@JJames925 My massage therapist says my psoas is really stiff though?

Physical Therapy is flesh physics.

@czuppons This would also be an interesting one to look at in DEA series, because those 95% CI’s look pretty close 🤔

[The Sp⚽️rts Physio @AdamMeakins]

Just a reminder to all clinicians that when a patient tells you their pain is 11/10, or they’re ‘riddled’ with arthritis, or in constant pain 24/7… it often means…

1) Please listen to me
2) I’ve had bad healthcare experiences
3) I don’t know whats going on, or what to do!

Trying to do an updated and short YouTube on Gluteal inhibition. What a messy area. So many strong opinions and such conflicting and unhelpful research. This blog here took me only about 13 years to write https://t.co/aM6HXtD7Xo

Does hop-distance determine your #ReturnToSport decision? You might want to read this blog if so for some extra context... #ACL

physio debates are like comparing Xmas trees. We focus on differences in approaches that are really just tree decorations. Instead of focusing on the tinsel we should recognize that the trunk, branches and needles are the same. We debate ornaments & ignore fundamentals

I forgot that I had built this slide for a lecture in order to help practitioners learn the complex clinical reasoning required to diagnose PFP...

@jwehrerDPT As other have mentioned here, presenting a cohesive whole for lobbying/legislation is the primary reason. I feel Ike I can’t complain about declining reimbursement, direct access laws, etc. if I’m not minimally paying to be a member.

I’m trying to do notes but I just keep going back for another drink. What has our country come to?

[Matthew Plantinga, DPT, CSCS @MattPlantinga]

@jwehrerDPT Hard to justify given the lack of value for your money. May be an eye catcher on a resume but that’s about it. I’ll probably let mine go next cycle as well.

This was how I found the seat next to me while boarding for @FlyFrontier during a pandemic. Can’t even justify the prices anymore.

@RyanDuncanPT Any tips for not feeling like a walking placebo effect?

[Matthew Plantinga, DPT, CSCS @MattPlantinga]

@RyanDuncanPT @MaryvilleU Congrats Ryan!
