Balance, Structure, and the Secret to Aging Well | The Deep Six | Episode 46

This week on The Deep Six, Dr. Lewerenz sits down with Neil King, founder of Neil King Physical Therapy, a Metro Detroit institution with 10 locations and over 65,000 patients served across 30 years. Neil came to physical therapy through an unlikely path in competitive cycling, and that background shapes everything about how he treats patients today. Together, they dig into the real cause of most lower back pain, why shoulder impingement gets mistaken for rotator cuff tears, and why balance and posture matter more than almost anything else as you age. Neil also shares his personal benchmark of riding his age in miles every birthday. At nearly 81, he is still doing it!
