In this episode of the podcast, Garrett Saulpeter sits down with Michelle Harris, a physical therapist and co-founder of CHARM (Center for Healing and Regenerative Medicine) in Austin, Texas. Michelle shares her journey from being a competitive gymnast to a physical therapist, with a focus on neuro-rehabilitation.
She explains how her career evolved through various roles, including working with spinal cord and brain injury patients, and how this background laid the foundation for the work she does at CHARM. Michelle highlights the importance of understanding that the body does the healing, and medical professionals are there to guide the process.
One of the key tools Michelle uses at CHARM is NURAC, a closed-chain suspension therapy system. She talks about how it helps patients reduce pain, improve movement, and reprogram dysfunctional neurological patterns. By offloading body weight and providing a pain-free environment, NURAC allows patients to re-learn proper movement and function.
The episode also touches on regenerative medicine, with Michelle and Garrett discussing treatments like prolotherapy and PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma). These therapies stimulate the body's natural healing process, providing a powerful alternative to surgery for conditions like degenerative joint diseases and ligament tears. The integration of regenerative medicine with physical therapy at CHARM creates a holistic approach to healing, addressing both the structural and neurological aspects of recovery.
