In this insightful conversation, Dr. Beau Beard sits down with Dr. Steven Capobianco—clinician, educator, and fascia researcher—to unpack the evolving landscape of manual therapy, pain science, and movement-based care.From the history of trigger points and Travell & Simons to modern fascia research from Stecco, they challenge outdated paradigms and offer a fresh framework for integrating touch, neuroscience, and patient-centered care.Topics include:- Why trigger points are still debated—and why they still matter- Fascia’s role in pain and movement, beyond the hype- Rethinking touch: from mechanical to neurological- How to implement the biopsychosocial model with clarity and confidence- The rise in chronic pain—and what clinicians might be missingThis is not about pushing techniques—it’s about elevating clinical reasoning.

You’ll hear real-world cases, clinical insights, and supplement stories (including how glutamine saved a bachelor trip).
