@ShoulderGeek1 @AdamMeakins @AnjuJaggi @theshoulderdoc Hi all, do you have any recommended reading for rehabilitation for isolated anterior capsular repair (b/g recurrent traumatic ant instab)? Or gen advice vs accelerated bankart repair? Struggling to find literature... thanks!

[Brad Neal @DrBradNeal]

@Irish_Physio @FionaWilsonf Don’t we have consensus for the core principles for acute LBP?

1. Education & reassurance
2. Medication
3. Gentle movement

Beyond that:

1. Some may mob; helps some, not all, not harmful
2. Some may soft tissue ; helps some, not all, not harmful

Etc etc

@P_Gamble Hi Paul, enjoyed your blog on the illogic of being data driven - do you recommend any specific papers describing the framework of professional judgement and decision making by Martindale and Collins? thanks in advance!

Your TV unlike your spine can be adjusted. Just like your spine though your TV doesn't get subluxations, osteopathic lesions or "go out"
