  • In case you missed it, Forward Physio has begun to pursue new experiences in a series called “Trial and Error”.

    • This is where we go to different gyms and health/wellness businesses to trial what they have to offer while maybe encountering some error along the way. In the videos we will be interviewing the owner/staff members as well as describing our experiences as we go through them.

    • In case you missed it, here’s Dr. Nick trying CrossFit for the first time, absolutely dogging it at the end. Be on the lookout for our future view where we try various wellness modalities at Restore Hyper Wellness!
