Gaming Health & Performance AMA (MONTHLY) - From medical professionals who have worked with FPX, T1, COL, NIP, Faze, Dig

Hi all - we did this last month and we had such a great response we decided to do this MONTHLY

My name is Dr. Matthew Hwu and I’m a Doctor of Physical Therapy who has worked with a few pros to manage and prevent their injuries. I’m also a part of 1HP, a team of medical professionals who only have one mission: Help gamers play more and hurt less. We want gamers to be better and have created a home-base at 1-HP.org for gamers to learn everything they need to know about staying healthy. Over the past 5 years we have worked with professional esports players in almost every gaming title (pros from EG, 100T, CLG, IMT, DIG, COL, FPX, NIP, T1, NRG and more) to manage issues relating to their health and want to push our community to be more mindful of the pillars of health:

  1. Movement (Exercise, Injury Management, Posture)
  2. Environment (Ergonomics, Sleep, Habits)
  3. Nutrition (Noms)
  4. Mindset (Mental Performance, Social, Emotional, Psychological Wellbeing)

We (Dr. Matthew Hwu, Dr. Elliot Smithson, Dr. Caitlin Mcgee, Dr. Jon Chung DC, Dr. Kevin Ho) are here today to answer any possible questions you might have! So ask away :)
