Tom Walters: Empowering People with Simple Exercises to Alleviate Pain and Recover from Injury

Dr. Tom Walters is a board-certified orthopedic physical therapist that specializes in the treatment of pain and movement disorders. He is the founder of Rehab Science and dedicates his time to teaching people about human movement, pain, and how to most effectively recover from injury. Besides running his clinical practice, Tom served as a full-time undergraduate kinesiology professor for eight years where he taught human biomechanics, therapeutic exercise, and pain science.

Kelly has known Tom for a long time and really appreciates his new book Rehab Science. It reiterates what Kelly has been preaching for years: that “All human beings should be able to perform basic maintenance on themselves”. Much like Becoming a Supple Leopard, this book empowers people to take a crack at fixing their bodies before having to see a professional.
