Welcome to My Channel!

Hello and welcome to my channel!

My name is Dr. Tom Walters and I am a board-certified orthopedic physical therapist who specializes in exercise prescription and manual therapy. Besides working as a physical therapist, I also served as a full-time undergraduate kinesiology professor for nine years and taught courses in human biomechanics, therapeutic exercise and pain science.

I hope you find my channel to be helpful. Please look through my playlists, which are organized by body region, when looking for exercises for a particular pain issue or injury.

Also, my new book (Rehab Science: How to Overcome Pain and Heal from Injury) contains comprehensive rehab exercise programs for the 50 most common conditions with pictures of me doing the exercises. I wrote the book with the specific intention of teaching others how to treat pain and injuries on their own. If you're interested in ordering my book, please use the links below:

73 yr old female that had 2x TKR within a year. Ustilizing a Drive walker for that time as my Ortho surgeon said my knees where, "really bad". I put constant weight on my shoulders and a couple of months later I developed impingement in both arms and now rotator cuff tears with I will be getting injections for in a week or so, As soon as the shoulder pain developed, I stopped the walker completely and went to a cane for outside mobolity. Now I need some PT that I can do here at home without getting on the floor. Any help for these old bones would be helpful hehe. Tired of pain.

Ordering the book now. Tore my glute medius (complete tear) during BJJ. Would like to program my rehab post-op. After watching your videos on hip mobility and glute mid/med strengthening I think your book may be exactly what I need.
