Today’s guest is Injury Rehabilitation and Prevention Specialist Dorota Lewandowski. Dorota takes us through her mission & love for expanding others potential through recovery and movement. Dorota has a Master’s of Science in Kinesiology, concentrated in Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation from CUNY Brooklyn College, a Double Bachelors of Science in Biology and Physical Education from St. Francis College in Brooklyn, NY, and an Associate Degree of Applied Science in Polysomnography from Oregon Institute of Technology. She is a certified Exercise Physiologist through the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) and is a board certified Polysomnographic Technologist, or Sleep Disorder Specialist.

In this episode she takes us through her own injury recovery journey of breaking her neck while surfing. She shares with us how this experience has allowed her to develop an emotional understanding of recovery and rehabilitation to integrate with her intellectual understanding of it. She goes on to share how she was able to extrapolate her experience and apply it both to the rehabilitation and preventative work she does with her clients.  

We move on to discuss to the mental, emotional, & spiritual side of recovering from an injury to the benefits non-athletes experience from applying preventative, recovery and movement practices to their regime, the importance of social support, and the heart and soul she pours into her clients to facilitate their journey towards their highest health potential.
