Getting Open with Andrea Miller

In this episode of Getting Open, Andrea Miller sits down with orthopedic surgeon Dr. Jason Snibbe to talk about what really helps people stay mobile, strong, and pain-free as they age. Rather than jumping straight to surgery, Dr. Snibbe explains why movement, strength training, muscle preservation, and lifestyle choices can make a major difference in joint health and recovery. They break down what arthritis actually is, when joint replacement becomes necessary, and why treatments like PRP, hyaluronic acid, and certain regenerative therapies may help some patients delay or avoid surgery. Dr. Snibbe also shares his perspective on stem cells, cortisone injections, hormone support, and the role of protein, creatine, and resistance training in maintaining muscle and bone health. The conversation also explores the powerful connection between stress, sleep, mindset, community, and physical pain, along with newer approaches to recovery that emphasize movement over prolonged immobilization. Dr. Snibbe explains why understanding your diagnosis can reduce fear, when to use ice versus heat, and why a more personalized, human approach to orthopedic care can completely change the healing experience.
