe, maybe not? Great for your core and hamstring mobility. Tips: start on your hands and knees, hands directly under the shoulders, knees under the hip joint, spread your fingers wide, spiral the eyes of the elbows forward (external rotation) and come up into the A-Frame shape - like your downward dog. Right hand, then left foot. Take small steps, and make sure the step with the hand is the same length as the step with the foot. Next, have fun with it! Great way to break up the day. . #movementismedicine #rootsmvmt #youraustinphysio #keepaustinrunning #austinrunners #latitudept #physicalfitness #atx #austin #movementculture #rewildyourself #jointmobility #spinehealth #preventativehealth #justplay (at Latitude PT) https://www.instagram.com/p/CO3UUxDFVUp/?igshid=o82tejcp2zk1

#movementminute !!! Chances are you've been sitting in the same position for far too long today. It only takes mere seconds to do something good for the body. Try this one. Your squat may look different, that's ok. Your twist may look different, that's ok. I did a demo at 2 different heights, it doesn't matter. Squat & twist! Do a few times to each side; add some pauses; wiggle around a little bit of you feel like it! Don't submit to the sedentary! No amount of intense exercise can make up for a full day of sitting on your 🍑 Remember that. . #movementismedicine #rootsmvmt #youraustinphysio #barefoottribe #keepaustinrunning #austinrunners #barefootwalking #runningrehab #runatx #latitudept #borntorun #minimalist #barefoot #physicalfitness #atx #austin #getpt1st #movementculture #rewildyourself #biohacking #jointmobility #spinehealth #preventativehealth #justplay (at Latitude PT) https://www.instagram.com/p/COvssGtl3GG/?igshid=vq5sx8h516vs

One of the most important aspects of health is community. My buddy Yus and I met thru a running group @rawrunning. Looking back on the past year the group has accomplished more than I think anyone could have imagined. Super happy to be able to help friends and serve the community. Grab a training buddy and #liveyourbestlife #heartyoga ♥️ . #rootsmvmt #youraustinphysio #keepaustinrunning #austinrunners #runningrehab #runatx #latitudept #borntorun #physicalfitness #atx #austin #getpt1st #jointmobility #spinehealth #themissinglink #freethefoot #preventativehealth #movementismedicine #justplay (at Latitude PT) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8JuCGpF8QZ/?igshid=1cqzj2tz9ghx4

LatitudePT.com | METSICare.com : 📸@the.barefoot.pt just spending some quality with one my favorite patients @kevv.pop who's putting in the work and seeing great results. Also telling a story of our treatment approach here at LatitudePT. I saw a debate on social media this morning essentially asking "passive modality (i.e. massage, dry needling) or exercise?" Who said we had to choose one!? We all know a multimodal approach is best. I'm a manual therapy trained orthopedic physical therapist, which means, I'm decent with my 👐🏽s. But, I never like to keep a patient on the treatment table for more than half of a session. At Latitude, movement is first and second, followed by hands on treatment, and maybe topped off with some movement re-education. We use passive modalities as a way of improving performance and quality of movement. #movementismedicine. : #rootsmvmt #youraustinphysio #keepaustinrunning #austinrunners #runningrehab #runatx #latitudept #borntorun #physicalfitness #atx #austin #getpt1st #movementculture #jointmobility #spinehealth #themissinglink #preventativehealth #movementismedicine #justplay (at Latitude PT) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8HgXWCFVjU/?igshid=1dedemhjpn9gd

Oh hey, it looks like lungs! 🙃 And six miles under 6 min per mile! 👣 Felt great... to know this big kid still gots it, haha! Really, it's no more than the people I surround myself with. Between @rawrunning and @oceanlabatx what an inspiring community of people! Thanks for pushing me at least once weekly 💪🏽🏃🏽‍♂️💨 . Thank you @pautur for teaching me a love for sport and nature and leadership when I was really just a kid in HS. Thank you @martin.phillip.goldmountain for coaching me into the competitor (in life) that I became. Thanks to the injuries, tribulations, heartbreak and loss that taught me more about what's important in life. Thanks to a community that's breathed new life into my favorite pastime. Thank you @softstarshoes for making the best shoes I've ever owned. And to all the #naturalfootwear brands out there that teach people their feet are strong and capable. Just check out what their about. You'll find a small honest company producing handmade shoe in the US, that are healthy for the feet with sustainability in mind. They showed up at my house in a recyclable pouch envelope thing! So very minimal packaging. And these shoes last! And no, they don't pay me, haha. But, you know who I am if you've read this far! Thank you #ptschool, @therunningclinic, my mentors and researchers for teaching me some things about feet and running! ...Amen lol 🙏🏽 . #rootsmvmt #youraustinphysio #barefoottribe #keepaustinrunning #austinrunners #barefootwalking #runningrehab #runatx #latitudept #borntorun #minimalist #barefoot #physicalfitness #atx #austin #getpt1st #movementculture #rewildyourself #biohacking #jointmobility #spinehealth #themissinglink #freethefoot #preventativehealth #movementismedicine #justplay #barefootisbetter (at The Ocean Lab) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8F_mPnFdnA/?igshid=q0365ivdvi0t

So I did a crazy thing! I ran in my primitive sandals from @earthrunners in a relay from Austin to Corpus Christi, TX for the Cap to Coast relay. 223 miles with a 12 man team (@rawrunning) and we took home 1st place! . But it was no simple feat. The amount of preparation that goes into an event like this is an undertaking. So thankful for the people at RAW and @underarmour for making this possible. I can't wait to see the footage as well! . Of the 3 legs I ran, which added up to about 20 miles total, I was happy with two of the efforts, while the first leg was a disaster, but also outside of my control. Long story short, I got a huge thorn stuck in my foot! . Didn't let it stop me though. Finished the rest of the 20-some-hour race bloodied, bandaged and happier every step closer to the finish line! . Moral of the story reminded me that as humans we all fail. It's simply part of the experience. You can either let it fester and spoil your mind, or push on further despite the odds. If you're not failing at some point, you're probably not pushing yourself hard enough. Important things to remember for #runners but also anyone who is struggling. Remember it's only temporary and the only thing we can change is the future! ✨ . #rootsmvmt #youraustinphysio #barefoottribe #keepaustinrunning #austinrunners #barefootwalking #runningrehab #runatx #latitudept #borntorun #minimalist #barefoot #physicalfitness #atx #austin #movementculture #rewildyourself #biohacking #jointmobility #spinehealth #freethefoot #barefootisbetter (at Latitude PT) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7ZjkXVlX7C/?igshid=181p02znr4az2
