It's almost always the sign of a great spine surgeon, which is once you rule out the Acute weakness, the thing that is a surgical necessity, the ones that want to wait are generally the better surgeons.

It must be amazing how often we all encounter, hopefully not personally, but professionally, people with lower back pain. The statistics are, I can't imagine there's too many people listening to us who don't have personal or indirect experience with it, either obviously through themselves or through somebody they know closely.

There is something about it that I can really relate to being nerve wracking. It can be terrifying and also demoralizing, I think is how I would describe it. Just demoralizing when your lower back hurts in a way that's not the same as if your shoulder, elbow, knee, or hip hurt.

Do you think this is scalable? I feel fortunate that we're able to take care of people where we have the luxury of doing this very bespoke approach. You can integrate your strength and conditioning with your cardio, with your PT rehab and all that stuff, and it's all great.

If you have good enough image recognition software, would that be a necessary step that if you were using such a device like an app, you would have to be able to set up your phone on a tripod to be at least able to capture you doing it? Because the advantage of being able to do this the first few times with an actual person like you is the cueing is so important.

And why did you gravitate towards this? I mean, we didn't really get into telling people your story, but you went to chiro school, but then you immediately went out and did a sports medicine thing. You worked with the New York Giants.
