Healing Through Dry Needling, Self Care & Authentic Living | The Ripple Effect Podcast

What does it take to heal beyond the pills, the quick fixes, and the 15-minute doctor visits? 

For today's episode of The Ripple Effect Podcast, we have Cristi Cuellar, also known as "Austin's Holistic Physical Therapist," who has spent the last 18 years transforming lives through her approach to healing. With a passion for alternative pain management, she champions conscious exercise and an anti-inflammatory lifestyle, emphasizing personalized, one-on-one care that addresses the root causes of pain.

In 2016, Cristi enhanced her expertise by becoming certified in dry needling, inspired by its rapid benefits in her own journey—from a high school athlete who tore her Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), to becoming a physical therapist, and ultimately launching C&C Dry Needling, her own wellness clinic in South Lamar. We talk about what makes her approach so unique, which is the 5R wellness method that helps patients reset their nervous system, repair soft tissue, and truly reclaim their health. She takes pride in listening to her patients' complete stories, creating a holistic pathway to optimal health and empowerment. 

Cristi has a Bachelor's of Health and Science Degree from Baylor University and a Master of Physical Therapy Degree from Texas State University. As a licensed Physical Therapist, she has various continuing education certifications in Dry Needling, Exercise Correction, Reformer Pilates, Manual Therapy, YogaFit, Qigong, and Kinesiotaping techniques. She has also been part of the CHEK (Corrective Holistic Exercise Kinesiology) Institute as a Holistic Lifestyle Coach for over 6 years. She is an advocate for functional medicine, emotional intelligence, and spiritual growth, and a fan of Dr. Mark Hyman, Andrew Huberman, Dr. Stacy Sims, Dr. Joe Dispenza, and Brene Brown. If you've ever wondered how mind-body healing really works, or why traditional physical therapy sometimes misses the bigger picture, you're going to love hearing Cristi's perspective on holistic injury recovery, patient empowerment, and creating balance in life.

Cristi's story proves that healing isn't just about the body. It's about the mind, emotions, and spirit working together. Do you enjoy listening to experts from diverse fields? Hit subscribe and I'll make it happen!
