Moving Better With Chiropractic Specialist, Dr. Shawn Dill
DR. SHAWN DILL IS an entrepreneur, a chiropractic specialist and simply someone who is always on the move.
For eight years Dr. Dill practiced in Costa Rica, where along with establishing what many consider to be the largest upper cervical practice in the world, he also authored the law that regulates the practice of chiropractic in the country. Since returning to the United States, Dr. Dill has become a noted authority in his respective trade and is currently the CEO of The Specific Chiropractic Centers — a franchise, which now operates multiple Knee Chest Upper Cervical Specific clinics across the United States.
In essence, Dr. Dill is the real deal.
For someone with a schedule as busy as Shawn Dill, a little extra support here and there is always valuable. And since he found the magic of performance compression socks to help carry him through the day, he’s never looked back. One brand in particular has really kept Dr. Dill moving with confidence.
“I originally heard about Lasso performance socks through a mutual friend who introduced me to Partha [Unnava], the CEO of Lasso. I jumped on a call and in just minutes knew that this was a company that I wanted to be affiliated with,” says Dr. Dill. “Once I got my hands on a pair of socks—the technology, the product itself—blew me away. Then I got my colleagues turned onto them and they just continued to rave about Lasso,” he tells me. “Look, Lasso performance socks make me look really, really good,” chuckles Dr. Dill. “Because I’m able to recommend the socks to my colleagues and they’re able to recommend the socks to their patients and everybody wins. One of the reasons why I’m so attracted to Lasso as a product is because it’s, in essence, a wearable technology.”
Now, when Dill speaks about wearable technology, he isn’t talking about computers or smartphones — it’s their patented compression technology that ultimately sets Lasso performance socks apart from every single other sock on the market, according to Dr. Dill. He emphasizes on this, adding, “What Lasso does is bridge the gap between just a sock and a medical supported sock that is assisting you in your lifestyle. They also are helping you in case you have injuries or other conditions that you might be cautious of.”
These days, Dr. Dill tells me he is no longer in the practice himself, but manages a franchise of chiropractic offices across the United States. Still, outside of his practice, Shawn believes that Lasso socks are an incredible tool for anyone dealing with any sort of circulatory and or stability issue, things like swollen feet and ankles or common foot issues like plantar fasciitis. “While they may not be a fix-all, Lasso socks are a phenomenal starting point. I’ve never heard anybody tell me that there were situations where the notion was contradicted,” he says. “They’re a great addition to anything that you might be doing.”
After some research, one of the biggest benefits of Lasso performance socks, behind their unique, patented compression tech, is the versatility of the sock. It’s an everyday item that boasts the notion that you can both look good and feel good. Dr. Dill agrees, adding, “What I also love about Lasso socks is their versatility. You can wear them as a dress sock, you can wear them for athletic events. I like wearing them just on a day-to-day basis. They have the technology already built in and that helps me move better.”
The simple fact that this is a wearable technology peppered in with a mission to create culture makes these socks wildly unique.
“The very fact that Lasso has been able to put this kind of technology into a wearable sock that looks fashionable is a feat in and of itself! I love the support these socks bring me.”
On this subject, Dr. Dill makes a great point, telling me,“Oftentimes traditional compression socks look like, frankly, compression socks,” he says. “They make it look like something is wrong with you. So the very fact that Lasso has been able to put their technology into a wearable sock that looks fashionable is a feat in and of itself! I love the support these socks bring me.”
As mentioned, Dr. Dill has found many ways to utilize the benefits of Lasso socks in his every day life. “I just really love the compression component of them personally, because it just feels like — as my friend Shane Smith says — tiny little foot hugs all day long!” says Dill with a smile tacked on.
Lasso socks aren’t just for recovery needs. They’re designed to wear every day, whether it’s your busiest day of the week or a relaxing day off. The benefits are always available and always offer an opportunity to move confidently from the ground up. “Listen,” says Dill. “Lasso athletic socks provide massive non-recovery benefits, not only to active people, but also to inactive people.” Adding to this, he tells me, “I also love the mere fact that they have all of this support built in that goes beyond the compression. So you have the compression, but you also have the added support and whether you’re active or not, I feel that Lasso socks are vital components that go well beyond just recovery. This is not a recovery piece of apparel — Lasso socks are something that you should actually be utilizing and wearing on a daily basis.”
In his personal life, Dr. Dill is a big golf fan. He’s found the stability he needs in Lasso athletic socks when teeing up and playing a round. “It is something that I actually can notice a difference in between wearing my Lasso socks and wearing any other type of sock in terms of stability,” explains Dr. Dill. “And a lot of people might say, ‘Well, what do you mean you’re wearing the socks for golf?’ But there is an awful lot of movement that occurs in the ankle joints during the golf swing, plus, not to mention the amount of walking that you do, especially if you’re a walker. The socks are absolutely vital for me in that regard. And like I said earlier, I wear the socks on a daily basis because look, even just being an entrepreneur and working in my business, I feel that it’s important because they give me that stability and the compression I need. As one gets older, there are days that you begin to deal with a swollen ankle or swollen feet. Lasso performance socks help to combat that.”
Closing out, Dr. Shawn Dill hits me with some great knowledge. “You cannot give what you do not have,” he says. “So it’s absolutely critical that we are all successful in our endeavors so that we can share our gifts with more people. And that’s what I love about Lasso.” Speaking in both his own entrepreneurial and personal pursuits, which seem to align right with Lasso’s ethos, he adds, “We need strong business models if we’re going to get Lasso into the hands of every man, woman, and child on the planet, and I love the vision that Lasso holds. I am very excited to be supportive of them and their vision and mission,” says Dr. Dill. “And I look forward to many, many big things to come.”
