- 1:12Speaker 5: last few years.
- 1:14Speaker 2: So Rich, last week you shared with us how you
- 1:17Speaker 2: fell running downhill, and then a couple days later you
- 1:22Speaker 2: were going to the lot Pup Family fast pulling some
- 1:24Speaker 2: equipment in a wagon.
- 1:25Speaker 3: Yeah, and just hurt your knee like it's split, it snapped.
- 1:29Speaker 3: I've never experienced that before, but I mean, everybody knows
- 1:32Speaker 3: pulling a wagon is hard, dangerous, a hard hat. I
- 1:36Speaker 3: was told to change my origin story. Let my wife's
- 1:38Speaker 3: like jumping up on stage jumping around with a guitar.
- 1:40Speaker 3: That's a cool way to hurt yourself. Pulling a wagon
- 1:43Speaker 3: is not very rock.
- 1:45Speaker 6: Well, then we taped a podcasted talking stick Resort and
- 1:48Speaker 6: Rich was wheeled in in a wheelchair.
- 1:51Speaker 1: I could not walk at all.
- 1:52Speaker 5: Well, I could put a little bit of weight on it,
- 1:55Speaker 5: but it felt like my leg which is gonna collapse.
- 1:56Speaker 2: You know what, you know what you just made me
- 1:58Speaker 2: think of something the way you hurt yourself. Was not
- 2:01Speaker 2: like to say I was on stage rocking out the
- 2:03Speaker 2: band is a cool way, it would be cool? Yes,
- 2:05Speaker 2: Why do we have people call it with really cool ways?
- 2:08Speaker 2: You heard yourself like jumping down the helicopter trying to
- 2:11Speaker 2: save somebody from a flood and you're holding on the
- 2:13Speaker 2: helicopter and you your arm.
- 2:14Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, Now Rich.
- 2:16Speaker 5: Is pulling a wagon, a little blue wagon, by the way,
- 2:19Speaker 5: a little blue wagon anyway. So I've been doing PETE
- 2:23Speaker 5: every day because I'm really trying to avoid anything like
- 2:25Speaker 5: surgery or letting it get worse, right, And so what
- 2:28Speaker 5: I've heard is you take the you know, the steroid
- 2:30Speaker 5: to bring down the inflammation, but you're supposed to work
- 2:33Speaker 5: it through PETA and all that because that way you
- 2:35Speaker 5: can get it stronger. And they don't really want me
- 2:36Speaker 5: on crutches. They want me to learn how to walk.
- 2:38Speaker 5: So one of the things they suggested was acupuncture, which
- 2:42Speaker 5: I've done once a long time ago but don't really
- 2:45Speaker 5: remember it. But I went and did it yesterday. Acupuncture
- 2:48Speaker 5: and you lay down on the table and they start,
- 2:51Speaker 5: I think they feel around. They say they feel around
- 2:53Speaker 5: for like hotspots that might you know, be you know,
- 2:56Speaker 5: like like your body has a little finger. Yeah, and
- 2:58Speaker 5: then they stick the needles and they're pretty far and
- 3:01Speaker 5: it hurts in some spots. It hurts a lot, and
- 3:05Speaker 5: they put them, like in my lower back.
- 3:07Speaker 1: I thought it wasn't supposed to hurt at all.
- 3:08Speaker 3: I feel it.
- 3:10Speaker 1: You do feel it some. There might be a few places,
- 3:12Speaker 1: like they put a good Christopher give it to you.
- 3:14Speaker 1: Maybe that's where you felt this sixty year.
- 3:16Speaker 5: Old Like if they put some stuff like you know
- 3:18Speaker 5: where you get a little more flesh, like in your
- 3:19Speaker 5: butt or something like that, you don't really feel. But
- 3:21Speaker 5: I felt it in my lower back and it aches
- 3:23Speaker 5: the whole time, and then my ankle and my shining
- 3:26Speaker 5: around my knees and all that.
- 3:28Speaker 3: So I asked them.
- 3:29Speaker 5: They think they put twenty twenty or so needles in,
- 3:32Speaker 5: But by the time it was done, I think it
- 3:34Speaker 5: helped me a lot. I think I feel maybe fifty percent.
- 3:38Speaker 4: Okay, Well, let me ask you, so, did it hurt
- 3:40Speaker 4: like it was causing pain or was it just achy
- 3:43Speaker 4: and sore? Okay, because there's a very, okay, very big
- 3:46Speaker 4: difference between something hurting.
- 3:49Speaker 5: And something it was saky. But you know, like those
- 3:51Speaker 5: eggs that like you can feel in your stomach that
- 3:54Speaker 5: kind of ache. Where as soon as the timer went off,
- 3:56Speaker 5: I'm like, whyn't in here removing the needles?
- 3:57Speaker 1: Why ant in here?
- 3:58Speaker 5: What if the electricity goes off and leaves me and
- 4:00Speaker 5: they leave me in this room, I might have to
- 4:01Speaker 5: pull out my own needles, Like I can't move. I
- 4:03Speaker 5: was freaking out once the clock because I was ready,
- 4:06Speaker 5: I was done, but it helped, Like, so I know
- 4:09Speaker 5: you're talking about doing it for yourself.
- 4:11Speaker 4: Yeah, I actually am going today.
- 4:12Speaker 1: I made appointment.
- 4:13Speaker 4: Yeah, I made an appointment to do acupuncture in my
- 4:16Speaker 4: shoulder because I have like the worst shoulder pain. I
- 4:19Speaker 4: dissocated it when I was in college and I was
- 4:21Speaker 4: told that I tore my labrum. I don't know.
- 4:23Speaker 1: I never want to know, like an MRI or don't
- 4:26Speaker 1: do that judging parabrum in my shoulder as a part judging.
- 4:33Speaker 4: And so I was looking up things that would help
- 4:34Speaker 4: alleviate the pain. And one of the things I discovered
- 4:37Speaker 4: was that acupuncture could really hurt or help. But I
- 4:39Speaker 4: looked it up and hurt, and it said it doesn't hurt,
- 4:41Speaker 4: it aches. That's why when you said it hurts, I
- 4:45Speaker 4: was like, what are you talking about.
- 4:48Speaker 1: Is the same.
- 4:49Speaker 2: Maybe you guys, I'm sure you guys read the article
- 4:52Speaker 2: about me in the New York Post.
- 4:53Speaker 3: Yes, is it out here.
- 4:55Speaker 2: I am very much a biohacker. I don't know stuff
- 4:58Speaker 2: about you know, healing and whatnot. And I have done
- 5:02Speaker 2: acupuncture many times many Now there is a difference, though,
- 5:06Speaker 2: Did you get acupuncture or did you get dry needling?
- 5:10Speaker 1: Did they hook up any electricity to them?
- 5:12Speaker 5: No?
- 5:12Speaker 2: Okay, so you got acupuncture, okay, because I know there's
- 5:15Speaker 2: I think the difference is the person doing it, Like
- 5:18Speaker 2: if it's a PTE person, I believe it is.
- 5:21Speaker 1: It is the electricity with the they do that.
- 5:23Speaker 2: They do that, but I thought if it was if yeah,
- 5:26Speaker 2: they stick the needles in you just the same, there's
- 5:29Speaker 2: almost identical to the actual little electricity through it.
- 5:32Speaker 1: Yeah, or they don't. It's they did.
- 5:34Speaker 2: So I feel like, and maybe I can google it
- 5:37Speaker 2: or maybe call you can what's the different between acupuncture
- 5:39Speaker 2: and dry needdling, because I feel it's the same thing.
- 5:40Speaker 2: It's the person that doesn't. If the person is an
- 5:43Speaker 2: Eastern medicine doctor, it's acupuncture. If it's a PETE person,
- 5:47Speaker 2: it's dry needdling. And one of them is illegal in
- 5:51Speaker 2: this state something like that.
- 5:53Speaker 1: Yeah, so yeah.
- 5:54Speaker 4: The place that I'm going to is like a Chinese ocupuncture.
- 5:57Speaker 2: There's keep in mind, you know, I'm only an expert
- 6:01Speaker 2: because they write about me the New York Post.
- 6:03Speaker 5: And they say though, like with the needles, like when
- 6:05Speaker 5: your body starts healing it, it'll push the needles out
- 6:07Speaker 5: of your body.
- 6:08Speaker 1: None of them pushed out of my bottle.
- 6:09Speaker 6: The main difference is that acupuncture is based on traditional
- 6:14Speaker 6: Chinese medicine, while dry needling is rooted in Western medicine principles.
- 6:18Speaker 4: So it's just like I'm also getting a foot reflex massage,
- 6:21Speaker 4: which I'm excited.
- 6:22Speaker 1: Reflexology, that's that. Yeah, yeah, so excited like this.
- 6:26Speaker 6: The acupuncture uses meridian lines to balance your body's energy
- 6:29Speaker 6: or your cheat to treat a variety of conditions, and
- 6:32Speaker 6: dry needling is targeted approach that inserts needles into like
- 6:36Speaker 6: myofacial trigger points in the muscles to relieve pain and
- 6:39Speaker 6: improof fund.
- 6:40Speaker 1: That's what I think you have. I had acupuncture. I
- 6:42Speaker 1: think your guy got it wrong.
- 6:45Speaker 6: It seems like the dry needling would work better for
- 6:48Speaker 6: you if you are trying to relieve pain and improve function.
- 6:51Speaker 2: But again, New York Post. Whatever I have, people says posts,
- 7:00Speaker 2: I'll go correct somebody that they do an exercise. Take
- 7:02Speaker 2: you yourroubles little bit.
