Dear GPs of Australia,

Can you please stop telling patients that are referred to Physiotherapy on an Enhanced Primary Care Plan that their physio consult is “free”? Amongst other things, this will stop patients arguing with my receptionist.

Cheers.

Seriously @belfastairport What a joke of an “International” airport. Sort your security out!

[Ollie Lansell @TRP_Ollie]

Having a support that keeps your patients in a good upright position and falls free environment means you can be more creative and give your patients more of a challenge, the correct practice and achieve more repetitions! It’s all about good practice!

A meta-analysis (Zhong et al., 2017) has shown that 2/3 of disc bulges spontaneously heal on their own. Many of them within a few months. Even though discs sometimes herniate, this does NOT mean they 'slip'. Jarod hall wrote a great blog about this 👉🏻 https://t.co/3tmJG2Qom2

Another bugbear - we label high-value non-operative care 'conservative' which by def = 'averse to change or innovation and holding traditional values'.....its far from this - its innovative, adapted to the individual, demands change and threatens traditional values....

Love the simplicity of this study! Research published earlier this week showed that by simply wearing 2 pairs of socks when exercising or playing sport, reduced overall lower limb injury risk in recreational athletes by 70%! (Gullible et al, 2018)

WONDERFUL INSIGHT FROM PREVIOUSLY DISABLED MAN RE LIFTING TECHNIQUE: "How can something that is so normal and healthy have become so demonised? How do you open peoples minds to the idea that what they know to be true is false? You guys have a hell of a fight on your hands."
