## Resource

Hey, Heal Squad! If your knees have been talking, your hips feel tighter than they used to, or you’ve ever wondered if joint pain just comes with getting older… this Throwback Thursday is for you. Maria sits down with top orthopedic surgeon Dr. Jason Snibbe for a fascinating conversation about joint health, mobility, and what we can actually do now to protect our bodies long-term. They get into the everyday habits that may be doing more damage than we realize, the truth about cortisone shots, PRP, robotic-assisted joint replacements, and how to know when pain has crossed the line from manageable to something you actually need to address. Dr. Snibbe also shares why muscle mass matters way more than most people think, how movement can either protect or break down your joints, and why joint replacement isn’t the scary “end of the road” people imagine… it can actually be a brand new beginning!
