Only One Body is a stark wake-up call for all of us. We are entrusted with 'only one body,' a truth often overlooked in our busy lives. If we want to live our best lives, we must be committed to growth and development, and the foundation of that is physical health and an understanding of how our bodies work. I see it so often overlooked that I wrote a book about it. We can't really start on a journey of self-development without the information in this book. Physical, mental, emotional, and psychological health, as well as growth and development, are inextricably linked. Only One Body is the owner's manual we all should have gotten at birth. Optimal physical health paves the way for an infinite range of other avenues of health, growth, and development. Ultimately, I wrote this book to empower you to become your own self-advocate, because none of your doctors are going to do the heavy lifting for you. With over 24 years and counting as a sports chiropractor and lifelong athlete, I've experienced many of the sports injuries I've seen in countless patients. I've been fortunate enough to have my professional career take me to the pinnacle of professional sports. But to be honest with you, at that level, the athletes get the very best of care. It's well integrated, well organized, well sequenced, and collaborative. However, for the rest of us, and especially for the younger student athletes I see, finding effective resolutions to injuries remains elusive. Coaches, moms, and dads often lack the knowledge to advocate for their student-athletes effectively. And that is why I wrote this book. I wrote it with the student athlete, his parents, and his coaches in mind. I wrote it for first responders, active military, veterans, and corporate and weekend warriors. With a background forged at the Texas Back Institute, over two decades in private practice, including several years working in professional baseball, this book is my attempt to take that extensive training and clinical experience and to do what I do best for patients; connecting the dots to determine the root cause and accurately diagnose their condition, and collaborate with the right team or professional healthcare providers across specialties to get the best outcomes. I have spent the last decade plus serving a patient community that includes the men and women of our Nation's Armed Forces, veterans, and other governmental agencies in the Northern Virginia, Washington D.C Metro area, and I am honored to bring that experience to you. All the Best, Dr. Matt Fontaine
