prevention easy. And enjoyable. Thank you. Thank

00:01:39.689 --> 00:01:41.489
you. Thank you so much, Sheila, first of all,

00:01:41.489 --> 00:01:44.829
inviting me. It's great meeting you. And I'm

00:01:44.829 --> 00:01:46.989
sure today will be one of the best show you ever

00:01:46.989 --> 00:01:50.269
done. Oh, well, I look forward to it and to learn

00:01:50.269 --> 00:01:53.170
about how to find joy in pain or overcome pain.

00:01:53.469 --> 00:01:56.769
So you have built your career helping people

00:01:56.769 --> 00:02:01.409
move out of pain and into strength. What inspired

00:02:01.409 --> 00:02:05.939
you to take your expertise? beyond the clinic

00:02:05.939 --> 00:02:10.439
and creating accessible tools like Theravio and

00:02:10.439 --> 00:02:13.860
authoring a book, How to Cure Your Hand and Wrist

00:02:13.860 --> 00:02:19.259
Pain in 30 Days. So what happened is while during

00:02:19.259 --> 00:02:22.460
my practice, one time I was going to patient's

00:02:22.460 --> 00:02:25.919
house and I was trying to help her in the house.

00:02:25.960 --> 00:02:27.659
Like I was treating her in the house and I see

00:02:27.659 --> 00:02:30.360
like a lot of families are involved. The kids

00:02:30.360 --> 00:02:33.129
were so much involved. to the best for this patient.

00:02:33.310 --> 00:02:36.969
And that was really overwhelming. But the problem

00:02:36.969 --> 00:02:39.909
was that they were buying every little thing

00:02:39.909 --> 00:02:44.009
available online, which they think would be helpful

00:02:44.009 --> 00:02:47.370
for their parents. But then whenever I go there

00:02:47.370 --> 00:02:49.389
and they want me to use this thing and that thing

00:02:49.389 --> 00:02:53.169
and give them advice, I see that 70 -80 % of

00:02:53.169 --> 00:02:55.930
the item is not useful. And I'm like, why would

00:02:55.930 --> 00:02:58.080
people sell something? It's not even helpful

00:02:58.080 --> 00:03:00.020
for the patient just because they want to put

00:03:00.020 --> 00:03:03.080
stuff inside the box and they just sell it like

00:03:03.080 --> 00:03:04.919
that. So they give me inspiration. I'm like,

00:03:04.919 --> 00:03:08.699
I'm a physical therapist and I have a better

00:03:08.699 --> 00:03:10.699
knowledge, understanding what products helps

00:03:10.699 --> 00:03:12.539
patient or what is the best for the patient.

00:03:13.229 --> 00:03:15.949
And that was my inspiration. I'm like, but this

00:03:15.949 --> 00:03:19.090
patient can be helpful from my service or my

00:03:19.090 --> 00:03:22.110
box. I'm sure that a lot of people would be helpful

00:03:22.110 --> 00:03:26.629
as well. They don't have to spend thousands of

00:03:26.629 --> 00:03:30.189
dollars on buying different products and they

00:03:30.189 --> 00:03:33.490
get what's actually useful rather than just keeping

00:03:33.490 --> 00:03:36.530
in the house as a storage unit. And that's how

00:03:36.530 --> 00:03:40.770
the therapy arrived. And I did like almost...

00:03:41.150 --> 00:03:44.610
Eight months, probably I went to 200 different

00:03:44.610 --> 00:03:46.889
products from different manufacturers, different

00:03:46.889 --> 00:03:52.250
countries, in fact. And then I come out to kind

00:03:52.250 --> 00:03:55.270
of a more unique product, which is actually helpful

00:03:55.270 --> 00:03:58.349
for the hand pain. And to be honest, why hand

00:03:58.349 --> 00:04:00.469
pain? Because that patient in particular had

00:04:00.469 --> 00:04:02.729
a hand problem and I was trying to solve that.

00:04:02.830 --> 00:04:05.110
So that kind of, I just went to that direction.

00:04:05.229 --> 00:04:08.729
And then another question came afterward, how

00:04:08.729 --> 00:04:11.539
to use this product? And I'm like, okay, that's

00:04:11.539 --> 00:04:13.439
a good question. And that inspired me to write

00:04:13.439 --> 00:04:16.079
a book. I'm like, okay, what if I write a book

00:04:16.079 --> 00:04:18.560
and give them a special, like step -by -step

00:04:18.560 --> 00:04:23.000
weekly plan, which they can follow using the

00:04:23.000 --> 00:04:25.560
kit or without the kit. You don't need a kit

00:04:25.560 --> 00:04:27.500
for that. But I just gave like a straightforward,

00:04:27.699 --> 00:04:31.620
very easy exercise plan from week one to week

00:04:31.620 --> 00:04:33.879
four. That's why I say like 30 days kind of a

00:04:33.879 --> 00:04:36.250
thing. And it's really helpful. And I had a lot

00:04:36.250 --> 00:04:37.930
of patients, they used it, and they're really,

00:04:37.930 --> 00:04:42.430
really feeling better. So that was really, I

00:04:42.430 --> 00:04:44.910
mean, really heartwarming, you know, that I'm

00:04:44.910 --> 00:04:48.810
able to help people. Yes. And you specialize

00:04:48.810 --> 00:04:52.310
only in hand pain, or do you also practice other

00:04:52.310 --> 00:04:56.269
kinds of physical therapy? I mean, no, yes. I'm

00:04:56.269 --> 00:04:59.189
a very generalized physical therapist. I'm using,

00:04:59.490 --> 00:05:03.199
I've seen post -surgical patient. You can name

00:05:03.199 --> 00:05:06.720
it. I've seen two, four months old kid to all

00:05:06.720 --> 00:05:09.819
the way to 102 year old person. So I have seen

00:05:09.819 --> 00:05:12.779
all kind of a patient just because I said it

00:05:12.779 --> 00:05:14.740
just went in the direction because that particular

00:05:14.740 --> 00:05:18.120
patient was my inspiration and that person had

00:05:18.120 --> 00:05:20.639
a hand pain and I was trying to solve that particular

00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:23.959
issue. But to be honest, it's not that easy in

00:05:23.959 --> 00:05:26.160
that route. It's way harder than just taking

00:05:26.160 --> 00:05:28.980
care of one patient at a time. But then I had

00:05:28.980 --> 00:05:31.060
to start somewhere and that's how I ended up

00:05:31.060 --> 00:05:35.579
getting the hand therapy kit. Well, I like that

00:05:35.579 --> 00:05:38.399
you specialize just in hand pain for the book.

00:05:38.480 --> 00:05:43.420
It's very niched down. Yes. Very specific. And

00:05:43.420 --> 00:05:46.500
a lot of people start feeling physical strain,

00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:49.490
especially in their hands and wrists. just from

00:05:49.490 --> 00:05:52.689
their pace of daily life or perhaps being on

00:05:52.689 --> 00:05:57.930
the computer so often, what is one simple shift

00:05:57.930 --> 00:06:02.209
or exercise someone can do to start feeling better

00:06:02.209 --> 00:06:04.930
and take control of their healing if they find

00:06:04.930 --> 00:06:09.029
their hands hurting? The basic stretching exercise

00:06:09.029 --> 00:06:10.990
always works, which is like, you know, kind of

00:06:10.990 --> 00:06:13.370
you just, it's called namaste, which I already

00:06:13.370 --> 00:06:15.589
have in a book, like you kind of put your palm

00:06:15.589 --> 00:06:18.569
together. and just lift your elbow up you will

00:06:18.569 --> 00:06:21.370
feel the stretch here that right away you see

00:06:21.370 --> 00:06:25.269
that so you feel the stretch now you want to

00:06:25.269 --> 00:06:28.389
hold it for count 10 and then just release it

00:06:28.389 --> 00:06:30.629
or another one which is more advanced is like

00:06:30.629 --> 00:06:33.870
you're going like other way which is your back

00:06:33.870 --> 00:06:36.529
of the palm and then now you can lower the elbow

00:06:36.529 --> 00:06:39.660
down So you're going to feel the stretching in

00:06:39.660 --> 00:06:42.180
both the front part of the wrist and the back

00:06:42.180 --> 00:06:44.160
part of the wrist. These are the basic stretching

00:06:44.160 --> 00:06:48.800
exercises which really, really improve the blood

00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:51.360
circulation, release the muscle tension around

00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:54.720
your wrist, and also a lot of patients with the

00:06:54.720 --> 00:07:00.040
carpal tunnel, like wrist arthritis, the main

00:07:00.040 --> 00:07:02.120
conditions actually can be helpful for that.

00:07:03.259 --> 00:07:05.980
So I didn't realize that my hands hurt until

00:07:05.980 --> 00:07:09.689
I... Put them together as if I'm doing yoga,

00:07:09.829 --> 00:07:12.629
right? The namaste, I put them together and I

00:07:12.629 --> 00:07:16.490
raise the elbows a bit and I do feel that stretch.

00:07:17.149 --> 00:07:20.189
How often should we practice this? Every day

00:07:20.189 --> 00:07:23.899
before or after getting on that computer? So

00:07:23.899 --> 00:07:27.560
I always advise that depends on how many hours

00:07:27.560 --> 00:07:30.120
you're going to sit on the computer or work on

00:07:30.120 --> 00:07:33.740
the computer or even any hand -related activities.

00:07:33.980 --> 00:07:37.079
But ideally, always do it before because whenever

00:07:37.079 --> 00:07:39.120
you, let's say right now, you're doing a yoga

00:07:39.120 --> 00:07:42.779
or any exercises or cooking, just gardening,

00:07:42.879 --> 00:07:46.000
any kind of activities, if your hands are tight,

00:07:46.649 --> 00:07:49.490
And imagine you're working through those activities.

00:07:49.490 --> 00:07:51.709
Now you're putting a lot of pressure on your

00:07:51.709 --> 00:07:53.829
joints because your muscles are not flexible

00:07:53.829 --> 00:07:57.569
enough to move in a flexible direction. So what

00:07:57.569 --> 00:08:00.170
happens because of that? It will put stress on

00:08:00.170 --> 00:08:02.470
your wrist and can lead to another injury later

00:08:02.470 --> 00:08:04.670
on, which you don't realize now, but you will

00:08:04.670 --> 00:08:08.329
in a few years, right? So always do before. Now

00:08:08.329 --> 00:08:11.329
you do after because, again, same concept. Because

00:08:11.329 --> 00:08:14.759
of any activities. Your hands are getting tired.

00:08:14.980 --> 00:08:17.480
So when you stretch, it releases the tension

00:08:17.480 --> 00:08:19.939
and you feel good. That's the whole idea. But

00:08:19.939 --> 00:08:23.660
I strongly suggest to do before. That's most

00:08:23.660 --> 00:08:26.180
advisable. And let's say if you don't want to

00:08:26.180 --> 00:08:28.720
do anything, just do quick stretching. I promise

00:08:28.720 --> 00:08:30.500
you don't want to take more than 5 to 10 minutes

00:08:30.500 --> 00:08:32.440
early in the morning and just before you go to

00:08:32.440 --> 00:08:35.399
sleep. Those two things will be really, really

00:08:35.399 --> 00:08:38.940
game changer for your hand health. So in your

00:08:38.940 --> 00:08:41.600
book, I'm assuming you have pictures or illustrations

00:08:41.600 --> 00:08:44.919
to show the different exercises. And then you

00:08:44.919 --> 00:08:48.000
can buy a kit separately that comes with different

00:08:48.000 --> 00:08:52.240
either pillows or squeezable. I was looking at

00:08:52.240 --> 00:08:54.620
the website trying to see what the bundle includes.

00:08:55.460 --> 00:09:00.100
Yeah, my kit has everything. Like I found the

00:09:00.100 --> 00:09:02.379
ice pack, which you can also use a heat pack

00:09:02.379 --> 00:09:04.320
because some people don't like ice. and they

00:09:04.320 --> 00:09:06.840
want to hit so it's a one uh particular item

00:09:06.840 --> 00:09:09.279
you can put in the freezer use it as ice pack

00:09:09.279 --> 00:09:11.620
you can take it out is there's a wrist pain i

00:09:11.620 --> 00:09:14.419
mean uh hit back then you have a lot of wraps

00:09:14.419 --> 00:09:17.080
uh like a spandex kind of a thing because sometimes

00:09:17.080 --> 00:09:18.960
you have a lot of pain and you want to wrap around

00:09:18.960 --> 00:09:22.899
something so i use that one And then I have a

00:09:22.899 --> 00:09:25.159
little tiny finger massager. A lot of people

00:09:25.159 --> 00:09:27.299
love it because you massage yourself, like your

00:09:27.299 --> 00:09:29.779
fingers, especially when you get swollen or your

00:09:29.779 --> 00:09:32.139
wrist area or all this hypothyroid and muscles

00:09:32.139 --> 00:09:35.500
part of like a palm of your hand. It's really,

00:09:35.580 --> 00:09:38.480
really helpful for the people. Now about the

00:09:38.480 --> 00:09:42.379
book. If anybody buying a kit or even you don't

00:09:42.379 --> 00:09:44.320
buy the kit, if you just need a book, you don't

00:09:44.320 --> 00:09:46.779
need a physical copy, you just go to my website,

00:09:46.899 --> 00:09:48.700
put your email address and right away it will

00:09:48.700 --> 00:09:50.899
come to your inbox. So you don't even have to

00:09:50.899 --> 00:09:53.779
purchase it because I want to help people. And

00:09:53.779 --> 00:09:57.860
even the Amazon, I put the book, trust me, it's

00:09:57.860 --> 00:10:00.080
zero penny. I mean, I don't make any penny out

00:10:00.080 --> 00:10:02.740
of it. Whatever the cost you see, it's just because

00:10:02.740 --> 00:10:06.100
Amazon charging me because Amazon has to print

00:10:06.100 --> 00:10:09.299
and ship it to you. if you want a physical copy

00:10:09.299 --> 00:10:11.360
so whatever the price you see on amazon it just

00:10:11.360 --> 00:10:14.000
because it's amazon fees and amazon shipping

That would be theravio .com. T -H -E -R -A -V

00:11:15.100 --> 00:11:19.279
-I -O .com. I'll go ahead and leave that in the

00:11:19.279 --> 00:11:22.100
show notes as well. And then if you want the

00:11:22.100 --> 00:11:24.600
physical book, you can head on over to Amazon

00:11:24.600 --> 00:11:28.879
and pay so that the physical book gets shipped

00:11:28.879 --> 00:11:33.139
and delivered to you. So now let's talk a little

00:11:33.139 --> 00:11:38.419
bit about the business aspect of how you've turned

00:11:38.419 --> 00:11:41.659
hands on healing, which I think is great for

00:11:41.659 --> 00:11:43.820
anyone that spends a lot of time on the computer.

00:11:43.860 --> 00:11:47.379
I'm sure a lot of other reasons lead people,

00:11:47.480 --> 00:11:50.240
you know, to you to get physical therapy for

00:11:50.240 --> 00:11:52.379
their hands. But as someone that spends a lot

00:11:52.379 --> 00:11:54.320
of time on the computer, I'm definitely going

00:11:54.320 --> 00:11:57.370
to download that book. So as someone who's turned

00:11:57.370 --> 00:12:01.490
hands -on healing into a scalable business, what

00:12:01.490 --> 00:12:05.509
have you learned about perseverance, innovation,

00:12:05.769 --> 00:12:10.429
while building Thoravio? So what I learned through

00:12:10.429 --> 00:12:13.269
this journey, I mean, I'm into the business long

00:12:13.269 --> 00:12:17.350
enough. I tried different business and I really

00:12:17.350 --> 00:12:19.789
wanted to kind of get going because I want to

00:12:19.789 --> 00:12:21.549
create a legacy. Of course, I want to create

00:12:21.549 --> 00:12:25.799
my name out there. I want to help my kids. All

00:12:25.799 --> 00:12:29.799
that apart, nothing worked so far until I started

00:12:29.799 --> 00:12:32.940
Terravio. And then I learned that the reason

00:12:32.940 --> 00:12:35.460
Terravio worked, because that's the only business

00:12:35.460 --> 00:12:38.019
I didn't start as a business. I started as helping

00:12:38.019 --> 00:12:40.620
people and it was my passion about helping people.

00:12:40.860 --> 00:12:44.179
Until then, I was finding all these products.

00:12:44.259 --> 00:12:46.379
A lot of people, I'm sure in the audience, they

00:12:46.379 --> 00:12:48.460
do the same thing. They look for the products

00:12:48.460 --> 00:12:51.679
or the services which they think can be helpful

00:12:51.679 --> 00:12:55.279
to the people. But they forget the main aim is

00:12:55.279 --> 00:12:58.580
what is solving the problem. So I wanted to get

00:12:58.580 --> 00:13:01.940
rid of the hand pain or make people's life easier.

00:13:01.980 --> 00:13:04.299
Like you saying that you sit on a computer. If

00:13:04.299 --> 00:13:07.299
my book or my kit can help you to live your life

00:13:07.299 --> 00:13:09.559
better, there's nothing better than that. So

00:13:09.559 --> 00:13:12.720
my goal shifts from creating just a product.

00:13:13.419 --> 00:13:16.340
to helping people. And that took my business

00:13:16.340 --> 00:13:19.539
to the next level because now my mindset is completely

00:13:19.539 --> 00:13:22.299
changed. So yeah, that whole thing changed my

00:13:22.299 --> 00:13:25.340
business game completely. What was some of the

00:13:25.340 --> 00:13:27.500
hardest part that you had to overcome? If you

00:13:27.500 --> 00:13:30.559
had to give somebody advice, someone that's looking

00:13:30.559 --> 00:13:33.820
to do this with their business, what one piece

00:13:33.820 --> 00:13:37.179
of advice would you give them? the harder it

00:13:37.179 --> 00:13:39.539
is the better it is i can tell you the reason

00:13:39.539 --> 00:13:41.820
my kit is the best again it's not that because

00:13:41.820 --> 00:13:45.100
of i created or because it's created by like

00:13:45.100 --> 00:13:48.320
experienced person it just it's too complex means

00:13:48.320 --> 00:13:51.399
there's so many components going in like you

00:13:51.399 --> 00:13:53.980
see there's so many products into that one kit

00:13:53.980 --> 00:13:56.460
now imagine i have to deal with like six seven

00:13:56.460 --> 00:13:59.279
different manufacturer i have to coordinate with

00:13:59.279 --> 00:14:02.360
them Bring them together. Make sure that all

00:14:02.360 --> 00:14:04.700
products are in the box. You have to find one

00:14:04.700 --> 00:14:07.159
complaint from the customer who says they didn't

00:14:07.159 --> 00:14:09.279
receive the correct product. Now, because it's

00:14:09.279 --> 00:14:12.539
so much complex, a lot of people don't even want

00:14:12.539 --> 00:14:15.980
to try it. So the harder it is, the better it

00:14:15.980 --> 00:14:18.279
is. It means you're already running out of the

00:14:18.279 --> 00:14:20.340
competition. A lot of people don't have patience

00:14:20.340 --> 00:14:23.419
or people don't want to work as hard as we do.

00:14:23.519 --> 00:14:25.799
So when you're ready to work hard and when you're

00:14:25.799 --> 00:14:29.940
consistent, you're... you have definitely 100

00:14:29.940 --> 00:14:32.399
% chances of success. It's just a matter of when

00:14:32.399 --> 00:14:35.740
you get the success. So in business, we call

00:14:35.740 --> 00:14:38.820
the term a low barrier to entry or a high barrier

00:14:38.820 --> 00:14:41.960
to entry. So you're saying the harder or the

00:14:41.960 --> 00:14:44.679
larger the barrier to entry, the easier it'll

00:14:44.679 --> 00:14:48.340
be to stand out or succeed, even though it's

00:14:48.340 --> 00:14:52.179
harder to get into doing this. Yeah. And a lot

00:14:52.179 --> 00:14:54.940
of people tell me like, oh. I mean, personally,

00:14:55.820 --> 00:14:57.919
when somebody tells me, oh, it's too hard, that

00:14:57.919 --> 00:14:59.740
makes me excited. I'm like, oh, there you go,

00:14:59.740 --> 00:15:03.019
perfect. My half of the competition is gone already.

00:15:03.500 --> 00:15:06.080
So all I have to do is be a little bit better

00:15:06.080 --> 00:15:07.960
than another half, and I'm already at the top.

00:15:08.220 --> 00:15:10.940
Having to source different products also doesn't

00:15:10.940 --> 00:15:13.759
sound easy. One thing is to find one manufacturer

00:15:13.759 --> 00:15:17.039
that can produce all the products, but another

00:15:17.039 --> 00:15:20.879
thing is having to test and rely on different

00:15:20.879 --> 00:15:24.370
manufacturers. That's why it took me almost eight

00:15:24.370 --> 00:15:27.629
months before I actually finalized all the manufacturer

00:15:27.629 --> 00:15:31.309
because I probably tried at least 40 to 50 manufacturer

00:15:31.309 --> 00:15:34.269
because each product has a different manufacturer.

00:15:34.649 --> 00:15:37.809
And then once you get the sample, the quality

00:15:37.809 --> 00:15:40.230
difference, the size is different. So all these

00:15:40.230 --> 00:15:43.250
things. So technically, I have tested almost

00:15:43.250 --> 00:15:48.230
30 to 40 manufacturer and almost 150 to 200 different

00:15:48.230 --> 00:15:51.870
products before finalizing my 20 core products,

00:15:52.009 --> 00:15:57.110
kind of. in one box. So what is your next milestone?

00:15:58.750 --> 00:16:02.909
So during this journey, something clicked and

00:16:02.909 --> 00:16:04.809
a lot of people started getting help. And I'm

00:16:04.809 --> 00:16:07.809
like, okay, my next goal is to help 100 million

00:16:07.809 --> 00:16:10.570
people to be pain -free. And that's my goal.

00:16:10.730 --> 00:16:12.590
I know it's a long version. It's going to take,

00:16:12.649 --> 00:16:15.080
I don't know, God knows how many years. But that's

00:16:15.080 --> 00:16:18.500
my goal. And of course, along the journey, I'm

00:16:18.500 --> 00:16:21.980
planning on different products. So I'm like talking

00:16:21.980 --> 00:16:23.899
to a lot of patients. And as you see, I'm currently

00:16:23.899 --> 00:16:26.080
working with the patients. I'm taking a feedback

00:16:26.080 --> 00:16:28.379
from that, what I would do to make their life

00:16:28.379 --> 00:16:30.820
easier. And then eventually we'll launch more

00:16:30.820 --> 00:16:33.559
product under this brand. And also, like I say,

00:16:33.620 --> 00:16:36.659
goal is at the end, 100 million people to be

00:16:36.659 --> 00:16:40.259
pain -free. Well, I wish you well, and I hope

00:16:40.259 --> 00:16:42.500
that you are able to help that many people live.

00:16:43.080 --> 00:16:46.940
pain -free. So with that in mind, will it all

00:16:46.940 --> 00:16:49.740
focus on the hands and the wrist, or are you

00:16:49.740 --> 00:16:53.559
looking to explore other pain areas? No, other

00:16:53.559 --> 00:16:56.279
pain areas. So there's a couple of options that

00:16:56.279 --> 00:16:59.159
came on the table. Like I said, I spoke to a

00:16:59.159 --> 00:17:01.580
lot of patients. There are short -term relief

00:17:01.580 --> 00:17:03.879
and the long -term relief. So the hand therapy

00:17:03.879 --> 00:17:06.279
kit is not considered a short -term relief because

00:17:06.279 --> 00:17:09.460
it requires three to four weeks of consistent

00:17:09.460 --> 00:17:12.950
exercises and following the plan. But right now,

00:17:12.970 --> 00:17:15.609
working towards something, it can be immediate

00:17:15.609 --> 00:17:18.250
effect. It could be anywhere like a generalized

00:17:18.250 --> 00:17:20.809
pain related. So I have a few things in the mind,

00:17:20.849 --> 00:17:23.730
but I don't want to say it because I don't know

00:17:23.730 --> 00:17:27.750
it's going to get off the floor. So if something

00:17:27.750 --> 00:17:30.410
concrete happens, I will definitely announce

00:17:30.410 --> 00:17:34.099
it and people would know for sure. Well, you

00:17:34.099 --> 00:17:35.799
haven't asked for my feedback, but I vote for

00:17:35.799 --> 00:17:38.500
back pain. If we can find a solution for back

00:17:38.500 --> 00:17:40.960
pain, that would be great. There you go. I'm

00:17:40.960 --> 00:17:44.960
going to do that. I'll work on that. Well, thank

00:17:44.960 --> 00:17:48.039
