Reggie has been practicing for 27 years, beginning with a hockey injury at 15 that set him on the path to chiropractic care and eventually to opening his own practice. We discuss the emotional and physical reality of chronic pain, why 80% of Americans will experience back pain but only 12% seek chiropractic care, and what it actually means to move from crisis to wellness. We also explore discipline as the foundation of health at every life stage, the role of movement, meditation, and nutrition in sustaining quality of life, and what it costs, financially and personally, to trade health for productivity over the long run.   Key Takeaways: - 00:00 Introduction. - 02:17 Reggie’s origin story: a hockey injury at 15, chiropractic care as a teenager, and the path from University of Windsor to chiropractic school in St. Louis to opening his own practice. - 03:44 The emotional reality of pain: why patients feel their pain is unique, why healing takes longer than people expect, and why the doctor-patient relationship in chiropractic care is as much psychological as physical. - 04:45 The wellness gap: 80% of Americans will experience back pain, but only 12% seek chiropractic care, and what that says about how we’re currently managing pain. - 05:54 Why people don’t take action until pain stops them from doing something they love, and what that moment of loss reveals about how we’ve been overriding our body’s signals. - 07:21 True wealth and health: why saving money at the expense of physical wellbeing often means spending it all on recovery later, and how the practice helps patients move from crisis to sustained wellness. - 09:42 Wellness at every life stage: the disciplines Dr. Reggie instills in his own children, why nutrition and movement matter from an early age, and how the aging process changes what the body needs. - 11:46 What to prioritize in the 60s, 70s, and beyond: mental health, movement, and the emerging role of peptides and amino acids in supporting natural recovery. - 13:40 The power of simple movement: Tai Chi, walking, and why even wheelchair-bound patients can benefit from intentional movement, and why cognitive behavioral approaches matter for elderly patients. - 15:27 The discipline lesson: why the only difference between successful and unsuccessful people is their discipline, and how morning routines, meditation, and continuous learning compound over time.
