Hi all - We had a great response with these AMAs both here and in other communities so we decided to host another! Our team will hang around for about 9 hours to answer any questions you have about health and gaming.
My name is Dr. Jonathan Chung and I’m a Chiropractor who has worked with many gamers to manage and prevent their injuries. I’m also a part of 1HP, a team of medical professionals with 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 LAV, LAG, GZ Charge, Chengdu Hunters, 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:
- Movement (Exercise, Injury Management, Posture)
- Environment (Ergonomics, Sleep, Habits)
- Nutrition (Noms)
- 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!
ALSO AS AN ADDED BONUS!! We created a video to help you destress from tilting gaming sessions here:
