Here’s the podcast that over 12,000 listeners have been demanding – physiotherapist Adam Meakins (@TheSportsPhysio)on a number of controversial topics, including: Is diagnostic palpation accurate? Can the sacroiliac joint really be ‘unstable’? How does ‘touch’ in physiotherapy have its therapeutic effect? Adam provides great value on Twitter and on his blog – here you can listen to him in your favourite podcast setting. Adam shares his way of explaining neural pain to patients and that alone is worth the price. He also discusses his popular blogs on ‘5 Least Favourite Shoulder Rehab Exercises’ as well as ‘Top 5 Shoulder Rehab Exercises’. He argues that the key to managing some knee conditions is to manage load and he refers to Scott Dye’s classic ‘envelope of function’ concept. And we close by discussing a couple of figures that have gained great traction in the Twittersphere. You might find them useful in your clinical practice. But it’s a risk on radio – I get that!
