Rotator cuff injuries are often given a bad wrap and are frequently mismanaged throughout the medical system.

    One of the most common questions we get at P3 is “do I need a referral before I see you?” Direct access to physical therapy services is now available in every state, BUT with specific provisions depending on the state. This was a huge political accomplishment in the world of physical therapy as it allows patients access to services without jumping through the crazy hoops of the healthcare system. In this podcast we discuss the research behind choosing physical therapy BEFORE going the traditional route of (family doc → imaging/medication → rest → surgeon → injection/surgery → maybe PT) for muscle, tendon, ligament, bone, nerve or joint pain. We discuss the research behind MAJOR cost savings for the patient, improved recovery and outcomes, and why seeing the right provider early in the process can make all the difference. Not to mention having conservative treatment saves injections, painkillers and surgery as a LAST RESORT! This podcast episode is all about why choosing physical therapy for your orthopedic problem should be your first option! We promise you won't be disappointed!

    Episode 9: Straight-Talk Physio Podcast --- What Is Tendinitis? A Patient's Guide To Diagnosis and Self Treatment (2020) Tendinitis is one of the most common diagnoses physical therapists treat in the clinic. But is tendinitis really all that common? The word “tendinitis” is used very loosely by medical professionals outside of the orthopedic specialties. The misdiagnosis and misuse of the term tendinitis then leads improper treatment with injections, unnecessary medications and long periods of rest that make the injury persist even longer. In some cases, delayed treatment and misdiagnosis of tendonitis may lead to a partial or full thickness tear in tendons. Physical therapy should be the first stop in treating and managing tendon pain and we are going to tell you why. In this podcast episode we discuss what a tendon is, what happens to tendon structure when a tendon is in pain, common places of the body that experience tendinitis, how we know we the pain is TRULY tendinitis, and how we go about treating this type of pain in the clinic.

When most people think of low back pain, the first thought that comes to mind is a disc herniation or a disc bulge. People tend to associate disc herniations with surgery, often because many know of a family member or friend who went through a surgical procedure with little to no relief. Disc herniations are indeed one of the most common causes of low back pain, but what if we told you that very few patients actually NEED surgery? Physical therapy should be the first stop in treating and managing low back pain and we are going to tell you why. In this podcast episode we discuss the anatomy of a disc herniation, who is most likely to herniate a disc, why the pain is much worse than a simple muscle sprain/strain, the symptoms of disc pain and the processes we use to treat and get rid of pain.

In order to treat and manage pain effectively, it's important to find the “cause” of the problem to reach a long term solution. The “cause” of pain drives the problem and the “cause” is rarely where the problem is felt. This is called referred pain and it keeps patients and providers at a loss for solving the root of the problem. In this podcast episode we discuss the definition of referred pain, common pain referral patterns we see in orthopedic conditions and from organs that keep many providers guessing and how a detailed assessment makes ALL THE DIFFERENCE in spotting these referral patterns.
