In Folge #71 des PhysioBib Podcasts, hatten wir Dr. Jean-Pascal Grenier zu Gast. Er ist Physiotherapeut und Arzt, und während er gerade an seinem Facharzt für Innere Medizin arbeitet, publiziert er weiterhin wissenschaftliche Artikel im Kontext der Physiotherapie. Im Februar diesen Jahres hat er einen Artikel mit dem Titel „ein kritischer Review der Rolle von Manueller Therapie in der Behandlung von Menschen mit Rückenschmerzen“ im Journal of Manual and Manipulative Therapy veröffentlicht und da konnten wir es uns natürlich nicht nehmen lassen ihn umgehend in unseren Podcast einzuladen. Wir sprechen also mal wieder über die Rolle von Manueller Therapie in der Schmerztherapie, ob und wie MT wirkt und wie wir sie in eine Patient*innen zentrierte Therapie integrieren können. JP hat uns das Thema hier wie ich finde extrem gut zusammengefasst und mit Sicherheit könnt ihr hier aus der Folge wieder einige mitnehmen.

What if you could gain insights from a renowned physical therapy professor and learn about the evolution of physiotherapy practice and research? Join us in a riveting conversation with Chad Cook, a professor at Duke University and the director of the Center of Excellence in Manual and Manipulative Therapy. As we take a stroll down memory lane, we discuss the significant growth of science and evidence-based practice over the past 33 years, the vital role of patients in recovery, and the impact of various interventions throughout the years.We also tackle the influence of social media on the dissemination of research and its effect on physical therapy practice. Discover how the character of the researcher or presenter shapes people's perception of the content, and the ongoing debate about manual therapy. We'll also delve into the importance of purposeful skepticism, clinical equipoise, and the challenges of conducting research.Lastly, we explore the significance of capturing patient voice in clinical research, the bio-psychosocial factors, and psychologically informed care. Chad shares his thoughts on the Proteus Phenomenon, the importance of the clinician-patient relationship, and some of his current research projects. Don't miss out on this fascinating discussion as we uncover the complexity of patient-driven approaches and the potential of improving outcomes.*********************************************************************

Brandy Lang worked as a morse code operator and then as a C-130 loadmaster while serving in the U.S. Air Force. Her first experience with concussion aftercare was in basic training while performing maneuvers on the obstacle course when she was unintentionally kicked in the head by another service member. Brandy fell from the obstacle into a deep pool of water hitting the back of her head on the platform on the way down. The head trauma left her shocked, confused, and unable to swim to the top until the safety quickly jumped in to assist her out of the water. In the aftermath, Brandy found, for a while, that she couldn't understand what people were saying around her and experienced a great deal of lethargy, dizziness, and headaches. On several occasions, she nearly fell asleep while running in formation! Unfortunately, the VA medical doctor didn't know at the time how to help her get rid of her symptoms so she thought she was just going to feel this way the rest of her life. Luckily, that's not the reality of mild traumatic brain injuries aka concussions. Brandy has always been interested in exercise and overall fitness, which is, in part what helped her recover from her TBI's, she just didn't know it then. After the military, she returned to school, receiving a bachelor's degree in Biology from UNC Charlotte, and then attended Winston Salem State University for her master's degree in Physical Therapy. Brandy is a certified personal trainer with the National Academy of Sports Medicine, an expert Myofascial Release Therapist, certified in dry needling with the American Academy of Manipulative Therapy, and has continued education in applied nutrition for the last nine years. After rehabilitating herself from five concussions, the last one in 2017, her mission is to provide the most comprehensive immersive virtual rehab program for the brain and body for veterans, non-veterans, and first responders. She feels blessed to have met her husband while they were both serving in the military and together, they have an amazing son. In her spare time, she enjoys hiking with her family, playing baseball with her son, and woodworking. https://www.brandy@visionarypt.comSupport the show

Body, Brain & Pain: Community Healing with Two Physical Therapists
Join Erin and Michelle as they cover another topic contributing to the pain epidemic in our world - medical imaging. We've all likely heard a story of someone having an x-ray or MRI and being told, “you have the spine of a 80 year old” or “this is the worst thing I've seen, I can't believe you're not in more pain”. This type of language is harmful and can actually impact an individual's progress and prognosis! Imaging is an important tool in healthcare to prevent and diagnose serious disease or pathology, but it can be overused and used in the wrong situations which can sometimes lead to poorer outcomes for someone. Michelle and Erin want you to be aware of when medical imaging is helpful and when it might not be necessary, so that you can continue to be the best advocate for yourself.
