  • Ep 3 | PATIENT PERSPECTIVE: !!Surgery Canceled!! Gastroparesis, GERD, and Bladder Dysfunction

    Ep 3 | PATIENT PERSPECTIVE: !!Surgery Canceled!! Gastroparesis, GERD, and Bladder Dysfunction
    2026/06/30

    "I used to sit in my house and not leave, nights and nights in a row, because I was afraid of what was gonna happen."


    For over a decade, patient Jen Superdock lived with a cascade of conditions that doctors struggled to connect: chronic pelvic pain, gastroparesis, GERD, Barrett's esophagus, and sudden, unexplained loss of bladder control. She tried physical therapy, pelvic floor therapy, medications, and eventually a surgically implanted bladder stimulator with underwhelming results.


    In this episode of Patient Perspectives, Jen sits down with Dr. Dave to share her story and how fascial counterstrain helped her reclaim her life.


    In this episode:

    • Jen's 13-year history with GERD, gastroparesis, and Barrett's esophagus
    • The onset of sudden bladder pain and incontinence and the silence that often surrounds it
    • Her experience with a sacral nerve/bladder stimulator implant
    • What brought her to fascial counterstrain after traditional treatment plateaued
    • The surprising connection between eye muscle tension and pelvic floor dysfunction
    • Canceling a scheduled hemorrhoid surgery after treatment
    • Her advice to anyone who feels like they've run out of options

    1:31 Jen's background: Pensacola, military upbringing, life with Jax
    2:29 The beginning: GERD, gastroparesis, Barrett's esophagus
    4:33 Traditional PT, medications, and the bladder stimulator decision
    5:01 The implant trial and painful recovery
    5:35 Life before illness: roller derby, softball, the gym
    5:49 Post-implant life: still having episodes, waiting for results
    6:19 A second surgery: battery malfunction and replacement
    6:40 What brought her to Renew: lower back pain after surgery
    10:00 First session: pelvis adjustment, soft tissue, a reason to return
    10:31 The second session — counter strain changes everything
    11:10 Eye muscles and the pelvic floor: the neuroscience behind it
    12:57 Layer by layer: peeling back trapped inflammation
    13:17 Reclaiming her life — emotional moment
    18:32 From 16 supplements to fewer than five
    18:38 Treating the whole picture, not just the symptom
    19:10 When PT and functional medicine work together
    20:42 Finding providers willing to collaborate
    20:50 The problem with medical specialization and siloed care
    21:52 Final words: don't give up, be your own advocate

  • Ep 2 | CLINICIAN’S CORNER: Is "You can't help everyone" a COP OUT?!

    Ep 2 | CLINICIAN’S CORNER: Is "You can't help everyone" a COP OUT?!
    2026/06/16

    “I don’t want your money if I’m not fixing you.”

    In this Clinician's Corner episode, Dr. Dave breaks down the three core reasons why so many patients remain in pain despite treatment.

    You’ll hear:

    • Why the phrase "you can't help everyone" is a clinical cop-out
    • How insurance reimbursement structures push clinicians toward volume over outcomes
    • Why pain is the last thing to happen in a pain sequence — not the first
    • What a "root cause" actually means in the chronic pain world (hint: there's usually more than one)
    • The three systems most PTs never treat: the fascial, visceral, and autonomic nervous systems
    • Why manual therapy must come before exercise — and what happens when it doesn't
    • How Dr. Dave's practice built an incentive structure that actually aligns with patient outcomes
    • What real mentorship looks like — and why most "residency programs" are marketing ploys
