Despite advancements in surgical techniques, the recurrence rate of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture after reconstruction remains between 2% and 20%. An increased posterior tibial slope (PTS) is associated with higher ACL rupture and reconstruction failure rates. In conclusion, ACW-HTO combined with ACL reconstruction shows promising long-term outcomes, significantly reducing PTS and improving knee stability and function with an acceptable complication rate.

The 20% Rule: Health, Reputation & Real Growth for Your PT Clinic In this solo episode, Doc Danny Matta shares a simple story with a big lesson: a 67-year-old foundation repair rep drops into a perfect squat and pops back up—proof that health is a choice and momentum. Danny connects this to how PTs can reach the 70% of people who aren't actively searching for help yet, using reputation, relationships, and clear asks—not just ads.
Building Independence & Culture: Inside PHYT Collective with Ashley Speights In this episode, Danny sits down with Ashley Speights, PT Biz coach and founder of PHYT Collective in Washington, D.C. Ashley shares how she built her 4,000 sq ft practice during the pandemic, structured a unique contractor-based collective model, and created a culture of independence, collaboration, and empowerment.

In this timely episode of What's Best For The Patient Is Best For Business, host Jerry Durham is joined by two powerhouse voices in healthcare: Angela Diaz, PT, VP of Market Development at TailorCare, and Dana Strauss, PT, DPT, a physical therapist turned health policy strategist.Recorded in the wake of CMS's monumental 2025 Physician Fee Schedule proposed rule, this conversation is a masterclass in translating complex policy into actionable business strategy. Jerry, Angela, and Dana dissect the new regulations and mandatory models, moving beyond the headlines of reimbursement cuts to uncover the significant opportunities hidden within for forward-thinking physical therapy practices.They break down the new ambulatory specialty model for low back pain, the WISER model aimed at reducing wasteful spending, and the TEAM model holding hospitals accountable for 30-day post-discharge care. The discussion provides a clear roadmap for PTs to pivot from being siloed service providers to becoming indispensable, collaborative partners in a value-based care system.Key Takeaways:• Why the conversion factor is only a small piece of the reimbursement puzzle and how PTs/OTs were inadvertently grouped with specialists, leading to a potential negative impact.• How to leverage data to demonstrate your value to physicians and health systems participating in new mandatory models (like the ambulatory specialty model for low back pain), making you a sought-after partner instead of an ancillary service.• The critical difference between capitation and true value-based care, and why attaching your payment to quality outcomes is the only sustainable path forward.• A practical strategy for engaging referring physicians by focusing on their pain points and asking, "What can I do to help you be successful in this new model?"• Why the future of PT isn't about doing less but about providing the right care at the right time—including phone calls, remote monitoring, and self-care guidance—to improve outcomes and reduce the total cost of care for a population.Tune in for an empowering conversation that will change your perspective from one of uncertainty to one of opportunity, proving that by focusing on collaboration and patient outcomes, you can future-proof your practice and thrive in the new landscape of healthcare.

Send us a textHaving a great interest in mind control, I discovered Jason Christoff at NCI - National Citizens Inquiry - an amazing Canadian people-led group diving into what went wrong during Covid. The present theme and question is Are children safe in Canada? (I spoke on the Flexner Report of 1920 in Edmonton in March 2025. The Flexner Report sabotaged our medical system by making our health care solely allopathic, excluding systems of medicine such as homeopathy, naturopathic medicine, chiropractic, midwifery and traditional osteopathy.) Jason has spoken on the subject of mind control at the US Senate and at the EU, Japanese and Romanian Parliaments. Jason operates an international psychological reprogramming institute where he teaches health professionals and members of the general public how to use positive forms of mind control, to make their lives (and the lives of their patients) better.Jason is set to release his first documentary titled PLANET MIND CONTROLthis fall, 2025. In order to win the battle we're all in today Jason believes that each citizen must educate on the basics, in relation to how mind control works and how to avoid becoming a victim of it.Victimhood is another topic I hope to discuss through this podcast as I regain equilibrium after my husband's death by medical error. To that end my one woman show will start off as a radio play. I hope to have it ready to air by October 2025.This journey of grieving has been intense and I want to thank so many- family, friends, strangers, new friends from Har El, the grief group out at N Van City Library as well as PJ and Beau for almost daily walks. And NCI for hope and strength to get our world on a better course. So much love, so much support has come my way...and I am sooo grateful.Jason grew up in Truro, Nova Scotia so this episode is dedicated to my cherished Maritime sisters and brothers and friends, who are confined by the ridiculous edict to not go into the woods today.

Matt and Allie are back to discuss this month's clinical corner article. Matt starts with his question for students regarding whether or not prehab is effective for patients with FAI (Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome) having a hip arthroscopy. Allie interjects to have Matt further explain these terms and what the symptoms look like for this syndrome. Getting into the article- a panel of multidisciplinary experts reviewed the evidence on prehab, who eventually came to consensus of 8 recommendations to include in a patients' prehabilitation. Hear what each recommendation is, how it applies to patients that have FAI, and how PTs can customize treatments for these patients. Hear more on how anxiety and expectation play a huge part in whether or not patients buy-in to prehab.

This episode explores how physical and occupational therapists can integrate Parkinson's disease–specific functional training into everyday clinical practice. Host J.J. Mowder-Tinney is joined by Dr. Becky Farley, neuroscientist, physical therapist, and founder of Parkinson Wellness Recovery (PWR!), to discuss the science and art of applying exercise as medicine for people living with Parkinson's disease. Together, they break down the core motor control building blocks—such as antigravity extension, weight shifting, axial mobility, and transitions—and demonstrate how these fundamentals can be retrained and progressed to improve real-world function. Listeners will learn practical strategies to make exercise goal-directed, challenging, and fun, while also addressing cognitive and emotional barriers that often limit mobility. Through case examples and clinical pearls, this conversation highlights how to design interventions that feel more like sport than therapy, empowering patients to move with greater ease and confidence. Ideal for PTs and OTs working in rehabilitation or community-based settings, this episode offers actionable insights you can bring directly to your practiceLearning ObjectivesAnalyze the fundamental motor control building blocks that support functional mobility training as a foundational intervention for people with Parkinson's disease (PwPD)Apply evidence-informed strategies to target key motor control fundamentals when designing PD-specific functional mobility trainingSolve patient case scenarios to develop individualized plans of care that integrate PD-specific functional mobility training across rehabilitation and community settingsTimestamps(00:01:09) Introduction to guest(00:04:20) The importance of functional mobility training(00:06:38) Understanding Parkinson's symptoms and their impact(00:10:25) Core fundamentals of movement in therapy(00:14:50) Recapping fundamental building blocks of movement(00:25:20) Common impairments in Parkinson's beyond rigidity and bradykinesia(00:28:55) Research insights on essential ingredients for rehabilitation(00:32:40) Defining FUN-ctional exercise(00:36:04) Practical examples of motor-cognitive challenges(00:41:43) Translating research into day-to-day clinical practice(00:43:07) Creative case example: turning and freezing of gait(00:49:22) Engaging care partners for home and community carryover(00:51:14) Three actionable clinical takeaways(00:54:30) Superpower question and closing thoughtsNeuro Navigators is brought to you by Medbridge.

In this episode of What's Best For The Patient Is Best For Business, Jerry sits down with Dr. Todd Norwood, Senior Director of Clinical Services at Omada Health, a virtual care platform specializing in chronic disease management. With a background as a board-certified orthopedic and sports physical therapist, Todd shares his journey from traditional clinical practice to the forefront of digital health innovation—including his role in co-founding Physera, a telehealth startup later acquired by Omada.Jerry and Todd dive deep into the critical role of patient engagement in modern healthcare, exploring how technology can enhance outcomes while maintaining high-quality care. Todd breaks down key insights from his research, revealing how simple actions—like regular messaging between visits—can compound into significant improvements in patient adherence and clinical results. They also discuss the importance of data in proving value, the evolving landscape of telehealth, and why physical therapists must embrace digital tools to stay ahead.Key Takeaways:• Patient engagement drives outcomes: Each additional weekly message from a PT increases patient compliance with home exercises by 11%—and these effects multiply over time.• Early intervention matters: Starting care within 24 hours of sign-up boosts long-term engagement and success.• Tech is just a tool: The real skill lies in knowing when and how to use digital platforms to enhance—not replace—clinical expertise.• Data is non-negotiable: Accreditation and payer trust require proof of impact. PTs must measure outcomes rigorously to demonstrate their value.• The patient's core needs: Clear diagnosis, prognosis, and defined roles (patient + provider) are the foundation of trust and retention.Todd's research underscores a powerful truth: what's best for patients is best for business. Whether you're a clinician, practice owner, or healthcare innovator, this episode is packed with actionable insights to elevate care delivery in the digital age.

Andrew Weatherall's first official posthumous mix. The only B2B DJ Harvey ever agreed to. Six hours at Trouw. The rarest of rare for RA.1000: this one's special. When mulling which direction to go in for RA's 1000th mix celebrations, many options came to mind. Some shadowy character 2-stepping around the fringe of our collective consciousness? An impossible-level IDM icon? All tempting. But, ultimately, we are a DJ-forward publication and this is a DJ mix series. It felt truer to the history of the RA Podcast to release deep vault material from a time when the world of niche records felt different, tighter, more discrete. The fourth-longest mix in the RA Podcast's history is an unrepeatable marathon set recorded in 2012 at a superclub that no longer exists. (2012, incidentally, is farther away from 2025 than 2012 was from 2000; if we have to clock it, so do you.) It's the coming together of one British icon who passed away in 2020, and another whose time on the road has scaled back considerably as of late. DJ Harvey agreed to exactly one b2b set in his life: this one, with Andrew Weatherall. The night took place at Trouw, an Amsterdam club that was already legendary before closing its doors in 2015, as part of RA VS, a party anchored around start-to-close combinations. Harvey was at the peak of an immense second act, which dovetailed with a parallel disco revival that dominated clubs for years. Weatherall, with infinite brownie points stockpiled from the '90s, remained everyone's favourite debonair psychonaut. Although a serial collaborator in the studio, he didn't actually play too many b2b sets either, preferring to sail the open seas by his own navigation. We're grateful that all relevant parties in both camps gave their blessing for us to let this loose and show what happened when their worlds collided. What follows is 385 minutes of arpeggiated chug and slow-cresting climaxes, chronicling a moment when the resting heart rate of dance floors plunged lower than potentially any comparable point in the 21st century. If you've got time to spare, a fun side game is sussing out who plays what. Take the goosebumps-inducing slide into a disco-dub cover of Echo & the Bunnymen's "The Killing Moon"? Smart money's on Weatherall. Exuberant EQ'ing of the comically overripe bass on The Isley Brothers' "Live It Up, Pts. 1 & 2"? Gotta be Harvey. As for the low 'n slow, lightly spangled house that was all the rage in the early 2010s (think Maxxi Soundsystem, Disco Bloodbath, Rub & Tug, C.O.M.B.I. and Full Pupp), it's anyone's guess. The pair putter around the 100 BPM range for so long that nudging up to 127 by the double encore feels practically like flooring it down the highway. When we kicked off our RA.1000 campaign, we outlined a few goals: tick off a handful of long-awaited dream guests, honour architects who shaped the world around us and deliver recordings you truly can't hear anywhere else. We sought to render an accurate picture of DJ culture in 2025 for posterity, and get arms around some of the key storylines since we went 5 for RA.500. DJing and the mythology around it has undergone a quantum leap since 2012, let alone 2006, 1996 or 1989. It's a scarcely-recognisable scene. For those of us who were kicking around in the former, there's a creeping melancholy that our prime is fast becoming a matter of historical record. The killing moon really did come too soon. Yet a sense of accomplishment is bundled within that melancholy. Appreciation, too. 1000 episodes is great innings, and we're thankful for every contributor and facilitator who built this series, week by week, mix by mix.

Send us a textThe deep healing that can occur through the Expressive Arts is only beginning to be acknowledged. In this episode I speak with solo show coach Jessica Lynn Johnston. She was my acting coach and director in my last solo show, Hidden. (See heatherherington.com for review).Writing my novel Flawed was lifesaving when I felt burn out from treating sexual abuse survivors as well as treating PTSD, addiction, autoimmune and so on for so many years. It allowed me to expresss emotion through my thoughts and ideas, helping me discard stress through creativity. And I kept writing whether it was the librettos fro Avi and my musicals or radio plays, essays and finally the books, Surviving a Viral Pandemic through the lens of a naturopathic medical doctor and Transforming Trauma, a drugless and creative path to healing PTS and ACE. But for me performing solo shows has been the pinnacle. With Avi writing my tunes and singing them on stage while acting out my own sexual assault and embodying characters that supported my emotional recovery generated a healing so profound that I was actually shocked. And now years later I am creating a show about my late husband Avi Noam Gross who died from hospital error. And so with my acute grieving having subsided I am excited to bring my workshop back. Originally a retreat and called Moving the Pelvis to Healing, I am now naming it, Transforming Trauma through the Expressive Arts. And this is why Jessica was a good person to interview as she has helped thousands of people, teaching them, coaching them, aiding them in transcending major bumps in their lives. You can reach her at SoaringSoloArtist@gmail.com or visit her website SoaringSoloStudios.com.For information on my workshop to be held on the North Shore of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, please email drheatherworkshops@icloud.com,May you have a happy day! xoSupport the show#Creativity in Healing #Medicalfreedom #Canadaontheedge #HealthCanada #CanadaLaw #TrueHope #truth #apocaloptimist #transformingtrauma #grief #grievingdeeply #homeopathy #loveheals #naturopathicmedicine #druglessmedicine #energymedicine #expressiveartsheal #empoweredvoices #knowledgeispower #singtohealthyroids #erasetoxiclegacies #peaceispossibleBooks: Transforming Trauma, a drugless and creative path to healing PTS and ACE is published by Hammersmith Books is available globally.

Episode Summary: What if climate change isn't primarily about science, but religion?Darrell Harrison, co-author of A Biblical Theology of Climate Change, makes the provocative case that climate alarmism is more than politics or science—it's a full-fledged worldview rooted in modern pantheism. He exposes how this ideology treats Earth as a deity. This deity demands radical sacrifice and drives policies that often harm both people and the very planet they claim to protect.We hope this conversation challenges you to approach environmental concerns not with fear or uncritical submission, but with truth, wisdom, and a biblical framework. Ideas really do have consequences. Understanding the worldviews behind today's most pervasive ideas will give you the clarity and confidence to exchange illusion for reality and respond faithfully to even the most controversial issues. Who is Disciple Nations Alliance (DNA)? Since 1997, DNA's mission has been to equip followers of Jesus around the globe with a biblical worldview, empowering them to build flourishing families, communities, and nations.
