Acupuncture, Dry-needling & the Biopsychosocial Model ft. Dr. Christiana Marron

Welcome to the 4th episode of the Back to Human podcast.  On this episode I interview a great friend of mine, Dr. Christiana Marron. Dr. Marron runs her own private one-on-one physical therapy practice in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. I was referred to Dr. Marron by an out-of-state physical therapist because I was dealing with lingering knee and elbow issues from previous injuries. The session was so good in comparison to the insurance based, mill-type rehab that I was used to that I decided to understudy her work for a year and referred all of my clientele to her.   She has worked with patients of all ages and abilities who have experienced orthopedic and neurological injuries — including NFL Miami Dolphins football players, professional UFC, Bellator and PFL MMA fighters, professional boxers, Nationally Ranked Raw USAPL Powerlifters, USPA Powerlifters, IFBB/NPC Bodybuilders, professional football and professional rugby athletes.  Dr. Marron is well versed in many modalities including:  •Cupping  •Dry-needling  •Graston technique  •PRI technique   •Vertigo physical therapy  •TMJ disorders  •Pediatric therapy  •Balance disturbance therapy  •Rock tape  In this episode we discuss:  •What led Dr. Marron to pursue a career in physical therapy.  •The difference between acupuncture & dry-needling.  •The meridian systems.  •The biopsychosocial model.  •Psychosomatic illness & injuries.  •How we are underserved with insurance based physical therapy  If you are in the South Florida area and have not found a resolution to your chronic pain I highly suggest you get with Doc.  You can find Dr. Marron on instagram @drchristianamarron.  To book an appointment you can visit her website https://drchristianamarron.com/  I hope you enjoyed the episode and I would love to hear what you thought about it.
