I met Karen years ago when she was a patient of mine and owning her own nutrition business was just a dream. Fast forward to the present and Karen is the owner of her very own brick and mortar company, Via Nutrition.
Karen, like many, lived a busy life working full time and having children. She always thought she was “healthy” and that grabbing lunch from Panera was a suitable option. However, Karen never felt quite right inside. She suffered from sinus infections constantly, got cystic acne during her period and experienced irregularity. After embarking on her own personal fitness journey, it all went away.
Karen urges others to turn to nutrition first because many supposed “medical” issue like acne could really be a lifestyle or nutrition problem. Karen discusses many buzz words and fad diets in the nutrition world today, such as intermittent fasting, the keto diet, supplements, and more.

Mike Rosso has come full circle when it comes to Rutgers Athletics. Starting as a student manager for the Women's Gymnastics Team with then assistant coach Umme Salim-Beasley, Mike had the opportunity to follow Umme to Temple University, where he coached for three seasons, and finally made his way home when Umme became the head coach of Rutgers Women's Gymnastics. Mike will be starting his second season with the Scarlet Knights this fall.
Mike sat down with Dr. Justin to talk about the common misconceptions in college gymnastics. It's common to think gymnastics is exactly how it looks when given the most spotlight: at the Olympics. Mike reveals that's not quite the case.

"Think about your body as a table cloth. When one corner gets pulled, everything else gets wrinkled... in order to smooth out the wrinkles, you have to take a step back and see where the wrinkle is coming from."
This is how Dr. Yuchin Chang of Whole Body Wellness Physical Therapy in New Providence, New Jersey, does things differently. She treats the body holistically and understands that chronic pain doesn't come from just one source in the body.
Dr. Chang opened up Whole Body Wellness PT in New Providence in March of 2016. She's passionate about working with people suffering from complex chronic pain. During sessions, Dr. Chang places an emphasis on effective communication, patient education, and compassion. She truly believes that only through a whole-body approach to complex pain conditions and pelvic dysfunctions, one can truly begin his/her journey.
Dr. Chang can be reached through her website, wholebodywellness-pt.com, or at (908) 361-1113.

Just when you think football season is over after the Super Bowl comes the NFL Combine. If the week long showcase where the best in college football face grueling physical and mental tests in front of NFL coaches, general managers, and scouts isn't entertaining enough, imagine what goes on behind the cameras as the athletes prep for arguably one of the most important weeks of their lives.
Dr. Ashdin Billimoria tells us just that. Dr. Ashdin worked behind the scenes at during the 2019 NFL Combine Season at XPE Sports in Boca Raton, treating the athletes.
