From Disc Pain to Game Ready: The Advanced Spinal Restoration Therapy (ASRT) approach to Spine Care.

Descripción

Back pain is one of the most common diagnoses in medicine, and most people are told their only options are rest, medication, injections, or surgery. Dr. Brigitte Rozenberg is here to tell you there's a fourth path. On this episode of Sports Doc Talk, Will and Dr. Garcia welcome the LA-based spine specialist and creator of Advanced Spinal Restoration Therapy (ASRT) to walk through the exact non-surgical protocol she uses to get athletes, injury patients, and chronic pain sufferers back to full function without going under the knife. Dr. Rozenberg breaks down every device in her toolkit: the spinal decompression table that creates negative pressure to draw disc material back in, the robotic laser that triggers cellular healing, the neuromuscular stimulator running at 10,000 pulses per second, and the cutting-edge muscle-building device that can produce 20,000 muscle contractions in 30 minutes. She explains how these tools work together in a phased protocol and why combining them produces results that no single treatment can achieve alone. The episode also features a standout case study: a 16-year-old gymnast training for the Olympics who walked in unable to train, with disc desiccation and early signs of spondylolysis, and walked back out months later fully recovered. Dr. Garcia weighs in with the orthopedic surgeon's perspective throughout, offering a candid look at where surgery is necessary and where it's simply the last tool left when the right non-surgical care wasn't available. This one is for anyone who has been told to just manage their back pain. You might have more options than you think. 00:00 Welcome & The Golden Globes Rant 00:55 The Recovery Shop Sponsor Message 01:45 Meet Dr. Brigitte Rozenberg 04:00 What Is Advanced Spinal Restoration Therapy? 09:00 Why Spinal Decompression Was the Missing Link 13:00 The Sculp Neo: Rebuilding Muscle After Disc Injury 19:00 Class IV Robotic Laser Therapy Explained 23:00 How the ACUSA Decompression Table Works 31:30 Neuro Me: Electrical Stimulation at 10,000 Pulses/Sec 35:30 SoftWave Therapy: Acoustic Waves for Pain Relief 38:00 Case Study: Olympic Gymnast & Disc Recovery 45:30 The Surgeon's View: When to Operate, When Not To 47:00 What's Next for Spine Care Technology sportsdoctalk.com | linktr.ee/sportsdoctalk | The Recovery Shop: mikeb@shoprecovery.com

NIL, Health & the Making of a Student Athlete with Scott Laigo

Here's a question that never used to exist: what happens to a college athlete's healthcare when they enter the transfer portal with a blown ankle and their old school has already moved on? Scott Laigo has the answer. As President of Student Athlete Advocates and a former head football coach at Seattle's Garfield High School, he's in the trenches every day helping athletes and families navigate a system that nobody fully controls anymore. In this episode, Scott joins Dr. Grant Garcia and Will Sanchez to unpack the real story behind NIL, revenue sharing, and the transfer portal. Why are some high school athletes declining surgery to protect $25,000 NIL deals? How are boosters funding arms races that may not be sustainable? And what does the shift to an NFL-style GM structure actually mean for coaches and recruits? Dr. Garcia adds clinical context on team physician pressure, how recent lawsuits are changing what doctors will and won't sign off on, and the growing gray zones around athlete medical care in a portal-era world. Scott's verdict: this system isn't sustainable and real reform starts with fixing the calendar, establishing a cap structure, mandating financial literacy, and getting the right people around the table. If you're a parent, coach, athlete, or sports medicine professional trying to understand what college sports actually looks like right now, this is the episode.
