In this Episode, Board Certified Physical Therapist Taruna Rijhwani breaks down how she helps her patients separate the two issues - Weight loss & Back problems; deal with them individually thereby setting them up on a path to success. She also breaks down some of the commonly associated myths around weight loss & looking at an individual's overall health & not just the number on the scale.
