Ep 36 - Dr. Emily Splichal Talks Optimizing Foot Function Using Barefoot Science (Part 1)
In this week's episode we have one of the foremost authorities in barefoot science, rehabilitation, and education, Dr. Emily Splichal. I have had the pleasure of hearing Dr. Emily speak on several occasions and I come out of every conference session and education experience with some great new insights that can immediately be applied to my work with client and even my own life.
As a Podiatrist, Human Movement Specialist and Global Leader in Barefoot Science and Rehabilitation, Dr. Emily has developed a keen eye for movement dysfunction and neuromuscular control during gait. Originally trained as a surgeon, in 2017 Dr. Emily put down her scalpel and shifted her practice to one that is build around functional and regenerative medicine.
Dr. Emily is the founder of the Evidence Based Fitness Academy (or EBFA), creator of the Barefoot Training Specialist*, BarefootRx*, and BARE* Workout Certifications, and inventor of Naboso Barefoot Technology.
In this series of episodes, Dr. Emily dives into the anatomy of the foot and ankle, as well as the role the foot plays in allowing us to optimize performance, manage pain, and become more aware of out environment.
