The RESTORE trial just out in the 'The Lancet'. This trial brings hope to people disabled by low back pain. It puts the patient in the drivers seat, with skills to self-manage...it works, it save $$ and they like it. Massive team effort led by Peter Kent. https://t.co/hC5zYESWPB

@GuruAnaerobic I've seen this a lot runners. Most elite and good club athletes overtrain in some way. Usually volume related.

@DrJN_SportsMed Awesome shoes. Go heavy or go home with those bad boys 😂. Placebo alone should've earned you some PBs 💪

One of the more tissue-specific reasons we prescribe exercise. 'Turning load into repair'. Great stuff!

[Professor Karim Khan @ProfKarimKhan]

I am often asked: 'How does loading work to repair tissues?" Free from 2009. Good starter if you aren't familiar with mechanotherapy. Turning loading into repair. https://t.co/ve6LLiBdqU

For those people interested in the findings of my thesis. Study 1. https://t.co/Vj4yaqdvCF

💥Imaging-defined Intra-articular hip findings are common in people without pain
💥1 in 2 people without pain will have a “labral tear” on MRI

Cranial Nerves

1/
Cranial nerve testing should be within the skill set of ALL clinicians

Just as UL, LL & UMN neurological testing are.

There is a strong suggestion that history and education have not prepared PT’s well for this.

BLOOD TESTS: WHAT ARE WE MEASURING??! 🤷🏻‍♀️
