The third episode in this month's focus on CPD brings you a special guest whose course 'Reconciling Biomechanics With Pain Science' has been taught in more than 30 countries across 5 continents - the one & only Gregory Lehman. 'Reconciling Biomechanics With Pain Science' is a practical course designed to provide therapists with a simplified yet strongly evidenced based biomechanical approach to injury & pain management that allows the development of skills that address all areas of the biopsychosocial contributors to the pain experience. It teaches an alternative to the kinesiopathological model of pain & injury but still tries to answer when biomechanics matters. 'Reconciling Biomechanics With Pain Science' is coming to Cork, Ireland on Apr 2nd & 3rd 2022 at Pilates Physio Cork. Full details can be found at https://www.tickettailor.com/events/reconcilingbiomechanicswithpainscience/590774 About Greg Lehman Greg lehman has been in clinical practice for more than 13 years as both a chiropractor and physiotherapist. He has held faculty and research positions conducting biomechanical research into the mechanisms of manual therapy, muscle activation during rehabilitation exercises and sports medicine, publishing more than 20 papers in peer reviewed journals. He has lectured at numerous global conferences on biomechanics and the biopsychosocial model, and his two day 'Reconciling Biomechanics With Pain Science' seminar helps clinicians incorporate best evidence into clinical practice and helps them develop skills to practice in a manner consistent with the biopsychosocial model of care. * * * WARNING: This episode has swearing. Please do not listen if you or those around you are easily offended. Questions & topics discussed include: How much has your course changed since it first came to the UK in 2015 (hosted by host Matt Phillips in his former clinic)? What would you say to a recently qualified soft tissue therapist who has heard that some of the concepts taught during their professional studies is questionable and needs updating? "Poke the Bear, don't hump the s*%t out of it" - This image & message has resonated more than any other amongst health care professionals. What is it saying and why is it so popular? In the 90’s you were learning to be a Chiropractic in Toronto Canada and hearing at that particular school about bio-psycho-social approach. Why has it not become mainstream What's your opinion of manual therapy? Some therapists are reluctant to change because they fear they are going to have to re-learn everything. But that’s not the case, right? You describe manual therapy as a symptom modifier – can you expand on that? Should being able to understand & recognize bias be a fundamental skill for health care providers? Do course attendees need a particular background or knowledge?
