A Few Good Physios

A Few Good Physios

A Few Good Physios podcast is a journey through the physical therapy/strength & conditioning industry, told by the view points of Dr. Eric Munõz and Dr. Leonidas Scantalides. Both are seasoned NYC clinicians with their own practices (Integrated PT² and On Point Sports Care) specializing in orthopedic outpatient care and strength/conditioning. Episodes range from clinical commentary on various injuries to featured guests, discussing industry trends, new evidence, and popular orthopaedic treatments. Although Dr. Munõz and Dr. Scantalides love all sporting events, they have particular interest in combat sports, as they themselves are competitive Brazilian jiu-jitsu practitioners in NYC. Listen in as their life experiences echo their martial arts practices! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
